George:

you're saying junOS has 'export RIB'?
i've been asking cisco for an (undocumented export RIB)
for a year now
but it's such a dangerous (and 'only really useful
for researchers/analysts') knob that I haven't
pushed/expected very much.

hmm, if junOS has it that would be great...

  Only those routes that each if the mesh members think of as best,
  assuming they have intercourse with more than one eBGP partner.
  
  If you have one box that has listen-only sessions with all the
  eBGP neighbors, then you could see the entire outside-world
  perspective, add all your iBGP mesh and then you can see wht
  they're picking as best routes.
  
  That said, Juniper supposedly has a send-all option in their
  BGP implementation, Cisco might feel that competitive urge to
  add an undocumeted hook too...
