<br>
I'm having some problems getting Telstra inbound routes optimal - particularly for<br>
Perth-Originated Telstra/Bigpond traffic. My scenario is this:<br>
Telstra (Perth Originated) <-> Optus <-> Upstream ISP 1 (In Perth) <-> My AS<br>
Telstra (Perth Originated) <-> Upstream ISP 2 (In Melbourne) <-> My AS<br>
<br>
Regardless of BGP path padding, Telstra always prefers to route their<br>
traffic via Upstream ISP 2 (hand-off in Melbourne). I'd really like<br>
to be able to pick up Telstra Perth traffic in Perth as some of it is<br>
destined for services there rather than having it go Perth -> Melbourne<br>
-> Perth. All other main ISPs I've checked are being picked up fine<br>
(Ignoring TPG)<br>
<br>
Does anyone know if there's a policy around Telstra preferring Paid-Transit<br>
over Peering (regardless of inter-state) and/or if there's another way to<br>
overcome things without resorting to buying transit from them in Perth or<br>
dedicating a prefix for Perth services (which is what we've been doing to date).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
