I've got a customer terminating a McLead and a Sprint DS3 on a single
7507. I'm preparing to break this up into two border routers and I'm a
little puzzled by the choice to force router ID to be the IP address of
the customer's side of the McLeod DS3. The machine didn't have a
loopback when I found it and the configuration shows a lot of BGP book
learning and what looks like not much hands on. Is this a requirement
for the McLeod side to behave properly? I think not but I'd like to hear
it from @mcleod.net - this customer is very finicky and I don't want any
'excitement' during the transition.
