Well, I do mention it, right there on the home page: """ BCP38 filtering to block these packets is most easily handled right at the very edge of the Internet: where customer links terminate in the first piece of provider 'aggregation' gear, like a router, DSLAM, or CMTS. Much to most of this gear already has a 'knob' which can be turned on, which simply drops these packets on the floor as they come in from the customer's PC. """ I simply didn't *name* the knob, cause the detail seemed out-of-scope for that context. Where it would get named would be on the "information for Audience" pages relevant to access providers, which I have not written because -- not being a provider -- I have insufficient background to be accurate. We welcome contributions from people in those positions... you, perhaps? Be bold! :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
