non-rate limited, automatable Looking Glasses?

Sun Jul 19 07:05:50 UTC 2020

Hi Jared,

As I hinted at in the initial mail: The Atlas probes of an AS are often 
far apart from the BGP-feeding routers of the same AS; thus, it's 
unlikely that both devices share the same control plane information 
which makes it pointless to measure differences.

Best regards,

Lars
