This seems operationally very important.

Subject: [members-discuss] JUNOS and 128.0.0.0 martian (JFYI)

Hello!


Recently RIPE NCC started to allocate addresses from 128/8 to end users, 
example:

https://apps.db.ripe.net/whois/lookup/ripe/inetnum/128.0.0.0-128.0.7.255.html


JunOS software (upto and including 11.1 version) blocks those addresses 
by default as martians:

 > show route martians
inet.0:
               0.0.0.0/0 exact -- allowed
               0.0.0.0/8 orlonger -- disallowed
               127.0.0.0/8 orlonger -- disallowed
               128.0.0.0/16 orlonger -- disallowed



In fact there will be no connectivity for newly allocates addresses and
Juniper routers all around the world unless people change default
behavior or juniper changes default settings for martians.


We've opened JTAC case about it.



P.S.
In order to fix it you should implement
set routing-options martians 128.0.0.0/16 orlonger allow
on your juniper routers.
