I will be rolling back transparency status of the RS to all peers with exception of those who have responded saying they like not seeing the RS's AS in the ASPath. I will turn on transparency in the future for anyone who wishes it. Simply send me a request. Additionally, I've updated the peering request template (http://www.ra.net/.peering.template.html) allowing you to specify whether or not you wish to have the RS peer transparently. -- /*===================[ Jake Khuon <khuon@Merit.Net> ]======================+ | Systems Research Programmer, IE Group /| /|[~|)|~|~ N E T W O R K | | VOX: (313) 763-4907 FAX: (313) 747-3185 / |/ |[_|\| | Incorporated | +==[ Suite C2122, Bldg. 1 4251 Plymouth Rd.
