Sorry... this was poorly worded. We did not actually tear down the BGP sessions. I should have placed quotes around "BGP session". What we did was virtually nuked the "view" in the RS of the pairwise peering thus forcing a BGP withdrawal to the effected peers of the RS and hopefully leaving only valid third-party views intact. Again, the greatest problem was detection and modeling. -- /*=================[ Jake Khuon <[email protected]> ]=================+ | Packet Plumber, Network Engineers /| / [~ [~ |) | | -------- | | for Effective Bandwidth Utilisation / |/ [_ [_ |) |_| NETWORKS | +==================================================================*/
