[nostats.Reston.mci.net]
route:       198.79.88.0/21
descr:       ISDNET-NET
origin:      AS279
withdrawn:   941122
advisory:    AS690 1:3561
notify:      nacr at sura.net
mnt-by:      SURA
changed:     sherk at sura.net 950517
source:      MCI

IMHO this means that when telling AS690 about this route to prefer 3561 
as an exit point.
Is this correct?
