But stating what non-existing test-suite would or would not have covered is not a topic I'm particularly interested to engage.I suggest the test-tool has 2 bgp-sessions and tests if what it put in did or did not come out on the otherside and in what shape or form. There are already atleast 2 projects which have BGP-code which could probably be adapted: http://code.google.com/p/exabgp/ http://code.google.com/p/bgpsimple/ Can I suggest a fuzzer as wel ?
There was once cert-bgp-testcases-28may03-final.tar.gz which did some testing (including expected responses). I use it from time to time.
From the README:
For more information see the NANOG 28 (http://www.nanog.org) presentation ... "BGP Vulnerability Testing: Separating Fact from FUD" by Sean Convery (sean () cisco com) and Matthew Franz (mfranz () cisco com) But my quick googeling failed to locate a link to it. -- :wq Claudio
