ESnet's 6bone router is in Berkeley.  Barring that, it's not a bad place to
connect for your purposes.  ISI-LAP, 3COM, Cisco and Digital-CA are quite
reasonable west coast points as well.

Is the vBNS connecting, or NLANR?

If vBNS would like to join, I can issue a pTLA.

Else it might be best just to take a delegation from an existing pTLA
(e.g., from the list I gave above).


Thanks,
