One of my client has peering with nlayer and a provider from Asia. It seems from one major ISP in US, the best path is through this Asia provider, instead of through nlayer which we want it to be.
It seems this major ISP does not have a direct peering with nlayer AS 4436 is the cause of this problem.
What is the best way to address this problem?
Add BGP communities to your client's announcements directing the Asia provider to prepend their AS X times (whatever value of X works best for you) on passing your client's prefixes to that major ISP in the US. The Asia provider should be able to provide you a list of their BGP control communities. -DMM
