Message-ID: <200502111110.j1BBALV0011944@x12.ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce that we have relocated the RIS Project's second North American Remote Route Collector at PAIX, Palo Alto. We are now ready to peer with PAIX members. We would like to thank Paul Vixie and ISC for their help. RRC14, has been operating since December 2004. It has an interface on the shared PAIX network and runs both IPv4 and IPv6. It collects routing information from all exchange members who peer with us. - Our peering addresses are: IPv4: 198.32.176.6 IPv6: 3ffe:80a::9 - Our AS number is: 12654 - Our policy: http://www.ripe.net/projects/ris/docs/rrc14.html The Routing Information Service (RIS) started as a RIPE NCC project in 1999. It has grown to over 300 IPv4 and IPv6 peers at twelve data collection points in Europe, Japan and North America. We collect and make available BGP routing information by devising tools that can help ISPs debug problems without being limited to a BGP view. We provide RIS raw data regarding the historical development of the Internet. If you want to peer with the RIS, please send an e-mail to or use the web form that you can find at: http://www.ris.ripe.net/peerreg.cgi You can find more information about RIS at: http://www.ripe.net/ris/ You can find RIS tools at: http://www.ripe.net/projects/ris/tools/index.html If you have any questions or comments, please send an e-mail to .

Message-ID: <2020ceec05021115054a8853aa@mail.gmail.com> Hi, I am a new member on this list. I had a question regarding the nature of the BGP peering sessions of the RRCs. Is there any place I can find accurate information about the way the different RRCs maintain their peering sessions; as in how many of the sessions are multi-hop BGP sessions and how many are direct link sessions etc? I was wondering about this since, there has been a paper (see below) published in 2002 that said that most of the RRCs peering sessions were multi-hop eBGP sessions and as a result the BGP data collected here cannnot be an accurate refelction of what goes on the actual Internet/backbone routers. "Observation and Analysis of BGP Behavior under Stress", Proceedings of the Second ACM SIGCOMM Internet Measurement Workshop (IMW '02), pp. 183-195, Nov. 2002 Any inputs that I can get regarding this will be very helpful.

Hi, apart from RRC00 in Amsterdam, which only has multihop peerings, all the RRCs in the RIS project are located at internet exchange points and are directly connected to their peers over Ethernet. > I was wondering about this since, there has been a paper (see below) > published in 2002 that said that most of the RRCs peering sessions > were multi-hop eBGP sessions and as a result the BGP data collected > here cannnot be an accurate refelction of what goes on the actual > Internet/backbone routers. Actually, if you look at the peering statistics available on the DB status page: http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/rrcstatus.cgi you will see that the multihop sessions on RRC00 only make up a small minority of RIS peerings.

No, when we still had only RRC00 (back in 1999), all but 1 session were multihop. So, both the statement in this old paper and Lorenzo's observation are correct.

In the paper, we specifically mentioned that we used RRC00's data and all the BGP sessions at RRC00 used multi-hop peering. So what we concluded is that data from multi-hop peerings should be carefully sanitized to remove those BGP updates associated with the instability of the monitoring session (in this case, it was the session instability caused by the worm attack).

The main changes (since 3 February 2005) are: * Beacon prefixes now come from a new, larger address range 84.205.64.0/19 (instead of 195.80.224.0/20); * We now announce an "anchor prefix" corresponding to each beacon; * For each beacon and anchor prefix there is a "pingable" target at the first address in the range (beaconNN.ris.ripe.net, anchorNN.ris.ripe.net). All prefixes announced by the RIS (AS12654) are listed in the AS12654:RS-RIS 'route-set' and individual 'route' objects in the RIPE Database and are described in more detail at http://www.ripe.net/projects/ris/docs/beaconlist.html RIS peers should set any maximum prefix limit to at least the number of entries listed in the route-set (although it is unlikely that any one RRC will ever advertise more than a small subset of these prefixes). We would also like our peers to treat these prefixes in the same way that they would a customer's prefix and announce them to their other peers and upstream providers.

The objective of the experiments is to investigate new methodologies for topology discovery and experimental mechanisms for deducing the routing policies of ISP's, the quality of their connectivity, and more general properties of interdomain topology. The experiments will involve announcing AS-sets of varying lengths behind AS 12654 and are initially scheduled for the last week of February and the first week of March.
