See http://www.cidr-report.org - it has all the information you need. Extract from the weekly post to Nanog: Recent Table History Date Prefixes CIDR Agg 19-08-11 371450 219002 20-08-11 371427 219147 21-08-11 371547 219346 22-08-11 371326 218957 23-08-11 371090 219346 24-08-11 371769 219465 25-08-11 372189 219508 26-08-11 372363 219490 > On a related note, what is the number of the network interfaces on a > DFZ router? No need for exact number, educated guess/estimation would > be greatly appreciated too. How long is a piece of string? "It depends." And the same is the case for number of interfaces. You obviously need a minimum of three for a router to do anything "interesting" with the packets. Also, it depends on whether you're talking about physical interfaces or logical (sub) interfaces. I'd say anything from 3 to 20 is fairly typical.
