Why a Routing Registry
Operation
- Problem diagnosis
- mix traceroute information with routing registry information to see where the real path becomes inconsistent with registered information
- same information can be used to see where a path moves from primary choice to secondary choice path
- verify that real path taken is allowed according to the registered policies
- easy to find out whether the problem route should be exchanged between routers outside your control
- thus easier to find exact location of a problem
