This is an auto-generated mail on Fri Mar 16 23:00:00 PST 2001 It is not checked before it leaves my workstation. However, hopefully you will find this report interesting and will take the time to look through this to see if you can improve the amount of aggregation you perform. The report is split into sections: 0) General Status List the route table history for the last week, list any possibly bogus routes seen and give some status on ASes. 1) Gains by aggregating at the origin AS level This lists the "Top 30" players who if they decided to aggregate their announced classful prefixes at the origin AS level could make a significant difference in the reduction of the current size of the Internet routing table. This calculation does not take into account the inclusion of holes when forming an aggregate so it is possible even larger reduction should be possible. 2) Weekly Delta A summary of the last weeks changes in terms of withdrawn and added routes. Please note that this is only a snapshot but does give some indication of ASes participating in CIDR. Clearly, it is generally a good thing to see a large amont of withdrawls. 3) Interesting aggregates Interesting here means not an aggregate made as a set of classful routes. Thanks to xara.net for giving me access to their routing tables once a day. Please send any comments about this report directly to me.

Hello, Quote from "The Cidr Report": } ASnum NetsNow NetsCIDR NetGain % Gain Description } AS1221 1594 1194 400 25.1% Telstra Pty Ltd } AS226 149 93 56 37.6% Los Nettos Seeing the same few big providers in the report each week is of course disheartening, but seeing these two stay on the list is in my opinion even worse through disillusionment. Telstra because they themselves give the impression of caring about the global routing table size by maintaining the graph of its growth over the years. And Los Nettos / ISI because they give the impression of being a sort of authority on networking know-how by associating themselves with several related services and projects. -- Aleksi Suhonen
