Weekly Routing Table Report

Fri Aug 30 20:40:17 UTC 2019

The hope is the v6 DFZ will not grow nearly as fast because of far less fragmentation.

But who knows?

Also, even today TCAM ain’t cheap. Let’s hope it those numbers are not “nothing”.

The Internet has transformed from a curiosity into something my son[*] and a good portion of his entire generation cannot conceive of living without.
