Zhaoquan Cai · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2008
By analyzing the loopholes and weakness in the current version of Border Gateway Protocol(BGP) and noting the potential attacksbased on TCP, this paper gives the BGP security threat model and the corresponding preventive strategy, and explains how to extend the functions ofthe protocol. As an example, a typical security precaution setup of the CISCO routing is illustrated. Practice proves that, network security andstability can be effectively improved through access control lists, digital signature, routing filtering, source address detection and protocol extendedfunction.
