I'd imagine the vast majority of the customers of ISPs who are facing this
issue would react either with anger or non-comprehension if presented with such
a position. If you were running such a network, would you risk it?
than for an allocation that will force that
"renumber or upgrade" position as soon as, e.g., ISPs merge or
discover a need for an extra layer or CGN.
I'm confused: why would an ISP merge/extra layer of CGN for the ISP to relay
that position to their customers? My impression is that we're talking about
ISP-side (only) . I'd think this would be handled by the ISP changing the IP
address on the WAN side of the CPE via normal provisioning systems if/whern
collisions occur with the merged/layered network.
