vm0.dfw.rg.net:/home/randy> traceroute6 2605:a601:f70:f0::1
I'm not able to reach that from my Google Fiber home connection in Huntsville, AL... it goes nowhere past my router. It doesn't appear that it's being routed even inside their network. I see the /31 on multiple route servers (and my home is in that /31). -- Chris Adams <cma@cmadams.net>

All my traceroutes (from inside or out) stop at the last non-Google Fiber hop. For example, from my home router: traceroute to 2605:a601:f70:f0::1 (2605:a601:f70:f0::1), 30 hops max, 72 byte packets 1 * * * -- Chris Adams <cma@cmadams.net>

i think that is because the target is google business fiber and you're home fiber. atlas TraceMON (for 128292864) from within google fiber sure looks this way https://archive.psg.com/250912.intra-gf-traces.jpg randy

Why should that matter for routing tables? Should home users be unable to access business customer's services? -- kind regards Marco Send spam to abfall1757689109@stinkedores.dorfdsl.de

intra-AS bgp kink can be extreme, even without confed
Should home users be unable to access business customer's services?
yes. but the one i am trying to help diagnose seems not. randy

maybe you did not look at the ripe atlas tracemon https://archive.psg.com/250912.intra-gf-traces.jpg which is a set of traces from probes ONLY WITHIN GOOGLE FIBER AS. it shows one probe set able to reach the target and a lot of others not able to reach it. therefore the guess is that google fiber has at least two routing domains. the target is a google business fiber customer. and up-thread you will see a google home fiber unable to reach the target. oh, and this is v6 only. the target is reachable from anywhere in v4. and the user, a friend, says this has been going on for months, with google fiber unable to debug it. randy

FYI, my team is on it. Louie On Sat, Sep 13, 2025 at 3:35 AM Randy Bush via NANOG <nanog@lists.nanog.org> wrote:
