Best solution I ever saw to an 'unintended' third-party peering was devised by a pretty brilliant guy (who can pipe up if he's listening). When he discovered traffic loads coming from non-peers he'd drop in an ACL that blocked everything except ICMP - then tell the NOC to route the call to his desk with the third party finally gave up troubleshooting and called in... fun memories of the NAPs... jy On Apr 18, 2009, at 11:35 AM, Nick Hilliard wrote:
