Morley Mao <zmao@eecs.umich.edu> To: "Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE NCC)" <henk@ripe.net> Subject: suggestions for beacons Hi Henk, Paul Francis, Ramesh Govindan, and I wrote this draft for setting up a BGP Lab combining the RIPE beacons with other beacons. Please see the attachment for more details. Basically, we would like to allow programmable access to the beacons for researchers, so that it is easier to perform experiments. We plan to provide the software to enable such access. We would love to hear any comments you may have. Thank you very much! --Morley
