Agreed; Please resume the experiment. We're all operators here, and we MUST have confidence
that BGP speakers on our network are compliant with protocol specification. Experiments like
this are opportunities for a real-life validation of how our devices handle messages that are
out of the norm, and help us identify issues.
Kudos to researchers by the way, for sending courtesy announcements in advance, and testing
against some common platforms available to them (Cisco, Quagga & BIRD) prior to the experiment.
