how many folk even have md5 auth turned on their bgp peering sessions? How much kerosine can MD5 withstand exactly?
folk may want to read rfc 2385. better measures would likely be appreciated.
When a BGP router loses power, it takes minutes for the peer on the other side of the connection to notice something is wrong and reroute the traffic.
as i do not see this in rfc 1771 or draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-1[23].txt, i suspect that this is implementation specific. randy
