Network Engineer sent it to > Regional Internet Registry. I have a feeling that we are trying to solve the poor performance of some players in this business with addressing policy. The easiest and best way for a customer to get resiliency is a) Get a provider that is a Tier-1 or have multiple upstreams b) Make sure you provider have a resilient network c) Get dual (really) connections to your provider. I assure you this will be cheaper than to get your own address space, LIR status, and God knows what. If a provider can't supply the above to a customer that really have the need for multiple connections and is willing to pay for it, I would change provider anyay. - kurtis -
