to date, occaidv6 does not run with strict uRPF on ipv6 networking. and we
do not plan to implement strict uRPF since it breaks 95% of all downstream
networks.
the only router that has uRPF enabled is cr1.sjc1 in san jose where we have
global crossing transit dropping in. and that is LOOSE uRPF, not strict.
so it doesn't drop packets unless sourced from a route that doesn't exist
at all in DFZ, or the route is blackholed.
plz to note the LRPF_INET6 flag, thank you.

but then again, since occaid has layer 10 problems, i am not credible.
oh well, NANOG friends used to say "its just IRC" ;-) or was it that
TCAM is for layer 2 mac addresses? last i recall there was difference
between binary CAM and ternary CAM but anyways.. good night folks
