I looks like it is going to SDN and Airstream for the most part. There are two short term solutions; 1. move those to the CNS switch, I have Copper SFPs I can loan if necessary. 2. I can stop announcing those AS to the Akamai route collector. The longer term solution is to get the Juniper switches installed.
