Certianly ARIN's requirements for ASN ownership are simple enough, be multihomed and have a 'unique' routing policy. If you need an ASN likely you are already multihomed and have a 'unique' routing policy, eh?It's not even THAT difficult...all you have to be is multihomed _or_ have a 'unique' routing policy. Being multihomed by itself is trivial and plenty of justification...does anybody have some examples of 'unique' routing policies, that require ASNs, that don't require or imply multihoming? For example, while anycasting is a good example of a potential use of an ASN without requiring multihoming, it's kind of implied that they're at least purchasing transit from multiple organizations (if not truly multihomed) and could easily justify an ASN without having to specify their unique routing policy. What sorts of 'unique' routing policies justify an ASN?
Anything weird, bizaare, or different. Like once every year when some ip/colo provider decides they want to sell local peering routes or want to give every datacenter an ASN, or when some route optimization company decides they need a huge block of ASNs for...well...nevermind, or when someone decides that they need a special ASN dedicated to acting as a border between their reserved asn customers and the rest of the world... -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras () e-gerbil net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
