If I look for BGP info on an IP using one of the Looking Glass sites (specifically Mae-East) does the number of entries returned mean anything? I have noticed that sometimes there are five or six entries and sometimes only one or two. The number of upstream connections is two. If only one entry exists, then is BGP broken? For example:
BGP routing table entry for 216.91.141.0/24, version 7089796 Paths: (1 available, best #1) Advertised to peer-groups: rr-pop Advertised to non peer-group peers: 198.32.187.122 6347 20068 64.241.88.17 (metric 175301) from 165.117.1.110 (165.117.1.110) Origin IGP, metric 4294967294, localpref 100, valid, internal, best Community: 2548:196 2548:229 2548:666 3706:168 6347:1002 6347:3000 To me that implies that there are no alternate routes, and so no BGP on this route. Also, if there are more than two routes does that mean the routes are better connected? What is the best resource for learning more about BGP?
