by Mirjam Kuehne 29 May '22

29 May '22

Dear colleagues, The deadline for comments for the revised PDP documents was set to Friday this week (27 May). Considering that we all have a lot to follow-up with after RIPE 84 and that there is a holiday tomorrow in some countries, I would like to extend the deadline to Monday, 30 May 2022 before 06:00 UTC. Please let us know what you think so we can understand whether the revised version enjoys community consensus.

Router-Based Path Selection
by Krähenbühl Cyrill 12 May '22

12 May '22

Dear RIPE community, My name is Cyrill Krähenbühl and I'm a PhD student in the network security group of ETH Zürich (https://netsec.ethz.ch). As part of my PhD, I'm working on a research project about path selection in path-aware networks. In particular, this project is focused on selecting paths based on the properties of the forwarding devices, i.e., routers, on a path. Part of the project is to investigate relevant path properties for various users of a path-aware network. I would highly appreciate feedback from members of the RIPE community, given their tremendous experience in this area. To capture the feedback, I created a short questionnaire (which should take less than 5 minutes to fill out), where you can give your opinion on which router properties are relevant for users of a path-aware network (from the perspective of a user and a network operator). Questionnaire Link: https://forms.gle/uR5CxPbLYRoLL8YB7 Thank you very much for taking the time and filling out the questionnaire to provide us with valuable inputs for our research! I would also be happy to share any interesting findings from the survey with this mailing list if people are interested in the results. Best Regards, Cyrill Krähenbühl
