I think this was mentioned at the last NANOG meeting so it is not a new solution either.The RA does route aggregation? I didn't know that. So I can send it all of my more specifics and it will aggregate them for me? Neat. --asp
It just reduces route flap by doing BGP dampenning plus reducing the number of peering session you need to maintain. That helps with b/ in the list above. As Sean pointed out if your network is imploding, possibly because the flap is within your own network (you pointed out at NANOG that this may be the problem for SprintLink and AlterNet), then there is nothing the RS can do to help you.
