IPv4 and ASN Policy draft on-line

In the past I was confused about RIPEs standpoint on assignment of PA
space to users that are going to be running BGP and be dual homed. I
think it would be good to include something in the document that I read
on the list before if this is a acceptable assignment practice.

Below is part of an email from Nurani Nimpuno on 03 Aug 2001.

"However, it is also possible to multi-home by having a PA address
range announced through two providers. If the PA addresses come from
ISP A's allocation, the customer would have to agree with ISP B to
announce that range separately. ISP A would also have to announce the
range as a more specific route together with their aggregate."
