It would appear that the mysterious AS65000 has been sort of shadowing the movements of AS56630 for some time now... over six months, I guess, at least since 2018-08-17, according to the RIPE data on that last route shown above. Eveywhere AS56630 goes, AS65000 goes also. When one moves, the other does also, and on the same day. Quite a romance going on between those two!
If anyone cares to look into AS-PATHs... https://stat.ripe.net/data/bgp-state/data.json?resource=91.244.204.0/22×tamp=2019-04-09T08:00 In this particular query AS65000 only shows up once (plus on a community entry), with AS-PATH "6881 3216 56630 56630 65000". (...)
P.S. I'm not entirely sure that I understand why a Lithuanian ASN (AS56630) would be called upon to provide routing for an alleged telecom company located in Tbilisi, Georgia (i.e. GE-RAILWAYTELECOM-20120605).
It's only 2500km (~1600 miles) between Tiblissi and Vilnius... :-)) Cheers, Carlos
