Peter,

Welcome to the swamps. If your gateway is peeping EGP with the core, you
will see a lot of this. The stuff I see sloshing by linkabit-gw is
truly awsome and includes many instances like yours. Even after I
disabled all reachability to all nets from that gateway for several
hours various hosts and gateways continued to route traffic for
j-random nets via it. Not knowing whether the senders were hosts or
gateways, linkabit-gw spat back redirects, but few seemed to believe
them (probably gateways masked in host clothing). In spite of the
fact the core gateways (for the moment) correctly reveal the routes
for that gateway, about two packets per second averaged throughout the
day are being routed incorrectly to linkabit-gw. See what you might
be in for?
