Mailing List Archive: Routing Strategies for Multiple LNSes

Matthew,

BGP is the right protocol for this.
Most users should be using dynamic addresses from pools, and the pools
should be allocated in ranges to LNSs, and only the pool (as subnet) should
be advertised.
The exception would be users with static IPs/routes provisioned through
RADIUS, but that should be a minority...
