Bogon filtering (don't ban me)

Sun Dec 5 14:50:56 UTC 2004

Rob,

	Just thinking out loud, but is there any reason that this
route-server methodology couldn't be applied to other 'undesirable'
destinations, such as the world's top spammers, phishing web sites, etc?
Maybe break them up into different communities, so subscribers can pick
which ones they want to filter.

Hi, Hank.

] I do as well, but does this scale?  Can Team CYMRU handle 2,000 BGP
] sessions?  20K?  200K?   -Hank

We can handle quite a lot of sessions, and already do, thanks to
the distributed nature of the Bogon route-server project.  We
have several routers deployed, and are prepared to deploy more
if necessary.

By the way we recommend that folks peer with at least two of the
Bogon route-servers.

Thanks,
Rob.
