That seems to leave open the possibility that an aggregated route (which is by definition "unknown") would be rejected. Assuming that the various separate routes that were aggregated together never reached this particular router, the result would be a black hole. At the least, it seems that this should be mentioned, even if it is an intentional possibility. > 5.

OK, but shouldn't a previously "valid" route be downgraded to "unknown" after the lifetime expires and until the validity has been re-tested?
