Filters

Some networks in Poland which are /32 are divided into a few /33 or /35
and announced under different AS numbers. (there are only a few sTLa so
far like this, but a few more will follow, for example 2001:b10::/33)
This is because we have to implement different routing policy (under
different AS numbers) and RIPE policy don't allow us to get additional /32

So, for us, it would be better to not be filtered (between /32-/35)
:-)

Bart
