Abstract
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the standard inter-domain route protocol on the Internet. Autonomous System (AS) traffic is forwarded by the BGP neighbors. In the route selection, if there are malicious or inactive neighbors, it will affect the network’s performance or even cause the network to crash. Therefore, choosing trusted and safe neighbors is an essential part of BGP security research. In response to such a problem, in this paper we propose a BGP Neighbor Trust Establishment Mechanism based on the Bargaining Game (BNTE-BG). By combining service quality attributes such as bandwidth, packet loss rate, jitter, delay, and price with bargaining game theory, it allows the AS to select trusted neighbors which satisfy the Quality of Service independently. When the trusted neighbors are forwarding data, we draw on the gray correlation algorithm to calculate neighbors’ behavioral trust and detect malicious or inactive BGP neighbors.
Highlights
The main contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) We propose a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) neighbor trust establishment mechanism based on the bargaining game, which allows an Autonomous System (AS) to select trusted neighbors that meet the network service quality
The advantages of the above work are as follows: Using bargaining game theory, an AS can independently choose trusted neighbors according to its own security strategy; the services quality is guaranteed by negotiating service quality attributes such as bandwidth, packet loss rate, jitter, and delay; by detecting malicious/inactive neighbors, the loss of AS is effectively reduced
The secure establishment of neighbors in the BGP is an important issue of BGP security
Summary
Studying the BGP neighbor trust establishment mechanism, which is easy to deploy and can provide security protection, has important theoretical value and practical significance. The main contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) We propose a BGP neighbor trust establishment mechanism based on the bargaining game, which allows an AS to select trusted neighbors that meet the network service quality. The advantages of the above work are as follows: Using bargaining game theory, an AS can independently choose trusted neighbors according to its own security strategy; the services quality is guaranteed by negotiating service quality attributes such as bandwidth, packet loss rate, jitter, and delay; by detecting malicious/inactive neighbors, the loss of AS is effectively reduced.
