Does anybody have\had experience with BGP announces containing AS 0 in AS path? I know that AS 0 is reserved by IANA, but still, is it possible to receive such announce messages?

eBGP or iBGP? What type of device and/or software are you using to speak BGP? As far as I know, most devices should NOT let you set your ASN to 0 or let you add it to the AS path. My guess is it's probably going to be filtered by the BGP scanner, but I don't have any gear laying around that I can play with at the moment to confirm. :) -- Kameron Gasso | kameron@gasso.org
