Hey guys! So I have a question regarding some really strange routes in my routing table.

I recently put my Huawei B818 4G router into bridged mode behind pfSense, which is now my main router. Upon doing so, I notice these static entries that pop in and out of my routing table. They are

163.47.0.1 - acoresw05.metro-cit.ac.jp
163.47.0.2 - aedgesw30.metro-cit.ac.jp
163.47.0.3 - doesn't resolve.

And also I am noticing a route for 163.47.0.0/16.

Now, given that I am routing traffic through a university in Japan, this did strike me as a bit odd.



Your thoughts?

Thanks

Plus they are on my WAN interface which is receiving IP via DHCP from ISP
You appear to be using a 4G/LTE router. Are you geographically close to Japan? Is it simply because your mobile operator routes their traffic through Japan?
