[routing-wg]Routing Aggregation Policy

Why not look at the exiting BGP policy tool we have today in 12.0S,
12.2S, Junos, and IOX to see if it can be a configurable policy - if it
is not - draft a new feature description. You got both vendor here. I've
done this in other SP Security forums. 

There are something on this list that are interesting ideas - but out of
context of how the various flavors of routing software in the industry
works. There are other things - like this routing policy idea - that can
be walked through to the point where we have new tools added to vendor's
security toolkit.
