Well, unless we change the scope.

Let’s do 1918 and other "well known" bad source addresses. We can worry about "unassigned space" later.

How's that sound?

>>> I’m assuming RFC1918 IPs as the source, correct? Regardless of source or destination address I’m good with it. We shouldn’t be leaking that junk, if we are something is broken, and I don’t expect Internet2 or the greater community to deal with our failures. A publicly viewable counter on the firewall filter term could be useful; I could make one of our junior network team check the I2 counter every month to verify we don’t have an internal issue. I’d be fine if that instrumentation wasn’t added until later if I2 staff would like to move quickly on deploying filters but also want to gather more input from the community on exposing FW filter counters in this manner.
