Thanks for all the great input, minus the somewhat uncivil comments of some! -Dave Randy Bush wrote:
What are people's feelings on loose source routing? The general sentiment around here is that it is a very evil thing. The reason I ask is that there is a certain network out there (who will remain nameless) who refuses to peer unless loose source routing is enabled. I can somewhat understand their reasoning (they can reroute traffic on OUR network as necessary)
false. the reason is that our noc can debug your routing problem without going through the problems of getting intelligent cooperation from your noc.
