doug madory is asking me for a cite for the exciting 1997/8 128/9 bgp event. my memory as reported to doug is soon after the 7007 incident, an engineer in a UUNET lab, not realizing they were connected to the real internet, used the hidden bgp test command to generate 128/9 chopped into /24s. took uunet down, but not before it propagated. does anyone have a useful cite?
I definitely read a detailed research paper about that incident long ago but can't find any link with any search keywords. But here is the NANOG archive. https://archive.nanog.org/mailinglist/mailarchives/old_archive/1997-10/msg00095.html https://archive.nanog.org/mailinglist/mailarchives/old_archive/1997-10/msg00110.html https://archive.nanog.org/mailinglist/mailarchives/old_archive/1997-10/msg00108.html Regards, Aftab A.
