anybody see similar routing loops for those other prefixes that'd make it look like 5999 is a blackhole community at abovenet, so this dude is seeing what ORBS saw way back when (2000, right) - that is, he had abuse issues, was downstream of a downstream of abovenet and got his /24 blackholed?
No, 6461:5999 is definitely not a blackhole community. I'm seeing prefixes tagged 5999 that are reachable. See for example 62.80.96.0/19. The only common factors I can see with these prefixes: 1) They are all announced with an AS path of 6461. 2) A large number seem to be related to dyanmic IP internet service. Some are registered to wireless providers, some have reverse DNS that indicates there's DSL behind them. But then there's some stuff that looks to be non-ISP: 204.227.66.0/24 is registered to "Ann Taylor Stores Corp", is part of ARIN assigned 204.227.64/19. However, none of the rest of that /19 is there. Puzzling... -- Ross Vandegrift ross () kallisti us "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.
