Dear David,
What's if the only one IP address is that borrowed from his ISP?
Let say, if a small university borrowed one class C block from ISP1. And
this university want to connect to another ISP (ISP2) for load sharing.
Since only one IP block is enough so this university do not get IP block
from ISP2.
Is it possible for this university to request for it own ASN with the
only IP block that borrowed from ISP1?
Thanks,
Suwat Panitkullawat..
