¡Hola!
I want to start using BGP4+ but I have not an ASN. I plan to eventually
become a pTLA, so i cannot just ask my upstream and use any IANA-RSVD2
ASN.
What should i do? The options I see are:
a. Use a IANA-RSVD[2] ASN and go ahead hoping nobody is going to start
filtering them out (there are 15 sites in the 6bone registry using rsvd
ASNs and only a few using BGP4+)
b. Use my IPv4 upstream provider ASN and hope they won't enter the 6bone.
(there is at least one pTLA doing that)
Some other option?
Thanks,
HoraPe
