AS701 has a published policy of never initiating BGP sessions with multihop > 2. I'd be very surprised if you're able to get them to change it for you: once you're in the multihop world, security and load issues become more complex, and large networks don't particularly want to deal with those headaches if they can help it. Maybe you could offer to pay them more per hop? ;) -David Barak no I DON'T work for AS 701 anymore... --- Jared Mauch <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Wed, Jun 11, 2003 at 10:25:14AM -0400, Jeffrey > Haas wrote: > > > > I hate using NANOG as a NOC of last resort, but it > looks like this is > > my best option. > > > > We recently migrated our IP connectivity to > UU-Net/MCI/whatever you > > want to call them these days.
