And what do you do with a BGP customer which sends you traffic from prefixes he doesn't want to announce to you? There are such customers. Fail filter ACL?
This has been my question with uRPF from the beginning. You can solve this on for some networks, but it doesn't scale very well. Especially where you really don't know that your customer's customer is doing this.
It's 2004, and so, your customers who want to do this have to explain why, and you have to maintain extra-ordinary filters for such customers, at either your cost or the customer's cost.
ah-ha! Patriot-Act!
