Abstract The Internet inter-domain paths, i.e., the AS paths, are important for network management, traffic engineering, and security. Due to business confidentiality, security, and privacy, the AS path information is non-public. Due to limited measurement resources, obtaining AS path information by measurement-based approaches is not scalable. Therefore, path inference approaches are proposed to broaden the availability of path information. These approaches assume that AS paths remain stable over a certain period of time, yet conflicting research findings question this assumption. Furthermore, the duration of the “certain period of time” is not clearly defined. Thus, we aim… More >
