Hi ,
The problem is of Routing Advertisement with SingTel.
The situation is this,SkyCom & Brain both are connected to the Internet Backbone through SingTel.Now from some sites in USA,we have almost equal delay but from some sites we have a much delay as compared to Brain.e.g ; From route-server.cerf.net we have a delay of 540 ms and brain has 330 ms .When I traceroute from that router,we go to SingTel via another Path and Brain goes the other path.Now when I complained this thing to SingTel they said that Brain is also running its BGP while we rely on SingTel as we have the AS of SingTel.
You please just check by Telneting route-server.cerf.net and doing traceroute to both SKYCOM (203.208.143.129) & BRAIN (203.128.7.1).
Please guide me that How should I be able to solve this problem.Also let me know Is it SingTel's BGP Routing Problem that we are facing more delay or is it due to CERF Net's IGP.Is the Brain running BGP more efficiently than SingTel ?
Following is the response I get for SkyCom and Brain from Cerf Net's Router .
