Suppose that IP space were not a problem. When IPv6 comes up all around, it certainly won't be then. You can have and waste all the IP space you could imagine, since we'll be numbering every atom in the known universe. And suppose we have ASNs a plenty. Would Sprint, Digex, and AGIS still be trying to cut out so many routes? Are any other ISPs doing this filtering? -- Phil Howard KA9WGN +-------------------------------------------------------+ Linux Consultant | Linux installation, configuration, administration, | Milepost Services | monitoring, maintenance, and diagnostic services. | phil at milepost.com +-------------------------------------------------------+
