IP source guard is intended to improve port security by blocking illegal packets. It can, for example, prevent invalid hosts from using a valid IP address to access the network.

IP source guard can filter packets according to the packet source IP address, source MAC address, and VLAN tag. It supports these types of binding entries:

· IP-port binding entry

· MAC-port binding entry

· IP-MAC-port binding entry

· IP-VLAN-port binding entry

· MAC-VLAN-port binding entry

· IP-MAC-VLAN-port binding entry

A binding entry can be statically configured or dynamically added.

After receiving a packet, an IP source guard-enabled port obtains the key attributes (source IP address, source MAC address and VLAN tag) of the packet and then looks them up in the IP source guard entries. If there is a match, the port forwards the packet; otherwise, the port discards the packet, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 Diagram for the IP source guard function

NOTE:

IP source guard entries configured on a port take effect only on that port.

Static IP source guard entries

A static IP source guard entry is configured manually. It is suitable for scenarios where only a few hosts exist in a LAN and their IP addresses are manually configured. For example, you can configure a static binding entry on a port that connects a server, allowing the port to receive packets from and send packets to only the server.

A static IPv4 source guard entry filters IPv4 packets received by the port or checks the validity of users by cooperating with the ARP detection feature. A static IPv6 source guard entry filters IPv6 packets received by the port or checks the validity of users by cooperating with the ND detection feature.

For information about ARP detection, see "Configuring ARP attack protection." For information about ND detection, see "Configuring ND attack defense."

The switch supports only port-based IPv4/IPv6 static binding entry.

A port-based static binding entry binds an IP address, MAC address, VLAN, or any combination of the three with a port. Such an entry is effective on only the specified port. A port forwards a packet only when the IP address, MAC address, and VLAN tag (if any) of the packet all match those in a static binding entry on the port or a global static binding entry. All other packets will be dropped.

Port-based static binding entries are used to check the validity of users who are trying to access a port.

Dynamic IP source guard entries

Dynamic IP source guard entries are generated dynamically according to client entries on the DHCP snooping or DHCP relay agent device. They are suitable for scenarios where many hosts reside in a LAN and obtain IP addresses through DHCP. Once DHCP allocates an IP address to a client, IP source guard automatically adds the client entry to allow the client to access the network. A user using an IP address not obtained through DHCP cannot access the network. Dynamic IPv6 source guard entries can also be obtained from client entries on the ND snooping device.

· Dynamic IPv4 source guard entries are generated dynamically based on DHCP snooping or DHCP relay entries to filter incoming IPv4 packets on a port.

· Dynamic IPv6 source guard entries are generated dynamically based on DHCPv6 snooping or ND snooping entries to filter incoming IPv6 packets on a port.

For information about DHCP snooping, DHCP relay, DHCPv6 snooping, and ND snooping, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

IP source guard configuration task list

Complete the following tasks to configure IPv4 source guard:

Task	Remarks
Configuring IPv4 source guard on a port	Required.
Configuring a static IPv4 source guard entry	Optional.
Setting the maximum number of IPv4 source guard entries	Optional.

Complete the following tasks to configure IPv6 source guard:

Task	Remarks
Configuring IPv6 source guard on a port	Required.
Configuring a static IPv6 source guard entry	Optional.
Setting the maximum number of IPv6 source guard entries	Optional.

NOTE:

· You cannot enable IP source guard on a link aggregation member port. If IP source guard is enabled on a port, you cannot assign the port to a link aggregation group.

· IP source guard does not take effect if configured on a Layer 3 aggregate interface or Layer 3 aggregate subinterface.

Configuring the IPv4 source guard function

When an EB or EC2 card is operating in standard ACL mode, the card does not support MAC-port binding entries, MAC-VLAN-port binding entries, or IP-MAC-VLAN-port binding entries. For more information about the standard ACL mode, see ACL and QoS Configuration Guide.

Configuring IPv4 source guard on a port

The IPv4 source guard function must be configured on a port before the port can obtain dynamic IPv4 source guard entries and use static and dynamic IPv4 source guard entries to filter packets.

· For information about how to configure a static binding entry, see "Configuring a static IPv4 source guard entry."

· On a Layer 2 Ethernet port, IP source guard cooperates with DHCP snooping, dynamically obtains the DHCP snooping entries generated during dynamic IP address allocation, and generates IP source guard entries accordingly.

· On a Layer 3 Ethernet interface or VLAN interface, IP source guard cooperates with DHCP relay, dynamically obtains the DHCP relay entries generated during dynamic IP address allocation across subnets, and generates IP source guard entries accordingly.

Dynamic IPv4 source guard entries can contain such information as MAC address, IP address, VLAN tag, ingress port information, and entry type (DHCP snooping or DHCP relay), where the MAC address, IP address, or VLAN tag information might not be included depending on your configuration. IP source guard applies these entries to the port to filter packets.

Configuration guidelines

When you configure the IPv4 source guard function on a port, follow these guidelines:

· The keyword specified in the ip verify source command is only for instructing the generation of dynamic IPv4 source guard entries. It does not affect static binding entries. When using a static binding entry, a port does not take the keyword into consideration.

· To generate IPv4 binding entries dynamically based on DHCP entries, make sure that DHCP snooping or DHCP relay is configured and working correctly. For information about DHCP snooping configuration and DHCP relay configuration, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

· If you configure the IPv4 source guard function on a port multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

· Although dynamic IPv4 source guard entries are generated based on DHCP entries, the number of dynamic IPv4 source guard entries is not necessarily the same as that of the DHCP entries.

Configuration procedure

To configure the IPv4 source guard function on a port:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Configure IPv4 source guard on the port.	ip verify source { ip-address \| ip-address mac-address \| mac-address }	Not configured by default.

Configuring a static IPv4 source guard entry

Static IPv4 binding entries take effect only on the ports configured with the IPv4 source guard function (see "Configuring IPv4 source guard on a port").

To configure a static IPv4 binding entry on a port:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter Ethernet interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Configure a static IPv4 source guard entry on the port.	ip source binding { ip-address ip-address \| ip-address ip-address mac-address mac-address \| mac-address mac-address } [ vlan vlan-id ]	By default, no static IPv4 binding entry is configured on a port. A static source guard entry can be configured on only Layer 2 Ethernet ports.

NOTE:

· You cannot configure the same static binding entry on one port, but you can configure the same static entry on different ports.

· If a static binding entry to be added denotes the same binding as an existing dynamic binding entry, the new static binding entry overwrites the dynamic binding entry.

Setting the maximum number of IPv4 source guard entries

The maximum number of IPv4 source guard entries is used to limit the total number of static and dynamic IPv4 source guard entries on a port. When the number of IPv4 binding entries on a port reaches the maximum, the port does not allowed new IPv4 binding entries any more.

If the maximum number of IPv4 binding entries to be configured is smaller than the number of existing IPv4 binding entries on the port, the maximum number can be configured successfully and the existing entries are not affected. New IPv4 binding entries, however, cannot be added more unless the number of IPv4 binding entries on the port drops below the configured maximum.

To configure the maximum number of IPv4 binding entries allowed on a port:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Set the maximum number of IPv4 binding entries allowed on the port.	ip verify source max-entries number	Optional. By default, the maximum number allowed on a port is that allowed by the system. The maximum number allowed by the system varies by system working mode. For more information about system working modes, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Configuring the IPv6 source guard function

To configure IPv6 source guard, configure the acl ipv6 enable command first. For information about the acl ipv6 enable command, see ACL and QoS Command Reference.

When an EB or EC2 card is operating in standard ACL mode, the card does not support the IPv6 source guard function. For more information about the standard ACL mode, see ACL and QoS Configuration Guide.

Configuring IPv6 source guard on a port

The IPv6 source guard function must be configured on a port before the port can obtain dynamic IPv6 source guard entries and use static and dynamic IPv6 source guard entries to filter packets.

· For information about how to configure a static IPv6 static binding entry, see "Configuring a static IPv6 source guard entry."

· Cooperating with DHCPv6 snooping, IP source guard dynamically generates IP source guard entries based on the DHCPv6 snooping entries that are generated during dynamic IP address allocation.

· Cooperating with ND snooping, IP source guard dynamically generates IP source guard entries based on dynamic ND snooping entries.

Dynamic IPv6 source guard entries can contain such information as MAC address, IPv6 address, VLAN tag, ingress port information and entry type (DHCPv6 snooping or ND snooping), where the MAC address, IPv6 address, and/or VLAN tag information might not be included depending on your configuration. IP source guard applies these entries to the port, so that the port can filter packets accordingly.

Although dynamic IPv6 source guard entries are generated based on DHCPv6 entries, the number of dynamic IPv6 source guard entries is not necessarily the same as that of the DHCPv6 entries.

Configuration guidelines

When you configure the IPv6 source guard function on a port, follow these guidelines:

· If you configure the IPv6 source guard function on a port multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

· To obtain dynamic IPv6 source guard entries, make sure that DHCPv6 snooping or ND snooping is configured and works correctly. For DHCPv6 and ND snooping configuration information, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

· If you configure both ND snooping and DHCPv6 snooping on the device, IPv6 source guard uses the type of entries that generated first. Because DHCPv6 snooping entries are usually generated first in such a case, IPv6 source guard usually uses the DHCPv6 snooping entries to filter packets on a port.

Configuration procedure

To configure the IPv6 source guard function on a port:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Configure the IPv6 source guard function on the port.	ipv6 verify source { ipv6-address \| ipv6-address mac-address \| mac-address }	Not configured by default. EB cards do not support the mac-address keyword.

NOTE:

The keyword specified in the ipv6 verify source command is only for instructing the generation of dynamic IPv6 source guard entries. It does not affect static binding entries. When using a static binding entry, a port does not consider the keyword into consideration.

Configuring a static IPv6 source guard entry

Static IPv6 binding entries take effect only on ports configured with the IPv6 source guard function (see "Configuring the IPv6 source guard function").

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

· You cannot configure the same static binding entry on one port, but you can configure the same static binding entry on different ports.

· In an IPv6 source guard entry, the MAC address cannot be all 0s, all Fs (a broadcast MAC address), or a multicast address, and the IPv6 address must be a unicast address and cannot be all 0s, all Fs, or a loopback address.

· When the ND detection function is configured, make sure to specify the VLAN where ND detection is configured in static binding entries. Otherwise, ND packets will be discarded because they cannot match any static IPv6 binding entry. For more information about the ND detection function, see "Configuring ND attack defense."

Configuration procedure

To configure a static IPv6 source guard entry on a port:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Enter interface view.	interface interface-type interface-number	N/A
3. Configure a static IPv6 binding entry on a port.	ipv6 source binding { ipv6-address ipv6-address \| ipv6-address ipv6-address mac-address mac-address \| mac-address mac-address } [ vlan vlan-id ]	By default, no static IPv6 binding entry is configured on a port. A static IPv6 binding entry can be configured on only Layer 2 Ethernet ports. EB cards do not support the ipv6-address keyword.

NOTE:

If a static binding entry to be added denotes the same binding as an existing dynamic binding entry, the new static binding entry overwrites the dynamic binding entry.

Setting the maximum number of IPv6 source guard entries

The maximum number of IPv6 source guard entries is used to limit the total number of static and dynamic IPv6 source guard entries on a port. When the number of IPv6 binding entries on a port reaches the maximum, the port does not allow new IPv6 binding entries any more.

If the maximum number of IPv6 binding entries to be configured is smaller than the number of existing IPv6 binding entries on the port, the maximum number can be configured successfully and the existing entries are not affected. New IPv6 binding entries, however, cannot be added more unless the number of IPv6 binding entries on the port drops below the configured maximum.

To configure the maximum number of IPv6 binding entries allowed on a port:
