Take-away: Do not single home. I'm shocked folks aren't figuring this out. If you are a webhoster or enterprise and your business model can not support multiple Internet pipes, than you have a suboptimal business model (to put it lightly)
Or "single-home" to a tier-2 -- or tier-1.5, or whatever you want to call it in marketing newspeak -- that provides multihoming of their own networks, and get a netblock from their space. Often, that can be more cost effective (even these depeering situations notwithstanding) than single-homing to a tier-1. -- -- Todd Vierling <tv@duh.org> <tv@pobox.com> <todd@vierling.name>
