COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a non-blocking comment related to the characterization of the
unexpected traffic flows (and a nit).

Section 6. (Security Considerations)  Throughout the document the
unexpected traffic flows were characterized as potential policy
violations, not as routing security issues as is done here.  I know that
the text has gone around the point of malicious intent (or not) before,
but I think that if you’re going to mention that it could be a "potential
routing security issue”, then you should say something more about it
(even if it is the result of non-malicious intent) — or just leave it at
policy violations.


Nit:

The example in Section 2.2.1. (Unexpected traffic flows caused by
remotely triggered filtering of more specific prefixes) didn’t look good
to me at first..then I re-read the text until I discovered that the other
ASes (including 64505) are peering with both 64502 and 64503.  Because of
how Figure 4 is drawn, it looks like 64505 is only connected to 64502.  
Maybe centering that AS will avoid confusion.
