Re: Cogent BGP session more than 1 router ipv6

[Mike Hammett <nanog () ics-il net>]

That doesn't even make any sense. IPv4 is a contended resource, but IPv6 is not. They're already double-dipping by 
charging for the extra BGP sessions.

Cogent stopped offering anything larger than a /31 IPv4 and /127 IPv6 on new DIA circuits earlier this year, when 
previously they provided a /29 IPv4 and /112 IPv6 without issue at no additional cost. Now they expect you to pay 
additional for this functionality, including for redundant sessions. Unfortunately I have not heard of any success 
stories for people getting around this as of yet. YMMV 



Kind regards,

I am trying to get our Cogent rep to give us a /124 to peer on a Cogent circuit with. We have multipl routers we want

Does anyone have the magic words or a circuit ID example you are doing multiple BGP conenctions on a single circuit?
