Measuring and visualizing interdomain routing dynamics with BGPATH
Luca Cittadini, Tiziana Refice, Alessio Campisano, Giuseppe Di Battista, Claudio Sasso · 2008
The policy-oriented nature of BGP provides network operators with great flexibility and control over the interdomain routing, nevertheless researchers showed that these benefits come at the cost of stability and predictability. In particular, policy interactions often separate, both in time and space, the effects of network events from their causes, making it hard to assess and debug network configurations.
