Sorry, but I'm about 50 mails behind in this thread, so I may repeat
something someone may have suggested, but I'll give it a shot in
case someone hasn't said this.
Might there be a way Cisco (ahem, the router vendor) could add an IP
or MAC based inbound (or outbound) filter on the next hop? If so, I could
maintain a filter that matches my peers. This would not prevent my peers
from pointing default at me, but would prevent non-peers from doing so.
