Dear Authors,

I read your draft and sorry to say do not have good news.

1)

First you break IBGP rule from base BGP spec. It is pretty standard that
controllers distribute information via IBGP and with the help of RRs. Only
RRs can send information received over IBGP to other IBGP peers.

In your case it is hard to assume that all NEs are RRs. It is also hard to
assume that always multiple controllers from the same controller cluster
will be connecting to the same RRs.

2)

The best solution to your problem is to have two independent controller
clusters. When fatal intra-cluster failures occur all cluster members
should drop BGP sessions to the network.

3)

Asking all network elements to participate in exchanging information
between controllers is really not a good idea. Not to mention that your
current encoding does not even have a notion of cluster id.

Many thx,
R.
