I don't think it's Perth, the address has ".vic." in the name, which implies that the router in question is located in Victoria.

My guess is that there's a private network involved.

If you use AARNet's looking glass [0] it shows that its route to GEANT's London router goes through Singapore.

Yeah you're right, "pe1" shows up in many of their hostnames with different states in the name. And their looking glass shows a bunch of hops within Australia, none of which show up when I do a traceroute.


PE means provider edge. CE - customer edge.
