Hey All,

So we're running out of peering space in our /24 and we were considering using private /30's for new peerings.  Are 
there any horrific consequences to picking up this practice?


You can reclaim space by switching your peerings to /31s where possible.

If you go down the private space route, make sure you and your peers
know about "next hop self"
