I suspect the right thing to do is to ask why soBGP and sBGP have failed? Or maybe, jut maybe, because we've never had the tools to deploy it.
actually, we had a small workshop with sbgp tools at the last eugene nanog. perhaps it's time for another? bill, can you host at he next nanog, as it is on your turf?
sure... point me in the right direction :)
but, of course, for real deployment, those tools, built for *bsd and linux, would limit initial deployment to those running pc-based routers. to go futher, we would need support from juniper and other vendors.
yes... but it is possible to get the ISP engineering crews to "kick the tyres" w/ generic platforms.
i receive a bgp announcement from a new peer, but the announcement was originated two weeks ago (shockers! a stable route); was the asserted path to my new peer valid when the announcement was originated two weeks ago? once your mind starts down such paranoid paths, the void opens before one's eyes.
surrender!
