+1 to Russ's comments in prior email. > 3. BGP L3VPN sessions: BGP sends the routes from a bunch of VRFs (RIBs) over > a single BGP session. BGP L3VPN is a specific use-case. The RIB modeling avoid protocol specific modeling. Also we are not trying to replicate BGP here. So what is modeled here is the ability to inject routes into a bunch of tables (and the tables can be contained in routing-instances…aka VRFs). > 4.
