The milnet routing problem I reported earlier on this list may be
largely resolved. (Note my caution. Overconfidence tripped me up
before.)  If progress has been made it has largely been the
result of advice I received on this list and the help of
Wollongong support staff.  The version of gated which Wollongong
is currently providing resolved the problem I had with receiving
routing updates.  The updates began to flow which moved us to
a new phase of the problem.

In the second phase of the problem we noted that the size of the
routing table varied widely.  By looking at the egp trace we
determined that if we aqiured different neighbors we got very
different routing updates.  We were still using the old LSI-11
gateways so we "re-homed" to the BMB gateways.  This was done this
morning and so far, so good.  We seem to have complete routing
tables and to be keeping them.

Wish us luck.
