Hi Mantav, hi all,
thank you for the information. They help me to get a better overview
about the current status of the addpath capability. Mantav, while you
might be right that there was a want of interest regarding addpath in
the past, I think this does not match the current situation. For my
studies I cooperate with Deutsche Telekom AG, who is also very
interested in a support of addpath in their routers. So, interest at
this point seems to be abundant.
Well, you ask what I have in mind: I made some analysis regarding both
full-mesh iBGP and iBGP Route Reflection to study new approaches
avoiding routing anomalies. One approach requires the advertisement of
additional routing information as described by the Addpath-capability.
Greetings
Uli
