So NANOGer's, what will be the game plan when something like this happens, will you be joining NATO and pulling fiber. I wonder when all types of warm-fuzzy filtering will be drafted into networking: "Thou shall re-read RFC4953 lest you want Predator strikes on your NAP locations...We have a large supply of tin hats on stock ...

All humor aside, I'm curious to know what can anyone truly do at the end of the day if say a botnet was used to instigate a situation. Surely someone would have to say something to the tune of "better now than never" to implement BCP filtering on a large scale. Knobs, Levers, Dials and Switches: Now and Then (please sir, may I have some more ?) is 7 years old yet I wonder in practice, how many networks have 38/84 filtering. I'm wondering why it hasn't been implemented off the shelf in some of the newer equipment. This is not to say "huge backbones" should have it, but think about it, if smaller networks implemented it from the rip, the overheard wouldn't hurt that many of the bigger guys. On the contrary, my theory is it would save them headaches in the long run... Guess that's a pragmatic approach. Better that than an immediate pessimistic one. -- =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ J.
