Description:

Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (URPF) is a function that
checks the validity of the source address of IP packets
received on an interface. This in an attempt to prevent
Denial of Service attacks based on IP address spoofing.

URPF checks validity of a source address by determining
whether the packet would be successfully routed as a
destination address.
Based on configuration, the check made
can be for existence of any route for the address, or more
strictly for a route out the interface on which the packet
was received by the device. When a violating packet is
detected, it can be dropped.
This MIB allows detection of
spoofingevents.
