The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Recommendation for Not Using AS_SET and AS_CONFED_SET in BGP' (draft-ietf-idr-deprecate-as-sets-06.txt) as a BCP This document is the product of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-deprecate-as-sets/ Technical Summary This document provides advice to operators. It deprecates the use of the AS_SET and AS_CONFED_SET types of the AS_PATH in BGPv4. This is done to simplify the design and implementation of the BGP protocol and to make the semantics of the originator of a route more clear. Working Group Summary This document was adopted as a WG item on Oct 25th, 2010. There was an initial WGLC that concluded on April 13th, 2010. Comments from the initial WGLC were integrated and a second WGLC held, which concluded on May17, 2011. Document Quality This note provides advice to operators proposing that they cease using a current BGP protocol feature. Personnel John Scudder (jgs@juniper.net) is the document shepherd. Stewart Bryant (stbryant@cisco.com) is the responsible AD. RFC Editor Note There is no RFC2119 language used in the draft. Please remove section 2 - the RFC2119 section and the RFC2119 reference.
