Re: Open Source BGP Route Optimization?
- From: Noel Montales

Yes, I saw those.. But I'm looking for something that actually can ping a
set of hosts throughout the Internet and manipulate BGP accordingly. I
realize that InternNAP and RouteScience use fixed agents throughout the
Internet to measure these things, but I think a simple ping would do.
I can't be the only one tired of manually manipulating BGP. I can't be the
only one that can't afford something commercially to do this!
