Since the Internet uses destination-based packet forwarding, maliciousattacks have been launched using spoofed source addresses. In aneffort to enhance the Internet with IP source address validation, weprototyped an implementation of the IP Source Address ValidationArchitecture (SAVA) and conducted the evaluation on an IPv6 network.This document reports our prototype implementation and the testresults, as well as the lessons and insights gained from ourexperimentation.
