My god I can't believe I read that even though I couldn't understand any of the techy speak. You have to wonder why that Aaron WII guy didn't just post pictures of the current facilities instead of making incessant invites for people to go and view them. Imo he would have been better off ignoringd the whole thing rather than getting into an argument, it was never going to end well. If he left it alone the thread would have died in just a few posts, it's like Naomi Campbell, no-one even cared about her rehab until she called in the lawyers then it moved form page 10 to page 1 in the papers.

I disagree. The RF -rm guy made accusations, he has the burden of proof, not Aaron.

So, that's how geeks fight... ugly sight...

Call them Geeks if you will Chacal but I bet you followed the arguments much better than most of us!:D

They never finished their argument with final proof...

But minsight is cracking me up...

Verio tried this years ago. They would announce their larger blocks, then down to /24's, and even down to /27's on some of them.

They didn't do this for any tech reaons at all. They did this for money reasons. They wanted customers to use more of their bandwidth than anyone elses, so they could bill them more. That's all, just for profit. You say it's so you can 'definate technical advantages', again, I say BS. You don't know what your doing. Cisco would tell you this, Nortel would, Extreme Networks would, every 'major' router maker would tell you this, every person that's worked with BGP will tell you this.

I thought the backbone carriers filtered all BGP routes > /24. Our BGP peers do.

the geek speak lost me too, but it was a good debate. I have to say that RF -rm knew his stuff and the other guy didn't even try to correct him. He ran and hid and waited until the thread was closed...

we need to know the end result!!!!
