	The purpose of this paper is to provide a summary of the article "End-to-End Routing Behavior in The Internet" by Vern ...
		Paxson presents measured data on Internet routing loops, errors, oscillations, and outages to support his finding that the probability of encountering a major routing pathology more than doubled from the end of 1994 to the end of 1995.
		Paxson relies on statistical analysis of his measurement data to support his findings and provides discussion as to their meanings.
		Paxson states that most of the previous routing related research was focused on the design and function of routing algorithms and protocols.

		Vern noted that the granularity across which we share CC information is a difficult problem and the IRTF is being encouraged to examine the problem.
		Vern noted that we are doing what we understand, and encouraging the IRTF to investigate what we do not.
		Vern noted that this is a hard problems and we do not yet have a good answer, but also that because CM needs to only be deployed on one endpoint in order to work, it has a relatively easy deployment and upgrade path.

		In "End-to-End Routing Behavior in the Internet", Vern Paxson describes the methodology and analysis of 40,000 "traceroute" measurements made between 37 Internet sites during the autumns of 1994 and 1995.
		In Paxson's view this study was the first to focus on the "the end-to-end dynamics of routing information".
		At the time of the study there were more than 50,000 hosts, but Paxson argues that they "reflect a significant cross-section of the behavior".

		Vern Paxson of LBL presented his view of why meaningful Internet measurement is painfully hard, starting with a list of several as yet unanswered questions that require Internet measurement:
		Paxson of LBL presented his work on fl-box measurement of Internet clouds, using endpoint measurements to discern how an Internet cloud perturbs traffic going through it.
		Vern notes that npd was just a prototype he wrote for his thesis research, although he agreed that obtaining a reasonable picture of performance would be greatly facilitated with some measurement infrastructure, including deployment of performance evaluation tools, techniques for independent measuring and analyzing of of available congestion levels, queueing delays, packet loss, etc.

		For its development, Paxson was recognized with the best paper award at the recent Usenix Security Symposium in San Antonio, Texas.
		The award further validates the importance of Paxson's contribution to the cutting-edge field of network security.
		Because of the sensitive nature of Internet security and the desire of security system providers to protect their products, Paxson said there is little public information available on this subject.

		The BOF was co-chaired by Steve Alexander (sca@sgi.com) from Silicon Graphics and Vern Paxson (vern@ee.lbl.gov) of Lawrence Berkeley Labs.
		The idea (originally suggested by Jamshid Mahdavi and Matt Mathis) is to help TCP implementors improve the quality of their products by making them aware of problems in existing implementations and any tools or test suites that might make the development process more productive.
		Vern Paxson then gave a presentation on the results of several research studies, which included work by Brakmo and Peterson; Comer and Lin; Stevens; Dawson, Jahanian, and Milton; and Paxson.

	Worm Attack Could Rack Up $50 Billion In U.S. Damages - Technology News by InformationWeek
		Nicholas Weaver and Vern Paxson, security researchers who work with the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI), a nonprofit research group associated with the University of California at Berkeley, modeled a worst-case scenario in which state-sponsored attackers construct a worm exploiting an unpublished vulnerability, then launch it over the Internet.
		By comparison, Weaver and Paxson said, last summer's Blaster worm, which exploited a vulnerability that was known for almost a month before the worm appeared, infected a minimum of 8 million machines.
		Weaver and Paxson investigated seven popular system and two motherboard manufacturers' wares, and found that, in a third of the cases, it's possible for a worm to cause enough damage that the motherboard would need to be replaced.

	[Bro] new Bro CURRENT release 1.1
		Vern -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ 1.1 Mon May 15 10:50:33 PDT 2006 - Bro now supports a "when" statement for taking action upon something becoming true asynchronously (Robin Sommer).
		For the latter, you specify a UDP tunnel port using udp_tunnel_port (the previous variable "tunnel_port" has gone away); or you can leave it set to its default of 0/udp, in which case Bro will look for IP encapsulated in UDP packets on any port.
		The boolean globals udp_content_deliver_all_{orig,resp} and tables udp_content_delivery_ports_{orig,resp} control for which ports content is delivered, analogous to the globals that control tcp_contents.

		Christian Huitema noted that the work was very specific to a particular kind of real-time application, and may not be suitable to standardize for an IETF effort, and asked how could this be generalized to archive information with more general usefulness.

		Sometimes the value produced will be 63 or 65 instead of 64 (but I've never observed any other values), so the result is then rounded to the nearest multiple of 4, and then the other constants are derived from it.

	Study of routing behaviour through traceroute measurements
		Paxson also found out that in 1995 (1994) 0.44% (0.16%) of the measurements saw a route change, whereas 2.7% (1.2%) of the measurements had route failures.
		Paxson used quite a few nodes outside of the US; the result is that the average hop count is 15.9, with the 80th-percentile being in 20.0 hops.
		Another difference is that Paxson used exponential sampling, whereas we have used a periodic sampling.

	Finding Ways to Fill Electronic Potholes
		While ideally the Internet delivers data quickly and intact, packets of data get lost, delayed, replicated and reordered, a situation which proved to be fertile ground for Vern Paxson's doctorate study.
		Paxson, a member of the Network Research Group in the Information and Computing Sciences Division, recently earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science at UC Berkeley with a dissertation on development of a measurement framework for the Internet.
		Paxson said his research has implications for many facets of Internet use, including distributed collaborations, and could help in the development of new tools for improved data transfer.

		The goal is to enhance Bro's capabilities and applicability to operational use, to foster a Bro user community that will facilitate the use of Bro at research institutions, and to develop new network-based intrusion detection algorithms.
