The more important question - why didn’t the route servers drop that? I’d assume there should be inbound filters to drop bogons+default+$otherbadstuff. On a larger scale, this sort of thing begs the question - do we need to have folks in some sort of isolated VLAN with test sessions to the route servers upon turnup? SIX does this, as well as others, I suspect to prevent these exact issues from happening.

Looking at route filters right now and that I attached, I don't see that I'm advertising a default route unless I'm looking in the wrong spot. I did not setup any portion of the BGP as I know I'm not an expert or comfortable setting it up, thus why I hired a consultant to do it for me. They're a big Mikrotik consultant from Missouri. I only see us advertising 204.73.77.0/24, 162.255.252.0/22 in our route filters right now that I sent.
