Or until people who are still running multi-year old cisco code actually upgrade? This seems to primarily impact: 1) Old cisco code 2) PC based bgp daemons
Both of which likely just need to be upgraded. I actually suspect that a lot of people who dropped their bgp sessions did not noticesomething happened, and still will not upgrade their code....I suspect these people don't even know they have a bgp speaking device anymore.
On the other hand, the fact that various entities have gone out of their way to advertise that they're running old hardware/out-of-date software has been noted elsewhere. I'd strongly suggest, if you're reading NANOG, that you update, before someone less pleasant and friendly than myself finds you. Please.
