Re: 16-bit ASN kludge

Along these lines, one could leave the transit AS networks alone if a parallel 16 bit ASN space were created. Essentially, any non-transit network would have it's non-public ASN retranslated NAT-style by upstream transit network border routers. Only the border routers would have to be changed. They would have to differentiate between public ASN X and non-public ASN X (same number) based on the which side of the router the ASN was learned from.

So given the lack of trouble with NAT sites leaking rfc1918 addresses, you foresee no problems with sites accidentally leaking the non-public ASN's, right?
