But you can have a /24 or larger subnet announced on BGP and have the same subnet on the
IPIP mesh as well.
In fact this improves connectivity for hosts within AMPRnet that are not routing towards
internet or do so with limitations (e.g. NAT).
When the IPIP mesh has been replaced with the new backbone, it would be the default
situation to be on that backbone network and have that announce your subnet on BGP, as I
see it.
So it would still mean you can route from/towards internet via your BGP announcement, and
towards other AMPRnet users via the backbone.

Chris
Announcing a prefix yourself and joining the IPIP
mesh are mutually exclusive.
Can you explain?
