Staff,
The 4-byte ASN vs. 2-byte ASN debate is raging in the RIPE address
policy working group. In conversations with folks off-line, we’ve been
trying to gauge how much of a problem the lack of 4-byte ASN support
from some vendors is for smaller networks. We know that big guys have
problems with some gear not supporting advanced feature sets, but it’s
much harder to get good data on how bad (or not) the little network
operators have it.
Took one of our upstream providers almost 2 months before they could
support our 4-byte ASN..
It should be noted that this can affect how long it takes a company to
get utilization numbers up..
