SIDR has decided not to support these, and IDR has published RFC 6472 / BCP 172 "Recommendation for Not Using AS_SET and AS_CONFED_SET in BGP". Nonetheless, they remain part of the protocol and have not (yet) been formally deprecated, so I mention them for completeness. --John _______________________________________________ sidr mailing list sidr@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sidr
