I have had good luck using the contact info registered for some of Microsoft's address space and/or ASNs. I don't remember which contact name I used, but I was surprised at how quickly I reached someone via telephone who knew BGP and could debug and resolve an IBGP problem they had. (They needed to do a soft reset on one of their internal sessions.) -dpm -- David P. Maynard, Flametree Corporation EMail: dpm@flametree.com, Tel: +1 512 670 4090, Fax: +1 512 251 8308 --
