I'd like to see an option for a larger private ASN block - 1K of private ASNs can be quite a pain in really large organizations. I have seen others mention this in the past - e.g. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/cisco/nsp/158375 But apparently there's not enough traction to cause movement. -----Original Message----- From: Nick Hilliard [mailto:nick () foobar org] Sent: Monday, September 23, 2013 10:22 AM To: Geoff Huston Cc: nanog () nanog org list Subject: Re: 32-bit ASN acceptance by ISPs in ARIN region On 23/09/2013 15:14, Geoff Huston wrote:
I'm sorry, but I'm still confused, as I see your comment as one that relates to the size of the payload field here, as distinct from the support for 32 bit AS numbers per se.
hence my original comment about being usable on nontrivial transit networks, where having the size of the community local administrator >= your customer asn bitfield size is a rather useful feature. There's also a serious vendor support problem at the moment. Nick
