My company plans to use DC/OS from Mesosphere and DC/OS is using 44.128.0.0/20 per default for overlay networking. This seems to have no impact since this overlay nets are only used in DC/OS clusters and not routed to the Internet, but might lead to problems in some cases...
Their documentation with this informations can be found at: https://docs.mesosphere.com/1.10/networking/virtual-networks/ip-per-containe...
You're posting using quoted printable, don't do that. I've fixed your link.
Is this already known?
News to me, and a really poor idea. There's other networks which could be used for this, without stepping on allocated space. 44.128.0.0/20 isn't used now, but neither was 1/8 or 5/8. I kinda want to announce 44.128.0.0/20 just to mess with them, might freak out if there's a route to that :)
Yes, one should consider announcing 44.128.0.0/20. They are squatting on space which is not theirs to squat on.
In addition to announcing 44.128.0.0/20, it may be good to ensure all of 44.0.0.0/8 is visible in the default-free zone and drop any packets received for unused IP addresses within 44.0.0.0/8 on the floor.
The Internet default-free zone at times seems to adhere to a "use it or lose it" mantra, and while this is unfortunate; announcing the 44net to the internet at large will send a clear message that the space is actually in use and should not be squatted on.
To completely cover the 44net block from a BGP perspective, in addition to the existing 44.0.0.0/9 and 44.128.0.0/10 announcement, 44.192.0.0/10 should also be announced (and nullrouted) from some vantage point.
I'm happy to do so if the community accepts my help in this regard. I have facilities to announce the prefix and ignore any traffic received for it.
Kind regards,
