The Cisco Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) switch must be configured to filter source-active multicast advertisements to external MSDP peers to avoid global visibility of local-only multicast sources and groups.

Description
To avoid global visibility of local information, there are a number of source-group (S, G) states in a PIM-SM domain that must not be leaked to another domain, such as multicast sources with private address, administratively scoped multicast addresses, and the auto-RP groups (224.0.1.39 and 224.0.1.40). Allowing a multicast distribution tree, local to the core, to extend beyond its boundary could enable local multicast traffic to leak into other autonomous systems and customer networks.

Who does this work

18 NICE work roles and 10 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-221067r622190_chk)

Review the switch configuration to determine if there is export policy to block local source-active multicast advertisements. Step 1: Verify that an outbound source-active filter is bound to each MSDP peer as shown in the example below: ip msdp peer 10.1.28.8 remote-as 8 ip msdp sa-filter out 10.1.28.8 list OUTBOUND_MSDP_SA_FILTER Step 2: Review the access lists referenced by the source-active filters and verify that MSDP source-active messages being sent to MSDP peers do not leak advertisements that are local. ip access-list extended OUTBOUND_MSDP_SA_FILTER deny ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any permit ip any any If the switch is not configured with an export policy to filter local source-active multicast advertisements, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-22771r408996_fix)

Configure the switch with an export policy avoid global visibility of local multicast (S, G) states. The example below will prevent exporting multicast active sources belonging to the private network. SW1(config)#ip access-list extended OUTBOUND_MSDP_SA_FILTER SW1(config-ext-nacl)#deny ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any SW1(config-ext-nacl)#permit ip any any SW1(config-ext-nacl)#exit SW1(config)#ip msdp sa-filter in x.1.28.2 list OUTBOUND_MSDP_SA_FILTER
