Welcome to installment 2 of ALGX leaking routes. If they have any connectivity to speak of by the end of the day, I'd be amazed.....
Well, it was one of ALGX downstreams leaking to them. Shame on them for not filtering their customer properly. How many times do we have to learn this lesson?
I noticed this right as it happened ( or rather our NOC did ) as we dropped our ALGX peering sessions. We sent an email to their NOC and the downstream customer letting them know what happened.
This is part of one email that we got from them a while ago: "1. You should be using noc@algx.net for reporting problems with your peers and it is 24X7. Fo new turnups, please use peering@algx.netNo more digex.net. - 866-696-2794 options 1 8824"
The downstream customer responded right away. The ALGX noc email bounced back to me.
