Well, it's just between the PE and the CE so it's not that bad :)
The operation folks refuse to work with big prefix-list. They want a
"dynamic" solution. So each time the customer adds a network into OSPF, you
don't have to create another prefixes.
The problem is that i see little options matching IGP when comes to BGP
route-map.
Just when you think route redistribution in the lab is bad...you meet the
real 2 headed monter: customer's demands and support's stubborness.
