The simple thing to do is null route the offending host(s) until they call you and ask you to turn it off. If they don't and you don't get any complaints from your customers, then all is good :)

This is a reactive solution to the problem. Though there are times when the only solution you have is to attempt to quell the problem through a plethora of ugly ip route statements, I hardly think it is a good solution to the problem. Any person looking to harm your network with intent greater than that of a passing whim would probably decide to change his/her ip address after realizing that a host suddenly became unreachable. brad reynolds ber@cwru.edu
