Does anybody have\had experience with BGP announces containing AS 0 in AS path? I know that AS 0 is reserved by IANA, but still, is it possible to receive such announce messages?
After 3 decades in this business, I can make two predictions:
1) Somebody has managed to fat-finger something and announced AS0 at some point.
2) At least one vendor's gear promptly committed seppuku *after* passing the broken announcement on to its neighbors.
Those aren't predictions, they're statistically certain observations. :-) Regards, -drc
