If I receive some traffic at an IXpeering router interface, I might want
to know how I got it.
If it is a stream of bad traffic I might want to ask my upstream peer to
help turn it off.
How do I find out who did send it to me?
If I capture a sample packet I could see the source MAC address. Now I
have to identify who owns the device with that MAC.
Is there any guidance from the IX operators on how to do this?
I'm sure phone calls to Ops teams are not cost effective or time
efficient for anyone.
A common programmatic method across IXes would suit my use-case
admirably.
I'd like to hear from anybody who either has a method in an IX, or who
would like a method to exist.
