Dear all,
I have a Tor relay running on Amazon EC2 (IP range: 52.0.0.0/11) and for sometime I am receiving the messages:
http status 400 ("Authdir is rejecting routers in this range.") response from dirserver 'X.X.X.X:80'. Please correct.
The router disappeared from the Tor Directory and the consensus. Its a non-exit node and there seems to be some traffic going on.
Was there a particular reason for the block or was this specific to my router only? Should I consider moving to a different provider or was I specifically targeted by the block and should not attempt moving somewhere else.
My details:
Nickname: Yankee2 IP: 52.25.145.191 Hash: CA631DB7F8E3E00A148D2D1D0BBD1B5710888D8E
Best, Yousif

Was your relay doing experiments on onion services or Tor's distributed hash table?
Cheers, Philipp

The node itself is not contributing much bandwidth but I am trying to maintain the limits set by the free tier of the Amazon EC2. Nevertheless, are experiments on Tor’s DHT not welcome?

Experiments on Tor's DHT often try to discover hidden service addresses. This is considered an attack, and relays that perform this attack are currently being blocked.
