	Title           : Operational Requirements for Enhanced Error Handling Behaviour in BGP-4
	Author(s)       : Rob Shakir
	Filename        : draft-ietf-grow-ops-reqs-for-bgp-error-handling-04.txt
	Pages           : 29
	Date            : 2012-06-06

   BGP-4 is utilised as a key intra- and inter-Autonomous System routing
   protocol in modern IP networks.  The failure modes as defined by the
   original protocol standards are based on a number of assumptions
   around the impact of session failure.  Numerous incidents both in the
   global Internet routing table and within Service Provider networks
   have been caused by strict handling of a single invalid UPDATE
   message causing large-scale failures in one or more Autonomous
   Systems.

   This memo describes the current use of BGP-4 within Service Provider
   networks, and outlines a set of requirements for further work to
   enhance the mechanisms available to a BGP-4 implementation when
   erroneous data is detected.  Whilst this document does not provide
   specification of any standard, it is intended as an overview of a set
   of enhancements to BGP-4 to improve the protocol's robustness to suit
   its current deployment.
