A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : An Exceptions Capability for Distributed Null-Routing in BGP Authors : Cameron C. Gray Sa'ad P. Mansoor Filename : draft-cgray-ietf-bgpexceptions-00.txt Pages : 9 Date : 2015-07-26 Abstract: There is not currently any standardized method of dealing with distributed or other large scale threats other than individual firewall and/or null routing instructions. This Internet Draft describes an optional BGP Capability (as defined by RFC 5492) that allowed Autonomous Systems to self-censor utilizing the existing Inter-Domain Routing system. This capability does not add any automatic actions and must be explicitly activated by an administrator.
