Re: De-bogonising 2a10::/12

Hello, NANOG!

Did someone say, “bogon?”  :)

We want to remind everybody to update their bogon filters and allow routes originating from 2a10::/12 in their 
network.

I'd like to remind people not to bogonise unallocated, more downside
than upside. Particularly if it's CLI jockey network, no one will
update the config once you change your employer. Even if it's
toolised, once that tool breaks, no one will fix it, if there are no
customer complains.

I appreciate the various views on this topic.  If one is going to filter bogons, we strongly recommend that folks BGP 
peer with us for these updates, or use some other, dynamically updated process.  We update our static lists using the 
same underlying process, but that won’t update remotely deployed static copies.

For all prefixes, e.g. 2a10::/12, the filtering will be automagically updated as allocations are made.

Be well,
Rabbi Rob.
