   The current BGP specification mandates a maximum BGP message size of
   4096 octets.  As BGP is extended to support newer AFI/SAFIs, there is
   a need to extend the maximum message size beyond 4096 octets.  This
   draft provides an extension for BGP to extend its current message
   size for BGP messages from 4096 octets to 65535 octets.
