Hi, It seems multihoming discussion is an example of vicious circle (sp): More specific routes result in larger routing table but we want those routes and small table... Let me suggest a blasphemy: CIDR being advertised from two ASes. They say it should be only one, but why? In my opinion there is nothing wrong in advertising CIDR from two ASes as long as you can guarantee each border router advertises CIDR only if it can reach it. Imagine the following construction: AS-A--\ +(OSPF) --(CIDR) AS-B--/ Each BGP speaker advertises CIDR if and only if it learned about it from OSPF. It can be done, if you don't know how I'll forward you a working example. Each border router generates a default router and injects it into OSPF. From technical point of view I see no reasons why it should not work. What you need is: * An agreement between ISPs * Change in procedure making such a union of ASes an officially blessed solution so nobody would dare to hinder cooperation with filters. * Optionally you may need a separate CIDR, since both ASes have to advertise same prefix. You need it if each ISP wants to have private customers in addition to shared ones. The customer has "an independent connection to two ISPs" which is the quest item. I see more commercial than technical problems with such a solution. However my expertise is limited and somebody can point drawbacks I cannot see. Feel free to burn me on a stake, that's the right way of treating a blasphemy ;-) Regards, Jacek
