Network Operators and Service Providers should ensure that routing controls are implemented and managed to prevent adverse routing conditions.

Status: Rollover New

References/Comments: Adverse routing conditions may include such things as infinite looping and flooding of datagrams across data networks. Controls should be implemented across network boundaries to limit the frequency of route advertisements and prevent routing of reserved or private address space. Controls should also prevent unauthorized advertisements of other operators' address space that is not legitimately allocated or assigned to the proper entity. For example, see those addressed in RFC 1918 - http://www.rfc- editor.org/info/rfc1918. Note: This Best practice could impact 9-1-1 operations.
