Rob,
- Are you saying that some AMPRNet OPs simply forward packets to their
WAN interface...WITH INVALID SRC IPs from their 44.0.0.0/8 RANGE?!?!
Can someone share a configuration with me where this actually works!
I've always understood it to be - at minimum - a poor configuration, and
- at most - an invalid configuration, to use Public IP space not
assigned to the interface in use.
- How does the traffic return?
- If it's via a tunnel, why are they dropping the packets on the WAN
interface, without the proper WAN IP address, couldn't they just
properly configure an IPENCAP tunnel?

internet directly."
