Youtube BGP/IP hijacked
Scott, re “the youtube engineer’s fix” from the ripe page of advertising 2 /25’s to be longer prefix matches then the /24 pakistan was hijacking-
Don’t most providers deny 0.0.0.0/0 ge 25
Anyway?
Who accepted a /25?
Or all these years have I been fooled into thinking only 0.0.0.0/0 le 24 will work?
Thanks,
Joe

This is why filtering in BGP (in and out) is a good idea. But also a demonstration of lack-of-BGP skills on a global basis!

As you may be aware from recent news reports, traffic to the youtube.com website was ‘hijacked’ on a global scale on Sunday, 24 February 2008. The incident was a result of the unauthorized BGP announcement of the prefix 208.65.153.0/24 and caused the popular video sharing website to become unreachable from most, if not all, of the Internet. http://www.ripe.net/news/study-youtube-hijacking.html
