A systemic vulnerability of the Border Gateway Protocol routing
system, known as "route leaks", has received significant attention in
recent years.  Frequent incidents that result in significant
disruptions to Internet routing are labeled route leaks, but to date
a common definition of the term has been lacking.  This document
provides a working definition of route leaks while keeping in mind
the real occurrences that have received significant attention.
Further, this document attempts to enumerate (though not
exhaustively) different types of route leaks based on observed events
on the Internet.  The aim is to provide a taxonomy that covers
several forms of route leaks that have been observed and are of
concern to the Internet user community as well as the network
operator community.

This document is a product of the Global Routing Operations Working Group of the IETF.
