Thomas,

The fuzzbugs do not currently perform a sanity check on IP net numbers
appearing in EGPspeak or hellospeak messages; however, they do sport
a martian filter that tosses packets with unsane IP addresses should
they appear. You make a good point that the martian filter should
also be expressed in a sanity check for routing data as well.

Today the situation I complained about last Sunday happened again,
with nets 207-something figuring very prominently in the noise. I tried
to catch a MILNET gateway in the act, but without success before the
wickedness evaporated from the core tables.
