usdIpProfileSrcAddrValidEnable
Module: Unisphere-Data-IP-PROFILE-MIB
OID (symbolic): Unisphere-Data-IP-PROFILE-MIB::usdIpProfileSrcAddrValidEnable
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.26.1.1.1.1.13
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: UsdEnable
Access: read-create
Description: Enable/disable whether source addresses in received IP packets are validated. Validation is performed by looking up the source IP address in the routing database and determining whether the packet arrived on the expected interface; if not, the packet is discarded.
What is usdIpProfileSrcAddrValidEnable?
This writable enable/disable field controls unicast source-address validation on interfaces built from this profile, defaulting to disabled. An admin enables this as an anti-spoofing measure, causing the router to discard packets whose source address doesn't route back out the interface it arrived on, which helps block spoofed-source traffic like some denial-of-service attacks. For example, enabling usdIpProfileSrcAddrValidEnable on a customer-facing access profile causes the router to drop any packet claiming a source address that isn't actually reachable via that customer's interface.
