Have bogon filters outlived their use? Is it time to recommend people go to a simpler bogon filter (e.g. no 1918, Class D, Class E) that doesn't need to be updated as frequently?
Seems like filtering against those could be done on the backplane, so to speak. One of the things that has always puzzled me is this: In the default-free zone, why is necessary to filter _against_ anybody? Seems like traffic for which there is no route would at most be dumped to an error-log someplace. For folks with a default route, I have long advocated (with no success what ever) filtering against stuff like the above, your own networks as sourced somewhere else, such. I also think a central blacklist a la spamhaus for networks makes sense. -- Requiescas in pace o email Two identifying characteristics of System Administrators: Ex turpi causa non oritur actio Infallibility, and the ability to learn from their mistakes.
