maximum-prefix sucks because it kills your session, but sucks less than
killing the entire bgp router process. i wish there was an option to simply
drop announcements over the limit rather than killing the session.

But would that be worse?

``maximum-prefix n p warning-only'' along with a log analyzer that
recognizes the warning, are perhaps a better pair of friends.
