Creating an ipv6-site object

[Kevin Farnes]

There is that potential if all else fails. However, this does make life a 
little bit more difficult for connection points as they must then ensure 
that this ASN does not get distributed. I suppose I could just put a 
suitable number in the field to allow the object to be created and just 
never use it. However, I would have thought that was cheating a 
could lead to confusion later.

I would have thought, however, that the system would be capable of 
allowing sites to be created without the necessity of having to have 
their own ASN number.

The current thoughts between myself and the connection point I 
have been talking to would be to use Static routing which keeps life 
nice and simple for both parties.
