I want to offer some caveats here. Some implementations run BMP in "mirror" mode, some in monitor mode. Both are subject to loss or state compression. This may be perfectly fine since iBGP itself will suffer from state compression. I mention it merely because some expectations of MRT use are that there's perfect packet mirroring. -- Jeff _______________________________________________ GROW mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/grow
