MASTER-IAC robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Spain (IAC Teide Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB211017.99 (trigger No 1079966,16h 19m 54.86s , -15d 50m 31.6s, R=0.05) errorbox  69997 sec after notice time and 70095 sec after trigger time at 2021-10-18 19:13:31 UT, with upper limit up to  16.2 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 69 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.2 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 23 deg., longitude l = 359 deg.
