LINX has the mac addresses of their LANs public.

MAC Addresses may cross into fear of disclosure of private identifying
information.

All they really need is the OUI portion of the MAC addresses which is
fairly anonymous in terms of identifying anyone specific, yet provides all
the needed data.

Hi,

What you could consider is asking a few of the major internet exchanges if
they'd be so kind to send you a list of MAC addresses seen on their LANs.
Based on the MAC you can determine the manufacturer. If you have three or
four big ones, you have a decent sample size as most larger networks are on
multiple IXes anyway.

If you do compile a list, I'm sure this list would be interested in the
results :)

Thanks,

Sabri

Hi, I am working with MANRS (https://www.manrs.org) on a tool for
checking router configs for BGP security / spoofing prevention (e.g. uRPF)
 https://github.com/manrs-tools/MANRS-validator
We are wondering if there is any research on the percentages of different
types of devices running BGP on the Internet.
Something like:
Cisco IOS 30%
Junos 30%
Mikrotik 20%
etc…
We are looking to focus our tool on the most prevalent types of devices
doing BGP (and the most prevalent with BGP security/spoofing issues) so
that we can have the greatest impact.  Does anyone have any information on
this or know where I can obtain this information?  Thanks in advance!
