I'd try injecting a bogus route to some reserved address (netblock). Perhaps the infamous "link local" 169.254.0.0/16? People using reserved addresses who might be harmed by such a test deserve to lose anyway. The bad news is that routers might ignore routes to reserved/invalid address even if they accept routes to ordinary addresses. --Pavel Kankovsky aka Peak [ Boycott Microsoft--http://www.vcnet.com/bms ] "Resistance is futile.
