Are there any big networks that drop or penalize announcements like this?It's possible you could get your peering request denied for this. I have put *reasonable* prefix aggregation into peering requirements for some years now. If you are a small eyeball network with 8192 IP addresses and originate 32 /24's, that is *not* reasonable.
It is quite an issue when a network tries to programmatically filter-out the /24 more-specifics advertisements made from an allocated, .e.g, /20. Such anti-disaggregation/save-my-TCAM efforts really do not work, and will spawn all manner of support tickets. I'm saying this in the hope that it may prevent someone from reading this thread and concluding that it may be a good idea to try. It is not. Speaking to your peers is good, as I think you're encouraging there. I would of course default to asking them if they've read from the Good Book of RPKI. :) I also often find that very outdated "Good Security Practice" is as much to blame for this as anything else, and so when we do talk to our peers and/or customers, we should always be asking the question: "who told you this was a good idea?" -- Tom
