(I've no problems with this experiment as such. We should include it in the announcement about the new beacons though, James?).
Ok. What about the following text? It could be added to the beacon announcement, or I can whip up a standalone annoucement if you think it's necessary. (Comments welcome of course.) We also need to ask our peers to accept everything in the route-set *including ASes behind 12654* and not just ^12654$. James, could you add that to the description you are going to send to the peers? =====================8<------------------------- Beacon prefixes 84.205.73.0/24 and 84.205.89.0/24 will be used by researchers at the Computer Networks research group at Roma Tre University to perform studies on network topology discovery. The objective of the experiments is to investigate new methodologies for topology discovery and experimental mechanisms for deducing the routing policies of ISP's, the quality of their connectivity, and more general properties of interdomain topology. The experiments will involve announcing AS-sets of varying lengths behind AS 12654 and are initially scheduled for the last week of February and the first week of March. =====================8<------------------------- -- --------------------------------------------------------- Lorenzo Colitti Ph.D student Computer Networks research group Roma Tre University colitti@dia.uniroma3.it +39-0655173215 ---------------------------------------------------------
