Bogon Addresses

These prefixes are not globally unique prefixes. IETF didn't intend for these to be routed on the public Internet and will not be permitted on the CXC Network.

Bogon ASNs

Private or Reserved ASNs have no place in the public DFZ. Barring these from the DFZ helps improve accountability and dampen accidental exposure of internal routing artifacts and these Private or Reserved ASNs will not be permitted on the CXC Network.
