I just had a discussion with our legal advisor whether it is necessary or not to sign a peering contract with every (little) peering partner. I know that a lot of the big ones require these contracts and I don't have a problem with that, my opinion just is that a contract with a peer who announces one /19 is not really necessary.
Today's Opnix is tomorrow's UUNet, and it's easier to get the contract when they are small to use as a hammer when they are big. Ok, I just tried three times, I can't say that sentence without laughing, but it makes my point. :-) -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell () ufp org Systems Engineer - Internetworking Engineer - CCIE 3440 Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request () tmbg org, www.tmbg.org
