I think this is the most important point so far. There are a lot of providers that think that their announcements need to be global to manage link/load balancing with their peers/upstreams. Proper use of no-export (or similar) on the more specifics and the aggregate being sent out will reduce the global noise significantly. Perhaps some of the providers to these networks will nudge them a bit more to use proper techniques. I'm working on routing leaks this month. There have already been over 2600 leak events today that could have been prevented with as-path filters of some sort, either on a cutomer or peer. (this would obviously be in-addition to prefix-list filters). - Jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from [email protected] clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
