[c-nsp] Filtering /24s

[Greg Boehnlein]

Hello,
	We are looking at some strategies to reduce the load on our core 
routers by filtering all routes that are /24 or smaller. The number of /24 
routes that have propogated in the recent couple of years seems enormous 
to me, and we are starting to hit the limits of the RSP-2 cards in our 
7500s. Short of chucking the Cisco gear and replacing w/ something that 
can handle a larger table, it seems reasonable to me that we could 
probably reduce the total number of routes significantly if we just 
dropped all the /24s on the floor and let our upstreams handle the routing 
for us.

Am I nuts?
