No the "problem" lies with the larger ISP who certainly is on this list ;-) My guess is that Reach for various political reasons has a very loose set of filters on their BGP sessions to Telstra. While the view used by Rob's report has a pretty wide angle and takes sessions (warts and all) from many of Reach's peers (who typically don't filter) which gives us a net result of seeing kruft which may or may not be globally visible from most parts of the globe used. (but most likely not visible) > Scott -- James BTW: For some reason those Telstra folk didn't remove/filter private-as which is why we ended up on this thread. ---- email "unsubscribe aussie-isp" to m a j o r d o m o @ a u s s i e . n e t to be removed. |
