Cisco Configuration Blueprint – Single-Homed CE Device with EBGP

Introduction

In this example, we will show recommended configuration for a Single-homed Single CE device using private AS with an upstream ISP. It is assumed that management of this device will be performed from a dedicated server residing within Customer’s Network.

This type of setup is quite common in an environment where a dedicated firewall performing source NAT function is setup to protect customer infrastructure.

Please note, that the Management Station is connected directly to the LAN interface for illustration purpose only. In real production deployments, Management Station must be protected by a firewall.

BGP Configuration

BGP configuration can be split in the following tasks:

  • Accept the default route from the ISP while discarding all other advertisements that might be sent to your CE
  • Advertise your subnet (120.0.50.0/24) while making sure that no other routers are erroneously injected
  • Secure BGP session by configuring a MD5 key

The actual configuration is comprised of the following blocks:

  1. Configure Two prefix lists – one with the subnet you’ll advertise upstream and the other one with the default route you’ll be receiving from your ISP:
ip prefix-list default-only seq 10 permit 0.0.0.0/0

ip prefix-list originated-out seq 10 permit 120.0.50.0/24

 

  1. Configure BGP session with prefix-filtering and MD5 session protection
router bgp 111100

 bgp log-neighbor-changes

 network 120.0.50.0 mask 255.255.255.0

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 remote-as 100

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 description PE2

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 password 7 14141B180F0B

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 soft-reconfiguration inbound

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 prefix-list default-only in

 neighbor 120.0.4.17 prefix-list originated-out out

!

Securing the Router

Next step is to secure the router itself. But default, it will pass any traffic (with some exceptions, not covered in this article) and accept connections from anywhere on the Internet. Your job is to make sure that only trusted sources can communicate with your device (control plane protection) and spoofed traffic is not allowed in and out of your network (data plane protection).

Data Plane Protection

  1. Configure access-list to block spoofed traffic originated on the Internet:
ip access-list extended martians

 deny   ip host 255.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 0.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 127.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 172.16.0.0 0.15.255.255 any

 deny   ip 192.168.0.0 0.0.255.255 any

 deny   ip 192.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 198.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 203.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any

 deny   ip 100.64.0.0 0.0.63.255 any

! ßLocal Traffic, should not be arriving from the Internet à 

 deny   ip 120.0.50.0 0.0.0.255 any

 permit ip any any
  1. Configure interface with security commands and uRPF on the LAN interface. Note that ‘no ip unreachables’ will block traceroute.

IPv4 Bogons

Introduction

BGP Best Practice Recommendation documented in RFC 7454 and discussed in “BGP Best Practices or Dissecting RFC 7454” article mandates the use of inbound prefix-list filtering to discard bogus route-advertisements to and from BGP peers. It is strongly recommended that you implement aforementioned filtering if you accept the full or partial BGP view from your peers.

You do not need to maintain inbound bogus route filtering if the only route you are planning to accept from your service providers is the default 0.0.0.0/0 prefix. In this scenario, you should configure an explicit prefix-filter permitting 0.0.0.0/0 route and rejecting all other advertisements.

Bogons, Martians, Bogus Advertisements

Over the years, networking professions have used various terms to refer to the same thing. These “bad” advertisements might be referred to as Bogons, Martian Lists, Bogus Advertisements, etc.

The current list is comprised of IP Blocks that are used for some kind of special use, such as RFC1918 space, Loopback block, etc. Sometime ago this list also included valid IPv4 prefixes that have not been allocated by The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). IPv4 Space Exhaustion put stop to this. For the majority of ISPs and Enterprises, it is no longer feasible to include remaining unallocated blocks to the Bogons least, as this IPv4 space is small and constantly changing. The situation is very different when it comes to IPv6 space, and it will be discussed in IPv6 Martians article.

Importance of Bogons

The main reason for filtering-out Bogon advertisements is the Internet security. Bad things might begin to happen if you allow Bogon blocks to be accepted into your BGP domain. Let’s consider a few scenarios where hackers were able to advertise RFC1918 block to your network.

  • Firewall filters might consider RFC1918 blocks “trusted” space and permit dataflows that otherwise would be rejected
  • Spammers might send out email messages from servers in RFC1918 space, making it nearly impossible to track them back
  • Similar to Spam, DDoS Attacks from RFC1918 space are impossible to track
  • Your network might attract large volume of bogus traffic destined to RFC1918 space, such as portscans, vulnerability scans, etc

Juniper Configuration Blueprint – Single-Homed CE Device with EBGP

Introduction

In this example, we will show recommended configuration for a Single-homed Single CE device using private AS with an upstream ISP. It is assumed that management of this device will be performed from a dedicated server residing within Customer’s Network.

This type of setup is quite common in an environment where a dedicated firewall performing source NAT function is setup to protect customer infrastructure.

Single-homed CE Device with EBGP.

Please note, that the Management Station is connected directly to the LAN interface for illustration purpose only. In real production deployments it must be protected by a firewall.

BGP Configuration

BGP configuration can be split in the following tasks:

  • Accept the default route from the ISP while discarding all other advertisements that might be sent to your CE
  • Advertise your subnet (120.0.30.0/24) while making sure that no other routers are erroneously injected
  • Secure BGP session by configuring a MD5 key

 

The actual configuration is comprised of the following blocks:

  1. Configure Local AS Number:
set routing-options autonomous-system 65001 
  1. Configure Two prefix lists – one with the subnet you’ll advertise upstream and the other one with the default route you’ll be receiving from your ISP:
set policy-options prefix-list LocallyOriginated 120.0.30.0/24

set policy-options prefix-list Default 0.0.0.0/0
  1. Create Policy Statements for the locally originated and default route:
set policy-options policy-statement Direct-To-BGP term 10 from protocol direct

set policy-options policy-statement Direct-To-BGP term 10 from prefix-list LocallyOriginated

set policy-options policy-statement Direct-To-BGP term 10 then accept

set policy-options policy-statement Direct-To-BGP term 999 then reject

set policy-options policy-statement Default term 10 from prefix-list Default

set policy-options policy-statement Default term 10 then accept

set policy-options policy-statement Default term 999 then reject
  1. Configure BGP Group for your Upstream ISP. Configure the “export” statement to advertise your 120.0.30.0/24 subnet to the Internet and “import” statement to receive the default route. Configure MD5 Authentication Key. Make sure the description field includes the Circuit ID assigned to your link and ISP’s contact phone so you would not need to search for this information in an event of an outage.

set protocols bgp group ISP-AS100 type external

set protocols bgp group ISP-AS100 neighbor 120.0.4.9 description "ISP FastAccess: Circuit GD8AJ12B: ISP NOC 800-111-2222"

Securing the Router

Next step is to secure the router itself. But default, it will pass any traffic (with some exceptions, not covered in this article) and accept connections from anywhere on the Internet. Your job is to make sure that only trusted sources can communicate with your device (control plane protection) and spoofed traffic is not allowed in and out of your network (data plane protection).

Data Plane Protection

We’ll start with the data plane, where we need to take care of packets leaving your network and packets coming in.

In our example, we were assigned a single IP subnet to be used within our network – 120.0.30.0/24. As such, we should only allow traffic originated from this network as well our ISP-facing WAN interface to go out. There are a few ways to achieve this goal – configure uRFP on LAN interface, inbound firewall filter on LAN, or outbound filter on WAN. We’ll use the latter approach by setting up outbound WAN filter:

set firewall family inet filter accept-local term 10 from source-address 120.0.30.0/24

set firewall family inet filter accept-local term 10 then accept

set firewall family inet filter accept-local term 20 from source-address 120.0.4.10/32

set firewall family inet filter accept-local term 20 then accept

set firewall family inet filter discard-any term 10 then discard

set interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet filter output-list accept-local

set interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet filter output-list discard-any

We also need to make sure that the traffic coming from the Internet has a valid source IP. As we do not receive the full BGP feed from our upstream provider and cannot rely on uRPF, we will need to configure static filter that will discard all known “bad” sources also known as Martian blocks, while allowing all other traffic in:

Control Plane Protection

While it is important to discard malicious traffic that tries to pass through your router, it is even more important to drop bad packets destined to your infrastructure device. All router-bound traffic must be dropped unless it comes from a known and trusted source. In our example, we can trust ISP’s PE router as we’ll be establishing EBGP session with that device and dedicated server (120.0.30.10) used for device management. We will also allow Ping and Traceroute packets. Everything else will be dropped.
