I read the protocol draft again and still want to raise my early
question:the size of different ForCES message,i think not restrain it and
let implementation to freely choose will result in disasters,the reason is
that the protocol implementator not sure what message is legal and must
handle all sizes,a attacker may send very large size message to cause the
receiver down.I suppose we should limit the size of each ForCES message
accordingly.(FYI:The BGP set the message size limit of 4096 bytes, our
ForCES message is different,we have two sort of message,redirect message is
one sort,and all other messages belongs to the other,we should treat them
diffierently.)
Yours,Fenggen
