Thanks for the reply, James. I wish I could tell you the answer. We see traffic passing through some of the routers (transit), but on each network, or their downstreams there seem to be different devices filtering. Sometimes it is a border or peering router. In other cases, it has been access devices, such as firewalls. One we resolved this morning (with some help from the good folks at ARIN) was a downstream provider from one of these transit providers that was filtering in their devices as well. I am just trying to raise general awareness that the 69.0.0.0/8 block is assigned and out there in use, and to get people to re-examine their filters, access lists, etc. You help and response is appreciated.

We are finding that many routers are still filtering 69.0.0.0/8. This block used to be restricted, but was assigned by IANA to ARIN in August of 2002. If anyone is still filtering this block in their routers, please remove the filters! Here are some of the destinations that are not reachable if your
