All beacon prefixes are now announced with additional attributes. We now overload the BGP AGGREGATOR attribute to tag each announcement with a timestamp, a sequence number and the identifier of the RRC making the announcement. These are encoded as follows:
AGGREGATOR IP ADDRESS: 10.x.y.z, where x, y and z form a 24-bit count of the number of seconds between the start of the month and the time of the announcement.
AGGREGATOR AS NUMBER: 64512 + n, where n is a 10-bit number encoded asMSB LSBAdding 64512 brings the resulting number into the private AS number range.

Experimental: From 25/09/2003
an additional prefix 195.80.239.0/24 has been announced from all RRCs. This acts as an "anchor" to help differentiate between intentional beacon-related routing activity and other activity. The anchor prefix is announced with the Aggregator attribute set as follows:
Aggregator IP Address: 10.255.255.255
Aggregator AS Number: 64512 + rrc-id * 64
