As others have pointed out, that's harder to do, but there's a different reason it may not be desireable. If a peer sets a limit to tear down the session with no automatic reset, forcing a call to their NOC to get a human to reset it then it may be advantageous to set your side to tear down at N-1 prefixes. That way you can insure restoration at the speed of your NOC, and not at the speed of your peer's. -- Leo Bicknell - [email protected] PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
