To emphasize some aspect of this for the non-operators on this list: the
technical bits of this are manageable. Talking to 500 other ISPs that
are not responding to e-mail, do not have anyone in the same time zone,
generally lack understanding of BGP, etc. - this is what really costs,
and where a well-maintained route server really shines.
(And then, there's "poor BGP implementations that just do not scale
properly with 600+ peers on the same router"... like, "most of them")
If there were only 10 other ISPs at the IXPs we connect to, we could
do without route servers :-)
