Assessment Title
Rule Text
BGP connections must be restricted to authorized IP addresses of neighbors from trusted Autonomous Systems.
Description
Discussion Text
Advertisement of routes by an autonomous system for networks that do not belong to any of its trusted peers pulls traffic away from the authorized network. This causes DoS on the network that allocated the block of addresses and may cause DoS on the network that is inadvertently advertising it as the originator. It is also possible that a misconfigured or compromised router within the network could re-distribute IGP routes into BGP thereby leaking internal routes.
