A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Avoid BGP Best Path Transitions from One External to Another
Author(s) : E. Chen, S. Sangli
Filename : draft-ietf-idr-avoid-transition-01.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 2004-12-20
In this document we propose a revision to the BGP route selection
rules that would avoid unnecessary best path transitions between
external paths under certain conditions. The proposed revision would
help the overall network stability, and more importantly, would
eliminate certain BGP route oscillations in which more than one
external paths from one router contribute to the churn.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
