Chris,

Have you read draft-ietf-grow-simple-va-04 ? There is nothing in the draft nor in the implementation reg "route to the left".

It is all about "take the same door as your big boss when you exit and when you get new smaller boss in the middle who exist differently via different doors your net get's installed to still take a correct set of doors out".

As described to Shane semantically this is identical in default behaviour as installing all prefixes into RIB and FIB. However I would argue that if you do it within the POP you can do much better savings that the default behavior. But this is perhaps out of scope of this thread ;-)

Cheers,
R.

I've been chatting with a major vendor about their interest
in implementing S-VA:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-grow-simple-va-04

'route to the left' ... you can do this today, VA only wraps a
'protocol' and (maybe) 'operational modality' around 'route to the left'.

There may be hope yet.

sure, 'route to the left' (tm: schil...@uu.net)
