We could ask Cisco and Juniper to add a way of 'artificially' remove networks from the CEF table (with an ACL or so). That way, even with loose-RPF, the packet will be dropped based on source-address at the ingress without consuming CPU. Or maybe such a feature already exist Andr� At 09:06 25.03.2003 -0500, Christian Liendo wrote: >Looking for advice. > >I am sorry if this was discussed before, but I cannot seem to find this. >I want to use source routing as a way to stop a DoS rather than use access-lists. > >In other words, lets say I know the source IP (range of IPs) of an attack and they do not change. > >If the destination stays the same I can easily null route the destination, but what if the destination constantly changes.
