you might be amused to write a bit of code to see if your ix peers are giving you next-hops of other provider(s). it is clear that a number of providers are selling transit across the ixs. not at all cool. we can't decide whether to force next hop on their routes, or keep watching and de-peer them if they do not cease and desist. what do others do in this circumstance?
Note some people are: a) Selling/Giving transit (often backup) *but* setting next-hop (much less bad if bad at all) b) Setting next hop to other routers also owned by them (nothing wrong with this). I think one major MAE user is doing this to work around HOL blocking. -- Alex Bligh GX Networks (formerly Xara Networks)
