You are here: Home / MANRS for CDN and Cloud Providers / Join the MANRS CDN and Cloud Provider Programme

Requirements for Participation

By joining, you support and commit to the baseline of routing security defined by a set of six security-enhancing actions, of which five are mandatory to implement.

The actions are:

  1. Prevent propagation of incorrect routing information
  2. Prevent traffic of illegitimate source IP addresses
  3. Facilitate global operational communication and coordination
  4. Facilitate validation of routing information on a global scale
  5. Encourage MANRS adoption
  6. Provide monitoring and debugging tools to peering partners (optional)

For more information about the actions, visit MANRS for CDN and Cloud Providers page.

MANRS CDN&Cloud Provider Programme Application

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.
The form can be filled out either in English, or in your native language.
1 Operator Information
2 MANRS Actions
3 Consent & Review
  • Select the countries where your organization is based and/or provides services. We use ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 country codes.
  • Add each AS Number on its own line by using the "+" key.
  • Upload a .jpg or .png version of your company's logo, suitable for display on a white background. This image will be published with your listing if your application is accepted.
  • Action 1: Prevent propagation of incorrect routing information

    CDN/Cloud provider implements a system that ensures correctness of their own announcements and announcements of their peers (non-transit) by implementing explicit (whitelist) filtering with prefix granularity.

    This requirement is part of the peering policy of the CDN/Cloud provider and is publicly available.
  • Tell us more about how you implement filtering. This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 1?
  • Action 2: Prevent traffic with illegitimate source IP addresses

    CDN/Cloud provider implements anti-spoofing controls to prevent packets with illegitimate source IP address from leaving the network (egress filters).

    Note: There is a difference between CDN and Cloud network with regards to this Action. There is additional challenge for Cloud providers, since they have to monitor and control what a virtual machine can do on the network. This Action requires controls that prevent traffic with illegitimate source IP addresses leaving the Autonomous System of the CDN or Cloud provider.
  • Tell us more about how you validate source addresses. This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 2?
  • Action 3: Facilitate global operational communication and coordination

    CDN/Cloud provider maintains globally accessible up-to-date contact information in PeeringDB and relevant RIR databases.
  • Tell us more about your coordination efforts. This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 3?
  • Action 4: Facilitate validation of routing information on a global scale

    CDN/Cloud provider has publicly documented ASNs and prefixes that are intended to be advertised to external parties.
  • Please provide us links to publicly available documentation, if it is available online. This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 4?
  • Action 5. Encourage MANRS adoption

    CDN/Cloud provider actively encourages MANRS adoption among the peers.
  • This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 5?
  • Action 6. Provide monitoring and debugging tools to the peering partners

    CDN/Cloud provider provides a mechanism to inform peering partners if their announcements did not meet the requirements of the peering policy of the CDN and Cloud provider.
  • Please describe the tool you are using and if it is available publicly or to the peers. This information is used by MANRS to evaluate your application and is not published.
  • What would like you like visitors to the MANRS website to know about your implementation of Action 6?
