Specifically, they have the ability to tickle a legacy cisco bug with AS
path length. This bug was supposedly mitigated in code and I believe my
previous company is still filtering AS path length (UUNET) of 100 or
greater.
A valid AS-Path of greater than 100 has not yet been found (which was why
the filters were in place).
