Hello folks,
This is actually NANOG applicable, despite referring to RIPE... ;-)
How many of you who manage BGP speaking networks implement the RIPE
"best practices" regarding dampening parameters for so-called "golden
networks"?
See: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/routeflap-damping.html
and
http://www.qorbit.net/documents/golden-networks (thanks, Steve!)
If you do, what parameters do you use, or do you not dampen the "golden
networks" at all?
If you don't implement ripe-229, why not?
If there is enough interest/response (i.e if anyone besides me feels
this is a real operational issue currently and wants to deal with it),
I'll work on compiling the responses and producing a report.
Note: A *significant* number of networks appear to *not* follow
ripe-229 guidelines at all.
Thanks,
Rodney Joffe
