Subject: Re: [RAM] Goal: Minimising Routing Entropy

The start of this thread was:
A routing table with minimum entropy has zero more-specific prefixes.
A  routing table with high entropy has many more-specific prefixes.
 
I like to recall Rekther's law : 
        "Addressing can follow topology  or topology can follow
addressing. Choose one."
 
In a previous email I commented on it in more detail, but essentially  
saying: yes, but choose the right way to go. This EITHER-OR is worth to be  
discussed in great detail and what is here termed routing entropy is in my view  the 
essential criteria.
A good start would be to table Rekther's law using more words than just a  
bon mot :-)
