George Michaelson, Randy Bush and myself have successfully tested the
implementation of 4Byte AS BGP on a public Internet transit. The
above BGP RIB snapshot was taken at a 4Byte BGP speaker in North
America, showing a transit path across AS 1221, AS 4637, AS 1239 and
AS 3130 , with correct reconstruction of the originating AS at the
other (4Byte AS) end.
The code base used was OpenBGPD, with 4 byte patches that I've added
to the code in the past couple of weeks.
(Patched versions of openbgpd to include 4-byte AS support can be
found at http://www.potaroo.net/tools/bgpd/)
cheers,
Geoff
