A peer's configured role now does three more things:
- Our OPEN carries the BGP Role capability with what we are to the peer.
A peer whose own says it is something that does not pair with that, or
that sends two different roles, is refused with OPEN Message Error /
Role Mismatch. A peer that says nothing is accepted unless require_role
is set. A role on a peer in our own AS is a configuration error.
- Routes from a provider, a peer or a route server are marked Only to
Customer on the way in if they are not already, and our routes are
marked on the way out to a customer, a peer or a route server client.
- A marked route from a customer or route server client, or from a peer
with someone else's mark, is a leak and is refused. No policy setting
turns that off.
The packet crate gains the Only to Customer attribute (malformed:
treat-as-withdraw), and the Role Mismatch subcode is corrected from 8 to
11.
The status page shows whether the peer confirmed its role.
