Hey, this looks pretty good. Let's hope the trend continues (if, in fact, there *is* a trend). - paul At 12:00 PM 11/29/96 -0800, Tony Bates wrote: > >Date Prefixes >231196 40687 >241196 40908 >251196 40844 >261196 41043 >271196 41074 >281196 39803 >291196 39735 >

Check this out. I'm sure we all frown on these types of folks. ----- Forwarded message from Alan Brown ----- Approved-By: Alan Brown <alan(a)MANAWATU.GEN.NZ> Reply-To: Alan Brown <alan(a)manawatu.gen.nz> From: Alan Brown <alan(a)manawatu.gen.nz> Subject: Re: A security issue of a different kind.

from looking at tony's pages, i would say there's really no trend at all. the graph he posted of table size since he started the report again has bounced up and down by several thousand routes. maybe i'm being negative but it's fluctuationg quite a bit. good to see it down in any case. -brett > Hey, this looks pretty good.

Exchanges that matter...
by Derek Elder 02 Dec '96

02 Dec '96

Would someone be so kind as to email me a list of the Exchanges that matter? I.E., which ones qualify when calculating your connections for peering? Is it just the 4 NAP's and MAE-East and MAE-West? Also, do any of you have any comments on whether peering standards might be relaxed if you are setting up a statewide educational network? | Derek Elder http://www.accessus.net V.P., CIO | | djelder(a)accessus.net accessU.S., Inc. 888-637-3638 Ext. 222 |

While I'm on a roll of exploiting NANOG's collective expertise, perhaps someone could email the IOS level (and perhaps card revision level) that they have had the most luck with on a 75xx with RSP2 with AIP-DS3 and OC3 cards. | Derek Elder http://www.accessus.net V.P., CIO | | djelder(a)accessus.net accessU.S., Inc. 888-637-3638 Ext. 222 |

Ditto, Boardwatch is an excellent resource. I have just received the Quarterly Directory for Fall 1996 and it contains as up-to-the minute info as possible on the National providers. Their subscription department is best reached via the web - calling in is not a productive process. Good luck. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Re: national stats. on ISP qty/size?
