Re: Inevitable death, was Re: Verizon Public Policy on Netflix

But regardless of the financial arrangements, such a connection doesn't require an ASN or BGP. In fact, it doesn't even require a registered IP address at either end! A simple Ethernet connection (or a leased line of any kind, in fact; it could just as well be a virtual circuit) and a static route would work just fine.

Anybody else feel a vendor t-shirt in the works? "Who needs BGP to peer, a static route would work just fine!" Time to get back into the Hot Tub Time Machine and back on point. *hangs head in shame*
