to what extent could BGP policy be used to accomplish divide-and-conquer

I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't solve the problem (I suspect you need
actual routers to do that, not just routing policy), and from
everything I hear BGP is already badly overloaded without taking on
new duties, but I confess that the idea of trying to do this with BGP
hadn't occurred to me, so I can't claim to have thought about it much.


I work with a group of BGP developers who are very concerned with
the amount of work that has been piled on BGP.  I doubt that we
should rely on BGP to enforce a whole bunch of new policy for 6to4.
