Speaking of prepends, what's the community opinion on prepending someone else's ASN on your routes for TE purposes if you're announcing routes you don't want certain AS's to see, but don't have a communities knob that works for those networks? I was pretty negative on the idea until I was in the situation of having a working knob taken away. Nobody's complaining about it...probably not even noticing it.
Per usual, I'm some people look on it with distaste, though I feel that is an emotional response and not a technical viewpoint, as it is a perfect way of handling hinge case workarounds that are usually temporary in nature. Jack
