[c-nsp] How to filter private AS from inbound BGP updates?

Hi all,

I want to discard inbound BGP updates from our upstreams if there is any 
private AS (64512 - 65535) in the update.

What is the best way to achieve this? Here is my suggestion:

ip as-path access-list 1 permit 6451[2-9]
ip as-path access-list 1 permit 645[2-9][0-9]
ip as-path access-list 1 permit 64[6-9][0-9][0-9]
ip as-path access-list 1 permit 65[0-4][0-9][0-9]
ip as-path access-list 1 permit 655[0-2][0-9]
ip as-path access-list 1 permit 6553[0-5]

router bgp 1
 neighbor 1.1.1.1 remote-as 1
 neighbor 1.1.1.1 route-map filter-private-as in

route-map filter-private-as deny 10
 match as-path 1

Is that correct or does anybody has a better idea?

I know that 'neighbor 1 remove-private-AS' would filter private AS from 
outbound BGP updates and that the other side could use this statement - but 
apparently my upstreams don't!

Thank you


Wolfgang
