VSX, anti spoofing and dynamic routing

[Alex-]

I was checking sk32500 - Anti-spoofing on VSX (static and dynamic) in order to manage anti-spoofing on a VSX which has switched from static to dynamic routing and enforce anti-spoofing.

Steps so far:

• Dynamic routing enabled and working
• Disable "Calculate topology automatically based on routing information" at the VS level
• Edit the relevant interface and select "Internal - Defined by routes" for the topology
• Set the anti-spoofing to Detect for initial verification

But then, sources coming from the interface which match prefixes received by the dynamic routing protocol on that interface are flagged as anti-spoofing with the yellow shield as we are in detection mode.

So if a prefix on interface bond10.20 is learnt as 10.1.1.0/24, we see for instance 10.1.1.1 flagged as spoofed with direction incoming on that interface in the logs.

We are probably missing something, but what? Any tips are welcome.

I suggest doing a kernel debug on the VS to see what the actual reason is for the drop.
TAC may be necessary to investigate this further.

# Step 1: Determine the VSID
vsx stat -v

# Step 2: Allocate Kernel Debug Buffer
fw ctl debug -buf 32768 -v <VSID>

# Step 3: Enable Debug Flags for Anti-Spoofing
fw ctl debug -m fw + drop -v <VSID>

# Step 4: Start Capturing the Debug Output
fw ctl kdebug -T -f -v <VSID> > /var/log/debug.txt

# Step 5: Replicate the Issue
# Perform the actions that trigger the anti-spoofing mechanism

# Step 6: Stop the Debugging
# Press Ctrl+C in the terminal where fw ctl kdebug is running

# Step 7: Analyze the Debug Output
# The debug output will be saved in /var/log/debug.txt

Just to make sure, is there no 10.1.1.0/24 hidden in the anti-spoofing group behind a different interface then bond10.20?

Sometimes I see customers that for example define 10/8 behind interface X and smaller subnet 10.0.0.0/24 behind interface y.

Do you get my point? For now work around is do disable AS and put the network in the option: "Do not check packets from": and add there the group with network. Hope that helps
