That /24 doesn't show up in BGP
Somebody clipped the "unless something is broken" part of that statement.
It SHOULD NOT show up, but it does (ROSPRINT-AS, AS2854, does announce it and, among others, routeviews.org sees it).
So the simple conclusion is ROSPRINT-AS is broken. BTW, that route doesn't seem to propogate very far. I don't see it via Level3, Above.net, or TWTC. What I do see when looking at my incoming distribute list is that someone seems to keep trying to announce exactly 192/8. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
