[NLNOG] BGP Filter Guide

[Maarten Dammers]

Good initiative Job! I filed some issues and probably have a shot at them later. You're not by chance also considering making a similar kind of guide to packet filter out junk coming from peers? For example quite a bit of traffic originating from RFC1918 IP space on the Ams-ix. More about that on https://www.routingmanifesto.org/manrs/ 

Met vriendelijke groet / With kind regards,

> Dear NLNOGers,
> 
> We recently kickstarted a small effort to create a repository of guidance on
> developing sane BGP filters.
> 
>     http://bgpfilterguide.nlnog.net/guides/
> 
> The goal is to provide a go-to place which will help you develop a
> comprehensive route filtering policy tailored to your specific context.
> 
> The guide is not meant as "blindly copy+paste this", but it should provide you
> with sufficient guidance to help you create your own filters. Afterall, each
> network operates in autonomy and will have their own considerations.
> 
> The filtering guide is in its early stages: there is work to be done to improve
> the readability and internal consistency, and additional topics and aspects
> need to be added.
> 
> If you want to contribute, just submit a pull-request via
> https://github.com/nlnog/bgpfilterguide . The guides themselves are simple
> markdown files as is visible here
> https://github.com/NLNOG/bgpfilterguide/tree/master/guides
> 
> In case you identify an area which is not yet covered by one of the guides
> please consider opening a 'github issue' at
> https://github.com/nlnog/bgpfilterguide/issues so someone else can
> consider writing the guide.
> 
> The entire project is hosted on github and using github's jekyll service for
> publication. So if you clone the repository you have everything it is.
> 
> Please consider contributing in the following areas:
> 
>     - add new guides or extend use cases
>     - readability improvements
>     - open issues on topics that need to be addressed
> 
> I'd like to thank Erik Bais for proposing and contributing to this initiative.
