Why should I have to renumber once a year to be multi-homed ?
I'm not saying you should, I'm saying people are willing to it. To me that indicates that we are not looking at the problem right now, but on a symptom of the >real< problem. I think the solution to the real problem is to find a better method for assignment of routable IPs to multihomed customers. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
