Well,

It has been a challenge.  I am not sure who helped or fixed the problem, but now anything hosted on softlayer.com is responding.

I am not sure if there was anyone lurking on the list that helped out, but if you are, Thank You.

I have a batch of new stuff not working, but they may be one off's.  I am trying to find a pattern.

Perhaps it won't work because their customer support will ask you for bi-directional traceroute and refused to forward to backbone team.

 

Then they'll say it's not their fault and you can see the packet is dropped outside our network.

 

Here's a sample traceroute from SoftLayer Washington, San Jose and Seattle in case someone needs it:

This is the best approach. Have run into this problem a few times and had zero success getting the filters removed without having SL customers log tickets with support. Verbiage needs to be “this prefix is blocked, please escalate to your backbone team”.

Another idea...

 

Have you tried reaching out to some of the blocked sites?  They likely have better contact information than is available publicly, especially a larger one like indeed.

Still looking for anyone from softlayer.com

 

It has been a challenge.  Anything hosted by softlayer.com is being blocked.

 

Here is a small list so far

 

 

It is growing every day.

Afternoon,

 

Thought I would start a new thread.  After researching, traceroutes, etc, I think I found my problem.

 

9 out of the 10 sites that subscribers on my new block is being hosted by softlayer.

 

Anyone on the list have contacts with softlayer.  Right now I have an email to abuse.  The support line will not help me out.
