With summarization in place, there is a need to signal loss of reachability to an individual prefix covered by the summary. This enables fast convergence by steering traffic away from the node which owns the prefix and is no longer reachable. This mechanism, referred to as Unreachable Prefix Announcement (UPA), has been specified for IGPs. This document specifies an and equivalent BGP mechanism for multi-AS networks where BGP is used to carry summary routes.}, }
