> Title:		 Error Handling for Optional Transitive BGP Attributes
> Creation_date:	 2009-03-03
> WG ID:		 Independent Submission
> Number_of_pages: 8
>
> Abstract:
> According to the base BGP specification, a BGP speaker that receives
> an UPDATE message containing a malformed attribute is required to
> reset the session over which the offending attribute was received.
> This behavior is undesirable in the case of optional transitive
> attributes.  This document revises BGP's error-handling rules for
> optional transitive attributes, and provides guidelines for the
> authors of documents defining new optional transitive attributes.  It
> also revises the error handling procedures for several existing
> optional transitive attributes.
