If you're multihomed and your BGP advertisement policy differs from your
providers--which it will--then you'll have no problem getting an ASN.
If you are advertising only your assigned addresses, then your policy is
obviously different than your providers and it requires a unique ASN.

Please pardon another newbie question. But to get an ASN from ARIN,
we
need, not only to be mulithomed, but also to explain that we have a
"unique
routing policy" that differs from that of our provider.
Does simply having 2 different providers with whom we intend to do BGP
peering for redundancy & load sharing constitute a "unique routing
policy"?
Or is there something else that ARIN is looking for?
Thanks!
