In an effort to help, I am willing to send you a prefix-list of Xtra's networks.
Sure, that'd be a grand way to start. If anybody else wants to send me their list of prefixes that they're sending to the route servers, then I'll add them to the list of prefixes we announce.
I think you'll need to filter _all_ sessions according to policy published (say) in the RADB before prudent operators trust any of the routes you propagate. Otherwise, people might as well give you access to all their routers and say "here, feel free to change stuff randomly whenever it suits you". The reason that route servers first came into existence was to make it easier to perform aggressive route filtering without each exhange partitipant needing to re-invent the wheel (you know the route servers filter strictly, so you can trust them without filtering and save yourself effort). A route server without an aggressive filtering policy is a much less useful tool. --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
