[bogon-announce] IANA IPv4 allocations and bogon updates: 83/8 and 84/8

[Rob Thomas]

Hi, team.

This note was originally sent on 17 NOV 2003.  Due to some list
configuration issues, it did not reach this list.  While I am sure
most of you saw our copious posts in other forums, we want to be
certain you've heard the word.  I apologize for the list issues
and tardy notice.  Please note that all referenced templates were
updated on 15 NOV 2003.

The numerous Team Cymru bogon projects have been updated to reflect the
following IANA allocations on November 15, 2003:

83/8   Nov 03   RIPE NCC
84/8   Nov 03   RIPE NCC

IANA allocations change over time, so please check regularly to ensure
you have the latest filters if you are not using the bogon BGP feed(s).
We do announce updates to the bogon projects to the FIRST community, as
well as on lists such as NANOG, isp-routing, isp-security, isp-bgp,
cisco-nsp, and bogon-announce.  We can not stress this point strongly
enough - these allocations change. If you do not adjust your filters,
you will be unable to access perhaps large portions of the Internet.
Worse yet, you may end up blocking access for people who transit through
you.

Please do not blindly apply any filters or blocks to your network
without carefully considering the ramifications of doing so.

As a point of reference, the master Bogon Reference Page can be found
here:
