In lieu of Computel knowing what the RADB is, I will handle the RADB entry myself, if I don't decide to recycle the assignment altogether and start from scratch, which is likely by now, after analyzing and evaluating the situation a bit more. The Internic should strap on more asbestos now.
Just out of curiosity, why should Internic strap on more asbestos? I thought the following would have been warning enough: ***PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION PRIOR TO REQUESTING AN IP NUMBER FROM THE INTERNIC: Due to technical and implementation constraints on the Internet routing system and the possibility of routing overload, certain policies may need to be enforced by the major transit providers in order to reduce the number of globally advertised routes. These potential policies may include setting limits on the size of CIDR prefixes added to the routing tables, filtering of non-aggregated routes, etc. Therefore, addresses obtained directly from the InterNIC (non-provider-based, also known as portable) are not guaranteed to be routable on the Internet. -dorian ______________________________________________________________________________ Dorian Kim Email: dorian@cic.net 2901 Hubbard Drive Network Engineer Phone: (313)998-6976 Ann Arbor MI 48105 CICNet Network Systems Fax: (313)998-6105 http://www.cic.net/~dorian
