CISC-RT-000490 - The Cisco BGP router must be configured to reject inbound route advertisements for any Bogon prefixes - show ip prefix-list
Information
Accepting route advertisements for Bogon prefixes can result in the local autonomous system (AS) becoming a transit for malicious traffic as it will in turn advertise these prefixes to neighbor autonomous systems.Solution
Configure the router to reject inbound route advertisements for any Bogon prefixes.Step 1: Configure a prefix list containing the current Bogon prefixes as shown below.
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 0.0.0.0/8 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 10.0.0.0/8 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 100.64.0.0/10 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 127.0.0.0/8 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 169.254.0.0/16 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 172.16.0.0/12 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 192.0.2.0/24 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 192.88.99.0/24 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 192.168.0.0/16 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 198.18.0.0/15 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 198.51.100.0/24 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 203.0.113.0/24 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 224.0.0.0/4 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 240.0.0.0/4 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER deny 240.0.0.0/4 le 32
R1(config)#ip prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER permit 0.0.0.0/0 ge 8
Step 2: Apply the prefix list filter inbound to each external BGP neighbor as shown in the example.
R1(config)#router bgp xx
R1(config-router)#neighbor x.1.1.9 prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER in
R1(config-router)#neighbor x.2.1.7 prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER in
Route Map Alternative
Step 1: Configure the route map referencing the configured prefix list above.
R1(config)#route-map FILTER_PREFIX_MAP 10
R1(config-route-map)#match ip address prefix-list PREFIX_FILTER
R1(config-route-map)#exit
Step 2: Apply the route-map inbound to each external BGP neighbor as shown in the example.
R1(config)#router bgp xx
R1(config-router)#neighbor x.1.1.9 route-map FILTER_PREFIX_MAP in
R1(config-router)#neighbor x.2.1.7 route-map FILTER_PREFIX_MAP in
R1(config-router)#end
