I think the number of sites that have this particular situation is very small and does not justify such an enormous waste of address space to circumvent the filters on these particular providers. Small address advertisements (>/19) are sufficient to provide acceptable redundancy in a multi-homed environment.
If the registries would start allocating address space that has been recovered from the swamp to this sort of company, then the problem would be solved. If a company needs multihoming capability but will never use more than a /23 then what is wrong with reusing swamp space? -- Michael Dillon - E-mail: michael@memra.com Check the website for my Internet World articles - http://www.memra.com
