Table of Contents

1. Introduction

RIFT is a protocol that focuses heavily on operational simplicity. [RIFT] natively supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) functionality that allows each node in an underlay network to automatically derive its place in the topology and configure itself accordingly when properly cabled. RIFT can also disseminate Key-Value information contained in Key-Value Topology Information Elements (KV-TIEs) [RIFT-KV]. These KV-TIEs can contain any information and therefore be used for any purpose. Leveraging RIFT to provision EVPN overlays without any need for configuration and leveraging KV capabilities to easily validate correct operation of such overlay without a single point of failure would provide significant benefit to operators in terms of simplicity and robustness of such a solution.

1.1. Requirements Language

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2. Design Considerations

EVPN supports various service models, this document defines a method for the VLAN-Aware service model defined in [RFC7432]. Other service models may be considered in future revisions of this document.

Each model has its own set of requirements for deployment. For example, a functional BGP overlay is necessary to exchange EVPN NLRI regardless of the service model. Furthermore, the requirements are made up of individual variables, such as each node's loopback address and AS number for the BGP session. Some of these variables may be coordinated across each node in a network, but are ultimately locally significant (e.g. route distinguishers). Similarly, calculation of some variables will be local only to each device. RIFT contains currently enough topology information in each node to calculate all those necessary variables automatically.

Once the EVPN overlay is configured and becomes operational, RIFT Key-Value TIEs can be used to distribute state information to allow for validation of basic operational correctness without the need for further tooling.

3. System ID

The 64-bit RIFT System ID that uniquely identifies a node as defined in RIFT [RIFT].

4. Fabric ID

RIFT operates on variants of Clos substrate which are commonly called an IP Fabric. Since EVPN VLANs can be either contained within one fabric or span them, Auto-EVPN introduces the concept of a Fabric ID into RIFT.

This section describes an optional extension to LIE packet schema in the form of a 16-bit Fabric ID that identifies a nodes membership within a particular fabric. Auto-EVPN capable nodes MUST support this extension but MAY not advertise it when not participating in Auto-EVPN. A non-present Fabric ID and value of 0 is reserved as ANY_FABRIC and MUST NOT be used for any other purpose.

Fabric ID MUST be considered in existing adjacency FSM rules so nodes that support Auto-EVPN can interoperate with nodes that do not. The LIE validation is extended with following clause and if it is not met, miscabling should be declared:

(if fabric_id is not advertised by either node OR
 if fabric_id is identical on both nodes)
    AND
(if auto_evpn_version is not advertised by either node OR
 if auto_evpn_version is identical on both nodes)

The appendix details LIE (Appendix A.1.2) and Node-TIE (Appendix A.2.2) schema changes.

5. Auto-EVPN Device Roles

Auto-EVPN requires that each node understand its given role within the scope of the EVPN implementation so each node derives the necessary variables and provides the necessary overlay configuration. For example, a leaf node performing VXLAN gateway functions does not need to derive its own Cluster ID or learn one from the route reflector that it peers with.

5.1. All Participating Nodes

Not all nodes have to participate in Auto-EVPN, however if a node does assume an Auto-EVPN role, it MUST derive the following variables:

5.2. ToF Nodes as Route Reflectors

This section defines an Auto-EVPN role whereby some Top-of-Fabric nodes act as EVPN route reflectors. It is expected that route reflectors would establish IBGP sessions with leaf nodes in the same fabric. The typical route reflector requirements do not change, however determining which specific values to use requires further consideration. ToF nodes performing route reflector functionality MUST derive the following variables:

5.3. Leaf Nodes

Leaf nodes derive their role from realizing they are at the bottom of the fabric, i.e. not having any southbound adjacencies. Alternately, a node can assume a leaf node if it has only southbound adjacencies to nodes with explicit LEAF_LEVEL to allow for scenarios where RIFT leaves do NOT participate in Auto-EVPN.

Leaf nodes MUST derive the following variables:

If a leaf node is required to perform layer-2 VXLAN gateway functions, it MUST be capable of deriving the following types of variables:

For each VLAN derived in an EVI the following variables MUST be derived:

If a leaf node is required to perform layer-3 VXLAN gateway functions, it MUST additionally be capable of deriving the following types of variables:

Type-5 EVPN IP Prefix with ToFs performing gateway functionality can also be derived and will be described in a future version of this document.

6. Auto-EVPN Variable Derivation

As previously mentioned, not all nodes are required to derive all variables in a given network (e.g. a transit spine node may not need to derive any or participate in Auto-EVPN). Additionally, all derived variables are derived from RIFT's FSM or ZTP mechanism so no additional flooding beside RIFT flooding is necessary for the functionality.

It is also important to mention that all variable derivation is in some way based on combinations of System ID, MAC-VRF ID, Fabric ID, EVI and VLAN and MUST comply precisely with calculation methods specified in the Auto-EVPN Variable Derivation section to allow interoperability between different implementations. All foundational code elements such as imports, constants, etc. are also mentioned there.

6.1. Auto-EVPN Version

This section describes extensions to both the RIFT LIE packet and Node-TIE schemas in the form of a 16-bit value that identifies the Auto-EVPN Version. Auto-EVPN capable nodes MUST support this extension, but MAY choose not to advertise it in LIEs and Node-TIEs when Auto-EVPN is not being utilized. The appendix describes LIE (Appendix A.1.1) and Node-TIE (Appendix A.2.1) schema changes in detail.

6.2. MAC-VRF ID

This section describes a variable MAC-VRF ID that uniquely identifies an instance of EVPN instance (EVI) and is used in variable derivation procedures. Each EVPN EVI MUST be associated with a unique MAC-VRF ID, this document does not specify a method for making that association or ensuring that they are coordinated properly across fabric(s).

6.3. Loopback Address

First and foremost, RIFT does not advertise anything more specific than the fabric default route in the southbound direction by default. However, Auto-EVPN nodes MUST advertise specific loopback addresses southbound to all other Auto-EVPN nodes so to establish MP-BGP reachability correctly in all scenarios.

Auto-EVPN nodes MUST derive a ULA-scoped IPv6 loopback address to be used as both the IBGP source address, as well as the VTEP source when VXLAN gateways are required. Calculation is done using the 6-bytes of reserved ULA space, the 2-byte Fabric ID, and the node's 8-byte System ID. Derivation of the System ID varies slightly depending upon the node's location/role in the fabric and will be described in subsequent sections.

6.3.1. Leaf Nodes as Gateways

Calculation is done using the 6-bytes of reserved ULA space, the 2-byte Fabric ID, and the node's 8-byte System ID.

In order for leaf nodes to derive IPv6 loopback addresses, algorithms shown in both auto_evpn_fidsidv6loopback (Figure 24) and auto_evpn_v6prefixfidsid2loopback (Figure 9) are required.

IPv4 addresses MAY be supported, but it should be noted that they have a higher likelihood of collision. The appendix contains the required auto_evpn_fidsid2v4loopback (Figure 23) algorithm to support IPv4 loopback derivation.

6.3.2. ToF Nodes as Route Reflectors

ToF nodes acting as route reflectors MUST derive their loopback address according to the specific section describing the algorithm. Calculation is done using the 6-bytes of reserved ULA space, the 2-byte Fabric ID, and the 8-byte System ID of each elected route reflector.

In order for the ToF nodes to derive IPv6 loopbacks, the algorithms shown in both auto_evpn_fidsidv6loopback (Figure 24) and auto_evpn_fidrrpref2rrloopback (Figure 10) are required.

In order for the ToF derive the necessary prefix range to facilitate peering requests from any leaf, the algorithm shown in "auto_evpn_fid2fabric_prefixes" (Figure 8) is required.

6.3.2.1. Route Reflector Election Procedures

Four Top-of-Fabric nodes MUST be elected as an IBGP route reflector. Each ToF performs the election independently based on system IDs of other ToFs in the fabric obtained via southbound reflection. The route reflector election procedures are defined as follows:

  1. ToF node with the highest System ID.
  2. ToF node with the lowest System ID.
  3. ToF node with the 2nd highest System ID.
  4. ToF node with the 2nd lowest System ID.

This ordering is necessary to prevent a single node with either the highest or lowest System ID from triggering changes to route reflector loopback addresses as it would result in all BGP sessions dropping.

For example, if two nodes, ToF01 and ToF02 with System IDs 002c6af5a281c000 and 002c6bf5788fc000 respectively, ToF02 would be elected due to it having the highest System ID of the ToFs (002c6bf5788fc000). If a ToF determines that it is elected as route reflector, it uses the knowledge of its position in the list to derive route reflector v6 loopback address.

The algorithm shown in "auto_evpn_sids2rrs" (Figure 6) is required to accomplish this.

Considerations for multiplane route reflector elections will be included in future revisions.

6.4. Autonomous System Number

Nodes in each fabric MUST derive a private autonomous system number based on its Fabric ID so that it is unique across the fabric.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_fid2private_AS (Figure 25) is required to derive the private ASN.

6.5. Router ID

Nodes MUST drive a Router ID that is based on both its System ID and Fabric ID so that it is unique to both.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_sidfid2bgpid (Figure 11) is required to derive the BGP Router ID.

6.6. Cluster ID

Route reflector nodes in each fabric MUST derive a cluster ID that is based on its Fabric ID so that it is unique across the fabric.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_fid2clusterid (Figure 26) is required to derive the BGP Cluster ID.

6.7. Route Target

Nodes hosting EVPN EVIs MUST derive a route target extended community based on the MAC-VRF ID for each EVI so that it is unique across the network. Route targets MUST be of type 0 as per RFC4360.

For example, if given a MAC-VRF ID of 1, the derived route target would be "target:1"

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_evi2rt (Figure 12) is required to derive the Route Target community.

6.8. Route Distinguisher

Nodes hosting EVPN EVIs MUST derive a type-0 route distinguisher based on its System ID and Fabric ID so that it is unique per MAC-VRF and per node.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_sidfid2rd (Figure 18) is required to derive the Route Distinguisher.

6.9. EVPN MAC-VRF Services

It's obvious that applications utilizing Auto-EVPN overlay services may require a variety of layer-2 and/or layer-3 traffic considerations. Variables supporting these services are also derived based on some combination of MAC-VRF ID, Fabric ID, and other constant values. Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) gateway address derivation also leverages a set of constant RANDOMSEEDS (Figure 5) values that MUST be used to provide additional entropy.

In order to ensure that VLAN ID's don't collide, a single deployment SHOULD NOT exceed 3 fabrics with 3 EVIs where each EVI terminate 15 VLANs. The algorithms shown in auto_evpn_fidevivlansvlans2desc (Figure 16) and auto_evpn_vlan_description_table (Figure 15) are required to derive VLANs accordingly. An implementation MAY exceed this, but MUST indicate methods to ensure collision-free derivation and describe which VLANs are stretched across fabrics.

6.9.1. Untagged Traffic in Multiple Fabrics

6.9.2.3. MAC Address

The MAC address MUST be a unicast address and also MUST be identical for any IRB gateways that belong to an individual bridge-domain across fabrics. The last 5-bytes MUST be a hash of the MAC-VRF ID and a constant value of 1 that is calculated using the previously mentioned random seed values.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_fidevividsid2mac (Figure 22) is required to derive MAC addresses.

6.9.2.4. IPv6 IRB Gateway Address

6.9.3. Tagged Traffic in a Single Fabric

This section defines a method to derive unique VLAN, VNI, MAC, and gateway address values for deployments where untagged traffic is contained within a single fabric.

6.9.3.1. VLAN

6.9.3.2. VNI

Tagged traffic contained to a single fabric MUST derive VNIs based on MAC-VRF ID and Fabric ID in conjunction with a constant value. These VNIs MUST correspond to EVPN Type-2 routes.

6.9.4.2. Route Target

Nodes hosting IP prefix routes MUST derive a route target extended community based on the MAC-VRF ID for each IP-VRF so that it is unique across the network. Route targets MUST be of type 0.

The algorithm shown in auto_evpn_evi2rt (Figure 12) is required to derive the Route Target community.

6.10. Auto-EVPN Analytics

Leaf nodes MAY optionally advertise analytics information about the Auto-EVPN fabric to ToF nodes using RIFT Key-Value TIEs. This may be advantageous in that overlay validation and troubleshooting activities can be performed on the ToF nodes.

This section requests suggested values from the RIFT Well-Known Key-Type Registry and describes their use for Auto-EVPN.

Table 1: Requested RIFT Key Registry Values
Name Value Description
