Interdomain Internet Routing
H. Balakrishnan, “Interdomain Internet Routing,” MIT Lecture Notes, (January 2009). Summary Connectivity between different autonomous systems (ASes) with heterogeneous characteristics was the primary objective while designing the Internet. Interdomain routing enables end-to-end communication and global connectivity in a distributed manner through the dissemination of reachability information among the ASes/ISPs in the Internet. This lecture provides ...

Understanding BGP Misconfiguration
R. Mahajan, D. Wetherall, T. Anderson, “Understanding BGP Misconfiguration,” ACM SIGCOMM Conference, (August 2002). Summary Misconfigurations in BGP tables result in excessive routing load, connectivity disruption, and policy violation. However, misconfigurations are widely prevalent in the Internet without any systematic study of their characteristics. This paper presents an empirical study of the BGP misconfigurations with ...
