Abstract

 RFC 1403, "BGP OSPF Interaction", describes technology which is no
 longer used.  This document requests that RFC 1403 be moved to
 Historic status.

1. Details

 During a review of internet standards relating to BGP, it became
 apparent that BGP OSPF interaction, as described in RFC 1403, is not
 common usage (if at all), and requires significant implementation
 complexity.  Since this mechanism has not been in use in the public
 internet for many years (if ever), it is proposed to reclassify it to
 Historic.

2. Security Considerations

 Moving RFC 1403 to Historic has no known effect on the security of
 the internet.

3. References
