Andrew,
AS 690 meant only 140.222 in rcp_routed days and gated was kludged
to continue to do that. The new networks that come from AS 690
are actually directly attached DMZs and gated treats them as
part of AS 690. As the routing on ANSNet changes, there are no
ASes we can associtae with these DMZs so we let gated do the
right thing, announce local networks with its own AS. But why
is this a problem as long as our neighbors receive 140.222 and
default to that?
