I think it was more than just an invalid next-hop. If it was simply an invalid next-hop that shouldn't have created a malformed BGP update. Unless the invalid next-hop caused BIRD to send out a malformed BGP update.

I emailed xcel about the invalid next-hop address.

We should filter invalid next hops on the route servers.

There also appears to be an issue with how some routers handle the
invalid next hop.

Are all the peers with the issue of losing the session to RS2 running Brocade?
