Deaggregating for emergency purposes

Tue Aug 6 18:12:41 UTC 2002

I only have 10 /24's that are absolutely mission critical to keep up.
We have scaled back our IP usage, and we are a lot more efficient than
we were before about the IP space.
We are pretty well connected, so I would bet we would have a shorter AS
path than many other networks (particularly ones that would make a
mistake like that).

How did you arrive at 10x /24's?  What about when someone else has a
shorter as-path, or it gets to "oldest route wins"? Polluting the IRRs
for little/no benefit is a bad thing.
