This memo provides a method for protecting a router's control plane
from undesired or malicious traffic.  In this approach, all
legitimate router control plane traffic is identified.  Once
legitimate traffic has been identified, a filter is deployed in the
router's forwarding plane.  That filter prevents traffic not
specifically identified as legitimate from reaching the router's
control plane, or rate limits such traffic to an acceptable level.
