BTW- You might try a traceroute to an address in 140.222/16. That's the ANS backbone. For example, traceroute 140.222.32.62 would verify that you could reach ANS NY POP. Traceroute 140.222.1.1 would give you a !H as soon as you reach an ANS interface (look for t3.ans.net in the DNS if the response is not from a 140.222 address).

Will 140.222.0.0 continue to work? We 'ip default-network 140.222.0.0' and will have to change if this NSFnet backbone net ceases to exist.

AS 690 = NSFNET/ANSnet backbone AS, with backbone net 140.222/16 Just because NSFNET is going away doesn't mean that ANSnet is disappearing; "reports of [its] death are extremely exaggerated"... ;-) Steve Richardson/Merit

I would bet lots of smaller ISPs have this net out there in their routing tables as gateway of last resort.
