Let's be realistic ! Here i fully agree with Wilfried! If operator A is filtering out PI network B, then customer C (which is paying operator A) is entitled to complain and "suggest" operator A to correct its filtering (or he can always find a new operator, with a better customer needs' focus!) > One possibility will be to allocate /48 but keep reserved the remaining /32. > If the applicant justify that the /48 is getting filtered, then he may opt > to justify to obtain the /32. Is this a possible compromise solution ? A lot more reasonable yes, but if he needs an upgrade from /48 -> /40 he should get a /40, not immediately a /32. :-) > Regards, > Jordi Regards, ./Carlos -------------- Wide Area Network (WAN) Workgroup, CMF8-RIPE, CF596-ARIN FCCN - Fundacao para a Computacao Cientifica Nacional http://www.fccn.pt "Internet is just routes (196663/675), naming (millions) and... people!"
