Morning All,



So I've been asked by a customer to explain a traceroute, after reviewing it and telling them to contact Telstra because the hop count out of the Telstra network is putrid, I noticed something else unusual/concerning:

Any idea's on why Telstra are using 30.0.0.0 addresses as if it's RFC1918 private IP space, surely this is the oversight of someone who needs to find a new job.



This IP space belongs to the US Department of Defense.... WTF?



Kindest Regards,
