Which of the following are steps to configure destination-based Remote Triggered Black Hole (RTBH) filtering? (Choose three.)

The correct answer is A. Configure BGP between trigger and black hole routers. C. Configure all edge routers with static (reserved) host route to Null0 E. Activate black hole by redistributing route for victim into BGP with next-hop set to the static (reserved) hostroute co.

Explanation

The three steps in destination-based black hole filtering are summarized below. Step 1. The setup (preparation) A trigger is a special device that is installed at the NOC exclusively for the purpose of triggering a The trigger must have an iBGP peering relationship with all the edge routers, or, if using route reflectors, it must have an iBGP relationship with the route reflectors in every cluster. The trigger is also configured to redistribute static routes to its iBGP peers. It sends the static route by means of an iBGP routing update. Step 2. The trigger An administrator adds a static route to the trigger, which redistributes the route by sending a BGP update to all its iBGP peers, setting the next hop to the target destination address under attack as 192.0.2.1 in the current example. The PEs receive their iBGP update and set their next hop to the target to the unused IP address space 192.0.2.1. The route to this address is set to null0 in the PE, using a static routing entry in the router configuration. The next hop entry in the forwarding information base (FIB) for the destination IP (target) is now updated to null0. All traffic to the target will now be forwarded to Null0 at the edge and dropped. Step 3. The withdrawal Once the trigger is in place, all traffic to the target destination is dropped at the PEs. When the threat no longer exists, the administrator must manually remove the static route from the trigger, which sends a BGP route withdrawal to its iBGP peers. This prompts the edge routers to remove the existing route for the target that ispointed to 192.0.2.1 and to install a new route based on the IGP routing information base (RIB).
