Hi, Regarding filtering on incoming and outgoing BGP updates, kindly note my opinion on the matter (which differs somewhat from Gert's slides at the ripe42 meeting). He had pasted UUNet UK's rules, but following the current RFC and policies from RIR and 6BONE, this might be more approriate: ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 5 permit 3ffe::/17 ge 24 le 24 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 10 permit 3ffe:8000::/17 ge 28 le 28 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 15 permit 3ffe:4000::/18 ge 32 le 32 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 20 permit 2000::/3 ge 16 le 16 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 25 permit 2001::/16 ge 29 le 35 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 27 permit 2002::/16 ipv6 prefix-list strict seq 30 deny 2000::/3 This might clean up some of the broken elements in the current global routing tables. Regarding the informational aspect, looking at the project I am forming and briefly presented at the ripe42 meeting, perhaps this project can contribute to some form in the RIPE region education of LIRs. Any participation from the ISP and operators level is kindly requested and more information about this project can be found in the presentation slides numbered 3 and up, and the presentation is at: http://www.sixxs.net/presentation/ipv6-ripe42.htm </spam> ;-) groet, Pim -- ---------- - - - - -+- - - - - ---------- Pim van Pelt Email: pim@ipng.nl http://www.ipng.nl/ IPv6 Deployment -----------------------------------------------
