Dave Meyer is trying to overcome this with his new route viewer (route-views.uoregon.edu), analogous to Pushpendra's. He is getting multi-hop BGP from Europe (thanks RIPE), Japan (thanks IIJ), and MAE-West (no, LA would probably not be an interesting addition:-) to get widely disparate and hence interesting views of the infrastructure. It would be prettier if he could ip as-path access-list 142 permit ^NAS_ route-map peerN-in permit 1 match as-path 142 sed-path s/^NAS_// ! or maybe set as-path un-prepend NAS ... neighbor 42.666.7.11 remote-as NAS neighbor 42.666.7.11 route-map peerN-in in to clean the first AS off the path, as it looks tacky. But I suspect cisco would fear the impact of such a knob on their support folk. I do not think this approach would be overly useful for Tony's CIDR report. It is not a debugging tool, but an overall trend chart. The constant measurement point and relative measure is what I find useful. randy - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
