Hostcount once more.
Again a Below the DNS hostcount for September 1992.
Remarks:
- CS has a low count this month due to network reachability problems. I have
tried two times more to count CS, but with the same result.
- IT also has this problem, a few hundred hosts less due to network
reachability problems.
- PT has the same problem, although on a smaller scale. Also tried two
times more, with the same result.
- DE really takes off now, they are the first to reach 50,000+.
- Overall another nice increase of almost 10,000, to 221951.
The only one country going down a bit is Hungary, due to unreachable
nameservers.
We welcome Great-Brittain (.gb) in the European networking scene ;-)
Unfortunately due to a mistake, the files with all zone output are
unavailable this time. They will return next month.
just over 10,000 to reach 230,000 plus.
- This count was done a bit earlier in the month than usual, but I needed the
output for our 2nd Quarterly Report, and for the coming RIPE meeting ;-)
- Next month we will start doing some tests with distributed counting. Some people have suggested that parts of this hostcount could be done
distributed, to get more accurate figures, and keep network load as low as
possible. I am happy to discuss a scheme for this at the next RIPE meeting.
Some people have requested to have the history of the hostcounts distributed
with the hostcount every month, to keep track of what has passed over the
months/years. You can find the previous hostcounts below the hostcount for
August. Unfortunately, some of the counts are missing, mainly in the period
when I did this still at NIKHEF. Also some of the earliest counts may not be
as reliable as the last year or so. Much has changed to the program.
agreed to do the count for their own country within the country,
and make the results available to me. This should decrease the influence of
network and link outages, and increase the count even further.
- All output can again be found on ftp.ripe.net:/ripe/hostcount. Check the
README for details. Previous counts can be found in subdirectory History.
- The total history has been appended again. You will find it below the
hostcount.
Enjoy,
