### Description of the problem
my testnet node 1 (QNODE-TEST) started logging some events yesterday (Apr-2-2023), starting at 2023-04-02 13:13:07 PDT. Events continued until the node was restarted at 2023-04-02 14:06:08 PDT. a pair of the same event was logged every 5s or so:
`2023-04-02 13:13:07 💔 The bootnode you want to connect to at `/ip4/84.245.33.122/tcp/30333/p2p/12D3KooWRkGLz4YbVmrsWK75VjFTs8NvaBu42xhAmQaP4KeJpw1L` provided a different peer ID `12D3KooWJgniH6kTFxLAZUVaP2nE7ohrMVjFMXBbbyph1uGYFDL6` than the one you expect `12D3KooWRkGLz4YbVmrsWK75VjFTs8NvaBu42xhAmQaP4KeJpw1L`
I posted about this on the discord testnet-validator-general channel: https://discord.com/channels/775720634848116807/1050508965647233055/1092203956324814848
Another validator (Bart | StakeSafe) confirmed that the IP address logged (84.245.33.122) belonged to his ISP (Cambrium IT Services BV). All of the AZF bootnodes seem to be hosted on Amazon, so there was a mismatch of sort
the connection attempted was using one of my "regular" peers IP address along with a peer_id belonging to an actual AZF bootnode (the first on the bootnode list): _bootnode-eu-central-1-0.test.azero.dev_
_bootnode-eu-central-1-0.test.azero.dev_ resolved to the correct IP address (18.184.79.200) on the same testnet machine
the problem persisted until i restarted aleph-node. after restarting, the issue disappeared
