That's the point of section 1.5. Is it possible that > this passage has confused you? You wrote: To those peers, the organization announces a route to the network containing the shared-unicast address of the root name server. which means multiple organizations, each of which having its own AS numbers, are the multiple origins of the shared address. That there is consistent routing in an organization does not mean a single address have a single origin. Masataka Ohta
