Hi there, Yes I know, But they only peer with the ASN which you bought service from. You mean ISPs must buy two kind of service from provider (this upstream) to be multi-home or convince the peer with both of ASNs?

Hi

To add a comment, the upstream you mentioned here, has at least 2 different ASN's. In addition, Multihome doesn't necessarily mean peering with the sole upstream but you can peer with others...

Cheers,

Reza

Dear Saeed,

Thanks for this, But is there any to control this? In country like Iran in which you can only peer with your upstream.

What they can do?

Thanks

Dear members,

During previous RIPE NCC Regional Meeting, I noticed that ( according to our instructor ) there are some organizations

having AS number while they do not have a multihome network.

According policy it is a mandatory requirement for having an ASN. Even in AS request form there is a mandatory field ( peers )

which requestor has to declare at least 2 peers, otherwise the request will not be processed by hostmaster.

and here:

http://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/allocations-and-assignm...

it is clearly mentioned that "Current guidelines require a network to be multi-homed, and have a unique routing policy for an ASN to be assigned"

Now if it is really true that there are single-home organizations with ASN, isn't it a wrong doing?

Kind Regards,

Saeed.
