1. I suggest you read http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6192 for some ideas.

2. To fix the issue, you must implement QoS site-wide: you must priorize the
control-plane traffic (i.e. OSPF, BGP, etc) from known-good sources, and
depriorize (maybe even drop) control-plane traffic from any unknown sources
on all border routers (including access routers), as well as any traffic
that should not be in the control-plane traffic class.

Use the highest priority class for control-plane traffic.
