Something which makes troubleshooting job so hard is lack of looking glasses by Indian ISPs. I was wondering if community ever discussed this and tried moving in direction that all Indian ISPs offer a looking glass for clear view of routing from their network.
So far major ISP BSNL is without looking glass, STPI has a link which doesn't works, Tata offers on main international backbone AS6453 but their Indian part VSNL AS4755 looking glass here doesn't works. For Reliance also main backbone which was Flag Telecom AS15412 works but their domestic backbone Reliance Communications AS18101 looking glass has a broken link. Only Airtel seems to be having a decent looking glass though that also has a captcha to make life hard. :)
I wonder why having a looking glass along with a route server to telnet is not a treated as requirement?
