I don't do bogon filtering. I do take a bogon route feed from team cymru, but that won't stop me from reaching any announced subnets within "bogon space"[1]. And cymru has been pretty good about keeping up with the changes wrt what's a bogon and what's not. What I will do, next time we get space from ARIN (which I suspect isn't too far off) is setup 72box (or whatever /8 they're allocating from now) and repeat the exercise I did with 69/8 space so I have some idea where the idiot networks are (and try contacting them) before we start using or assigning IP's from that space. [1] at least not until cisco adds a feature allowing you to ignore new BGP routes for subnets of a bogon feed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
