As long as you are familiar with the pitfalls, there is nothing inherently wrong with using a single AS in multiple locations, and advertising discrete blocks of address space in each one. The best reason to do this is for a network that you eventually plan to merge - it eliminates issues of having to make major BGP configuration changes.
Nothing inherently wrong with it if you're paying for transit, but good luck getting peering in multiple locations without presenting consistent views. Just making sure Ralph knows this, since I'm sure achieving 99% peering by getting 10GE into NYIIX is the goal for his OC192 over 2600 network. :) -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras () e-gerbil net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)
