Incidentally, I'm also down if my edge routers are down.

Reliability and redundancy. If all your route reflectors go down,
your entire network is down. This is assuming you're using BGP for
internal subnet distribution, and using OSPF only for the mesh of
links between routers (which is IMO the most reliable setup.) We had
two dedicated routers in different physical locations that did nothing
but that.

I've been using my edge routers as route reflectors. Can someone
fill me in on what I would gain by using a dedicated box for that
purpose? It would be easy enough to change, but I'm not sure why I
would.
Thanks,
Adam
