One thing I will do at shared peering switches is to also configure static =
ARP or IPv6 neighbor entries in the router for my peers. This protects aga=
inst some new arrival on the switch accidentally configuring one of my peer=
's IP addresses on their gear and blowing up my session. That does cause s=
ome problems when a peer does maintenance that changes their MAC address, b=
ut I notice it fairly quickly.
