Of note - it is good practise to keep the table: it's 'more neighborly'!
Keeping the import table can help reduce the sending of BGP ROUTE-REFRESH messages (which are costly for your peers).
Oh yeah, I'd never not do it on "real routers", but these are anycast nodes advertising two prefixes that never change (only might go away or reappear), so I'm not concerned. CPU churn at these nodes is minimal anyway, but hey, what's two more tables, right? ;-)
Thanks for your kind help folks!
To clarify, the suggestion is about reducing the burden on the peers of your anycast nodes :-) And as bonus - it probably resolves your logging issue! Win/win TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE *flies away* Kind regards, Job
