Hi Christopher,
This survey was sent to the NANOG list and there someone responded saying that
they have been in the service provider world for 10 years and only had to send
a LoA once, with regards to authorisation for IP announcements.
I have been working in the SP world for 15-ish years and I have worked with all
Tier 1's at different points, and I have never had to send a LoA.
My only experiences with LoA's is for DC cross-connects (in this context I have
sent and received many). So the survey seems flawed in that the first question
should be something like "do you send and accept LoA's regarding prefix
announcements" because, the survey is based on the assumption that everyone is
using LoAs for this, I think this initial assumption needs clarifying.
Cheers,
James.
