The IPV4_UNICAST_NLRI header is shown below. The Prefix Length
and Prefix fields are encoded in the same manner as the BGP
NLRI field.
If this header is specifically for IPv4, why is the Prefix field not
simply 4 bytes?
Initial guess: depending on the prefix length, only the first few bytes
are saved? (e.g. only the first 3 bytes for a /17-/24)
Perhaps this should be mentioned in the text.
Yes, and it is also consistent with the BGP standard. I'll mention
it in the text.
