Hi, we are a team of researchers from TU Berlin [1] working on a measurement project to assess the ramifications of traffic with spoofed source IP addresses in the Internet. This is a follow-up to the talk I gave in this WG in Madrid. As I got a lot of positive and encouraging feedback after my talk we are continuing this project. To better understand the operational challenges that you as network operators face when deploying (or not deploying) source IP address filtering techniques, we'd like to invite you to participate in our survey. If you could spare 5 minutes of your time, we'd be delighted if you could fill out our survey form and tell us about your current practices regarding network filtering. To participate, please visit: [2] http://filteringsurvey.inet.tu-berlin.de/ If you have any concerns or questions, you can reply on-list or contact us via [3] filtering-survey@inet.tu-berlin.de. We will only publish anonymized results of this study and once we've analyzed your feedback we'll publish a digest of the results on-list if you're interested. As you are probably subscribed to more network operator lists and WG lists you might encounter this mail multiple times. We apologize for cross-posting, but in order to get results that will give us meaningful insights we need the broadest coverage we can get. Thank you very much for your support!
