RE: [nsp] Question about BGP routing damping

The announcing router must have an exact match entry in the local FIB in
order to announce the route. The one exception is when creating aggregates,
in which case, only a prefix-match must be made. If an 'internal' or local
path is not available, the prefix will be withdrawn, thus causing
route-flapping. Most get around this by routing their static announcements
to null0 with a high distance. Some applications require you to set this
distance to something less than 200, some not.
