I'd need to know a lot more about what problem you are trying to solve. Are AS1-3 all internal to you, or are some of them your upstreams? It's highly unlikely that an ISP could get three registered AS, but you could use private ASNs. Do the users have ASNs of their own? Do any multihome to other providers? Is their address space provider-assigned? If so, by you or another ISP? Why do you want different paths? Traffic management? Controlling the exit to your upstreams? -- "What Problem are you trying to solve?" ***send Cisco questions to the list, so all can benefit -- not directly to me*** ******************************************************************************** Howard C.
