that doesn't help if people use local preference. one time coresite/any2ix california had an incident with massive packet loss, vocus withdrew advertisement whilst he.net continued to advertise for a while, then both withdrew, then vocus were the first to readvertise. people do use local preference and it can hurt especially in the case of high levels of packet loss rather than an outright outage.

I have seen this problem more than once, Vocus will advertise an International only customer on APE despite you not wanting them to. As a Vocus International customer I will always advertise to them with the community tag "4826:2073" so they prepend networks onto APE to stop this carry on.

Shouldn't Vocus be adding a community to let their customers prepend/withhold their routes on to AKL-IX if they're peering there (ditto for Megaport if they go there)? As per APE
