The code that Randy mentioned is part of an ARIN bogon testing initiative. ARIN funded this work and provided equipment to Randy to perform this testing.

ARIN thanks Randy and those who worked with him for the effort in this area.

ARIN will deploy this code as it continues its bogon testing efforts in
the coming year.

route-views and ping some IPs in each ASN?  Shouldn't be hard to script,
and might yield useful data - both to you and the rest of us.


tee hee.  been there.  done that.  and for 173.0.0.0/20.  paper
submitted a month ago, but you saw a preso of the technique a year ago,
see <http://rip.psg.com/~randy/070604.nanog-bogons.pdf>.

arin has the code from us so they could put it into production if they
so chose.
