Hello,

We've got a pair of 7600/720-3BXL routers, one is running SXI3 and the
other SXF16 .  Both have some IPv6 unicast BGP sessions set up to a few
customer boxes running quagga, and I've added a prefix-list to limit
them to receiving only a IPv6 default route.  This works fine on the SXF
box, but from the SXI box the customer is seeing a lot of lines similar
to this in their bgp logs (they're filtering to stop them actually
receiving the prefixes):

2010/07/23 14:22:26 BGP: 2001:41c8:20:10::2 Can't find the route
2607:fbc0::/32

Where 2001:41c8:20:10::2 is the address of our router.

Our SXI router also shows:

BGP table version is 454837, local router ID is 89.16.160.2

Has anyone seen this behaviour before?
