so... the subject is somewhat disingenious. there is no problem with a prefix being announced by more than one ASN. Per the original subject, this seemed to be your gripe. however, the thread has devolved into someone using network resources w/o registration... which is different.

Hi,
Here is some operational content, instead of Packet Kiddies trying to rape each other verbally ;)
According to Toshikazu Saito (Powerdcom):
I know both ASs, 4436 and 4474 are yours, so nlayer should resolve this problem or respond to this.
But:
OrgName: Global Village Communication, Inc. OrgID: GVC-8 Address: 1144 East Arques Avenue City: Sunnyvale StateProv: CA PostalCode: 94086 Country: US
ASNumber: 4474 ASName: GVIL1 ASHandle: AS4474 Comment: The information for this ASN has been reported to Comment: be invalid. ARIN has attempted to obtain updated data, but has Comment: been unsuccessful. To provide current contact information, Comment: please e-mail hostmaster@arin.net. RegDate: 1995-03-08 Updated: 2003-07-31
The reason for the above was that we are currently seeing 2001:590::/32 announced by both AS4436 (nLayer) and AS4474 (Global Village Communication) but apparently this is the same company and apparently they are using the bogus ASN. Bogus as it has no valid contact information
See telnet://grh.sixxs.net or http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/lg/?find=2001:590::/32 for the odd routes and who it goes over.
As nLayer seems to be able to only send ticket responses but there seems to be no real user alive maybe it is time to start letting their peers ask them what to do with this and if they can't contact them to just start depeering? Unresponsive "NOC"'s is a real nightmare.
Greets, Jeroen
