Well, If you don't access my address and I happen to be 
a poor ole 69/8 or <FILL IN NEW NET BLOCK HERE>
then your customers may not be able to get to me...
But there are an aweful lot of ifs to this ^^^^^^^^^^.
And I don't remember that command syntax at all....

Yea, I want to test that too..
Maybe I can make a visit to the local Cisco office and borrow
some time in the Lab.... I want to see this is action, and how it
may affect my routing... or maybe I can get a quick answer from the local
CCIEs...

Hey have you checked the Feature Navigator and seen which versions it
is in?  Catch me off-list....

Later,
