Re: Smaller than a /24 for BGP?

I would suggest that this is trying to solve the wrong problem.  To me this
is pressure to migrate to v6, not alter routing rules.

Kind Regards,

Have there been talks about the best practices to accept things smaller
than a /24? I qm seeing more and more scenarios where folks need to
participate in BGP but they do not need a full /24 of space.  Seems
wasteful.  I know this would bloat the routing table immensely.  I know of
several folks who could split their /24 into /25s across a few regions and
still have plenty of IP space.
