BGP Analysis BOF at NANOG-35

Sat Oct 22 09:47:16 UTC 2005

Dear All,

This NANOG meeting in LA will feature a BGP Analysis Tools BOF on  
Monday afternoon. The purpose of this BOF is to showcase some  
existing free BGP analysis tools. (http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0510/ 
lad.html)

  Link-Rank is one of the tools to be presented in this BOF. Link- 
Rank is a tool used to visualize BGP routing dynamics and a new  
version is now freely available from http://linkrank.cs.ucla.edu/

At last Nanog, we got some requests from operators who were  
interested in visualizing their own dynamics instead of Routeviews  
and RIPE. Keeping this in mind, we have setup a temporary web service  
where you can upload a small period of your ISP's BGP data to our web  
server. This data will then be processed and made visualization ready  
by NANOG time, so during the BGP analysis BOF, you can contact us and  
be able to see your ISPs routing dynamics.
For more information goto:

We highly encourage you to upload a MRT format Rib file and a small  
period (a few hours) of MRT format BGP update logs to see if you can  
find LinkRank useful at your ISP. Please email me if you have any  
questions.

Thanks
