I say we all start using octal two's complement for extended ASNs. (note to self: don't post to NANOG after a night out with a vendor.) -- Joe Hamelin, W7COM, Tulalip, WA, 360-474-7474 On Fri, Sep 16, 2011 at 9:39 PM, Mark Tinka <mtinka@globaltransit.net>wrote:

They're easier to remember, but if you operate an ASN for a reasonable period of time, it's okay to assume that you will remember it, whether it's as-plain or otherwise.
The same would hold true for your favorite upstreams, peers, customers and role model ISP's :-).
Cheers,
