1. Introduction
Dissemination of flow specification rules BGP describes an extension to BGP which may be used to propagate information describing flows of data between BGP speakers. Such information may be needed to apply action on selected data flows through and beyond autonoumus systems. Examples of such actions are: dropping, rate limiting, redirecting, monitoring etc ...
