Hi Brian, |> CIDR is one success story. | |I hate to be a contrarian, but I think it's more accurate |to say CIDR *was* a success story (which you can clearly see |by examining the BGP growth curve for the 1994-1998 period). |It's much less clear that CIDR has been holding the floods |back since about 1999; there are other factors at work, |and the growth in PI assignments is probably the main reason |we're here (on this list).
Without CIDR (and supernets), wouldn't we have > 2 million Class C prefixes in BGP? I would say Internet is a success story. That's the main reason we're here. Teco _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] https://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
