Abstract

The BGP Entropy Label Capability attribute is defined in RFC 6790.Regrettably, it has a bug: although RFC 6790 mandates that routersincapable of processing Entropy Labels must remove the attribute,fulfillment of this requirement cannot be guaranteed in practice.This specification deprecates the attribute. A forthcoming documentwill propose a replacement.
