When doing a traceroute on a 2900, I am seeing returns of the destination IP instead of the real internet IP.
#trace 4.2.2.1 sou g0/0.102
Type escape sequence to abort.

If I enable DNS lookup, the IP is replaced with the domain name used such as yahoo.com or google.

I am also seeing our ASN in the trace.
I have never seen this before on any router, switch or PC. What could be causing this? If a client behind the router does a trace, they get *** for each hop beyond #2 which is the firewall until the final destination.
