Policy Statement on Address Space Allocations

Hi,

imho, most multi-homed sites can do with a partial routing table; 
organisations who want or need to have full routing tables should put 
extra RAM in their backbonerouters to meet demand. When 64 MByte 
isn't enough anymore...buy a cisco 7500 series which can hold 128 
MByte RAM. you can minimize the number of your full-routingtable 
routers with ebgp multihop features (for multi-homed customers)
in the mean time...monitoring routing tables and notifying net-admins 
that advertise less efficient aggregates will help.

i don't think renumbering the networks of ISP customers is a
real-world solution (they will really hate you for that). ip-ip
tunnels have lot's of problems and overhead too. in short: optimize
aggregation within current assignments, hope that it helpes, and
lobby for budgets if it doesn't. that sounds real-world to me...

cheers,

Nick Vermeulen
