Forget part of my reply here... I thought someone was posting from the CCIE

So disregard the lack-of-caffeine-induced, retarded command about no router
being able to support a full feed. :)
My apologies
Zebra is still a good idea though!

Zebra is a great option here, I use it to eat a routing table from
production routers, peer a perl Net::BGP daemon with it, and then do SQL
injections from there to instruct my netflow engine on baseline
subnetting for external networks, as well as provide AS clue for non-AS
aware netflow expo

If you just want to play with BGP stuff, you can use Zebra (unix) or go to
www.nantech.com and get their BGP4WIN program.
That may help you a bit more.

I'm trying to come up with a way to get a full BGP routing table in to
my lab.
I'm not really fussed about keeping it up to date, so a snapshot is fine.
At the moment, I'm thinking about spending a few hours hacking together
a BGP daemon in perl to peer with and record a table from a production

produces exactly the results discussed below (single TCP sessions remain on
the same server, while repeated UDP queries go to different servers). A

BTW, while it looks like you've shown it to be traditional load balancing,
I ought to explain that this is also not a very good idea. The
loadbalancer is a single point of failure, usually. Loadbalancers are a
good idea for stateful, high-work-request servers such as web servers
running web-apps.

I would not expect this kind of behavior from an anycasted address.
You'd need a LOT of routing churn to see different caches every few
seconds. It's much more likely some kind of load balancer in front

Where do you see any connection between anycast and ignoring DNS TTL?
Or is this just part of your usual rant against anycast DNS service?

for us, and we cer

With a cache, the behavior is confusing, but also harms DNS TCP support,
just like that described for authoritative servers.
Further there isn't a good reason to have anycasted caches. Indeed, with
