Hi all,

It seems we have some consensus to work on the DC case first. Then we can start to identify the set of requirements of BGP auto-conf for using BGP as the underlay protocol in DC.

I try to make an initial list requirement as below. Some of the requirements may be optional, and some may be missing. Any comment

EBGP using connected-interface address
EBGP using loopback address
ECMP
Validation of allowed peers
Liveness detection
Supported address family for session setup: IPv4, IPv6
Authentication
...

Please share your opinions about this list.

Best regards,
Jie
