Foundry supports a feature called Cooperative BGP4 Route Filtering              
(http://www.foundrynetworks.com/services/documentation/ecmg/BGP4.html#63462)    
                                                                                
Some digging around at juniper.net reveals that Juniper also supports           
ORFs but only on the ERX platform                                               
(http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/erx/erx50x/swconfig-routing-vol2/html/
+bgp-config9.html).                                                             
                                                                                
Cisco also supports it since 12.0                                               
(http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1612/products_feature_guide09
+186a008008088c.html)                                                           
                                                                                
It basically sends filters defined in prefix-lists in route refresh             
messages.                                                                       
                                                                                
A more formal definition of it can be found in the following draft
