That was suggested by the WG during the -00 go-round, and the authors did discuss it when working on the -01 version. Our conclusion was that although we're doing something similar it's not the same and the MRT messages as defined aren't a perfect fit.

Thanks,

Hi,

I appreciate this job but:
Is BMP a kind of MRT dump [1] (only BGP) over TCP? Could BMP to use the same
MRT format?

GROW folks,

I'll be presenting draft-scudder-bmp-01 ("BGP Monitoring Protocol")
at the meeting in Minneapolis.  Long-time GROW fans may remember
that the WG requested to make the -00 version a WG document way back
in 2005.  It turned out that there were some major implementation
hurdles with the draft as written and it became moribund and never
did get issued as draft-ietf-grow.

Fast forward to present, there's been significant renewed interest
so we've dusted off the draft and modified the mechanism to make it
more implementor-friendly.  I'm hoping that the WG would still,
after the long hiatus, like to adopt the draft.

Since I missed the submission cutoff, a copy of the draft is
attached for those who'd like to (please!) look at it before the
meeting.  Your comments are welcome before, during or after the
meeting.

--John
