Christopher,

I have to admit that i am not aware of the ongoing work on sidrops, so
i may lack the needed background, but this draft only suggests to
re-advertise all the prefixes. No matter what.
Am i wrong? In that case i apologize.

About the forged AS_PATHs: why is this important only when it comes to IXPs?

Regards
