1. 1 Gbps link with complete block of UDP/ICMP protocol
One question: 1. Not knowing anything about your business, is there a specific reason that you want "a complete block of UDP/ICMP protocol"? That can be problematic with IPv4, and downright foolish with IPv6.perhaps we are walking around w/ incomplete notions of what constitutes a "complete block of UDP/ICMP protocol"... for me, literally,this makes no sense whatsoever. ratcheting back on my literal filter (be liberal in what you accept) I beleive what he is asking for is a contigious block of IP addresses for use in his network. am also making the inference that he is only looking for IPv4 (no route to host by /32 prefix).
Well, I dunno; I concur with jms: I assumed he meant "where the provider drops all incoming UDP and ICMP traffic addressed towards my IP space on the floor". Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
