=> Huh? What authorisation does the LFN delegate for the

for the entire prefix, including its own address???

=> But the MR sends the BU for the entire prefix anyway,
regardless of
what the LFN thinks. I'm surprised you're bringing this up,
how is the
MR authorised to send a BU for everyone or inject routes for
a prefix
that includes all MNNs not just the LFN??

Because HA is sure that MR is allowed to send a BU for that
prefix as
suggested by the Prefix Table, which is hard-wired.

A HA wouldn't have a way to check addresses in the flow
bindings
unless the Prefix Table were extended.  And one can't extend
the
Prefix Table with hardwired preferences, because there's no
way for HA
to know in advance what apps may or may not run on LFNs.

The MR doesn't inject any route without HA's prior
hard-wired approval.

You seem to make a distinction between LFNs and MNNs.  Flow
preferencess of MNNs that are actually MNs (not LFNs) can't
be
pre-configured at MR's HA anyways.  So we're left with LFN
discussion
only.

One can't instruct a MR's HA about the flow preferences of
some random
MN that may come by.  And that MN's flow preferences have no
sense on
the MR.
