Hi Rob, those objects look useful to me. The only thing that frightens me is one person (you) updating an object and the whole world promptly update their filters accordingly. Any security plan against typos? Regards Karsten

Hi, Karsten.
] I think, having the bogon list as route-set in any of the IRR ] databases, say whois.radb.net would be very helpful to process ] this list with peval.
Funny you should mention that! :D The fine folks at Merit donated a maintainer object, MAINT-BOGON-FILTERS, to me for this very purpose. I have created three filter-sets that are in BETA status until I have a few more folks review them. They are:
fltr-unallocated - The unallocated (by IANA) IPv4 prefixes. fltr-martian - The special use and reserved IPv4 prefixes. fltr-bogons - fltr-unallocated + fltr-martian.
These filter-sets will be updated as regularly and as quickly as my other bogon monitoring and templates. I will PGP sign them so that folks can verify the updates (my key is available on my web site and on the MIT key server). Please take a look and let me know what you think. Feedback and suggestions are very welcome!
Thanks! Rob. -- Rob Thomas http://www.cymru.com ASSERT(coffee != empty);
