Hi, Brian
Check RFC3704/BCP84 Ingress Filtering for Multihomed Networks (Updated
by: RFC8704 Enhanced Feasible-Path uRPF).
Ingress Access Lists require typically manual maintenance, but are
the most bulletproof when done properly; typically, ingress access
lists are best fit between the edge and the ISP when the
configuration is not too dynamic if strict RPF is not an option,
between ISPs if the number of used prefixes is low, or as an
additional layer of protection
Ingress filters Best Practices
https://www.ripe.net/support/training/material/bgp-operations-and-security-training-course/BGP-Slides-Single.pdf
*Don’t accept BOGON ASNs
*Don’t accept BOGON prefixes
*Don’t accept your own prefix
*Don’t accept default (unless you requested it)
*Don’t accept prefixes that are too specific
*Don’t accept if AS Path is too long
*Create filters based on Internet Routing Registries
And also BGP Best Current Practices by Philip Smith
