If a 2-byte ASN comes available and no one immediately requests an explicit
2-byte ASN, will you reissue the 2-byte ASN to the next non-explicit ASN
requester (who presumably would be just as happy with a 4-byte ASN), or do
you keep the 2-byte ASN in inventory until the next explicit 2-byte ASN
request?
