Abstract
Being the primary interdomain routing protocol, border gateway protocol (BGP) is the singular means of path establishment across the Internet. Therefore, misconfiguration errors in BGP routers result in failure to establish paths which in turn can cause several networks to become unreachable. In this paper, we first analyze data from recent BGP tables to show that misconfiguration errors occur very frequently in the Internet today. We then show theoretically and using real-world events the impact of these errors on routing stability. A scheme for real-time isolation of large-scale BGP misconfiguration events is then proposed in this paper. Our methodology is based on statistical techniques and is evaluated using data from past wellknown misconfiguration events. We show the effectiveness of our method as compared to the current state-of-the-art.
