Subject: Re: multicast test for Eclipse

Am I the only one that blocks administratively scoped multicast group  
addresses at my autonomous system border?

These group addresses are in a portion of the the unassigned  
administratively scoped portion for organization local scope, and as  
such, I don't allow them past the AS boundary. I'm honestly asking  
because my best practice has always been to block administratively  
scoped groups at my administrative boundary?

If this is indeed not the general practice, I will need to re-think my  
multicast deployment plan!
