BGP Peer Selective Address Tracking is broken until 12.4(15)T3

In IOS release 12.4(15)T (and potentially in all older releases, I've tested it with 12.4(11)T4), the route-map option of the neighbor fall-over command that I've described in my March IP Corner article, Designing Fast Converging BGP Networks, is not saved in the startup configuration. You have to reconfigure the BGP neighbors after each router reload.

Furthermore, a BGP neighbor does not inherit the fall-over route-map option from a peer session template.

Both issues are fixed in 12.4(15)T3.
