Could you please elaborate on this? Unless Bob is actually breaking the "single AS needs to have common IGP and be connected internally", I don't understand the relevance of your statement above. Just because he's multihomed doesn't mean he can't just announce /32 and then internally handle the routing (of course he should do aggregation though, but perhaps is smaller chunks). It seems to me while being extra super sure we meet goal 1 of making sure NAT is gone for ever (and ever) we fail goal 2 of not allocating a bunch of prefixes to ISP's that are too small. Well, if you need a /20 for your business needs, you should request it. Afaik as long as you justify it, it shouldn't be a problem? But I do agree that /56 should be enough for residential users for quite a while, so let's start there. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: [email protected]
