Shouldn't the big boys ... be forced to come up with a fairer solution?
by who?
An even playing field where those who can only get a few class C addresses are not excluded from multiple peering points. I think that this is fairer to *everyone*. So far, we have two unilateral decisions by those powerful enough to make it stick. InterNIC protects address space, and Sprint (and others) protect router memory. Isn't there a way, if the InterNIC and the larger backbone operators cooperated, that organizations having smaller armounts of address space would not be filtered out? Or is it technically impossible?
