because
of convergence times of peers, information for
|
|
|
even
a single prefix may be inconsistent for peers
|
|
|
| • |
even
if the internal networks of peers have converged, there
|
|
|
may
be additional delay getting that information to the
|
|
|
monitor
box
|
|
|
| • |
since
BGP only publishes the "best" path at each AS hop,
|
|
|
information
about secondary paths can be lost.
So building
|
|
|
|
an AS
topology graph may not actually capture backup
|
|
|
|
paths
or peering
|
|
|
| • |
people
occasionally announce routes they shouldn't or
|
|
|
|
deaggregate
prefixes due to misconfiguration
