The Enterprise guys really need to get out of the blanket "BGP is scary" mindset
It's not just "enterprise" mindset. Over the years I've seen a lot of deployed gear that either didn't support BGP at all or for which it was a significant extra cost. At least in the past this applied to many firewalls and load-balancers, and until recently, even one of the major CMTS vendors didn't support BGP. I agree that edge-node BGP is simple, but finding gear that supports it isn't necessarily so. --Jeff
