Security design for MPLS to protect against the Service Provider (using BGP)

Hello all,

I was hoping I might find some help regarding wrapping appropriate security around an MPLS network design (beyond a IPSEC tunnel between sites), to protect against the Service Provider. e.g. What can I do to most effiencently keep them [the SP] from being a potential attack vector, outside of VPN, more in the sense of edge security with them? - ACLs, route filtering, or what have you to ensure they can't access or traverse our network from their side (PE) - including some examples would be fantastic.

Items to Note:

  • BGP is being used between us & the SP
  • Each site has its own ASN
  • Using /30 networks between us & the SP (is it better to do a different way?)
  • Largely, IOS 15.x will be used.


Any input would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Here is a pretty good document on how to secure your infrastructure:
