hrm, what nodes don't run 55/53/77/103? What do? Do you have a list? Could we have it?
I'm sure you know what devices in your network run Mobile IP or Sun ND (to paraphrase Randy Bush, you can probably count them on the fingers of your nose). Router#conf t Router(config)#ip receive-acl 10 no-idiocy
Seriously though... the edge networks (as Jared pointed out) should be able to decide what they want to filter and what they don't... perhaps some large ISP would decide you don't want any traffic from 212/8 or perhaps all porn? Or all religious material? You don't want someone deciding what you do and don't get... unless that someone is you :)
That's why I said that transit networks could filter only towards their own infrastructure.
yes... inside my network I know what my loopbacks and links are, inside yours?? No idea... or Jared's or Tim Battles or...
Luckily it's not your responsibility to protect them (only to intervene when advised they're under attack, which I've heard you're doing a very good job at - but that aside).
