could be a issue with hashing across multiple links and one link is having an issue. one trace can hash to one link and the other, even 1 ip difference, may hash to another as a different 5-tuple. there have been silent discarding reported on multiple vendor boxes over the years. not saying this is what the issue is but it is one possible explanation. glbx would have to check what their network is seeing. another possibility is return path which someone already mentioned.

Well yes and here is more weirdness. I reduced the ip by one and it does all the way. And it even appears to be the same server.

Thanks, i will shoot these to NANOG next time. Thanks for the suggestion.

Subject: Re: [j-nsp] Routing Issue

Are you certain that Savvis has a route to the network in question?

For future reference, these types of questions are perfect for the
NANOG mailing list.

Hello,

This is more of a general routing question/issue, but hopefully someone can help. This week i have been seeing wierd issues were customers are unable to get to some servers on the internet and its seems that this happens when the
route goes through Savvis.

For instance.

A customer server on my network running a traceroute to
mail.tecumsehherald.com gets the following...

orange:~>traceroute mail.tecumsehherald.com
traceroute to mail.tecumsehherald.com (64.14.74.42)

Now if i go to Global Crossings looking glass and run a trace from their DC
router to the same host, it makes it.

With all of my issues this week, the common thing seems to be Savvis. But
why would it not work just for my network. Its almost like Savvis is
blackholeing traffic from my network, but if i run a traceroute to
savvis.net, it goes through. So it only appears to be certain hosts.
