What good (free) utilities are there to analyse this? Serge. jlewis@... wrote: On Fri, 23 Apr 2004, james wrote:OK, so 1 prepend tiped you too far over. I would move to adjusting local pref on selected prefixes, on just one session (BGP session). More weight=more prefered.What I've done in situations like this is use an incoming route-map to selectively match and do prepending on certain AS paths. i.e. say you have connections to ISPa and ISPb. You notice that ISPa is getting most of your outbound traffic. Take a look at that traffic and pick a few larger networks going out ISPa (maybe AOL, AT&T, etc.) and do a prepend on their as paths. That should encourage outgoing traffic to those networks to use ISPb. This worked really well for me, back when I was playing the balancing game with several different sized fractional T3's. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@...*| I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________ To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
