The IP Router Alert Option is an IP option that alerts transit
routers to more closely examine the contents of an IP packet. RSVP,
PGM and IGMP are some of the protocols which make use of the IP
Router Alert option. This document discusses security aspects and
common practices around the use of router alert and discusses
consequences on the use of router alert by existing or new
applications. Common practices in router alert implementation
facilitating router protection are also discussed. Finally a
possible enhancement to the current specification of Router Alert is
presented for feedback.
