Question

Block bogus RFC1918 traffic from reaching Internet

I have several RFC1918 subnets on various interfaces of my Fortigate. My Fortigate is advertising info OSPF a default route. This is causing my internal routers to pass up traffic to unused subnets (like 192.168.200.0/24) to the Fortigate. The Fortigate in turn has a default route out the the Internet by way of my provider, and is passing the same traffic upstream there. What is the most efficient (configuration / performance / administrative) way to stop that traffic from crossing the Fortigate? I' m thinking of a blackhole route for 192.168.0.0/16 with a high administrative distance vs a Firewall policy on any > external Ideas?
