  • Abstract
    The impact of routing policy on Internet paths is poorly understood. In theory, the policy can inflate shortest-router-hop paths. To our knowledge, the extent of this inflation has not been previously examined. Using a simplified model of the routing policy in the Internet, we obtain approximate indications of the impact of policy routing on Internet paths. Our findings suggest that the routing policy does impact the length of Internet paths significantly. For instance, in our model of the routing policy, some 20% of Internet paths are inflated by more than five router-level hops
