Hi!

The 'BGP Persistent Route Oscillation Solutions' draft has been stable
for quite some time; here's the latest version (no changes, just a
refresh):
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-walton-bgp-route-oscillation-stop-04

I would like to request that this draft become a WG item.

As a reminder, I included the abstract below.

Thanks!!

Alvaro.


Abstract

   In this document we present two sets of paths for an address prefix
   that can be advertised by a BGP route reflector or confederation ASBR
   to eliminate the MED-induced route oscillations in a network.  The
   first set involves all the available paths, and would achieve the
   same routing consistency as the full IBGP mesh.  The second set,
   which is a subset of the first one, involves the neighbor-AS based
   Group Best Paths, and would be sufficient to eliminate the MED-
   induced route oscillations (subject to certain commonly adopted
   topological constrains).
