I'm not positive this is the correct list to ask, but it is a securityconcern, so I thought I would. The company I work for had T1 linesrunning to our office provided by a local provider. We had our own Cblock of IPs being announced by them and routed to us over those T1s.Our relationship with them went sour (for many reasons I won't get intohere), and we had to move to a different provider. We had the routingswitched over to them. Everything was fine. Here it is a few weekslater, and suddenly our old provider starts announcing these IPs again.The end result is a partial DOS attack (hence writing to this list) assome people can't reach us. They won't stop the announcement. I don'tknow all the details on what they've said there as it's now gone toexecutives and legal people dealing with them. Is there anything we cando here from a network standpoint? Someone we can report them to? Howdo people protect themselves from just anyone announcing IPs that aren'ttheirs?
