Re: BGP peering

'Does any sort of "public" bgp peering exist on the internet....years ago
there was one that
you could login and create your own peer on the honor system...'

after many supplied him with route servers and the bgp looking glass
(pretty cool btw) he then states

'I am really just looking for a place I can download the global IPV4 bgp
table into my lab router here at Cisco for experimentation'

If he can't peer he may not have much problem extracting this information
but it won't be so easy to shove it all back down a router's throat without
learning through RIB. There is a solution to most problems, so I am sure
there is something that can also be done when trying to input 400,000
routes through the parser. Humphery's suggestion of a perl script sounds
like a plan (if Charles knows perl....) but that still won't be dynamic and
just a stale snapshot of the BGP table.

More importantly... We all read the email and have slightly different
interpretation of what he is asking for. We are all trying to help and some
healthy criticism has been the by product. I walked away learning
something. I hope Charles and others have as well.

Marc
