This memo provides a method for protecting a router's control plane
from undesired or malicious traffic.  In this approach, all
legitimate router control plane traffic is identified.  Once
legitimate traffic has been identified, a filter is deployed in the
router's forwarding plane.  That filter prevents traffic not
specifically identified as legitimate from reaching the router's
control plane or rate limited to an acceptable level.
