There is a customer's customer who is advertising more-specifics at  
the IX (and using a different source AS, to boot).  I can think of  
a couple ways to prevent hearing these, but thought I should ask  
for suggestions first.


you should honor your customers routing policy and simply accept the  
routes.

Ah, stealing transit 101. How I love thee.
