The project has been running informally since March of this year, and I now feel it is an appropriate time to widen the audience who are aware of this work, and to make you aware of some of the initial results. APNIC receive the full Internet routing table at their NSPIXP2 location in Japan. The analysis work basically takes a daily snapshot of this full routing table at 4am GMT+10 hours and then separates out the announcements according to several programmed criteria. These criteria include information such as the number of prefixes and ASes which are being used in this region from APNIC allocatable space. The daily statistics are available on the APNIC web site, at the URL: http://www.apnic.net/stats/bgp both in graphical and textual format. The daily text is also sent by e-mail to the bgp-stats(a)lists.apnic.net mailing list. To subscribe to the list, please send e-mail to majordomo(a)lists.apnic.net, and put the words "subscribe bgp-stats" in the body of the mail message. I plan to start posting a weekly message to the apops(a)lists.apnic.net mailing list. If you are not on this list (which is the Asia Pacific Operations list, equivalent to the North American NANOG list, or European EOF list), you can subscribe through the APNIC majordomo system as referenced above ("subscribe apops"), or view the archive referenced from the APNIC web pages. All feedback and comments are welcome. With APNIC's help I am working on the next phase of the analysis system which includes more information and better graphical presentation. Acknowledgements: Thanks are due to APNIC for allowing me access to their equipment to run this project, and for their support. Thanks especially are due to Bruce Campbell for building and maintaining the web pages.
