I used to be a quality control engineer in my career, so I have a question to ask from the perspective of a QC guy: what is the Best Practice for minimizing, if not totally preventing, this sort of problem? Is there a "cookbook" answer to this? (I only run edge networks now, and don't have BGP to worry about. If my current $dayjob goes away -- they all do -- I might have to get back into the BGP game, so this is not an idle query.) Somehow "just be careful and clueful" isn't the right answer.
