MAY not, so it's a local option. This draft allows for two modes of
operation (at least), one where the two routes can arrive on two
different AS border routers, and one where they must arrive on the same
AS border router. The second case is just like filtering the longer
prefix at the inbound AS border router, the first keeps optimal exit
points out of the local AS, while removing information once it doesn't
matter to the flow of traffic.
