Hi Gert,

Sure you can say that this is implementation detail ... but if you design
protocol right implementation becomes much easier.

Q:

Let's consider a scenario that RS client has a view with some bgp policy.
Now this client is using 1500 mtu lan and 9k mtu lan for ipv4 connectivity
via ix.

As reachability to next hops may be different for each lan are we going to
have two sessions of new safi between RS and said client ? Or are we in
this case going to put such client into two different contexts on RS ?

Cheers
R.

It's an implemention decision on whether the RS sees this as global
or per-client thing.

Since RSs already today do many things in ways the original BGP specs
did not envision (like, per-client bestpath calculation) doing this
particular one globally does not sound (as said before) like the most
reasonable implementation decision.

OTOH, if the draft had a few more words on this (like, "It is RECOMMENDED
that next-hop reachability is considered a per-client value.  A route-server
MAY decide that a given next-hop should not be considered anymore for
any client if more than a configurable threshold of clients report
unreachability.") it would help to de-confuse readers.
