Facebook more specific via Level3 ?

Hi,

This specific, and many others, are only announced to peers in the
metro they originate in. To receive this prefix directly you'll
need to peer with us in Los Angeles.

the point is: Level3 is exporting this prefix to the EU since ~1 week …
Telia is learning it from Level3 and they also started to re-export it:

Telia Looking Glass
(Telia Looking Glass
r=Vienna)

Command: show route protocol bgp 31.13.71.36 table inet.0
31.13.71.0/24 *[BGP/170] 18w5d 16:40:16, MED 0, localpref 150
                      AS path: 3356 32934 I, validation-state: unverified
                    > to 80.239.128.178 via ae9.0

This is causing >120ms latency to Austrian (and some German ...) networks
towards Facebook - current traceroute from source network 188.172.239.0/24:

The admins of AS42473 started to drop the more specific from Level3 and now
they get it from Telia (which is the Level3 re-export they learned).

I guess you guys should talk to Level3 and ask them what the hell they are
doing? :).

Thanks & best regards
Jürgen

Are they replying with that subnet via dns when requests are being made?

Hi Luke,

please see https://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2017-March/090658.html ... I did some tests a few min ago and yes, I'm receiving the 31.13.77.x and 31.13.76.x via DNS for www.facebook.com.

Best regards
Jürgen
