As I also stated in my last post (which you snipped out, and is pretty relevant) is that the handing out of ASN's should be harder. Currently ASN's are given to every silly dude that says 'i want multihoming'.
This simply isn't true. It was true several years ago, but, is not true now. (At least for ARIN. I don't know what the policies are elsewhere).
I am looking from a RIPE point of view. Lately I see ISPs popping out of the ground requesting ASNs and having actually only 1 upstream (there are 2 upstreams in the routing database, but in the real world there is only 1 upstream). -- Cliff Albert <cliff@oisec.net>
