Control Plane Policing

• The Control Plane Policing feature allows users to configure a quality of service (QoS) filter that manages the traffic flow of control plane packets to protect the control plane of Cisco IOS routers and switches against reconnaissance and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks.
• CoPP can help maintain packet forwarding and protocol states despite an attack or heavy traffic load on the router or switch.
• Uses MQC (Modular QoS CLI)
• In version 12.4(4)T additional features were introduced

Control Plane Protection

• Introduces subinterfaces to the control plane(12.4(4)T)
• Aggregrate Control Plane Policing
  • Control Plane cef-exception subinterface
    • receives all traffic that is either redirected as a result of a configured input feature in the CEF packet forwarding path for process switching or directly enqueued in the control plane input queue by the interface driver.
    • Eg. ARP, L2 Keepalives and all non-IP host traffic.
  • Control Plane host subinterface
    • receives all control-plane IP traffic that is directly destined for one of the router interfaces.
    • All host traffic terminates on and is processed by the router.
    • Eg. SSH, SNMP, BGP, OSPF, Tunnel termination and EIGRP.
  • Control Plane transit subinterface
    • receives all control-plane IP traffic that is software switched by the route processor.

Port-filter policy

• blocks traffic destined to closed or nonlistened TCP/UDP ports
• Only works with the host subinterface.
• maintains a global database of all open TCP and UDP ports on the router, including ports created by applications.
