maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
hello, I believe, ISPs should also allow ipv4 prefixes with length between /25-/27 instead of limiting maximum length to /24.. I also believe that RIRs and LIRs should allocate /27s which has 32 IPv4 address. considering IPv4 world is now mostly NAT'ed, 32 IPv4s are sufficient for most of the small and medium sized organizations and also home office workers like youtubers, and professional gamers and webmasters! It is because BGP research and experiment networks can not get /24 due to high IPv4 prices, but they have to get an IPv4 prefix to learn BGP in IPv4 world. What do you think about this? What could be done here? Is it unacceptable; considering most big networks that do full-table-routing also use multi-core routers with lots of RAM? those would probably handle /27s and while small networks mostly use default routing, it should be reasonable to allow /25-/27? Thanks for reading, regards..
Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
IMO, No. ipv4 is not dead yet. we need to raise it, a bit. EINAT solutions are OK The future will come very quickly, right now. We just need to invest in the internet. 29.09.2023 07:11 tarihinde Owen DeLong yazdı: Wouldn’t /48s be a better solution to this need?

Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
how would you route 800 Gigabit-ethernet that will soon be released as IEEE standart? we were paying 1 usd per megabit several years ago. now it is as low as 4 usd cent. As i said before, the future is coming just now. There must be ways to increase CPU caches and memories of routers. It is also about wholesale. When you buy cheaper routers, powerful routers stay expensive. But when everybody upgrades, memory and processor unit prices decrease.. Vendors gain from demand. 29.09.2023 07:31 tarihinde William Herrin yazdı: Others use an expensive kind of memory called a TCAM that's very fast but both expensive and power hungry, so generally not sized for huge numbers of tiny routes.
Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
Also keep in mind; single-homed networks never need full-table.. multi-homed networks could also do default routing just packet-mark incoming interface and then route packets out via same interface.. I do not see gain in running BGP full-table, _*excluding*_ networks using Intelligent routing optimizers that run jitter and ping tests.. but these are just my ideas.., i respect all ideas.. we are here to discuss.. There are people running full-table of v4 and v6 _*just for fun*_... I guess it makes them happy when they look thousands of routes available on single interface! I am pretty sure Tier-1 and Tier-2 networks have enough money for upgrades. But i may be wrong. What do you think?

Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
CGNAT is not worse any more, IMHO. with Endpoint-independent-NAT you can accept incoming connections, as soon as you open the port automatically by sending packet to any host. Then any host can start connection to your host? thats perfect for gamers, streamers, webmasters.. etc.. Allows P2P connections.. for server setups, how many common ports you need to forward? five or ten, maybe. not that bad. if it is scripted, then it is automated. if its automated then it is not headache for network administrator.. There are just about 50 major NSP networks on the Earth, that needs to use BGP full-table. I presume there would be another 50 big ASNs that belong to CDNs. And I am pretty sure those top 100 networks can invest in gear to support /25-/27. I would suggest Tier3 eyeballs to mark connection depending on incoming interface (transit provider). Then route outgoing traffic of connections via same interface (TP). Thats all they need to do. if they do not optimize BGP based on packetloss rate and latency (performance). Please Correct me if i am wrong. Thanks and regards 29.09.2023 07:48 tarihinde Owen DeLong yazdı: I presume you mean CGNAT? Otherwise, not sure what EINAT is and couldn’t find a reference with a quick google search. Again agree to disagree. NAT is bad and more NAT is just worse.
Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
Can we get single-homed and dual-homed ASN counts worldwide by somebody here? Checking, https://bgp.he.net/country/US , more than half of networks are either single-homed or dual-homed. single-homed networks do not need full-table, for sure. Dual homed networks need to buy partial transit from the notorious tier-1.5 network that has "NO" (close the doors) peering policy, that you know their name.. Then route other traffic via cheapest second Transit Provider.. /BTW, Thanks Mr. M.Leber for shitting in the world-wide IPv6 internet (causing segmentation in the IPv6 world), I guess he thinks FREE means FEELESS while it means mostly freedom../ /It seems like Mr. M.Leber believes dictatorship instead of freedom.

Re: maximum ipv4 bgp prefix length of /24 ?
thanks for your response. Honestly thanks for everyones reponses. comunism is the future.

ON a separate note--NANOG mailing list admins, I'm noting that Vokan's emails just arrived a few minutes ago in my gmail inbox. However, I saw replies to his messages from others on the list yesterday, a day before they made it to the general list. Is there a backed up queue somewhere in the NANOG list processing that is delaying some messages sent to the list by up to a full day? If not, I'll just blame gmail for selectively delaying portions of NANOG for 18+ hours. ^_^; Thanks! Matt

TCP MSS clamping in PROPER way (incoming and outgoing traffic)
Dear list members, I am using PPPoE over GPON (FTTH) in Turkiye,HATAY. Provider is NetInternet Datacenter, Denizli,TR. We have a written conversation with Turk Telecom to increase MTU from 1492 to 1500 as we use Mikrotik CCR that supports 1508 bytes (baby), 9kb and 10kb jumbo frames,. I am running non-commercial R&D network for myself. They responded negative to their reseller (the datacenter). They do not provide DHCP over GPON (IPoE) or DotX. Why would I request that (1500 bytes MTU) while there is TCP MSS clamping?! Unfortunately i have come to understanding that enabling Mikrotik's TCP MSS Clamping PPP profile in addition to IPv4+IPv6 clamp-to-pmtu rule; does not work in both ways. How did I find that? Added filter rule with LOG action for packet size > 1492 or/and for TCP packets > 1452 MSS. There was lots of packets by-passing clamping. After that, I added following rules; and email-loads and page-loads are much more FASTER! without any renegotiations. //ipv6 firewall mangle add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn/ //ip firewall mangle add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!syn add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack add action=change-mss chain=postrouting new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn add action=change-mss chain=forward new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn add action=change-mss chain=output new-mss=clamp-to-pmtu passthrough=yes protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,ack,!syn/ But couldn't and shouldn't all these possible with single rule? or PPP profile setting shouldnt consider ACK's and any other flags that can be added to SYN?!

Re: TCP MSS clamping in PROPER way (incoming and outgoing traffic)
Thanks Mr. Brandon for the response/feedback. Rgrds 17.06.2024 22:08 tarihinde Brandon Martin yazdı: Is something out of your control also breaking PMTU discovery (e.g. blocking all ICMP traffic)? With working PMTU discovery, this issue should resolve itself in the ingress direction. You should also set the MTU properly on your PPPoE tunnel interface. If the setup inherits properly from the parent interface's MTU, this should again be automatic, but I've observed a lot of PPPoE stacks don't necessarily do that (not that I've used PPPoE in a hot minute). That will get mean PMTU discovery between things on your LAN and the Internet happens right at your Internet edge in the egress direction and therefore doesn't incur Internet latencies. If the "clamp MSS to PMTU" is working, this probably means you have it right since that's usually where the rule gets its PMTU (not actual end-to-end PMTUD), but I don't know Microtik for sure. Clamping the MSS to the known PTMU will fix the opposite direction in cases where PMTUD is broken. That's basically why it exists.
Request for Deployment of Google/YouTube Global Cache Servers in Türkiye (Istanbul, Izmir and Ankara of TURKEI)
*Subject:* Request for Deployment of Google/YouTube Global Cache Servers in Türkiye *To Whom It May Concern,* I am a government officer and a colleague of Mr. Ahmet Hamdi Atalay (ahata...@turksat.com.tr), who serves at Türksat. Currently, internet users in Türkiye experience *Google/YouTube speeds limited to approximately 15-20 Mbps*, which is significantly lower than the global standards. As Türksat personnel and civil servants committed to improving national digital infrastructure, we strongly advocate for increasing these speeds to *100-1000 Mbps levels*. *Rationale for Deployment:* Türksat has *direct connectivity with the three largest network operators in Türkiye (Türk Telekom, Vodafone TR, and Turkcell)*. Given this strategic position, we kindly request the *installation of Google/YouTube Global Cache (GGC) servers at Türksat’s network locations in Istanbul, Izmir, and Ankara*. * *Hardware and software* will be provided by Google/YouTube team/management. * *Bandwidth (IP transit)* and DECIX ISTANBUL / GIBIRIX ports /circuits will be fully covered by Türksat. We believe this collaboration will provide *substantial benefits* to both parties and the broader Turkish internet ecosystem. *Legal and Regulatory Basis* 1. *Consumer Protection Laws & Internet Rights:* * Article 57 of the *Turkish Constitution* guarantees the *right to access quality and affordable public services*, which includes internet connectivity. * According to the *Turkish Electronic Communications Law No. 5809*, service providers must ensure high-speed, uninterrupted internet access for end users. * The *EU's Open Internet Regulation (Regulation 2015/2120)* emphasizes network optimization to prevent congestion and improve consumer experience. 2. *Precedents and Global Best Practices:* * Many *IXPs (Internet Exchange Points) in Europe and North America* already host Google/YouTube caches, drastically improving performance and reducing latency. * Regulatory bodies such as the *FCC (Federal Communications Commission - USA)* and *BEREC (Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications - EU)* support infrastructure improvements that enhance consumer digital experience. *Economic and Technical Benefits for Google* * *Cost Savings on IP Transit Fees:* o By deploying GGC servers within Türksat’s network, *Google will significantly reduce its IP transit expenses* for traffic originating from Türkiye. o Similar deployments in other regions have led to *over 40% reduction in IP transit costs* for content delivery networks. * *Lower Latency, Higher User Engagement:* o Hosting YouTube content locally will *reduce buffering times and improve video streaming quality*, leading to increased *watch time, ad impressions, and user satisfaction*. o Google’s experience in *Indonesia, Brazil, and India* has demonstrated that local caching improves performance metrics while boosting overall revenue from digital advertising. * *Regulatory and Competitive Advantages:* o Establishing cache servers in Türkiye will align *Google’s services with local digital transformation goals*, strengthening its market position against competitors. o This initiative supports *Google’s commitments to net neutrality and fair internet access*, reinforcing its positive relationship with regulators. For further discussion and technical coordination, please direct correspondence to *peer...@turksat.com.tr* with a CC to *Mr. Atalay*. We appreciate your attention to this request and look forward to a productive collaboration. *Best regards,*
Streaming Bandwidth Requirements..
Dear NANOG members, Hoping that some members working at Google/YouTube might be part of this group, I respectfully suggest adding or noting the following to YouTube's bandwidth requirements page [1]: * *8K (H.264):* 110 Mbps * *8K (H.265):* 60 Mbps [1] https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/78358?hl=en *References and Standards:* * *ITU-T H.265 (HEVC) Standard:* High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) significantly reduces bit rate requirements compared to H.264 while maintaining the same video quality. (Source <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Video_Coding>) * *Bitrate Requirements for 8K Video:* o A study on *8K 120Hz HEVC/H.265 encoding* indicates that the required bit rate ranges from *85–110 Mbps*. (Source <https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/apsipa-transactions-on-signal-and-information-processing/article/video-bitrate-requirements-for-8k-120hz-hevch265-temporal-scalable-coding-experimental-study-based-on-8k-subjective-evaluations/ED85B79ECC1EC55D74B1EB4FB7F39B46>) o *H.264 encoding* generally requires higher bit rates for high resolutions, and an estimated bit rate for 8K content is around *110 Mbps*. o *H.265 (HEVC) encoding* allows for more efficient compression, reducing the required bitrate for *8K content to approximately 60 Mbps* while maintaining similar video quality. *Conclusion:* To improve the accuracy of YouTube's bandwidth requirement documentation, I propose updating the page with recommended bitrates for *8K (H.264) and 8K (H.265) video formats*. This would provide more precise information to users regarding bandwidth needs for high-resolution content delivery.
