Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document defines an extension to BGP route reflectors.  On route
   reflectors, BGP route selection is modified in order to choose the
   best route from the standpoint of their clients, rather than from the
   standpoint of the route reflectors. 

Working Group Summary

   This work has been in the WG for a while; the WG LC was done in 2017. 
   The delay in publication is due to waiting for implementations.

Document Quality

  Implementations are available by 3 major vendors: cisco, Juniper, and Nokia.
