The current version of the encap file shows a route to 44.128.0.0/16
via the new amprgw address of 169.228.34.84:
route addprivate 44.128/16 encap 169.228.34.84
RIP should already be advertising it.
I don't believe this will cause any problems.
Your gateways and firewalls can start learning it, and I can use it
to debug the new installation. What we'll do is change the routing at
the UCSD border to direct traffic for that one /16 subnet to the new amprgw
instead of the old one right away, and after everything appears to be
working properly, we'll change the route for the entire 44.0.0.0/8.
Both systems already have a secondary address of 44.0.0.1, so that
changeover will be automatic.
Of course, the people announcing their own subnets via BGP won't be
affected by this change.

At that time, can we seed a dummy /32 address with a
route to the NEW_AMPRGW
- from the AMPR Test Subnet or from 44.0.0.0/24?
This will allow the new address to enter our tables, especially for those
running dynamic firewalls against the Encap list - since it's TBD if the
router/GW will move last, or sometime before the completed migration.
So..basically on that day, something like:
- Brian changes GWs at the TBD time
- We all change our default route (if in use)
- the route to 44.0.0.1 changes
- the dummy route is removed
