Odd BGP AS Path
by Heath Jones 23 Sep '10

23 Sep '10

Hi all, Probably a silly question, but can anyone explain to me this: 3561 3356 9031 {35821,35821,35821,35821} i To explain it a bit better, I'm looking at real routing information from routeviews (#3). According to RFC 4271 (9.2.2.2 Aggregating Routing Information): > For the purpose of aggregating AS_PATH attributes, we model > each AS within the AS_PATH attribute as a tuple <type, value>, > where "type" identifies a type of the path segment the AS > belongs to (e.g., AS_SEQUENCE, AS_SET), and "value" identifies > the AS number. > ... > No tuple of type AS_SET with the same value SHALL appear > more than once in the aggregated AS_PATH. Am I misreading things, or is this path information out of spec? Cheers Heath

Hi, I have been tasked to get the best IDS and IPS for our internal LAN and WAN in a Banking infrastructure. I would like ask if any one has deployed in any network with such technology, and also if any one can recommend a very good IDS and IPS for me to recommend to management Thank you. Joshua

We ran a demo/pilot od ISS in our production network for a couple of monthes and were pleased with it. Junipers IDP is another product to look at. I am currently running IDP and it was a better fit than ISS for us.

All argument aside about whether these products are worthwhile (hopefully) I am having a very strange and random technical problem with one of these boxes and I know in the past there were folks on NANOG who used them, if possible can anyone who falls into that category contact me off-list please? thanks, -Drew

Or perhaps an AS with multiple personality disorder ? Or an aggregator with a sssstaaammer. > please support draft-wkumari-deprecate-as-sets-00.txt It seems to me that this is really deprecating the aggregation of routes by BGP, except where the result is an existing less specific route ? That obviously means that AS_SET would not be necessary, but as an effect rather than the cause. One could also dump the AGGREGATOR and the AS4_AGGREGATOR attributes in the nearest waste bin. AND it would simplify the merging of AS_PATH and AS4_PATH attributes, which is a complete dogs breakfast... because it tries, in vain, to finesse its way out of the problem of an AS2 speaker aggregating routes with AS4_PATHs ! [Made even more galling by the sure and certain knowledge that aggregated routes are as exquisitely rare as they are useful.] And what about the truly, madly, deeply useless AS_CONFED_SET ? [A carbuncle's carbuncle if ever I saw one.] Vote early and vote often, say I. Chris
