I'd like to lend some support to Wes' message here, the situation described therein is something I've seen before at numerous operators. Randy - do you think that with the modelling that NIST provided, it is possible for the WG to map (from a historical dataset of control-plane growth) why the time-scale envisaged for hardware to reach the level required for fairly ubiquitous bgpsec support is reasonable? This would seem to answer at least the queries raised here around whether the resource level envisaged is supportable within the quoted timeframe. Many thanks, r. _______________________________________________ sidr mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sidr
