Re: "Bad bgp identifier"
- From: Owen DeLong

Unicast currently ends at 223.255.255.255.
224.0.0.0/4 is multicast and I believe that
240.0.0.0/5
248.0.0.0/6
252.0.0.0/6 are listed as reserved for experimental purposes.

4271 specifies that bgp identifier must be a valid unicast ip address
So what is the larget 32 bit value expressed as a dotted quad that meets
this requirement?
Is it the last address in class c? class e? Can 255.x.x.x be used?
Do all vendors implement this?
I understand that draft-ietf-idr-bgp-identifier-06.txt does away with
the above requirements. Is this something I should ask vendors if they
will support it?
Thanks,
Joe
