Abstract:
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is the protocol used in the internet to
exchange routing information between network domains. This protocol
does not directly include mechanisms that control that routes
exchanged conform to the various rules defined by the Internet
community. This document intends to summarize most common existing
rules and help network administrators applying simply coherent BGP
policies. First it recalls mechanisms that administrators can use to
protect the BGP sessions, with TTL and MD5. Then the document
describes the prefix filters that can be used, how some of them can
be automated, and where they apply in the BGP network. Afterwards,
applicability of other methods including BGP route flap dampening,
limiting maximum prefixes per peering, AS-path filtering and
community scrubbing is analyzed.
