RE: Hey, anyone who wanna help improve the net stability?
It seems the problem is number of flaps, etc. Doesn't it make sense to simply start dropping the routes that flap the most? Of course this will be biased in the /24 space but at least the rationale/solution maps identically to a solid reason. To what extent is this flapping due to basically static information being propogated? One solution would be to nail these routes ... Cheers, peter ----------

I know that Sprint was talking about doing this (damping /24s harder than /23s harder than ...). Is it implemented or about to be implemented? Avi

We implement it into AS1849 (UUNETPIPEX) (UK) in a streamlined form and it works fine. Doesn't reduce the number of routes in the table though :-( Haven't been effected by any route flaps just recently though :) --Tony
