I mean really simple.  Like 2000::/3.  If it's not in there it's bogon, yes ?

Been using that on the advanced networks side for ... OK, years. Seems to work. Kept unseemingly bogons like 1000::/3 out, except for the deprecated 6bone pTLA, 3FFF::

What I'm really asking, is for folks thoughts on using this - is it too restrictive ?

For leaks of old 6bone space, which I haven't seen for a long while, probably not. But filter aginst that, and maybe it will be fine. It's all in the RIR allocations....

How long until it's obsolete ?

Should be a really long time no ?

Mmm...Last table entry in my table is: 2C0F:FE18::/32. Maybe 2000::/4 will do, but that might not last very long as an ACL, given the proximty of 2Cxx:: to 2FFF::

Again, just looking for some feedback either way. Would be very nice to have a single line ACL do this job.
