RE: 32-bit ASN acceptance by ISPs in ARIN region

I'd like to see an option for a larger private ASN block - 1K of private ASNs can be quite a pain in really large organizations.

I have seen others mention this in the past - e.g. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/cisco/nsp/158375

But apparently there's not enough traction to cause movement.

In the 32-bit space there is: 4200000000-4294967294 Reserved for Private Use [RFC6996] which is considerably more than 1,000. The remaining unallocated 16-bit AS Numbers are 64000-64495. Regards, Leo
