Technical Summary
This document describes a revision to the BGP route selection
rules that would avoid unnecessary best path transitions between
external paths under certain conditions. The proposed revision would
help the overall network stability, and more importantly, would
eliminate certain BGP route oscillations in which more than one
external paths from one BGP speaker contribute to the churn.
