Which is a good thing, as every new PI /48 advertised to the DFZ will bloat the routing tables of thousands upon thousands of routers world wide. It might solve the Netflix problem, but what has actually happened is that you've split the original problem into a thousand small bits and thrown one piece into each of your neighbours' gardens. I'd encourage everyone to try to fix their Netflix problem a more proper way before deciding to litter everyone else's routing tables with another PI prefix. Blocking access to Netflix via the tunnel seems like an obvious solution to me, for what it's worth. I wonder if anyone has attempted to estimate approx. how much RIB/FIB space a single DFZ route requires in total across the entire internet... Tore
