It would still be difficult to tune traffic without my /24 annoucements being heard. It could work if we used global 802.1q tags instead of ASN's, although it probably would help if we add a couple octets to the VLAN ID. The equivalent of as_path could be stored similar to IP RR, moving processing overhead to a lower layer. We would also need a global tag registry, which I would be happy to host in our world-class NOC. It's a great place to work, and stays toasty warm even on cold winter days.
