Re: Generation of traffic in "settled" peering arrangement
Actually the distribution problem is pretty simple. In your forwarding table add a per-prefix cost. The cost is expressed in terms of tokens. The tokens are deducted from a token bucket. The number of tokens in the bucket (depth and refresh-rate) is arrived at by some engineering or sales process. This polices MEDs nicely. Sean.

Hm. Aggregation breaks that scheme nicely. Absense of aggregation breaks routing nicely. --vadim
