What I hear you saying, in your references to the DFZ/core, is that you
aren't happy with the notion that there's a large part of the internetwork
in which more or less all destinations are reachable? If so, in effect,
you're visualizing a system in which reachability is less ubiquitous? I.e.
for a given destination address X, there will be significant parts of the
internetwork from which a packet sent to X will not reach X - and not
because of access controls which explicitly prevent it, but simply because
that part of the internetwork doesn't care to carry routing information for
that destination. Is that right?
what I read into it is... the future internet might not be structured as
it is today, we might get a "internet" on the side which don't touch the
DFZ at all. Mostly regionbased traffic...
