What’s left?
Need to signal anything beyond reachability (and AS hop count)?
BGP not particularly good for very dynamic data
BGP not to propagate link attribute info
Do we want to exchange RDs or is redistribution configuration enough?
History teaches that global BGP route selection metrics are difficult to agree on - don’t add more
On the other hand, BGP is pretty good at carrying around bags of “data” the protocol doesn’t care about
CAC and service thresholding (e.g.auto-bandwidth) are not for BGP
See RSVP, SIP or other signaling protocols
