I sure hope I know who we are peered with.. then again.. that's what my as object at the radb is for. The issue was rather that, you have direct peers, in which ideally a filter could be setup very easily to match that neighbor statement. With ra peerings, you have no neighbor statement to the ips.. a different way of doing it would be necessary, out-of-sync filters of mac addresses would need to be setup.. more complex. By doing so, someone else brought up the point that any transit that was not including a next-hop-self wouldn't go through.. good. Pretty ridiculous that certain providers of IXP transit charge x dollars a month for doing nothing but passing routes, NOT passing traffic. Force them to at least take the traffic into their router. It would also alleviate level 2 issues with providers doing that.. they already need to do it at pbnap and aads. rob > > > From: Robert Bowman <[email protected]> > > BGP peers and bgp peers through the routing arbiter of course.. or you > get an intentional level 2 problem again. > > well, you _do_ know who you're peering with right? > > ---Rob > - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
