Hello Donatas, 

In FRR, profiles are a way of toggling mechanism but not all vendors implementations works the same way (e.g. toggling capability or its negotiation specifically). Anyway it is just a suggestion, not a crucial point.

Hello,

yes, it's risky and shouldn't be toggled by default, but in data center environments where you have full control, it's very handy. For instance in FRR has a few modes to operate like traditional and datacenter. By having datacenter profile enabled, it's safe enough to have this capability, IMO. Or as you suggested, just an additional knob for configuring this is considered as well.

An implementation warning should be added for vendors/code developers not to enable this capability by default. Enabling such a functionality by default might result in your neighbors knowing your BGP implementation & its version, which might contain security risks.
