    Group
  • The Arista router must be configured to have Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) mask replies disabled on all external interfaces.

    The ICMP supports IP traffic by relaying information about paths, routes, and network conditions. Routers automatically send ICMP messages under a wide variety of conditions. Mask Reply ICMP messag...

  • SRG-NET-000362-RTR-000117

    Group
  • The Arista BGP router must be configured to use the maximum prefixes feature to protect against route table flooding and prefix de-aggregation attacks.

    The effects of prefix de-aggregation can degrade router performance due to the size of routing tables and also result in black-holing legitimate traffic. Initiated by an attacker or a misconfigured...

    Group
  • The multicast Rendezvous Point (RP) Arista router must be configured to limit the multicast forwarding cache so that its resources are not saturated by managing an overwhelming number of Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) and Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) source-active entries.

    MSDP peering between networks enables sharing of multicast source information. Enclaves with an existing multicast topology using PIM-SM can configure their RP routers to peer with MSDP routers. As...
