Hi, Folks: The high growth rate of routing table is comming back. We gained 134 routes last week and that is all time high since CIDR got widely deployed dated back in Apr. It is time to do SOMETHING at your AS to bring the number down. If you have not run BGP4 yet, run BGP4 or delegate your CIDR capable neibhbor to do proxy aggregate. If you have already run BGP4 but not doing aggregate, advertise aggregate and withdrawn more specific routes. Do something now and let's see the number next week. --jessica -------------------- This past week's (between 6/10 12:00(edt) - 6/17 12:00(edt)) CIDR progress from AS690's point view: Route table growth: 134 routes (ALARM!!! ) Route withdrawn: 36 routes The following ASs and/or ASs behind them have withdrawn more specific routes during the period: 97 JvNCnet 17 701 AlterNet 9 1800 ICM-Atlantic 5 3577 PREPnet-WEST 1 293 ESNet 1 2551 NETCOM 1 1957 ANSCIX-AS 1 1329 ANS Greensboro 1 New challenges: There are 1081 routes co-existing with its aggregate in the routing table currently, that is they can be withdrawn as we speak. ASs who advertise these routes PLEASE withdrawn them. A list of withdrawable routes will be sent to the contact individual ASs. Thanks! --jessica
