24. Januar 2013! Autonomous System Numbers in 32 instead of 16 Bit!
They document IBGP Peerings in RipeDB for EBGP! That?s like documentating your LAN 192.168.x.x using RipeDB.
?Most AS numbers are currently 16-bit integers, but deployment of 32-bit AS Numbers (4-Byte ASN) is starting. Why? Because of expected ASN shortage in the 16-bit range around the year 2010.?

Nobody who wants? to stay compatible uses AS numbers above
64.535 (> 64.512 is similar to RFC1918 in Ipv4Adress Space: PRIVATE)
Section 10 Reserved AS Numbers
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1930
You may use 32 bit AS-Numbers as IBGP (like redistributed OSPF) but never (except you don?t want your upstream/uplink-peering to adminstartively take down your link-interface) try to use them in the ?real world?.

If I was just ?left to my own devices i probably could? ?! Würde man mich an meine eigenen (Router-)geräte lassen würde könnte ich das möglicherweise ?
