<div class=Section1>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for all of your replies r.e. UDP flooding and
creative BGP Techniques <span style='font-family:Wingdings'>J</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Does anyone know if OPTUS supports Community ID’s in
their BGP annoucements for route selection?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I Know AAPT does, which allows us to announce our IP ranges to
AAPT requesting wheter they are advertised to Australia or International peers,
etc.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The rationale is that we’ll select some of our links
to have Australian routes only, with the other providers having no annoucment
limitations, but a longer BGP path so that International traffic will prefer to
come down the one link, jamming it when we get a UDP flood, and still allowing
all Australian traffic to come through the other links if the designated international
route is jammed with UDP.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Sean.<o:p></o:p></p>
