I doubt they care about hops be they AS or router.
Question is: Why do you anycast in the first place. I think for DNS, primary reason is redundancy and resilience, which is why spreading capacity is the primary goal. Reducing latency, or better, not increasing latency by introducing anycast is it's secondary goal. For other services, goals may be different. - -- Antoin Verschuren Technical Policy Advisor SIDN Meander 501, PO Box 5022, 6802 EA Arnhem, The Netherlands P: +31 26 3525500 M: +31 6 23368970 Mailto: antoin.verschu...@sidn.nl XMPP: antoin.verschu...@jabber.sidn.nl HTTP://www.sidn.nl/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUBXGKAAoJEDqHrM883AgnxnsH/RxIIZIS7eI4V05uRr70ScTP 88MNp2L3Wo7t4toBvVI2/IB812KZ8gPryD6DfF7eu/FulNJvgpj6dRvvWNbG02gC 52KdC+zzDZDhLjrF+Zjuf9wddXrhpgrie3v14I76Fe4E5mtWwNvZHGyyWLZHOZek YnLXzacm2jH/H6hiD0o/d1VUQtyzIj1nDAHr/JBqHUNN92D28/OxY5DBeX5Y+jnj iwtT/MJ4KynbDD2+NiPZ1ExeBzMv3KM1LR+p5uCg8IKjsZI2iUc1Pu58VzQno57S rkxZXrJTAoO1Te0J0LAVUTLV2+fQRVpjYn6sJ/0CGp5MfdE9nMkeG/Nj50nD2e4= =ruZ9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
