N has a valid signed path that ends in AS X, signed by AS X. (We're presuming the don't-include-neighbor-id-in-signature approach.) AS N adds itself to the path and signs that. All signatures check. >Also note that protecting against abuse by AS N (for instance, AS N >claims to have the bast path to a destination that AS X really has the >best path to) on the basis that AS N isn't a neighbor of AS X is too >weak as it is not extremely unlikely ASes X and N peer. "not extremely unlikely" == "likely"? Why? Think of the AS 7007 situation, where AS 7007 reduced every AS path it got to nothing and sent out updates with an AS path of only "AS 7007". Presume instead that it truncated the AS path down to some small subsequence, say, the originating AS on the list. Then it makes a new update, with the AS path = (originatingAS, AS 7007). AS 7007 is not a neighbor of "originatingAS" for the most part, so this is a bogus AS path. But signature checking won't catch this unless each AS includes its AS neighbor in what is signed. BBN has a way of describing this - they say that the updates and signatures mean "I am authorizing my neighbor AS Q to announce a route through me". --Sandy _______________________________________________ RPSEC mailing list RPSEC@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rpsec
