This document makes recommendations regarding the use of unique
origin autonomous system numbers (ASNs) per node for globally
anycasted critical infrastructure services in order to provide
routing system discriminators for a given anycasted prefix.  Network
management and monitoring techniques, or other operational mechanisms,
may employ this new discriminator in whatever manner best
accommodates their operating environment.  This memo documents an 
Internet Best Current Practice.

This document is a product of the Global Routing Operations Working Group of the IETF.


BCP: This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the
Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for 
improvements. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
