In a nutshell: My take is that Resource Certification drives routing *preferences*. If a network operator sees an expired or invalid prefix, they can investigate and *choose* to take action. This also applies to decisions when using router hardware, as described in section 5 of "BGP Prefix Origin Validation": http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sidr-pfx-validate-01#section-5
"Considering invalid routes for BGP decision process is a pure ***local policy matter*** and should be done with utmost care." (Emphasis mine)
I am hoping you can give some practical examples on how one goes about considering routes invalid with utmost care. Kind Regards, Martin
