Looks like this incident didn't start today. I show it starting back on 2/22 at 00:31:38 UTC. It then persisted till 3/19 where it started to get withdrawn by most peers. It wasn't until 3/20 at 19:10:10 UTC when it was globally withdrawn from all peers that were advertising it.
I'll be like Job and plug monitoring. Had FaleMais and/or University of Iowa been monitoring their own prefixes as well as what they advertised (originate in this case), this could have been stopped when it started almost a month ago. --Tim On 20.03.2018 13:32, Sandra Murphy wrote: > You are pointing out that 138.255.192.0/22 is the likely cause of the hijack > of 128.255.192.0/22, right? > > (No need to be privately told - that's straight from the LACNIC Whois) > > --Sandy > On Mar 20, 2018, at 3:40 PM, Alejandro Acosta > <alejandroacostaal...@gmail.com> wrote: Hello, Someone in Lacnog privately > told me this: aut-num: AS263971 owner: FaleMais Comunicações LTDA > responsible: Paulo Henrique Mem Pereira owner-c: LEVAL5 routing-c: LEVAL5 > abuse-c: LEVAL5 created: 20150831 changed: 20150831 inetnum: 138.255.192.0/22 > inetnum: 2804:28a0::/32 inetnum: 170.254.76.0/22 <http://170.254.76.0/22 [1]> > Regards, Alejandro, El 20/3/18 a las 2:35 p. m., Jay Ford escribió: Something > apparently in Brazil is hijacking 128.255.192.0/22, part of 128.255.0.0/16 > which is held by the University of Iowa.

Also useful would be some functional contact for AS263971. Any help will be appreciated. ________________________________________________________________________ Jay Ford, Network Engineering Group, Information Technology Services University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242 email: jay-f...@uiowa.edu, phone: 319-335-5555 Links: ------ [1] http://170.254.76.0/22
