Description
Unrestricted traffic may contain malicious traffic that poses a threat to an enclave or other connected networks. Unrestricted traffic may also transit a network, which uses bandwidth and other resources. Traffic can be restricted directly by an access control list (ACL), which is a firewall function, or by Policy Routing. Policy Routing is a technique used to make routing decisions based on several criteria other than the destination network, including source or destination network, source or destination address, source or destination port, protocol, packet size, and packet classification. This overrides the router's normal routing procedures used to control the specific paths of network traffic. It is normally used for traffic engineering but can also be used to meet security requirements; for example, traffic that is not allowed can be routed to the Null0 or discard interface. Policy Routing can also be used to control which prefixes appear in the routing table. This requirement is intended to allow network administrators the flexibility to use whatever technique is most effective.

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone. Review the router configuration to determine if the router allows only incoming communications from authorized sources to be routed to authorized destinations. Use the command below and verify "Ingress Filter" or "Egress Filter", if needed, are applied: - show filter ip 10 Entry : 10 Description : (Not Specified) Log Id : n/a Src. IP : 172.200.200.2/32 Src. Port : n/a Dest. IP : 172.150.150.2/32 Dest. Port : n/a - show filter ipv6 20 Filter Match Criteria : IPv6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Entry : 10 Description : (Not Specified) Log Id : n/a Src. IP : 2001:acad:1234:200::2/128 Src. Port : n/a Dest. IP : 2001:acad:1234:150::2/128 Dest. Port : n/a If the router does not restrict incoming communications to allow only authorized sources and destinations, this is a finding.

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone. Configure the router to allow only incoming communications from authorized sources to be routed to authorized destinations, as shown in the example below: IPv4 filter: - configure filter ip-filter 10 create - config>filter>ip-filter# entry 10 create - config>filter>ip-filter>entry# match - config>filter>ip-filter>entry>match# dst-ip 172.150.x.x/32 - config>filter>ip-filter>entry>match# src-ip 172.200.x.x/32 - config>filter>ip-filter>entry>match# exit - config>filter>ip-filter>entry# action forward - config>filter>ip-filter>entry# exit all - configure router interface "TO-PE2" ingress filter ip 10 IPv6 filter: - configure filter ipv6-filter 20 create - config>filter>ipv6-filter# entry 10 create - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry# match - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry>match# dst-ip 2001:acad:1234:150::2/128 - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry>match# src-ip 2001:acad:1234:200::2/128 - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry>match# exit - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry# action forward - config>filter>ipv6-filter>entry# exit all - configure router interface "TO-PE2" ingress filter ipv6 20
