Your topology mentioned nothing about the global Internet.  If 
your concern is dampening, then "right tool for the right job" is 
dampening tuning. If you are asking advice with incomplete info,
expect inaccurate responses. 

In general, attempting to model the global Internet in your 
sandbox will fail.  There are more policies on the 'net then 
you can possibly ever imagine.  Be conservative and take every
step to maximize your connectivity.

If you want to lay out your real situation, I'm sure folks will 
assist.
