When the PUA use cases were presented today in the LSR meeting, I made the 
comment that the RIB interactions for each use case would be different and 
needed to be specified.
Thanks,

Subject: Re: [Lsr] Prefix Unreachable Announcement Use Cases

I was not bringing RIFT's negative routies example as something inherently 
negative. I was just pointing it out to illustrate that today's data plane 
lookup does not really support "if does not match" checks.
[WAJ] In data plane, the device do still the “match” check, not “does not 
match” check.  When the router receives the PUA information, it will install 
one black hole route for a short time.

So your idea is that you install route for unreachable prefix to /dev/null ?

And how would that help connectivity restoration ?

Moreover it seems that it will just also prevent any local protection to 
locally bypass the failed destination.

Bottom line is that I agree with one problem statement. However IMHO described 
actions upon reception of PUA are questionable at best.

Cheers,
R.
