Abstract
The Minimal Route Advertisement Interval (MRAI) plays a prominent role in convergence of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Previous studies have suggested using adaptive MRAI and reusable timers to reduce the BGP convergence time. The adaptive MRAI timers perform well under the normal load of BGP updates. However, a large number of BGP updates may flood Internet routers. We propose a new algorithm, MRAI with Flexible Load Dispersing (FLD-MRAI), which reduces the router's overhead by dispersing the load in case of a large number of BGP updates. We also examine the MRAI timers under the normal load of BGP updates. Since BGP routing policies play a significant role in preserving the Internet routing stability, we evaluate their impact on BGP convergence time and Route Flap Damping (RFD) algorithms. The proposed algorithms are evaluated using the ns-BGP network simulator.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
