Abstract

Route servers are the most important service (other than moving packets itself) on an internet exchange fabric, however in most exchanges they are not mandatory.

This talk aims to answer the question of how effective route servers are and distributing routes to many networks, using the large internet exchange deployment footprint of the bgp.tools route collector network.

Video will be added soon.
