    No Good Deed Goes Unrewarded: ColoCrossing Boots the Booters / DDoS

    It's the same thing as reverse path filtering, and no -- it's not much of a knob. Most effective when applied between PE <-> CE topologies, i.e: in the access layer.

    FraudRecord Public Dumps User / Customer Info

    >> Can you imagine retailers denying your business because you returned a thingamob to some other retailer somewhere once? Once, no. But if you repeatedly behave in erratic ways, I would be very interested in learning about that -- and subsequently denying you service to not waste my resources...
