But regardless of the financial arrangements, such a connection doesn't
require an ASN or BGP. In fact, it doesn't even require a registered IP
address at either end! A simple Ethernet connection (or a leased line of any
kind, in fact; it could just as well be a virtual circuit) and a static
route would work just fine.

Anybody else feel a vendor t-shirt in the works?
