What can I do agaist "Prefix xxx is generating a lot of BGP updates for many peers"? Is it "my fault" after all, or some upstream doing strange things?

@mark22k

Maybe this was misunderstanding.

bgp.tools alerts me that my prefix is generating a lot of BGP updates. But I don't know where from. My fault? Somewhere upstream?

@benjojo can you clarify? The "Details" link for the alert leads to a 404 page.

@uvok The "Details" link where? That sounds like a bug

@benjojo
On the alert details, i.e. https://bgp.tools/authed/manage-alerts?detail=...

Alert Type: Originated Prefix is generating lots of updates (More details on this alert type)

Which leads to
