[members-discuss] Our AS is in a macro that we don't authorize.

Hi,

I do understand your concerns, but:
also your AS number shows up in someone elses AS-SET is does not mean any traffic being routed anywhere.
This is mainly a documentational and a possible security issue (also no harm seems to be done by now).
AS24748 seem to have 106 Peers - far away from the "thousands".
The macro: AS24748:AS-THINX contains about every single active AS-Number i know of (at least the first 10 of 15 that came into my mind were in there).
So there guy's built a fancy and completely useless macro - maybe they shouldn't consider their upstream to be their customers.
Anyhow - forget about them or try to make them clean up their mess - but I don't think this mailinglist might be able to help you any further.

Kind regards
 Karl

I want my traffic routed where I want it.

I'm not a member of that IX and if you're routing traffic through this
IX, it's being a latency problem (my servers are a far away from that
IX, +60 ms) and possibly a hijaking security problem.
