An "ISP" who does not understand and use BGP is probably not serious. Were I in the business of selling Internet connectivity (and I'm not, I'm a multihomed customer who does speak BGP with my upstreams) I'd look at such potential customers with a mixture of suspicion and badly hidden contempt. Which is not constructive, quarter-of-year-cash-flow-wise, but it is indeed better for the Internet. IMNSHO. And, in the long run, there is a definitive cost associated with running crap setups like multihoming without a proper dynamic routing protocol. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 I can't decide which WRONG TURN to make first!! I wonder if BOB GUCCIONE has these problems!
