Hi,

Just seeking a couple of clarifications,

a. Is it possible to set the "site identifier/SOO" attribute on customer
routes/prefixes when they are injected into MPBGP via an IGP at the PE?
b. Is it not possible, that incase a network administrator wishes to use
2547 and run IGP with the Providers, all he needs to remember is his "SOO"
so that the any other provider he multihomes with, can use the same value?
c. is the purpose of SOO not the same as AS number in vanilla BGP? However,
the customer need not run BGP with the provider in this case.

-thnx
Alok
