Need a bit of advice from the folks who work at ISPs or are familiar with the ARIN setup.
We already have our own ASN and public IP subnets registered to us, and we have had several sites running BGP with the ISP and also announcing our subnets out to the Internet, though with a single ISP at each site so far (this was done in preparation for multi-homing several years ago but we are only now adding the second ISP). Now, with the additional/backup ISP, but the same existing subnet that is already being announced and routed fine with the existing ISPs, do we still need to create a route-object? I was pretty sure that we didn't as the subnets already have route-objects done from when we started announcing them to the existing ISPs, and the route-object to my understanding is done by ARIN and is ISP-neutral. However the new ISP (a tier-1 provider, BTW) categorically stated in reply to my mailed query to them that we still needed to create a route-object. So I am confused. Would appreciate any advice. Thanks, -Andrew. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
