This document describes a scheme where router A out-sources validation
to some router B.  Out-sourcing security is generally dangerous.  It is
strongly recommend that, if this scheme is to be used, that the
participating routers be under the same administrative control;
i.e. router B has truest in router A, and that there be some assurance
of the propagation path (TCP/MD5 authentication etc.).
