Is it common in the industry for a colocation provider, when requested to put an egress ACL facing us such as:
deny udp any a.b.c.d/24 eq 80

We have always accommodated temporary ACL's for active DDOS attacks. I think that is fairly standard across the ISP/hosting industry. I do feel it is bad practice to regularly implement customer specific ACL's on routers. If a customer wants a managed firewall we have a full range of those services available. - Kevin
