Hi John,
Thanks for your comments. Your suggestions for the Initiation
Message look like good stuff. I would like to encourage the WG to
brainstorm whether there are any other items to add to the laundry
list (without boiling the ocean, please).
Has anyone proposed BMP extension which would fall into "boiling the
ocean" category ?
I'd also like to encourage
any interested party including you to Send Text if you've a mind to.
I hope you still have the diff for my proposal ...
The next hop thing is interesting, but I have to ask: can't you pull
it out of the IGP already?
Not possible across IGP areas/levels.
However perhaps it would be interesting to discuss pros/cons of using
either:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gredler-bgp-te-01
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-varlashkin-bgp-nh-cost-02
Tim - do you think using any of those would not be feasible for you ? If
not I am personally fine to extend BMP to carry next hop metrics.
Of course Stephen will say that it requires to run BGP on the linux host
and is a dangerous thing, but is that really an issue ?
Best regards,
R.
