Yes, Dane is not only very smart but also a very sharp and savvy
business operator.. But I am also sure they are not doing this as a 'no
charge' offering for a 'resi' circuit.
Most competitive ISP's (such as Sonic and ourselves) a very flexible to
customer's needs and are willing to support custom configurations but ..
it has to make business sense...and the underlying infrastructure be
able to support that configuration.

I am not familiar with VZ's FIOS network...
however I suspect that if they are using a Redback at the Headend, it
would allow you to have a 'bridge' network with secure arp settings.
(it's a feature that we have seen on Redback's...)
Allows you to have a 'flat network' for all your subs, and there is a
mechanism built in to allow for assign static ip's and also not allowing
for someone to 'fake' / 'steal' someone else assigned IP's. This is
nice, because one can be very efficient in their use of IPv4 addresses....
This is why I had said earlier that some of these networks are built
with infrastructure that is not designed / meant to run advance routing
protocols for an End User customers... too much overhead in running bgp
sessions to hand off a single IP or even a /29 ........

Is that is needed, what is wrong with that ?
Well, we just had FiOS Business 150/65 dropped this week, and my /27 isn't
even a /27; we're sharing a /24 with, presumably, a bunch of other customers.
Not sure how BGP would handle that...
