Re: BCP38 For BGP Customers

Are you taking the stance of "if you don't send us the prefix, then
we don't accept the traffic"?


If you were one of my upstreams, and you implemented that, you would very
quickly no longer be one of my upstreams.

Hello -

I'm are currently working on getting BCP38 filtering in place for our BGP
customers. My current plan is to use the Juniper uRPF feature to filter
out
spoofed traffic based on the routing table. The mentality would be: "If
you
don't send us the prefix, then we don't accept the traffic". This has
raised
some issues amongst our network engineers regarding multi-homed customers.

One of the issues raised was if a multi-homed BGP customer revoked a
prefix from
one of their peerings, but continued sending us traffic on the link then
we
would drop the traffic.

I would like to hear what others are doing for BCP38 deployments for BGP
customers. Are you taking the stance of "if you don't send us the prefix,
then
we don't accept the traffic"? Are you putting in some kind of fall back
filter
in based on something like IRR data?

Thanks!
