that was/is kindof orthoginal to the question... would the sidr plan for routing security have been a help in this event?
SIDR is intended to provide route-origination validation - it isn't intended to be nor can it possibly be a remedy for vendor-specific implementation problems. Validation storm-control is something which must be accounted for in SIDR/DANE architecture, implementation, and deployment. But at the end of the day, vendors are still responsible for their own code. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Roland Dobbins <rdobbins@arbor.net> // <http://www.arbornetworks.com> The basis of optimism is sheer terror. -- Oscar Wilde
