Maybe this will have the positive effect of motivating Cisco to do more to encourage best practices such as edge anti-spoof filtering. To begin with, Barry Green's presentations on these issues are hidden away on his/Cisco's FTP server (ftp://ftp-eng.cisco.com/cons/) -- maybe it would be beneficial to put them (along with write-ups) in an easily-accessible and often-visited area of the main site where people will see them. These issues aren't just for ISPs: if edge networks would filter their borders, ISPs wouldn't have to do it for them. (Or in most cases, fail to do it for them.) -Terry
