This is a category error: we don't depend on the Update message to determine
whether an attached node is a client or peer because client isn't
an important concept in RELOAD. Rather, the rules cause peers to treat
adjacencies
correctly whether they are peers, clients, or peers who haven't
completed the join
process yet. There is no need for a peer to detect or remember whether an
adjacency is a client or peer.
