* Stephane Bortzmeyer:
But anycast by itself does not protect you against problems with BGP/routing. If Pakistan Telecom announces one of your prefixes, or if a wrong/outdated bogon filter blocks it, anycast by itself won't help. Here, a second anycast cloud with a second prefix may help.
And BGP does not optimize for RTT, like some resolvers do, so too much anycast will slow things down a bit. -- Florian Weimer <fweimer@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99
