Some real data, these are test results for throughput (max zero loss rate) for the Novell multiprotocol router running on a 486 box. these results are for ethernet to ethernet through a T1 line, the limiting factor is the T1. There are more sults on hsdndev.harvard.edu in pub/ndtl. Small packets run at about a half T1, large packets at about 75%. The limit is not in the PC it is in the serial line interface. (the same PC can run at more than 50Mb/sec fddi to fddi.)

BSD/386 can handle full routing table with some amount of tweaking. Also, gated becomes essentially useless as soon as system starts to do paging; so it's better 64Mb or more :-) Reliability of 486 platforms... closer to non-existant. ciscos do not cost $$$s for nothing. Also, ciscos are much more manageable. There are several real-life E-1 BSD/386 routers in the Internet, though owners want to replace them with ciscos (capacity problems). --vadim

BGP4 software info
by Jessica Yu 26 Apr '94

26 Apr '94

Hi, I received 17 responses since I sent my message yesterday. Thanks to those who responded quickly and provide the information. Below is a summary of the responses. It shows the kind of software version people are using on the hardware platform they have and the network protocols they are supporting. Hope this gives those who are planning on or in the process of deploying BGP4 some idea of what software version to use. --Jessica Vendor Platform Software Version Prots in addition to IP ====== ======== ================ ======================= 1.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(0.11) 2.Cisco AGS+,3000 10.0 CLNP,DECNet 3.3Com NETBuilder II SW/NBII-HS, 6.2.2 4.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(4879) 5.Cisco 4000 10.0(0.14) 6.Cisco AGS+ 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 7.Cisco AGS+ 10.0(0.5) 8.Cisco 4000 9.21(5192) 9.Cisco AGS+ 9.21+bgp4(2.5) 10.Cisco AGS+ 9.21(5362) 11.Telebit RC5000 SWIP version 4.2 Communications 12.Cisco CGS,AGS,AGS+,4000,7000 10.0(0.14) CLNP 13.Cisco 4000 9.21+BGP4(2.1) Cisco AGS+ 10.0(4879) 14.Cisco AGS+,7000 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 15.DEC DS5000/200 Ultrix 4.2, & Cornell gated R3.5A3 16.Cisco AGS+,3000,7000 9.21+BGP4(2.2) 17.Cisco AGS+,7000 10(0.14) Other information: one has to have at least 16MB momery in order to load BGP4 software on cisco routers.

Type "whois -h prdb.merit.edu help" for details. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT CHANGES: (Updated March 24, 1994) Metric:AS(NSS) - Historically, peer networks with multiple connections to AS 690 could only select which of those connections their networks would take by creating "Fake" AS numbers, and using those in the PRDB Metric:AS announcement lists. Some time in the next few weeks we will begin supporting an expanded syntax, where the AS may be followed by an optional NSS peer number in parentheses. Eventually, this syntax will be used to replace most or all of the current Fake ASs. This change will affect *all* places that the announcement lists are reported: all whois queries, all network reports, this "NWG" report, and the Auto-NACR. If you have code which parses these announcement lists, please be aware that that code may need modifications soon. CIDR Reports: There is a new "whois" option to list aggregates in the PRDB: whois -h prdb.merit.edu listaggs will produce a listing of the currently registered aggregates. There is also a new report on "nestings" of PRDB-registered aggregates with their more specific routes: nets.non-classful. Anyone considering configuring an aggregate into the PRDB (and you all should be!) is encouraged to pre-check that aggregate by typing the command: whois -h prdb.merit.edu 'aggchk <agg>' (where "<agg>" is the aggregate description). This command will list all of the other entries in the PRDB that are more specific routes of <agg>, as well as any aggregates all ready configured that contain <agg>. The output includes the AUP and announcement lists of each of the nets printed, with discrepancies flagged. This is the same program that we use for sanity-checking the NACRs that you submit. The archived discussion list "db-disc(a)merit.edu" exists for discussion of PRDB issues. Send a message to "db-disc-request(a)merit.edu" to subscribe. --Dale Johnson (dsj(a)merit.edu) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please send all requests for configuration changes to nsfnet-admin(a)merit.edu using the NSFNET configuration forms.

Do a "cd nsfnet/announced.networks" and get the files template.net, template.net.README, template.gate, and template.as. *** Note: As of March 1, 1994, NSFNET AUP NACRs must use the template.net *** (NACR) version 7.1, or the NACR will be returned unprocessed. ******************************* --Steve Widmayer Merit/NSFNET skw(a)merit.edu --Enke Chen Merit/NSFNET enke(a)merit.edu --Steven J.

this week's CIDR progress report
by Jessica Yu 25 Apr '94

25 Apr '94

Hi, Between 4/15 - 4/22, NSF/ANSNet routing table growth is as follows: 04/15/94 19688 04/16/94 na 04/17/94 na 04/18/94 19496 04/19/94 19467 04/20/94 18740 04/21/94 18729 04/22/94 18596 Note it actually has negative growth. (Also, note: 4/22's table size is counted as of 11:00 am today.) The routes withdrawn during 4/15-4/22 is 1487. The following ASs have withdrawn more specific routes from the NSFNET/ANSNet routing table during this period of time: 2551 NETCOMM 440 200 BARRnet 212 600 OARNet 195 685 NorthWestNet 137 1800 ICM-Atlantic 117 701 AlertNet 112 2548 DIGEX 87 204 PSCNET 86 1133 CERN/DANTE 52 114 SESQUINET 29 1324 ANS-NewYork Connection 15 1240 ICM-Pacific 5 Note: this is based on data gathered before 11:00 am today. Routes withdrawn afterwards are not counted here. New challenges: There are 565 routes co-existing with its aggregate in the routing table currently, that is they can be withdrawn as we speak. ASs who advertise these nets PLEASE withdrawn them. --Jessica

Hi, For those who already run BGP4, would you please provide the following information: Vendor routers (e.g. Cisco, Proteon ...etc) Hardward platform (e.g. Cisco 7000, 4000 .. etc) Software version other info which you think is valuable for new users We have been asked about these kinds of questions from people who are working on deploying BGP4. Please help. Please send your information to me. I will summerize it and post it to the list. Thanks! --jessica

I used to see table size differences of a few hundred routes, which I mostly attributed to the few days of lag time in getting new CIX routes registered in the PRDB. ANS-CIX (AS 1957) has a new policy for the past week or two which is to stop automatically registering the CIX-only routes (routes known to the CIX which are not registered by another AS 690 service provider) in the PRDB. I understand they are working out a new policy for getting these CIX-only routes registed in the PRDB. This could account for some of the table size discrepency. Also, as service providers register aggregates in the PRDB, AS 1957 component routes are removed, unless for policy purposes the service provider requests and ANS agrees to leave the AS 1957 component networks configured. This could account for several hundred CIX-only component routes that have recently disappeared from the AS 690 routing tables, but which may still be announced to the CIX. Also, there always seem to be a handful of routes (maybe about 20 ?) which are known to the CIX but which are not registered in the PRDB because they cannot be verified as having been assigned from address space delegated to the InterNIC or RIPE. --Steve Widmayer

Meeting Info
by Pam Ciesla 22 Apr '94

22 Apr '94

I have blocked rooms at the following hotel: Holiday Inn (313)769-9800 3800 Plymouth Rd Ann Arbor, MI $61.00 single or double The block is available for June 1, 2, 3, & 4. Rooms must be reserved by May 20. Please mention Merit Network when registering. The Michigan League and the *Campus Inn (*might have rooms to release at the end of next week) are book for the meeting dates. DIRECTIONS to the Holiday Inn: >From Detroit Metro take I 94 west to US 23 north. Exit at Plymouth Road. Turn left onto Plymouth Road cross over the expressway and turn left into the hotel parking lot. To the Chysler Center Continue on Plymouth Road to Murfin (4th traffic light) turn left, pass 2 stop signs, just befor you get to the 3rd stop sign turn left into the parking lot. This puts you behind the North Campus Commons. You must go through this building to get to the Chrysler Center where the meeting is being held. Oh yea :*) did I mention construction?? We are missing the parking lot that use to be next to the Chrysler Ctr. The Holiday Inn has offered to run a shuttle between the hotel and the meeting depending on the how many people and the time. I would like to suggest 8:30am drop-off 5:15pm pickup for 6/2 and 8:30 drop-off 3pm(?) pickup for 6/3. If you will be staying at the Holiday Inn let me know if this is something you want. ANYONE WITH SPECIAL DIET LET ME KNOW AND PLEASE REGISTER SOON. Thanks Pam Ciesla
