Jared, This is good stuff and I'm understanding how you interpret the data. So this confirms what we are seeing. How do we take this towards a root cause? Mash it with the Juniper threads and see where it goes? -Hammer- "I was a normal American nerd" -Jack Herer On 11/07/2011 11:01 AM, Jared Mauch wrote:
Here's some real data for those interested. It seems a quick view seems many TATA<-> Level3 and TATA<-> GBLX sets of instability.
Combined with the overall update levels seen over that 30 minutes, we saw ~1.566M updates at route views.
Compared with the 24h prior (2011.11.06 14:15 as reference) we see ~17-20x the updates in the same time period. Now take your control plane and make it work 17-20x as hard, and you can see why we had some even general instability.
I don't have better tools for doing a more detailed analysis at this time, but this should get you started in talking to others about what happened. (There were no stand-out prefixes for this time-period, they all had about the same number of updates per prefix).
