Hi John, I have gone through this pain previously and I suggest you contact the main Geo IP database providers and have them update their DB as some organisation use them, they don't rely on IRR entries. Some hosting companies and content/streaming/Pay-TV providers also use these GeoIP Databases which may take a while to update. Here are a some of these companies FYI; IP2Location www.ip2location.com W3C Geolocation Quova www.quova.com Geo IP by MaxMind www.maxmind.com Cheers, Ahad On Thu, Mar 21, 2019 at 1:05 AM John Alcock <john@alcock.org> wrote:
Odd Issues
We recently went through an IP Broker and bought a /18 worth of IP's
I am listing all my information below. Should be public record.
AS Number/Range 395437 AS Handle AS395437 AS Name HIGHLANDTEL RPKI Certified Yes
As for the IP Block
Net Range 138.43.128.0 - 138.43.191.255 CIDR 138.43.128.0/18 Net Name HCL-73 Net Handle NET-138-43-128-0-1 Net Type Direct Allocation Parent NET-138-0-0-0-0 (VR-ARIN) RPKI Certified Yes
In addition, I believe I got all the information in the IRR. I am unclear on this part, but I do know ATT is happy now. I can pass traffic through their network.
whois -h whois.bgpmon.net " --roa 395437 138.43.128.0/24"
0 - Valid ------------------------ ROA Details ------------------------ Origin ASN: AS395437 Not valid Before: 2019-02-13 05:00:00 Not valid After: 2029-02-01 05:00:00 Expires in 9y318d10h46m2.39999997615814s Trust Anchor: rpki.arin.net Prefixes: 138.43.128.0/18 (max length /24)
So here is my problem. There are certain sites I can not get to on the new ip block.
clover.com - They are a large POS vendor catering to small business idrive.com - Online backup heart.org - american heart association onlineproviderservices.com - Looks like an outsourced group that handles medicare landstar.com - trucking company
I am working on trying to contact the companies above, but I have started resorting to public shaming on social media. Not an ideal solution.
My thought, could I be missing something? Perhaps I need to add a specfic entry in the IRR or anything? Just seems like a lot of sites will not accept my traffic.
Any experts like to chime in?
John
