Abstract:

Global routing in the Internet continues to have scalability problems which underscore weaknesses in the design and implementation of the various TCP/IP Exterior Routing Protocols. This paper explores the historical design and development relative to the decision making process in the specification and implementation of Internet External Routing Protocols; and in particular discusses problems associated with provider-based address space allocation.
