LSN is not trivial. Here is some unverified calculations I did on the problem of scaling nat. One of my colleagues here (Shane Alcock) did some research into "Service Provider NAT" based off passive traces from a New Zealand Residential ISP[1]. By passively looking at connections he inv

I think for very small/small networks anycast requires a lot of overhead and understanding. If your big enough to do anycast and/or loadbalancing it's not hard for you to put all three addresses onto one device. Anycast isn't really hard - same address, multiple places, routers see wha

Having no route is not a problem, you should get a destination unreachable directly and all is fine because IPv4 should be used as a fallback. The big problem is when you have a route to them, but they don't have a route back. You don't get destination unreachables, but instead get timeou
