Re: Policies: Routing a subset of another ISP's address block

You're going to have to exempt multihomed downstream customers from your
anti spoofing filters anyway, whether they use your space, someone else's
or their own.

indeed this seems to be the case.  which breaks the schemes for ingress
filtering based on forwarding table entries <sigh>.

To put it another way, if you have clueful downstreams, you should
delegate anti spoofing to them, they will do it closer to the edge where
there is no asymetrical routing.

one of the rare bits of positive feedback here.  multi-homed customers do
tend to be a bit more clued.  so, in this too rare instance, the pain is
near some clue to fix it.
