This "RFC1918 for control plane/management plane" technique is
vulnerable to a TCP reflection attack. The miscreants know about it. So
the assumption that the chance of a RFC 1918 packet reaching your router
being "zero" is not something an you should assume.

Walk through the code with the current MD5 spec. You need to terminate
the TCP session, check the MD5, then do the next checks. That is why
we're doing TTL check for GTSM and other classifying/queuing before the
TCP session termination. In the big equipment that ranges from

At the same time, you are not going to find the SP core swapping out
their equipment for hardware with crypto chips. SPs do not seem to want
to pay for this sort of addition. So even new equipment is not getting
hardware crypto that can be used.
So a BGP IPSEC option has to work with what hardw

There is no push from the operators to look at AH check or t
