(number of planes concurrently in the air) and transitions at a rate of 100/second? 500/second? (what rate is expected at 10k planes? at 100k planes?) For quick/dirty numbers: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travel-truths/how-many-planes-are-there-in-the-world/ says there are 25k planes (round numbers) planes that I think qualify in your pool. > multi-link entities that often have multiple data links operational > simultaneously, > > where each data link connects to a data link service provider network that > may > > know nothing about BGP internally.
