1. Why don't providers use /31 addresses for P2P links? This works fine per rfc 3021 but nobody seems to believe it or use it. Are there any major manufacturers out there that do not support it?
Some vendors inconsistently support these on ethernet-framed interfaces and randomly break their code [again]. The one I am aware of is located on Tasman, and YMMV varies depending on what line of business synced code from whom and when.
