That kind of ingress filtering protects you against DDoSing yourself,
which maybe the rest of the Internet isn't too bothered about :-)

You ALSO need ACLs on all the crappy consumer routers to stop their DNS
forwarders from being used in an attack. And BCP38. Both of these are not
as common as they should be :-(

You can configure your authoritative servers to be less attrative for use
in DDoS attacks: as well as RRL, configure minimal responses, minimal ANY,
roll to DNSSEC algorithm 13 instead of RSA (all help to keep response
sizes small), and set your UDP size limit to less than one MTU (to reduce
packet count amplification).
