Community: Should one filter these announcements? Why?
Umm... because if you filter the /24s you will remove 58K of 95K, or some 61%. I'm *sure* that having a routing table 40% of the original size will help the next time you have a BGP flap. Your mileage may vary, depending on the actual amount of improvement obtainable by proper aggregation and/or filtering.
Exodus: Don't you care? Why should they?
Umm.. because urinating in the swimming pool tends to irritate the other people at the pool party? Or because if *everybody* acts that way, you get a Really Dirty swimming pool? -- Valdis Kletnieks Operating Systems Analyst Virginia Tech
