R: not rewriting next-hop, pointing default, ...

For ISPs with a lot of direct (i.e., private) peers, on the public NAP routers you may want to consider not installing the routes from the private peers. This approach could reduce the damage to your private links by default-pointing attack. It may also make you less likely a target due to black-holing of certain traffic. This approach is not applicable if transit service is provided at the public NAP. -- Enke
