Discussion

If the gateway router is not a dedicated device for the OOBM network, several safeguards must be implemented for containment of management and production traffic boundaries; otherwise, it is possible that management traffic will not be separated from production traffic. Since the managed network and the management network are separate routing domains, separate Interior Gateway Protocol routing instances must be configured on the router, one for the managed network and one for the OOBM network. In addition, the routes from the two domains must not be redistributed to each other.

Check Content

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone.

Verify the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the managed network does not redistribute routes into the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the management network, and vice versa.

Juniper routers use export policies to limit redistribution of routes. Verify a policy exists to filter route redistribution. Juniper policy-statements support terms, which provides greater granularity within a single policy. 

[edit policy-options]
policy-statement deny-mgt-redist {
    term 1 {
        from protocol static;
        then reject;
    }
    term 2 { 
        from {
            protocol ospf;
            route-filter <IPv4 subnet>/<mask> orlonger;
            route-filter <IPv6 subnet>/<prefix> orlonger;
        }
        then reject;
    }
    <additional terms permitting authorized routes for redistribution>
}
policy-statement deny-managed-routes {
    term 1 {
        from {
            route-filter <IPv4 subnet>/<mask> orlonger;
            route-filter <IPv6 subnet>/<prefix> orlonger;
        }
        then accept;
    }
    term 2 {
        then reject;
    }
}

Verify an export policy is applied to the IGP protocol for each routing instance (default and OOBM).
[edit protocols]
    ospf {
        area <area number> {
            interface <NOT OOBM interface>.<logical unit>;
        }
        export deny-mgt-redist;
    }
    ospf3 {
        area <area number> {
            interface <NOT OOBM interface>.<logical unit>;
        }
        export deny-mgt-redist;
    }
}
[edit routing-instances]
OOBM {
    instance-type virtual-router;
    protocols {
        ospf {
            area <area number> {
                interface <OOBM interface>.<logical unit>;
            }
            export deny-managed-routes;
        }
        ospf3 {
            area <area number> {
                interface <OOBM interface>.<logical unit>;
            }
            export deny-managed-routes;
        }
    }
}

If the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the managed network redistributes routes into the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the management network, or vice versa, this is a finding.

Fix Text

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone.

Configure the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the managed network to prohibit redistribution of routes into the Interior Gateway Protocol instance used for the management network, and vice versa.
