I don't know why you wouldn't also filter the Top N providers, since
most of the huge problems have resulted in poor filtering between
large providers.  A small provider can't really have much of an impact
on the net unless their bogus announcements are propagated.  Its the
propagation of bad information which turns it into a worldwide problem.


As to your question.  Try searching for discussion about "access-list 112"
It will be a bit heated, but you'll find a few usefull tidbits in there.
