The Cidr Report

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Sep 22 12:00:00 PDT 2000 It is not checked before it leaves my workstation. However, hopefully you will find this report interesting and will take the time to look through this to see if you can improve the amount of aggregation you perform. The report is split into sections: 0) General Status List the route table history for the last week, list any possibly bogus routes seen and give some status on ASes. 1) Gains by aggregating at the origin AS level This lists the "Top 30" players who if they decided to aggregate their announced classful prefixes at the origin AS level could make a significant difference in the reduction of the current size of the Internet routing table. This calculation does not take into account the inclusion of holes when forming an aggregate so it is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes. Please note that this is only a snapshot but does give some indication of ASes participating in CIDR. Clearly, it is generally a good thing to see a large amont of withdrawls. 3) Interesting aggregates Interesting here means not an aggregate made as a set of classful routes. Thanks to xara.net for giving me access to their routing tables once a day. Please send any comments about this report directly to me.

DB RPSL migration task force
by kieber＠ga-telecom.net 15 Sep '00

15 Sep '00

Re, at RIPE37 we have agreed to put a task force in place to prepare for migration to the new RPSL database, and I'd like to take the opportunity and solicit for members to this task force. Purpose of this task force should be finding the bugs in the new code before it is put to real work. Please review the migration plan at http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db/reimp/new-transition-v3.ps We also want to raise awareness that the new database is actually in RPSL format, so there are some significant changes to RIPE-181 format. If you are using scripts to query or update the database its very likely you have to adapt those scripts and the task force would like to benefit from your experiences when playing with the new database and testing your tools. While RIPE NCC is using a test suite to test the new database the best test is having real users beat on it. Remember, you will have to live with the bugs the task force doesn't find. If you are interested in participating, please, get back to me and I'll have you added to the mailing list <reimp-mig-tf(a)ripe.net> -- Ulf Kieber email: kieber(a)ga-telecom.net Network Engineer voice: +49-69-299896-21 Global Access Telecommunications, Inc. fax : +49-69-299896-40 internet solutions for business www : www.ga-telecom.net

RIPE NCC Region Weekly Routing Report
by Routing Analysis 15 Sep '00

15 Sep '00

This is an automated weekly mailing sent to the RIPE Routing WG e-mail list describing the state of the Internet Routing Table in Europe, Middle East and North Africa. Daily listings are sent to bgp-stats(a)lists.apnic.net For a graphical representation, please see http://www.apnic.net/stats/bgp.

2nd draft Routing WG agenda - significant changes
by SchmitzJo＠aol.com 12 Sep '00

12 Sep '00

Dear colleagues, we found quite some overlap between the Routing and the Database WGs. Accordingly, we both aligned our schedules. Therefore, there are some changes to the agenda... please find below the 2nd draft of the Routing WG agenda for: Thursday, 14-September, 9:00 Routing WG session The most prominent change compared to the 1st draft is not only rearranging of presentations, but the 2nd slot to be run as a joint session together with the Database WG, dealing with transition issues to the new database. As usual comments, additions, changes to the agenda of the Routing WG welcome! --- R I P E 3 7 A M S T E R D A M Routing Working Group Session 14-September-2000 Draft Agenda - 1. slot - Note: this slot is dedicated to Routing WG issues, and is going to be held in room St.John's II A. Preliminaries (Joachim Schmitz) (5min) - introduction - participants' list - volunteering of scribe - agenda bashing - RIPE 36 minutes - actions from earlier meetings C. RADB Update (Gerald Winters) (20min) E. RIS, Status and Plans (Antony Antony, Henk Uijterwaal) (10min) F. Routing Registry Consistency Project (Shane Kerr) (10min) G.

Promoting European IP Multicast deployment - Introducing the European IP Multicast Initiative (EuMI) (Tony Ballardie) (10min) Note: we will slightly run overtime in the first slot with the changed agenda, but this is intended (the same will happen with the DB WG) - 2. slot - Note: this is a joint slot with the Database WG, and will be taking place in the Grand Ballroom which is big enough to hold people of both WGs B. RIPE Database Software Re-Implementation and Transition to RPSL (Andrei Robachevski, Joao Luis Silva Damas) (40min) Y.

The Cidr Report
by Tony Bates 08 Sep '00

08 Sep '00

This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Sep 8 12:00:00 PDT 2000 It is not checked before it leaves my workstation. However, hopefully you will find this report interesting and will take the time to look through this to see if you can improve the amount of aggregation you perform. The report is split into sections: 0) General Status List the route table history for the last week, list any possibly bogus routes seen and give some status on ASes. 1) Gains by aggregating at the origin AS level This lists the "Top 30" players who if they decided to aggregate their announced classful prefixes at the origin AS level could make a significant difference in the reduction of the current size of the Internet routing table. This calculation does not take into account the inclusion of holes when forming an aggregate so it is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes. Please note that this is only a snapshot but does give some indication of ASes participating in CIDR. Clearly, it is generally a good thing to see a large amont of withdrawls. 3) Interesting aggregates Interesting here means not an aggregate made as a set of classful routes. Thanks to xara.net for giving me access to their routing tables once a day. Please send any comments about this report directly to me.

Routing comment

Hello, In reading the IOS Essentials for ISP's PDF, ver 2.84 http://www.cisco.com/public/cons/isp/documents/IOSEssentialsPDF.zip i came across something I believe might need a little bit of clarification. I dont know if many ISP's use this method or not, but i find it particularly usefull. On page 29, under the Caveats section, specifically the routing protocols part, it is stated that : ". Routing Protocols. If a routing protocol needs to be run over this link, it is operationally much easier to use IP addresses. Don't use "ip unnumbered" if the customer is peering with you using BGP across the link, or if the link is an internal backbone link. Simply use a network with a /30 address mask. (Routing will work over unnumbered links but the extra management and operational complexity probably outweighs the small address space advantage gained.) " Using Ip unnumbered and BGP is something that works extremely well, in the following case. The wan interface is unnumbered to the ethernet interface. The ethernet interface is using a primary IP that is the one that should be configured on the WAN interface, and a secondary IP that is the LAN IP In most cases, the Provider will want to peer its BGP session to the IP it assigned the customer. This setup allows the BGP session to be peered to the Ethernet interface, which in turns leeds to an end to end point of failure, from the Ethernet Interface, to the Wan Interface. This succesfully allows the ISP to monitor the customer's network availability without the use of piningin methods, and relying solely upon the well being of the BGP session. If this message is off list topic, i apologize for the inconvenience.
