But this time AS4755 wasn't their customer. It's their own network in India! I think probably it will be hard for us and in general for technical community to comment on business side of it but I am just curious on technical side on what it is like that? Is it missing iBGP sessions or just intentional filtering of a group of prefixes via a peer group or based on some community tag? Thanks.
