how about eliminating this issue perminantly from ever happening and moving to voluntary peering between gateways. Know thy neighbor and be responsible foryourpeers androutesseems to work really well for everyone else yet amprnet still relies upon route distribution from a single source.
Are you suggesting something such as a possible BGPv2 that all gateways or designated regional gateways could perhaps tunnel broadcast between themselves? This would be interesting and may help with other route issues between those using RIPv2 <-> BGP amprnet sites.
for the most part yes. even if just the regional gateways peered and the smaller nodes then connected to one or more of the regional gateways by arangement with a given node op we could then escentially get rid ofdistributing ampr.txt and dynamic routing issues then get handled and resolved between peers. the routing protocol used wouldn't even have to be BGP in all cases though that's likely most appropriate if one considers each node op to basicly be an AS unto themselves. each peer could decide what protocol was appropriate to distribute routes it knows to it's other ajacent peers. peerswould also be free to select the (vpn) tunnel protocol of their choice. By using standards based methods which are widely deployed as common practice across all users of the IP protocols we stand to gain personel and resources that can assist in growing and developing our part of the amateur radio communications hobby.
