Learned a lot from it! BGP always felt a bit intimidating to me, but after this course it didn't ;) Thank you very much NL-ix and Iljitsch van Beijnum!

About Iljitsch

In 1997, he co-founded Pine Internet (later Pine Digital Security). In 1999, he worked for UUNET Netherlands on designing and implementing a new Dutch high speed backbone based on the UUNET US design.
Iljitsch is also the author of renowned book Internet Routing with BGP.
