Hi Auckland Peers,
Please be aware that soon(ish) we are expecting an increase in prefixes on the��Auckland��MegaIX Route Servers driven by��Hurricane Electric (AS6939)��connecting to the IX within the next 60 days.
If you set a maximum prefix (MaxPFX) limit on the BGP neighbours with our route servers or if you have other limitations in terms of prefixes you can receive from the route server you should start preparing.
Our new recommended MaxPFX setting is always maintained in route-server peeringdb entries (Auckland��@��https://peeringdb.com/net/12814) in case you automate this.
��
For reference our��Auckland��Route servers are AS63839,
43.243.22.1 &��43.243.22.2
2001:dea:0:40::1 &��2001:dea:0:40::2
��
The new recommended minimum MaxPFX settings are,
IPv4 65,000
IPv6 35,000
��
If you are not sure if your router is able to handle such a large table I would recommend filtering by AS-Path routes received from AS6939 from the route server while you investigate it so that you can experiment in a window that suits you, not just when the routes show up.
If you require any assistance please feel free to reach out to myself or our NOC team via our portal live chat or via email at��support@megaport.com��
��
Regards
Gavin

I don't think this is the right way to look at it. Those routes are going to end up in everyone's "domestic" feeds. HE should have been here on NZNOG months ago making sure everyone was OK with this and ready.
Nobody is running a 10x safety margin on their BGP limits...
