Hi All,

I will soon post the finished config using OfR/OER.


Maybe find out why the ISPs are not willing


I had explained this in a previous email. This is a client who gets 2 E1
connections from 2 ISP's. One ISP  is very liberal with Public IP addresses
and the other is *NOT*. They are NATted from here to high on end.

The organisation does not have their own ASN. It is possible to setup BGP
for this client, but i'd have to use a private ASN. The ISP's would then
have to strip this private ASN, which they are *NOT* willing to do.

This is the reason i opted for OER, it would work out perfectly well for
this client and not have to engage in long conversations with the ISP's
trying to justify the setup and their cooperation in getting it done.

I do hope this explains it.

Regards

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in
a million chances happen 99% of the time.
