The biggest problem with using non-routable ip addresses on numbered interfaces whether point to point or frame or atm or whatever, is that you lose outside connectivity from those interfaces. We tried this, but the essential traceroutes from our core routes are too important when debugging BGP problems to the outside.

I agree. I can't see how a lot of debugging functions would be possible from the unmanned POPs if we used private ips. -vin
