Information about the geographic locality of IP prefixes can be useful for understanding the
issues related to IP address allocation, aggregation, and BGP routing table growth. In this …

BGP routing table sizes have increased by an order of magnitude over the last six years.
This dramatic growth can decrease packet forwarding speed and demand more router …

The IP address consumption and the global routing table size are two of the vital parameters
of the Internet growth. In this paper we quantitatively characterize the IPv4 address …

In this paper, we study the geographic properties of Internet routing. Our work is
distinguished from most previous studies of Internet routing in that we consider the …

Routing policies are typically partitioned into a few classes that capture the most common
practices in use today [1]. Unfortunately, it is known that the reality of routing policies [2] and …

To date, realistic ISP topologies have not been accessible to the research community,
leaving work that depends on topology on an uncertain footing. In this paper, we present …

The recent growth in the size of the routing table has led to an interest in quantitatively
understanding both the causes (eg multihoming) as well as the effects (eg impact on router …

The performance of a backbone network is vulnerable to interdomain routing changes that
affect how traffic travels to destinations in other Autonomous Systems (ASes). Despite …

To date, realistic ISP topologies have not been accessible to the research community,
leaving work that depends on topology on an uncertain footing. In this paper, we present …

The proliferation of online services comprised of globally spread microservices has security
and performance implications. Understanding the underlying physical paths connecting end …
