That's because they're constrained by the rules of the routing protocol employed, in this case rules inherent to BGP (path vectors) for loop avoidance. If you've some magical way to work around this in production networks we're all ears ;-) -danny _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
