For those of you following the "incident" on Friday, I have now implemented ip-based filters for MAI.NET and their downstream neighbors. This will prevent MAI or their downstream neighbors from advertising routes other than their own. As well, Vince from MAI has made considerable effort (along with Jack Dolan from Bay Networks) to add access-lists on their router to ensure if there is a problem, it doesn't propagate outside their network. Keep on keepin' on, Alex Sprintlink
