The incumbent operators and cable companies want nothing to do with these
networks because they already have their own. I’ve worked with several
smaller regional providers and WISPs that would love to have access to muni
networks but the local network muni either won’t allow the access or
I once worked for a provider who had a company next door that ran a small
datacenter of about a dozen or so racks.They had been sold and all of their
infrastructure had been virtualized and moved to the new owner’s network.
The last task of the local admin was to just get rid of
Is it even worth sending abuse reports anymore? Currently we just
block bad IPs at our network border and move on but we have seen quite
an uptick lately in attacks and probes from domestic IPs (US) on our
VoIP platforms.Our #1 offender is coming from Microsoft Azure IPs.
We have talked

At my last employer we installed lots of Adtrans at Car Dealerships, Hotels,

of 10 the UPS 2-3 times older than the life cycle of the battery and no one
ever knew that you could change the battery in them.So they
I don’t think that refusing Russian ASNs will do much to stop any kind of
attacks. They are going to attack from botnets that are global so that’s not
going to stop them.If anything blocking Russian ASNs will stop the flow of
information going into Russia. I think we’re better off
but they pay us and you don’t so block it
yourself”.
Of course it it’s your customer that’s sending them crap traffic they will go

The OP can always take the provider's address space plus their
customer's routes and use a default route to fill in the blanks.I
did this at a provider years ago where the global routing table
outgrew the speed they could spend the money on upgrades and it worked
out well.I think it was
Google is pretty unresponsive when it comes to this stuff.I wasted a lot of
time trying to report attacks against our networks that turned out to be a
futile exercise.It’s an issue that’s all too common to the large providers.
Microsoft, Digital Ocean, Amazon, etc, all of them make
“thought that google fi was a neutral pipe.”
There is nothing neutral about Google or any of companies that are their
competitors.They all have some sort of agenda which is to do what’s best
for them or what they *think* is best for everyone else. Even if it’s not.

Unless you are mega huge gigantor network they will never respond. I tried for

The only real reason I can think that you would want space SWIPed to you is if
you are trying to get an allocation of your own and trying to prove you have
existing space to renumber out of.
In 25 years of working for ISPs I don’t think I’ve ever worked for one that
SWIPed IP space of any size
I wonder. Has there ever been a case where ARIN took action for a violation of

They support /31s and have for some time. The trick we found is that the
Mikrotik has to be the higher numbered IP and network address has to be the
lower
add address=x.x.x.61/31 interface=ether1--dia network=x.x.x.60
Then point your default route at the lower numbered IP in the /31.
That seems to be what NANOG is good at. There is always a topic that seems to
drag on for weeks after all valid points of the discussion have been fully
discussed.
