Abstract

Although Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is broadly used among autonomous systems (ASes), the topology of peer autonomous systems is often mysterious to some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) or administrative domains. With unknown routing policies of BGP neighbors and their uplink ASes, it is uneasy to make a proper design when building a multihoming environment. Sometimes it may even cause congestion problems. Some mistakenly announced prefixes of ASes over the Internet will continuously increase routing table and deteriorate policy-based routing. This paper analyzes the adjacency relationships of ASes over the entire Internet and their announced prefixes. Using this information, our prototype system can automatically identify the more appropriate access point for individual ASes, depict the relations among ASes, and provide decision support to manage the improper address spaces over the Internet
