We have been pushing large configurations to devices. You can check my slides from the London IEPG meeting. 

When 96% of your config is prefix filters we are sure trying.

I ask others to encourage your vendors to make this a priority as we have faced a number of issues in this area and 
have been waiting quite some time for vendor resolution.

I was thinking that when I posted yesterday.

These were announcements from a peer, not customer routes.

We are lowering our max prefix limits on many peers as a result of this.

We are also going towards more prefix filtering on peers beyond bogons
and martians.
Hi Mike,

You're not mentioning RPKI here. Any particular reason why not?

If I understand correctly, in today's leak the origin AS was
changed/reset, so RPKI ought to have saved the day. (At least Grzegorz'
day, considering that 33 of AS43996's prefixes are covered by ROAs.)

Yes, we will incorporate RPKI into how we build our prefix filters for peers as we improve our tools.

Currently this will involve some amount of prefix list compression due to the limits of current hardware and the need 
to still have BGP converge.

As Job Snijders said, "I would forsee issues if i'd try to add an eleven megabyte prefix-list on all devices in the 
network.".

Mike.
