Abstract

As the most fundamental infrastructure in the current Internet, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) supports the inter-connectivity of different Autonomous Systems (ASs) and then the reachability can be achieved from any network in the Internet. However, due to the lack of security consideration during its original design, the BGP suffers from multiple security threats. Another challenge is that it cannot support the future sophisticated applications with deterministic routing. In this article, we propose a novel BGP management architecture, namely BGPChain, which is based on the blockchain in order to establish a secure, smart, and agile routing infrastructure for the future Internet.
