The paper proposes selective next-hop deletion for some prefixes in order to allow for the net traffic to be better controlled. We have applied changes to the OSPF routing daemon in the Open Source Zebra router where by, some equal cost next-hops for prefixes can be selectively deleted. This allows for better traffic shaping without requiring any modifications to the kernel or data path. Please see the README file and the attached report.
