The current Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) operation in the Internet has a serious problem with regard to Mis-Origination, which is the hijacking or misconfiguration of network prefixes. We already have several Origin Validation (OV) techniques to mitigate the impact of Mis-Origination. An Internet Routing Registry (IRR) has been deployed only for a small number of users. More recently, RPKI (Resource Public Key Infrastructure) has come to be considered as the reality of the OV However, quantitative and large-scale simulation studies of its effect are not discussed deeply. In this paper, a quantitative simulation method of the OV effect for BGP is proposed. OV's impact on the entire Internet is measured in detail. Our results indicate that 1.56% of the top-ranked ASes can protect 98.70% of the ASes from Mis-Origination.
