[atlas] Routing glitch between BSNL and F Root

Hello,



There has been some routing glitch in the F root server instance running in
Chennai, India by niXi AS 24049.

Govt. owned BSNL AS9829 routers are not hearing any BGP announcements and
thus F root does not works at all on BSNL.


anurag at laptop ~ $ traceroute f.root-servers.net -A
traceroute to f.root-servers.net (192.5.5.241), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets

I have been hosting RIPE Probe #1032 and here is F Root connectivity data
from proble:

As we can see root server is not accessible at all from Jan and even in
Nov, Dec last year it was available with over 300ms latency which indicates
network was not using Chennai anycast node since latency between this test
probe placed in Haryana (North India) and Chennai (South India) should be
around 70ms.



Thanks.
