Step 1: Verify that a prefix list has been configured containing prefixes belonging to the IP core. ip prefix-list FILTER_CORE_PREFIXES seq 5 deny x.1.1.0/24 le 32 ip prefix-list FILTER _CORE_PREFIXES seq 10 deny x.1.2.0/24 le 32 ip prefix-list FILTER _CORE_PREFIXES seq 15 permit 0.0.0.0/0 ge 8 Step 2: Verify that the prefix lists has been applied to all external BGP peers as shown in the example below: router bgp xx no synchronization bgp log-neighbor-changes neighbor x.1.4.12 remote-as yy address-family ipv4 neighbor x.1.4.12 prefix-list FILTER _CORE_PREFIXES out If the router is not configured to reject outbound route advertisements for prefixes belonging to the IP core, this is a finding. |
