Type: article
Abstract: This paper is about the measurement of Internet outages with a focus on the Border Gateway Protocol, as one of the most common routing protocols. First some background information about the protocol and its tasks are described, followed by a concrete example of last year’s events in Egypt. Thereafter a self-made analysis regarding the earthquake in New Zealand in 2011 is presented. Finally a conclusion about Internet outages and their monitoring with data col-lected by the Border Gateway Protocol is given. The con-clusion also includes a short passage about recent papers and methods involving Internet outage monitoring in cur-rent academic research with a focus on the role of BGP within those.
