In this case, they're leaking CRL routes at MAE-east and Sprint is using them to get the traffic through rather than the "direct" route through the CIX (most likely because of the route dampening at Sprint-Stockton). This was supposed to have been fixed. I already spent nearly an hour on the phone a couple of weeks ago with the ANS people about this problem. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
