Points out the need to secure the routing system with RPKI or similar. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/04/10/bgp_glitch/. This raises lots of 'what ifs' for example can we tell if huawei is not going to route us through china since they are the ones laying the infamous data backbones? Is Huawei going to manage the network for UG as well? If so, what advantage would routing via China bring? I am sure the network has capable ppl advising it on Internet resource issues (Badru has been encouraging them to get a GoU netblock/ASN for a long time now.) > Or What else is going on out there that appears or we miss as blips? This sort of thing has happened quite a few times.
