Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed to propagating and authenticating border gateway protocol route advertisements. A trusted authority device stores and distributes routing information for various autonomous systems. The trusted authority device also issues and maintains digital certificates that are each assigned to one of the autonomous systems. The digital certificate can be utilized by autonomous systems to verify the authenticity of routing information advertised by another autonomous system. Each autonomous system can employ a routing device that can generate a route advertisement based on routing information received from the trusted authority device. The route advertisement can include a digital signature, a digital certificate, and a time-to-live value, among other things, each of which can be utilized by routing devices of other autonomous systems to determine the authenticity and validity of received routing information.
