ISPs face many problems with the current iBGP. First,
operating iBGP is costly as it requires human configuration
and supervision of all the iBGP sessions. This configuration
is error prone and hard to troubleshoot. Secondly, the intro-
duction of Route Reflectors, to solve scalibility issues, has led
to a reduced path diversity within the routers of the network.
It has been showned that Losses of Connectivity are often
caused by routing failures [1], and iBGP is often responsible
of these. This low performance system does not fit for the
