Hi Oli, That's sounds fantastic.
I will give that a go and report back.

But have you thought about orignating the aggregates you advertise to the Internet (and customers) via some central routers in your core, for example some RRs, instead of on the edge(s)? This way you will never advertise them in case your edge devices become isolated (which, if I read you correctly, is the purpose of this exercise?). If you chose this approach, you might also want to advertise these aggregates with a special next-hop (like a private 10.1.1.1), and add a static null0 to 10.1.1.1/32 on all your BGP routers. Then every router seeing the aggregate will automatically create a Null0 and will drop all packets to unallocated address space within these aggregates as soon as it enters your network? oli -- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
