Our ASN consists of a /22 we announce as /24s, two on each provider (bad, I know) what happened this morning was one upstream seems to have gotten some mud in their pudding and the interwebs couldn't get to those two /24. Because I'm pretty good at finding ways to ensure all my practices are bad our network DNS resolvers were on those two /24 also, so pretty much all our customers are pissed I ultimately disabled all my static routes internally, added the two /24 to the provider that wasn't smoking crack and dropped my ospf default route on the bad router and killed the peering session. when I added the two, before anything else, it brought everyone back up, they were going out bad peer 1 and in good guy peer 2, So had I been running full /22 on both peers I assume we wouldn't have known there was an issue other than problem calls for stuff that doesn't like assymetric paths, probably would have resulted in hours of troubleshooting before I looked at BGP I get bgpmon alerts, but have received none this morning how can I look back historically to see what of mine was being announced where and by whom? and whats the best free or low cost monitoring that I can get good alerts on? This may turn out not to have been a BGP issue, the upstream may have just stubbed their toe
