Is there a compelling reason you should allow this? If yes, you can't use uRPF and you have to install an acl to do sanity checking on the customer's source addresses. If no, they'll have to announce those routes to you. If they set the no export community they still won't get any inbound traffic to speak of. > uRPF seems like a not so good solution > for these instances :( especially since some of these are our worst > abusers :( Well if these are your worst abusers, it seems to me uRPF is exactly what those customers need. ;-)
