Now, when traffic comes from head office destined for a site prefix,
it hits the provider gear. That provider gear will need routing
information to head to a particular site. If you wanted to use
statics, you will need to fill out a form each time you add/remove a
prefix for a site and the provider must manage that. Its called a
'pain in the arse'.

Enter RIPv2.

Or BGP.  Why not?
