How much has the second number changed? Is this the result of worsening aggregation or simply more address space being advertised?
Core routers won't even blink at 200k routes. I wonder how many enterprise 3x00/7x00 routers will fall over due to memory issues. Also, as we have learned previously, past routing table growth (especially for a short period) is an extremely poor predictor of future growth. - Dan On 1/7/05 3:02 PM, "Joe Maimon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Routing Table Analysis wrote: > >> This is an automated weekly mailing describing the state of the Internet >> Routing Table as seen from APNIC's router in Japan. >> Daily listings are sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> >> If you have any comments please contact Philip Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. >> >> Routing Table Report 04:00 +10GMT Sat 08 Jan, 2005 >> >> Analysis Summary >> ---------------- >> >> BGP routing table entries examined: 153319 >> Prefixes after maximum aggregation: 89967 >> >> >> > Should it matter that in six months its gone from 140k to 153k? > At this rate it might crack 200k in less than two years. >
