The term Back Route Verify describes a very simple but powerful function. If a check is ac-
tivated for an interface, incoming data packets are only accepted over this interface if out-
going response packets are routed over the same interface. You can therefore prevent the
acceptance of packets with false IP addresses - even without using filters.
