I didn't say I disliked it. I said that I disliked intermediate ASNs manipulating the values an originating AS configured, because it has system wide implications and could impact things that were expressly intended by the originator of the route. As a matter of fact, a mandatory transitive attribute provides a nice capability for an operator to influence ingress traffic from upstream ASes multiple hops away -- and I certainly have realized utility from that in the past. -danny _______________________________________________ sidr mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sidr
