As we get things going, there will probably be times where routing becomes sub-optimal (or, in fact, completely broken :) Could I suggest that people going ahead with BGP across NZIX announce their progress to this list to help everybody track down problems if (when) they arise?
Good idea - I've had similar thoughts to this recently (mainly due to the fact that I dredged out the BGP RFC's for another look). With so many parties involved there is the chance that this could turn `sub-optimal'. Just FMI is there anyone else on the list that is not running ANY BGP at the mo?
[*] Not having route objects stored in a RR of some kind is going to make maintaining route filters a sticky business for all concerned. There is running code at Merit - do we have loose agreement that the RADB is a suitable place to do this? If there is interest, I am happy to dredge through the appropriate documentation and produce a quick-and-dirty guide to RADB object manipulation.
Yeah Merit seems a good choice. Would it be wise to have a secondary as well? Or is that just being paranoid =) Oh and Joe RADB 101 is a good idea too. Dean --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
