So who do you blame...the RFC or the vendor that ignores it? Dropping the
session seems to break the "be conservative in what you send and liberal
in what you accept" suggestion. If you know someone else will ignore the
rules (there's always someone) breaking due to their error kind of sucks.

Hi
i could not post to nanog directly.. perhaps you could do it for me?
our 2 uplinks, ebone and carrier1 went down (flapping routes at the
borders).
the problem was a malformed as-path (with a private confederation in it),
which was distributed from netherland over the network... (over routers
VendorX).
rfc-compliant routers dropped the peering session after receiving this
malformed route
ebone has contaced the provider and he has already fixed this
announcement.
thnx & bye, Ingo
