here's a plot showing the impact on BGP routing tables from seven ISPs (plotted using route-views data): http://www.research.att.com/~griffin/bgp_monitor/sql_worm.html
And as an interesting counterpoint to this, this graph shows the number of BGP routing updates received at MIT before, during, and after the worm (3 day window). Tim's plots showed that the number of actual routes at the routers he watched was down significantly - these plots show that the actual BGP traffic was up quite a bit. Probably the withdrawals that were taking routes away from routeviews...

Wow, for a minute I thought I was looking at one of our old plots, except for the fact that the x-axis says January 2003 and not September 2001 :) :) Your plot is consistent with what we saw on Saturday as well. Looks much like a "little Nimda." Blast from the past: http://www.renesys.com/projects/bgp_instability --jim ---------- James Cowie Renesys Corporation http://gradus.renesys.com
