cool stuff

Folks,

Combining routing registry information can make things look very nice:

[rijp-25] ./prtraceroute -lv ftp.barrnet.net
traceroute with AS and policy additions [Nov 16 16:12:29 UTC]

                from AS3333 rijp.ripe.net (193.0.0.132)
                to    AS200 NIC1.BARRNET.NET (131.119.245.5)

AS Path followed:  AS3333 AS1128 AS1804 AS1800 AS690 AS200

AS3333 = RIPE NCC

AS1800 = ICM-Atlantic
 AS690 = NSFNET Configurations
 AS200 = BARRNET-AS

This is when I was playing with the latest version of prtraceroute
that understands the new ripe-181 format for as-in/out and routes,
plus also inet-rtr. It actually needs info on inet-rtr because host
address 192.203.229.246 is only available in the MERIR PRDB as an
interface of ENSS 145.... We'll get there ... ;-) prpath is next.

Also I am doing this to test our new database machine. We have a
Sparc-5 clone to replace the ELC we have been running the database on
for years. Quite an improvement in indexing and lookups....
