Title: Collective Action for NREN Routing SecurityJoin the Director of Routing Integrity, Steve Wallace, and Sr. Network Architect, Jeff Bartig, of Internet2 for a discussion on “Improving NREN Routing Security with AS-SET”.AS-SET is an IRR object used to publish the set of origin ASNs a network is expected to announce. Implementation of prefix filters based on AS-SETs ensure only accepted routes that are intended to be announced by a peer and limit the propagation of route leaks. The outcome would ensure global NREN routing stability.The objective of this presentation is to bring together the NREN community to ensure routing stability as a whole followed by a brief training on how AS-SET is usedAgenda:

• Brief History of NREN peering policy
• The challenges of NREN routing policy
• Publishing routing policy to enable route filtering
• What is an as-set
• The role of as-sets to enable filter creation
• Models for maintaining as-sets
• Q&A

Who this call is for:

• Network architects and cybersecurity engineers.
• NREN leaders and network managers.

The presentation will be held two times to accommodate the community around the globe, once on Oct 9 from 8:00-9:00 PM UTC and again on Oct 11 from 12:00-1:00 AM UTC over Zoom to accommodate attendee timezones.If you have any questions, feel free to email Thomas Araneta at taraneta@internet2.edu
