I am doing some research for our company regarding 32 bit ASN numbers.  I am 
trying to locate information about vendor and service provider support.  In 
particular I have not been able to find what Cisco IOS image I would need to 
load on our router to support 32 bit ASN's.  I also want to know what 
experience people have had with service provider support of 32 bit ASN's
