A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories. This draft is a work item of the Inter-Domain Routing Working 
Group of the IETF.                                                         

       Title     : Operational Experience with the BGP-4 protocol          
       Author(s) : P. Traina
       Filename  : draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-op-experience-00.txt
       Pages     : 9

The purpose of this memo is to document how the requirements for advancing 
a routing protocol to Full Standard have been satisfied by Border Gateway 
Protocol version 4 (BGP-4).  This report documents experience with BGP.  
This is the second of two reports on the BGP protocol.  As required by the 
Internet Activities Board (IAB) and the Internet Engineering Steering Group
(IESG), the first report will present a performance analysis of the BGP 
protocol.                                                              

The remaining sections of this memo document how BGP satisfies General 
Requirements specified in Section 3.0, as well as Requirements for Draft 
Standard specified in Section 6.0 of the "Internet Routing Protocol 
Standardization Criteria" document [1].  
                                  
This report is based on the initial work of Peter Lothberg (STUPI), Andrew 
Partan (UUNET), and several others.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-op-experience-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
      MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
      feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
      command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
      a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
      exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
      "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
      up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
      how to manipulate these messages.
							
For questions, please mail to [e-mail].
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
