Re: Did your BGP crash today?

Just out of curiosity, at what point will we as operators rise up against the ivory tower protocol designers at the IETF and demand that they add a mechanism to not bring down the entire BGP session because of a single malformed attribute?

there is a problem underlying this. bgp is not tlv. so once a parser detects an error, it can not *rigorously* know where to take up again. randy
