No... I have one T1 to Sprint and one T1 to AT&T, I think my AT&T bill
will be high this month so I stop sending OUT AT&T and only accept
traffic, all my traffic in that link... So now I push OUT sprint and IN
AT&T. I don't want sprint to kill my connection just because all traffic
to me is entering AT&T do I?
