Re: routing meltdown

Perhaps "policies, procedures & data" is a better word than "protocols" used in the generic sense. I want to route things differently based on the time of day, whether or not a particular network is seeing heavy traffic, and what my horoscope said today. I can implement this much more easily on a workstation where I have source code than I can convince Cisco to implement it.

So, it seems that using route servers would have no impact wrt to removing "complex routing protocols from routers".
