Greetings all,
The fuss over shim6, routing table size, and long-prefix PI space has
intrigued me. I've started analyzing some [simulated] FIBs and believe
I may have found something interesting. In the name of statistical
sampling, I'd like to analyze some other [simulated] FIBs from different
BGP views.
Would anyone be interested in donating "show ip bgp" output? I assume
most people are familiar with script(1), but will mention it here, in
passing, "just in case". Compressed via bzip2 or rzip strongly
preferred; there's a reason I'm not keen to try this on public route
servers. ;-)
Email is fine for up to a few megabytes. If anyone feels like sending
output from so many routers that even a compressed tarball exceeds that,
ping me to set up an FTP drop.
Network topology and size matter not. "The more the merrier" when it
comes to data analysis. :-)
TIA,
Eddy
