Upon further inspection, it seems more likely that the bgp optimiser is in ColoAU's network. Given the scale of AS 4637, if it were deployed inside Telstra I'd expect more problem reports. AS 4637 may actually just be an innocent bystander. It is interesting to note that the /23 only appears on their Sydney based routers on https://lg.coloau.com.au/ Is ColoAU's refusal to cooperate a matter of misunderstanding? Perhaps you should just straight up ask whether they use any type of "network optimisation" appliance. > PS: Still curious how, beside some RIB/FIB failure, how our AS ended > up there. I don't know why, but often fabricating random AS_PATH stuff seems to be part of it. Kind regards, Job
