Where do you draw the line between large and not large? Does a university with a /16 count as large? We do both SAV and a version of uRPF. It makes our network run better, saves us money (reduces the amount of time we spend on support and makes troubled / distressed / evil / mean / nasty boxes easier to track down) and reduces backbone congestion making the network run better. Another benefit is it improves the world (betcha' were wondering if I'd squeeze all that in).
We're now blocking all SMTP traffic leaving the campus from non-blessed sources (read mail servers). The first day doing this we had comments about less junk mail traffic. We block traffic we consider harmful that shouldn't leave the campus. We're trying to do our part.
Any suggestions how we can do better?
yes. contact the nanog program committee so you can come to san francisco and tell the rest of us how you did it -- both in the ones and zeros, and in the dollars and cents. -- Paul Vixie
