Discovery of IPv6 router addresses using Subnet-Router Anycast addresses
Guest Post: Identifying active IPv6 addresses helps assess deployment, reveal gaps, and detect vulnerable devices. Subnet-Router Anycast (SRA) probing removes the need for prior knowledge of address allocation.
[Podcast] The Erik protocol: Improving RPKI data fetch
Job Snijders discusses the new ‘Erik’ protocol for faster RPKI repository synchronization.
RADIUS isn’t going away, so let’s fix it properly
Guest Post: “RADIUS is the protocol that will never die”. So given that RADIUS is staying, what do we need to do to make it secure for the next 30 years?
Ephemeral leaks and automated BGP route leak detection
Guest Post: Many BGP route leaks flagged by automated systems are short-lived artifacts of normal convergence. Doug Madory draws on Cloudflare Radar, RouteViews, and Jared Mauch’s leak detector to show how these ‘ephemeral leaks’ occur, why they rarely disrupt traffic, and why they still matter for routing security.
[Podcast] CIDR inside
Geoff Huston discusses the CIDR Report, a 30-year-long series of data about who is sending excess data in BGP. Does the CIDR Report still hold value?
Revocation of X.509 certificates
‘Revocation is broken’ is a catchphrase in the world of certificates and Certificate Authorities. Certification infrastructure may not have been designed for the Internet of today.
Detecting and characterizing DDoS scrubbing from global BGP routing
Guest Post: Analysing public BGP data to characterize the real‑world behaviour of five major scrubbing services.
Using QUIC backscatter to infer hypergiant deployment configurations
Guest Post: What can we learn about QUIC deployments just by listening to unsolicited QUIC traffic? As it turns out, quite a lot.
Noisy routers: Investigating the make-up of route collector data
Guest Post: An analysis of more than 80 billion updates reveals how ‘noisy’ BGP updates inflate MRT archives, bias measurements, and highlights the need for more careful interpretation of BGP data.
