Ideally you want to be able to detect this specific abuse.  The same
tools can be useful in diagnosis of pathological problems or for
collection of statistics.

This filtering is not unlike the concept of a screening table in 
SMDS where packets are filtered on source and destination E.164
addresses by the SMDS switch. Works fairly well.  Some of these
switches have software that issues alerts when the screening fails.
If they dont already, would the Gigaswitch folks add another knob to
send traps or alerts when an access violation happens ?
