Sure, it kills any BGP sessions that might be up, but it theory anyone running BGP is doing so because they want redundancy so you can probably get away with it anyhow... for those with stub networks hanging off connected/static routes, you get a brief blip, a few packets lost and hopefully not much more. --cw --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
