Ask a good question in inet-access and you will get a lot of answers,
both on and off list.
The reason the list isn't very active is that its former "support new
ISPs" role is unfortunately dwindling as the telcos keep selling ISP
services for less-than-wholesale and independent ISPs can't compete and
fold or sell-out to the telcos.
For anyone who wants to join this low volume (but bursty) list, see:
http://inet-access.net/mailman/listinfo/list
As to the original question, it would be useful to review the NANOG FAQ
before posting, especially if one is new to the list. Among the many
useful tidbits of information is this one:

Q: How do I know if a router configuration question is on-topic or not?
A: If your question is "how do I do <foo> on a <bar> router?", this
question is best asked on one of the router-specific mailing lists
below. If your question is "How do I get <vendor A> and <vendor B>'s
implementations to work together?" then that question is on-topic for
NANOG. Platform-specific lists include:
Cisco routers http://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo cisco-nsp
Juniper routers puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
Foundry routers http://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/foundry-nsp
Riverstone routers http://www.nmops.org
