Greetings,

As a network operator we often don’t know if our ISPs are accepting the routes we send to them.  This makes it difficult at times for operators to debug things.  This is a first stab at a draft to try and propose a method to have the remote device echo back some route counts (and possibly NLRI) that were both accepted and rejected by the remote speaker.

It’s got a few things that I know need to be fixed at minimum, but I wanted to share this more broadly now.

I’m interested in feedback and ready to accept your arrows.

- Jared
