[AusNOG] Urgent: Telstra NOC

[David Hughes]

That's an assumption Mark.  The 'formal channel' for a network operator chasing a route leak would be to look up PeeringDB and try that contact info.  We don't k now if the OP tried that so we don't know if that failed.

The fact that Telstra has staff (and I assume it's more than just Russell) participating on an industry list like this make perfect sense and is an effective addition to their other contact channels.

    That however does mean that Telstra’s formal channels aren’t working
    properly.  If you can’t reach the NOC via formal channels then there
    is a problem.  No one should have to come here and ask for bad
    announcements to be withdrawn.  Russell shouldn’t have to do anything
    but enjoy his time off when on leave.  While we are thankful he did
    react we all need time off for our mental health.

Telstra is a big beast with lots of moving parts, yet I've lost count of the number of times issues have been addressed through this informal channel.  Nice one guys.
