Or is the very role of bgpd to tell the _other_ provider that the adresses are also reachable through his routers, which will then propagate the information to the whole internet ? (I absolutely don't know about BGP, thought it was time I started getting information ;)) Morevover, I guess not every provider accepts BGP information from its clients. And what prevents me from sending crafted BGP packects saying that I can route to a specific address space I actually don't own ? -- Olivier Mehani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint: 3720 A1F7 1367 9FA3 C654 6DFB 6845 4071 E346 2FD1
