I've had to connect to a new upstream peer which is advertising an IPv4 safi of 128 (MPLS-labelled VPN address)
see http://www.iana.org/assignments/safi-namespace

I've modified the source to temporarily ignore this (actually anything over 127) as it currently only accepts 1 thru 3. Once the session is established, everything works well. What I really need to know is if this is potentially A Huge Mistake, or should bgpd be able to ignore unsupported capabilities being advertised to it?

Any advice would be appreciated.
