"In our simulation, every AS is running simultaneously and independently, so storing the full routing table for each AS requires many terabytes of RAM by itself."
i must be missing something - why do the tables consume terabytes of memory?
- RKearney 11y agoA single BGP routing table does not. A full table, multiplied by the number of unique autonomous systems however, can quickly reach that size.
- bitdivision 11y agoIt looks like a full table can often be stored in around 150MB. So 60 000 AS would give around 9TB
- chillaxtian 11y agothanks folks, that makes more sense. do you have a source for the ~150MB figure?
