Well no matter which, a packet with that src or dst should *never' originate from the ISP. I haven't heard of anyone routing 127/8 or allowing spoofing of 127/8 addresses. I can only speak for my own company (a middlesized european ISP), and none of our > 1k backbone routers route 127/8 or allow incoming packets with src 127/8 unless its in L2/3 VPN. the 127/8 is reserved for loopback interfaces and should NOT be routed or allowed. Any breach of this should result in complaints to the ISP in question!. > Even the OP didn't mentioned this.
