Hi,

Looking at the BGP table I see stuff like this, not even /64:

2001:218:2000:5000::3a0/126
                    *[BGP/170] 2d 08:02:02, localpref 180
                       AS path: 12714 31133 3491 10026 I, 
validation-state: unverified
                     > to 2a00:d18:fe03:fefe:a76d::1 via ae2.3386

As we can see this wasn't rejected by 3 AS-es.

AFAIK, the minimum allocated space from RIRs is /48. Should we filter 
prefixes longer than this?
