Implementation of MANRS Actions

  • Action 1: Prevent propagation of incorrect routing information Our peering policy is documented here: https://www.azion.com/en/docs/products/peering/
  • Action 2: Prevent traffic with spoofed source IP addresses Today we use two IRR databases to perform this task (RADB and TC), in addition to an internal tool to audit VM and VPS servers
  • Action 3: Facilitate global operational communication and coordination We keep our information always up to date on PeeringDB and the RADB and TC IRRs.Please see: https://www.peeringdb.com/net/14511
  • Action 4: Facilitate validation of routing information on a global scale We have a selective peering policy and the cases will be evaluated one by one
  • Action 5: Encourage MANRS adoption We will provide incentives for our partners and peers to know the program - Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) through the URL: https://www.manrs.org/Promotion of lectures, courses and training, and production of didactic materials, such as booklets, articles on websites and videos, internally aiming to disseminate good practices regarding the administration of networks and configurations, as well as in the management of security incidents.Interaction with Provider Associations and Cloud Partners and their affiliates to disseminate the safety culture, adopt best practices and mitigate existing problems by specifying, configuring and operating CPEs in their respective networks and implementing basic actions to improve Routing Security, recommended by MANRS.

Why Azion Technologies Supports MANRS

The Internet is humanity's greatest collective work! For Azion that is part of this ecosystem, of this collective work and ensuring that Internet traffic is routed reliably worldwide is an essential element for a reliable global Internet. Based on common network operating practices currently in effect, the global Internet routing system does not have sufficient security controls to prevent the injection of false routing information. The lack of these controls creates a significant vulnerability, which can result in thousands of traffic incidents. The MANRS initiative, promoted by the Internet Society, overcomes this collective problem by establishing a security baseline with concrete actions for network operators. The actions are supported by a growing community of more than 200 networks worldwide. Currently, there are more than 7,000 autonomous systems in Brazil, country of Azion's origin, with only 33 of these autonomous systems participating in MANRS. The idea is to expand the number of companies involved so that, together, they can work to make the Internet a safe environment. This is Azion's main objective in participating in MANRS.
