You have to make certain that your upstream provider(s) will accept all more specific routes from you for networks in your CIDR block. That way as soon as you notice a problem such as the one above for example, you could announce 207.228.0.0/20 and 207.228.16.0/20 to the world. Since you are announcing more specific routes you have immediately fixed your routing problem. THEN you beat up on the offender and offender's NSP to fix their announcement. -- Paul. *-----------------------------------------------------------------------* | Paul W.
