In fact he did have an AT&T badge which he was not allowed to hand over either. The fellow I chatted with at AT&T said they are not allowed to hand over their badge because it would compromise their security. I'm assuming the badge was of the keycard variety. My thought was that they could have an AT&T id of some sort that was specifically used for this kind of access; one that is not a keycard and doesn't have any proprietary information on it that would make their security people uncomfortable if it was handed over at a collocation. craig

Wouldn't someone like AT&T be better served by giving their employees some company issued ID that they can submit to secure facilities? I know it wouldn't be governmentI am shocked that the ATT employee did not have an ATT ID. In our facilities, we require all visiting telcos to produce company identification, and between telcove/level 3, Verizon, MCI, and several others, we have never had an issue. I'd be a bit more suspicious that he didn't have ATT ID. -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex () nac net, latency, Al Reuben Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net
