Go ARIN. </sarcasm> One line becomes two in your ACL ? ip permit 64.0.0.0/8 ip deny 64.0.0.0/2 The CPU loss for one more ACL line is probably offsetting the gains of spoofed traffic pretty well. That will even scale for a little while, at least for /9 and /10 in the permit line, before you seriously have to think about how much still-unallocated space you will gratutiously allow through your ACL. bye,Kai
