i apologize if this has been discussed...searching mboned/nanog/ietf/arin/e=
tc archives doesn't give me the clarification i hoped for.
is there a defined method to request eGLOP space? does anyone really care =
what people use internally for mcast? i see mr. eubanks submitted a propos=
al back in 2007 for eGLOP assignment process and ARIN shot it down, but i c=
an't seem to find current status.
i've exhausted my 233/8 space and i'm moving to SSM (iptv). SSM is defined=
as 232/8, but is using that really necessary (technicalities aside)? if i=
do indeed move to 232/8, would it make the most sense to have my sources l=
ive in publicly assigned space for possible advertising in the future? mos=
tly looking for what others have done as best-practice and future-proofing =
here...
thanks kindly for on/off-list replies.
