Better yet, do not allow just "anything" else...

I block the RFC1597 "private internets" and 127.0.0.0/8 and 0.0.0.0/8 on
both inbound and outbound filters, in addition to blocking inbound addresses
with my network numbers..  basically they don't survive my routers :-)

I don't have a Cisco manual handy, I do remember that the syntax is a bit
grungy, but very flexible.

Note: IIRC, the CPU on a 2500 is about as fast as a VW bug.  You might be
better off getting a PC, running FreeBSD, and doing a firewall on that  ;-)
You could even dump the 2500 in favor of one of ET's sync serial cards.
