If some big german ISP route a spoofed packed from a webserver to my home firewall, i REALLY think that they forwards ips like 127.x.x.x... if you don't belive, i can give you rejects for 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 127.x.x.x and so one ;-)
so, DON'T belive that others will do things for you..
I agree, so many ISPs use default routes, and I've seen routing loops caused by this in quite well known ones, after networks have been returned to them. There is also the nasty business of source routes in packets.
I'm counfused. How would one go about routing a packet to 127.0.0.1? Would the router not get its own packet?
It does not route to 127.0.0.1. It routes FROM 127.0.0.1, sometimes. Praise
