Your customers are paying for Internet connectivity. If they're unable to reach the sites they desire as a result of your intention actions (filtering announcements), why should they continue to pay you? While I fully support and expect route aggregation whenever possible, it is unreasonable to believe that everything fits in nice pretty packages. If you're unwilling to accept diverse /22 announcements without payment, why should we not expect the same for the /24's you're announcing? jas At 11:56 AM 6/9/01 -0700, Randy Bush wrote:
There are lots of reasons to have some diverse /22 announcements in your network for example.
but if you are not paying me, what reasons are there for me to spend my resources (route bloat) so you can engineer your traffic?
