&lt;p class="std-text">With &lt;a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6480" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">RPKI&lt;/a> adoption for leased prefixes surging from 29.9% in 2021 to 71.0% by late 2024, validating &lt;strong>blackhole routes&lt;/strong> remains dangerously ambiguous. Blindly propagating these filters across all points of view often collapses complex routing topologies into a single, erroneous perspective that the source ASN never authorized.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Blackhole route checks: Stop accidental outages</title><link>https://wirez.top/posts/blackhole-route-checks-stop-accidental-outages/</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://wirez.top/posts/blackhole-route-checks-stop-accidental-outages/</guid><description>&lt;meta charset="utf-8">

&lt;p class="std-text">With the SDN market projected to grow over 4x in the next decade, automating &lt;strong>blackhole route&lt;/strong> validation is no longer optional. Reliance on legacy Internet Routing Registry (IRR) data creates critical vulnerabilities where unauthorized traffic suppression can cascade across networks due to blind acceptance of unverified path requests.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
