AS3.5 received as AS_TRANS from 1 RIS peer
by Rene Wilhelm 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Following Surfnet's announcement of their as3.5 beacon to the nanog list, I had a quick look at RIS. (see below) For 93 peers the transition mechanism succeeds, the route collectors succesfully recreate a 4-byte AS path with 4-byte origin ASN. However, for 1 peer the RRC01 collector reports AS_TRANS as origin. This suggests the supposed transitive NEW_AS_PATH attribute was lost either in the peer or in one of its upstreams. BTW, has the APNIC 4-byte asn beacon been switched off? RISwhois only 'sees' two IPv4 prefixes with 4-byte origin ASNs: dog [~]; whois -h riswhois dump |grep '^[0-9]*\.[0-9]' 3.7 84.205.88.0/24 74 3.5 145.125.0.0/20 93 The RIS beacon, AS3.7, has somewhat less visibility than the route inserted by Surfnet (seen by 74 instead of 93 peers). -- Rene $ whois -h riswhois 145.125/20 % For more information visit http://www.ripe.net/ris/riswhois.html route: 145.125.0.0/20 origin: AS3.5 descr: SURFNET-NL SURFnet, The Netherlands lastupd-frst: 2007-03-29 11:54Z 80.81.192.8@rrc12 lastupd-last: 2007-04-10 15:27Z 198.32.160.179@rrc11 seen-at: rrc00,rrc01,rrc03,rrc04,rrc05,rrc06,rrc07,rrc10,rrc11,rrc12,rrc13,rrc14,rrc15 num-rispeers: 93 source: RISWHOIS route: 145.125.0.0/20 origin: AS23456 descr: AS_TRANS lastupd-frst: 2007-04-10 03:14Z 195.66.224.68@rrc01 lastupd-last: 2007-04-10 03:14Z 195.66.224.68@rrc01 seen-at: rrc01 num-rispeers: 1 source: RISWHOIS

Re: [ris-int] how to get the next hop from ris raw data

But next question is how this applies to IPv4. The bgpdump.c code features same constructs for AFI_IP and AFI_IP6. e.g. printf("(IPv4 Unicast)\n"); printf("NEXT_HOP: %s\n",inet_ntoa(attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop.v4_addr)); if (attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop_len==32) printf("NEXT_HOP: %s\n",inet_ntoa(attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop_local.v4_addr)); is it ever possible to get nexthop_len==32 in this case ??? or did the authors of bgpdump.c just liked typing? :) Cheers, -- Rene

how to get the next hop from ris raw data
by Rene Wilhelm 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

Hi Lorenzo, Erik, I have to parse RIS raw data (in C) for a SG project. Bgpdump.c sort of shows how to do this, but I don't quite understand what's happening with next hop in the show_attr function: if (attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP6][SAFI_UNICAST]) { printf("(IPv6 Unicast)\n"); printf("NEXT_HOP: %s\n",inet_ntop(AF_INET6,&attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP6][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop.v6_addr,buf,128)); if (attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP6][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop_len==32) printf("NEXT_HOP: %s\n",inet_ntop(AF_INET6,&attr->mp_info->announce[AFI_IP6][SAFI_UNICAST]->nexthop_local.v6_addr,buf,128)); } (and the same for IPv4 unicast) What is this special case where ... nexthop_len==32 ? If I read this piece of C correctly, it would result in two next hop addresses being printed ????? Can one of you explain? Thanks, -- Rene

Re: Update to RIS raw data format for 4-byte ASNs
by Rene Wilhelm 02 Apr '07

02 Apr '07

Hi Erik, I didn't follow any of the discussions on the new MRT format, as I (naively) thought it would just be minor update for the longer AS numbers. But after reading your recent mails and having started work on importing RIS raw in a SG project, I see there's a fundamental change (at least for RIB dumps): in the old format, a call to bgpdump_read_next would return information on one and only one entry of the routing table. In the new format, a call to bgpdump_read_next returns a whole block of entries; for the latest rrc03 bview, anything between 1 and 35 at a time. To me it looks strange, seems to make programmer's life needlessly more complicated. Now one not only has to loop over all bgpdump_read_next records, but also loop over all entries in each "record". Programs which worked with old raw data will need major revision; and those which need to work with both old and new format will look ugly, a different paradigm for processing old and new data. Do you have any idea of the reasons behind this big change?

RIS modifications for 4-byte ASNs on 27 March
by Erik Romijn 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

[Apologies for duplicates] Dear Colleagues On 1 January 2007, we began assigning 4-byte Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). We need to modify the Routing Information Service (RIS) and RIS raw data dumps to include these in its output. You may need to update any tools that parse RIS output. We will switch one Remote Route Collector (RRC) to 4-byte ASN supporting software on 27 March 2007, somewhere between 09:00 and 13:00 (UTC). We plan to switch the other RRCs to 4-byte ASN supporting software on 28 March 2007, between 09:00 and 17:00 (UTC). Details of the changes to the RIS can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/projects/ris/docs/asn.html If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to <ris(a)ripe.net>.

Update to RIS raw data format for 4-byte ASNs
by Erik Romijn 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Dear Colleagues, This is an update concerning 4-byte Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). An IETF draft has been released describing a new version of the MRT format, used for RIS raw data. We have published a new version of libbgpdump to support this, which can be downloaded from: http://www.ris.ripe.net/source/ There is at this stage no set date on which 4-byte ASNs will appear in the RIS. The current raw data does not use the new format. Details of the changes to RIS for 4-byte ASNs, including more information on the new raw data format, can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/projects/ris/docs/asn.html If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to <ris(a)ripe.net>.
