Firstly I will make the point that I am a networking, software and systems engineer. I am not a lawyer, and do not have the capacity to assess the legal claims and make determinations pertaining to them.<br>
<br>
None the less, I am deeply saddened that Steve Skeeves has felt the need to involve me personally in his clients commercial dispute with AINS.<br>
I work at AINS exclusively in the capacity of ICT Manager and have no authority to intervene with this commercial dispute.<br></blockquote><div><br>Ah, you're just following orders, right?<br><br>Out of curiosity, whose idea was it to poison the routing table with /24s?<br>
<br>It doesn't sound like the kind of thing a commercial person would
come up with. It would have required a technical person who understands
BGP and more specific routes over-riding less specific to suggest the
idea, then implement the configuration.<br>
<br>It's one thing to continue advertising a client's /20s, but quite another to deliberately put in shorter prefixes.<br><br>I'd seriously question the ethics & morality of any tech who suggested and/or implemented said route poisoning. <br>
