The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the protocol almost exclusively used in 
the Internet to exchange routing information between network domains.  Due to 
this central nature, it is important to understand the security measures that 
can and should be deployed to prevent accidental or intentional routing 
disturbances.

This document describes measures to protect the BGP sessions itself such as 
Time to Live (TTL), the TCP Authentication Option (TCP-AO), and control-plane 
filtering.  It also describes measures to better control the flow of routing 
information, using prefix filtering and automation of prefix filters, 
max-prefix filtering, Autonomous System
(AS) path filtering, route flap dampening, and BGP community scrubbing.

This document is a product of the Operational Security Capabilities for IP 
Network Infrastructure Working Group of the IETF.


BCP: This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the 
Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
