Re: Networks ignoring prepends?

When you twist a policy knob to move BGP off its defaults, you take responsibility for making a better routing choice. And for correcting that choice if it should prove faulty. What I've seen here in this thread is a bunch of folks abdicating that responsibility. That's not unexpected, but it is disappointing.

Better is in the eye of the beholder. From your perspective, better is the lowest latency. From almost any ISPs perspective, better is the revenue positive path, followed by the revenue neutral path, with last choice being the revenue negative path. From 3356 perspective, they ARE choosing the best route… the route that pays them. Owen
