Who would want to reset a BGP that will come back up in 30-90 seconds when you can packet an entire router off the 'Net easier, more quickly, and for longer a period?
+1 Actually, when you have lot of MD5 BGP session coming up at the same time (a connection to internet exchanges went up), you have longer convergence time because of higher cpu load. MD5 offers no security advantages and in some cases it causes more downtime by slowing down convergence. -- Grzegorz Janoszka
