Re: CIDR deployment

[Tony Bates <]

Sorry for not replying sooner to prtaceroute type questions but just got back
from vacation. Erik-Jan Bos is in fact correct. The current prtraceroute in 
the PRIDE tools release allows you to configure only one routing registry (RR)
(whois.ripe.net by default) so unless the RR (also needs the RIPE DB software)
integrates all the data (the first plan for the RIPE and North American RRs),
you do not get a complete picture, but as Elise said Merits
RR is still a pilot. However, we plan future versions of all the PRIDE
tools to be able to deal with more than RR. 
In case some still dont know where to get the PRIDE tools they are available
from

	ftp.ripe.net:pride/tools/pride-tools-1.0.3.tar.Z
