FI! The curse of cut and paste on insufficient coffee ! That link should be http://www.multicasttech.com/status/bgp.sum There is http://www.multicasttech.com/status/mbgp.sum for ASN with multicast MBGP reachability, as well.

That wouldn't constitute a complete answer because there are MANY local ISPs that aggregate under a regional. Also, not all regionals (yes, I've found some exceptions <Qwest?>) use BGP either. Then there is the old route pre-fixing problem. Not many ISPs, smaller than /19, are going to be doing effective ASN's either. > From: bmanning(a)vacation.karoshi.com > [mailto:bmanning@vacation.karoshi.com] > Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2001 2:21 AM > > how many active ASN's are there? > > > > > > > > I was actually thinking along IAP (Internet Access > Provider) lines.

Have your own address blocks ? I can think of clear ISP's that do not do have an ASN, or run BGP, or... At any rate, there is a list of ASN reachable from us by BGP at /home/httpd/html/MCAST/status/bgp.sum There are 11313 as of this morning. Also, of course, Boardwatch maintains a list of US ISP's.

I would be glad for similar lists from RIPE and APNIC. Note that this list includes some ASN blocks, and needs to be "expanded" before use in a spread sheet. I have a awk routine to do this...

I'm personally more pleased with the network operators that dealt with the problem. Thanks, Guys! I'm not exactly sure what the White House did. The above web page also confirms that http://*.mil:80 is currently unavailable. I guess the military should contact the White House to see how to go about fixing the problem. AlanC

Sprint is the worst for pre-fix filtering for all but their own customers. I recently went through this with my old /24.

I was actually thinking along IAP (Internet Access Provider) lines.

Netflow bug on 3-GE cards (Trident) in Cisco GSRs
by Dani Roisman 24 Jul '01

24 Jul '01

Hey folks, Sharing some knowledge to try and save frustration. I think this is on-topic, forgive me if it isn't. We were struggling to get netflow to work on our 3-port GigE cards in our GSRs. I'll spare you the ugly details, but a few maintenance windows and many useless TAC calls later, we finally were directed to the following Cisco Bug ID: CSCdu72555 Turns out you can only run netflow on the first port of a 3-GigE port on the current S-tract software rev. If you have been struggling with this as well, I'm eager to hear about it off-list. Have a great weekend. - Dani
