Prerequisites:
The DNS server IP is registered in the AS numbers database.
Package:
Availability.
Executed on:
CYMRU DNS servers.
Check interval:
Every 4 hours.
Impact on Availability:
None.
Impact on Integrity:
None.
Purpose
Informational/indicational only.
To collect and present the peering information available for the AS numbers each individual DNS IP is registered to.
If the AS number summary check finds that the DNS servers reside in the same AS, the peering information from that AS can help decide if the current AS peers with enough networks to be counted as resilient enough. It’s all a matter of opinion.
Event severities and messages
This check will not result in any severities.
Solutions, tips & tricks
The number of peering partners shows the number of AS networks a single AS is exchanging information with. It also indicates the number of paths is available to reach the AS.
