Fix Recommendation

Configure all eBGP routers to reject inbound route advertisements from a CE router for prefixes that are not allocated to that customer using the example below:

Create a prefix list:

- configure router policy-options
- config>router>policy-options# begin
- config>router>policy-options# prefix-list "Customer Prefix"
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list$ prefix 192.168.100.0/24 prefix-length-range 24-32
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list# exit

Create a policy statement:

- config>router>policy-options# policy-statement "Import Customer Prefix"
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ entry 10
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ from prefix-list "Customer Prefix"
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ action accept
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry>action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ default-action drop
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>default-action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ exit
- config>router>policy-options# commit
- config>router>policy-options# exit all

Apply the import policy to the BGP group:

- configure router bgp group "eBGP" import "Import Customer Prefix"

Check Contents

Review the BGP router configuration to verify routing policies are defined to only accept routes for prefixes that belong to each specific customer.

Verify the prefix-list, policy-statement, and import policy are applied to the eBGP group using the commands below:

- show router policy prefix-list "Customer Prefix"

prefix 192.168.100.0/24 prefix-length-range 24-32

- show router policy "Import Customer Prefix"

entry 10
from
prefix-list "Customer Prefix"
exit
action accept
exit
exit
default-action drop
exit

- show router bgp group "eBGP" detail | match "Import Policy"

Import Policy : Import Customer Prefix

If the router is not configured to reject inbound route advertisements from each CE router for prefixes that are not allocated to that customer, this is a finding.
