Sort of. The configuration file includes the definition of the PID
(partition ID) for each AS, the IP prefixes associated with each PID /
AS, and the costs between pairs of PIDs / ASs.

A large chunk of the configuration file is the cost matrix between pairs
of PIDs.

But yes, the Comcast IP prefixes were captured in the configuration
file.

Does "... and resulted in a 1,461 line configuration file" reflect the
number of IP prefixes associated with these 22 node identifiers / AS's?
