On a router with full routes (ie: no default) the command
is:
Router(config-if)#ip verify unicast source reachable-via any
Go ahead and try it out. you can view the resulting
drop counter via the 'show ip int <x/y>' command.
While you're at it, you also placed the reachable-via rx on
all your customer interfaces. If you're paranoid, start with the 'any'
rpf and then move to the strict rpf. The strict rpf also helps with
routing loops.
