Single AS multiple Dirverse Providers

Mon Jun 10 21:50:50 UTC 2013

Just to update everyone.. Already had the allowas-in setup, the end result is that the ISPs in question tier2 team did not know that they block inbound updates from their upstream(peers) from known ranges inside their network.  So, the upstream was blocking the customer prefix as they thought they should only receive that block from our peer with them, vs. receiving those from the "net"  

Recently, they fixed their filters on their peers and we have now received the /24s in question.

I would submit that it's very likely that someone setting up 50+ places 
will have gained expert level knowledge of BGP and will understand the 
compromises they are making by "breaking the rules".

I think the point is that if this is your first rodeo, perhaps you should 
stick with the script.
