No filters. There are just no routes that will take a network packet that

Therefore there is no way you from the internet or from a customer link can
even attempt to inject packets that would be received by the OSPF process.
Since we use 10.0.0.0/8 and our vrf internet has no such route, you would
just get no route to host if you tried.

Good for you.

We don't run the whole "Internet in a VRF" architecture (too many moving parts), so not having our IGP being exposed to IP helps :-).

Internet in a VRF just works and it is not at all complicated. I will recommend it for anyone which has the equipment that can do it. I do realise that not everyone can do this however.

I have not studied OSPFv3 in detail but it appears that only IPv6 link local addresses are used. Since that can not be routed, I do not think OSPFv3 exposes anything to the Internet. I would probably go with OSPFv3 if I had to configure a network without VRF support.

If I was coding an OSPFv3 daemon I would make it bind only to link local addresses on interfaces, which will guarantee that no traffic is received from outsiders.
