If they have it enabled (eg: 10.0.0.0/24 has it enabled), but nobody else does, it allows everyone else to spoof from the 10/24 prefix causing large sets of complaints to filter into their mailbox. If we're able to authenticate the sources, then we can presume abuse reports are authentic. (aside from address space hijacking issues). it all comes down to filtering, filtering, filtering. announcement filtering, anti-spoof filtering, peer filtering. If you're not doing this, you *SHOULD* be. I know it's hard to do these things in the current business environment. Those of you that can, please take the time to do this. It will make the lives of the rest of us much easier when tracing attacks back. For those of you that are doing IPv6 deployments, might I suggest you also take the time to do the same? I know that Cisco has v6 u-rpf support already. - Jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from [email protected] clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
