Hi Group,

I've heard that Unicast RPF was most useful when used on a CE router IN
A SINGLE-HOMED ENVIROMENT. I don't really understand how. For me the
URPF should always be successful in this type of environment, as all
subnets not on your internal network will be on one side on the router,
the expected interface for this traffic would always be the external
interface.

So my questions are:

1- Is Unicast RPF useful at all?
2- If yes, is it use to replace these "anti-spoofing" ACL?

This is really not clear for me...

Any comments?

Thanks.

JP
