Details
Check Text (C-207099r604135_chk)
Review the router configuration to verify that it will reject routes belonging to the local AS.
The prefix filter must be referenced inbound on the appropriate BGP neighbor statements.
If the router is not configured to reject inbound route advertisements belonging to the local AS, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-7360r382143_fix)
Ensure all eBGP routers are configured to reject inbound route advertisements for any prefixes belonging to the local AS.
