As I recall, at some point Internic was handing out subnets of old class B space and reserving the remaining subnets for the same organisation. If that's the case here then, 164.103.0.0/16 should be advertised sprintlink instead of 164.103.3.0/24.
Nice thought, except it doesn't work in practice. We have 169.197.0/18. When we advertise it, Sean's filters prevent ICM/ICP from getting it. When we mis-advertise it as /16 the filter lets us through. My two messages to INSC, 2 to engineer@sl, and 4 to Sean didn't generate any solutions, so what makes you think it will work for 164.103.3.0/24?
