Introduction SRv6 refers to Segment Routing instantiated on the IPv6 dataplane [RFC8402]. SRv6 based BGP services refers to the Layer-3 and Layer-2 overlay services with BGP as control plane and SRv6 as dataplane. SRv6 SID refers to an SRv6 Segment Identifier as defined in [RFC8402]. SRv6 Service SID refers to an SRv6 SID associated with one of the service-specific SRv6 Endpoint behaviors on the advertising Provider Edge (PE) router, such as (but not limited to), END.DT (Table lookup in a VRF) or END.DX (cross-connect to a nexthop) behaviors in the case of Layer-3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) service as defined in [RFC8986]. To provide SRv6 service with best-effort connectivity, the egress PE signals an SRv6 Service SID with the BGP overlay service route. The ingress PE encapsulates the payload in an outer IPv6 header where the destination address is the SRv6 Service SID provided by the egress Provider Edge (PE). The underlay between the PEs only needs to support plain IPv6 forwarding [RFC8200]. To provide SRv6 service in conjunction with an underlay SLA from the ingress PE to the egress PE, the egress PE colors the overlay service route with a Color Extended Community [I-D.ietf-idr-segment-routing-te-policy] for steering of flows for those routes as specified in section 8 of [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing-policy]. The ingress PE encapsulates the payload packet in an outer IPv6 header with the segment list of SR policy associated with the related SLA along with the SRv6 Service SID associated with the route using the Segment Routing Header (SRH) [RFC8754]. The underlay nodes whose SRv6 SID's are part of the SRH segment list MUST support SRv6 data plane. BGP is used to advertise the reachability of prefixes of a particular service from an egress PE to ingress PE nodes. This document describes how existing BGP messages between PEs may carry SRv6 Service SIDs to interconnect PEs and form VPNs. Dawra, et al.

Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 2. SRv6 Services TLVs This document extends the use of the BGP Prefix-SID attribute [RFC8669] to carry SRv6 SIDs and their associated information with the BGP address-families that are listed further in this section. The SRv6 Service TLVs are defined as two new TLVs of the BGP Prefix- SID Attribute to achieve signaling of SRv6 SIDs for L3 and L2 services. o SRv6 L3 Service TLV: This TLV encodes Service SID information for SRv6 based L3 services. It corresponds to the equivalent functionality provided by an MPLS Label when received with a Layer 3 service route as defined in [RFC4364] [RFC4659] [RFC8950] [RFC9136]. Some SRv6 Endpoint behaviors which MAY be encoded, but not limited to, are End.DX4, End.DT4, End.DX6, End.DT6, etc. o SRv6 L2 Service TLV: This TLV encodes Service SID information for SRv6 based L2 services. It corresponds to the equivalent functionality provided by an MPLS Label1 for Ethernet VPN (EVPN) Route-Types as defined in [RFC7432]. Some SRv6 Endpoint behaviors which MAY be encoded, but not limited to, are End.DX2, End.DX2V, End.DT2U, End.DT2M etc. When an egress PE is enabled for BGP Services over SRv6 data-plane, it signals one or more SRv6 Service SIDs enclosed in SRv6 Service TLV(s) within the BGP Prefix-SID Attribute attached to MP-BGP NLRIs defined in [RFC4760] [RFC4659] [RFC8950] [RFC7432] [RFC4364] [RFC9136] where applicable as described in Section 5 and Section 6. The support for BGP Multicast VPN (MVPN) Services [RFC6513] with SRv6 is outside the scope of this document. The following depicts the SRv6 Service TLVs encoded in the BGP Prefix-SID Attribute: Dawra, et al.

A BGP speaker receiving a route containing BGP Prefix-SID Attribute with one or more SRv6 Service TLVs observes the following rules when advertising the received route to other peers: o if the nexthop is unchanged during the advertisement, the SRv6 Service TLVs, including any unrecognized Types of Sub-TLV and Sub- Sub-TLV, SHOULD be propagated further. In addition, all Reserved fields in the TLV or Sub-TLV or Sub-Sub-TLV MUST be propagated unchanged. o if the nexthop is changed, the TLVs, Sub-TLVs, and Sub-Sub-TLVs SHOULD be updated with the locally allocated SRv6 SID information. Any unrecognized received Sub-TLVs and Sub-Sub-TLVs MUST be removed. 3.

It is assigned values from the IANA Registry "SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Types". o SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Length (2 octets): Specifies the total length, in octets, of the Sub-TLV Value field. o SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Value (variable): Contains data specific to the Sub-TLV Type. In addition to fixed-length data, it contains other properties of the SRv6 Service encoded as a set of SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLVs whose format is described in Section 3.2 below. 3.1. SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLV SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Type 1 is assigned for SRv6 SID Information Sub- TLV. This Sub-TLV contains a single SRv6 SID along with its properties. Its encoding is depicted below: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SRv6 Service | SRv6 Service | | | Sub-TLV | Sub-TLV | | | Type=1 | Length | RESERVED1 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // SRv6 SID Value (16 octets) // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SRv6 SID Flags| SRv6 Endpoint Behavior | RESERVED2 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLVs // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ o SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Type (1 octet): This field is set to 1 to represent SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLV. o SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Length (2 octets): This field contains the total length, in octets, of the Value field of the Sub-TLV. o RESERVED1 (1 octet): SHOULD be set to 0 by the sender and MUST be ignored by the receiver. o SRv6 SID Value (16 octets): Encodes an SRv6 SID as defined in [RFC8986] o SRv6 SID Flags (1 octet): Encodes SRv6 SID Flags - none are currently defined.

Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 6] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 o SRv6 Endpoint Behavior (2 octets): Encodes SRv6 Endpoint behavior codepoint value from the IANA registry defined in section 9.2 of [RFC8986] that is associated with SRv6 SID. The opaque endpoint behavior (i.e., value 0xFFFF) or an unrecognized endpoint behavior MUST NOT be considered invalid by the receiver. o RESERVED2 (1 octet): SHOULD be set to 0 by the sender and MUST be ignored by the receiver. o SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV Value (variable): Used to advertise properties of the SRv6 SID. It is encoded as a set of SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLVs. When multiple SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLVs are present, the ingress PE SHOULD use the SRv6 SID from the first instance of the Sub-TLV. An implementation MAY provide a local policy to override this selection. 3.2. SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLVs The format of the SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV is depicted below: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Service Data | Sub-Sub-TLV Length |Sub-Sub TLV // | Sub-Sub-TLV | | Value // | Type | | // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ o SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV Type (1 octet): Identifies the type of Sub-Sub-TLV.

SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV Type 1 is assigned for SRv6 SID structure Sub-Sub-TLV. SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV is used to advertise the lengths of the individual parts of the SRv6 SID as defined in [RFC8986].

Section 4 describes mechanisms for signaling of the SRv6 Service SID by transposing a variable part of the SRv6 SID value and carrying them in existing label fields to achieve more efficient packing of those service prefix NLRIs in BGP update messages. The SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV contains appropriate length fields when the SRv6 Service SID is signaled in split parts to enable the receiver to put together the SID accurately. Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 8] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 Transposition Offset indicates the bit position and Transposition Length indicates the number of bits that are being taken out of the SRv6 SID value and put into high order bits of label field. The bits that have been shifted out MUST be set to 0 in the SID value. Transposition Length of 0 indicates nothing is transposed and that the entire SRv6 SID value is encoded in the SID Information Sub-TLV. In this case, the Transposition Offset MUST be set to 0. The size of the label field limits the bits transposed from the SRv6 SID value into it. E.g., the size of label field in [RFC4364] [RFC8277] is 20 bits while in [RFC7432] is 24 bits. As an example, consider that the sum of the Locator Block and the Locator Node parts is 64. For an SRv6 SID where the entire Function part of size 16 bits is transposed, then the transposition offset is set to 64 and the transposition length is set to 16. While for an SRv6 SID where the Function length is 24 bits and only the lower order 20 bits are transposed (e.g. due to the limit of the label field size), then the transposition offset is set to 68 and the transposition length is set to 20. BGP speakers that do not support this specification may misinterpret, on the reception of an SRv6-based BGP service route update, the part of the SRv6 SID encoded in label field(s) as MPLS label values for MPLS-based services. Implementations supporting this specification SHOULD provide a mechanism to control the advertisement of SRv6-based BGP service routes on a per-neighbor and per-service basis. The details of deployment designs and implementation options are outside the scope of this document. Arguments MAY be generally applicable for SIDs of only specific SRv6 Endpoint behaviors (e.g., End.DT2M) and therefore the Argument length MUST be set to 0 for SIDs where the Argument is not applicable. 4. Encoding SRv6 SID Information The SRv6 Service SID(s) for a BGP Service Prefix are carried in the SRv6 Services TLVs of the BGP Prefix-SID Attribute. For certain types of BGP Services like L3VPN where a per-VRF SID allocation is used (i.e., End.DT4 or End.DT6 behaviors), the same SID is shared across multiple NLRIs thus providing efficient packing. However, for certain other types of BGP Services like EVPN VPWS where a per-PW SID allocation is required (i.e., End.DX2 behavior), each NLRI would have its own unique SID thereby resulting in inefficient packing. Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 9] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 To achieve efficient packing, this document allows the encoding of the SRv6 Service SID either as a whole in the SRv6 Services TLVs or the encoding of only the common part of the SRv6 SID (e.g., Locator) in the SRv6 Services TLVs and encoding the variable (e.g., Function or Argument parts) in the existing label fields specific to that service encoding. This later form of encoding is referred to as the Transposition Scheme where the SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV describes the sizes of the parts of the SRv6 SID and also indicates the offset of the variable part along with its length in SRv6 SID value. The use of the Transposition Scheme is RECOMMENDED for the specific service encodings that allow it as described further in Section 5 and Section 6. As an example, for the EVPN VPWS service prefix described further in Section 6.1.2, the Function part of the SRv6 SID is encoded in the MPLS Label field of the NLRI and the SID value in the SRv6 Services TLV carries only the Locator part with the SRv6 SID Structure Sub- Sub-TLV. The SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV defines the lengths of Locator Block, Locator Node, and Function parts (Arguments are not applicable for the End.DX2 behavior). Transposition Offset indicates the bit position and Transposition Length indicates the number of bits that are being taken out of the SID and put into the label field. In yet another example, for the EVPN Ethernet A-D per Ethernet Segment (ES) route described further in Section 6.1.1, only the Argument of the SID needs to be signaled. This Argument part of the SRv6 SID MAY be transposed in the Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) Label field of the ESI Label Extended Community and the SID value in the SRv6 Services TLV is set to 0 along with the inclusion of SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV. The SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV defines the lengths of Locator Block, Locator Node, Function and Argument parts. The offset and length of the Argument part SID value moved to label field is set in transposition offset and length of SID structure TLV. The receiving router is then able to put together the entire SRv6 Service SID (e.g., for the End.DT2M behavior) placing the label value received in the ESI Label field of the Ethernet A-D per ES route into the correct transposition offset and length in the SRv6 SID with the End.DT2M behavior received for an EVPN Route Type 3 value. 5. BGP based L3 Service over SRv6 BGP egress nodes (egress PEs) advertise a set of reachable prefixes. Standard BGP update propagation schemes [RFC4271], which may make use of route reflectors [RFC4456], are used to propagate these prefixes. BGP ingress nodes (ingress PEs) receive these advertisements and may add the prefix to the RIB in an appropriate VRF. Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 10] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 Egress PEs which supports SRv6 based L3 services advertises overlay service prefixes along with a Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L3 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID Attribute. This TLV serves two purposes - first, it indicates that the egress PE supports SRv6 overlay and the BGP ingress PE receiving this route MUST choose to perform IPv6 encapsulation and optionally insert an SRH [RFC8754] when required; second, it indicates the value of the Service SID to be used in the encapsulation. The Service SID thus signaled only has local significance at the egress PE, where it may be allocated or configured on a per-CE or per-VRF basis. In practice, the SID may encode a cross-connect to a specific Address Family table (END.DT) or next-hop/interface (END.DX) as defined in [RFC8986]. The SRv6 Service SID SHOULD be routable within the AS of the egress PE and serves the dual purpose of providing reachability between ingress PE and egress PE while also encoding the SRv6 Endpoint behavior. When steering for SRv6 services is based on shortest path forwarding (e.g., best-effort or IGP Flexible Algorithm [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo]) to the egress PE, the ingress PE encapsulates the payload in an outer IPv6 header where the destination address is the SRv6 Service SID associated with the related BGP route update. Therefore, the ingress PE SHOULD perform resolvability check for the SRv6 Service SID before considering the received prefix for the BGP best path computation. The result of an SRv6 Service SID resolvability (e.g., when provided via IGP Flexible Algorithm) can be ignored if the ingress PE has a local policy that allows an alternate steering mechanism to reach the egress PE. The details of such steering mechanisms are outside the scope of this document. For service over SRv6 core, the egress PE sets the next-hop to one of its IPv6 addresses. Such an address MAY be covered by the SRv6 Locator from which the SRv6 Service SID is allocated. The next-hop is used for tracking the reachability of the egress PE based on existing BGP procedures. When the BGP route is received at an ingress PE is colored with a Color Extended community and a valid SRv6 Policy is available, the steering for service flows is performed as described in Section 8 of [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing-policy]. When the ingress PE determines (with the help of SRv6 SID Structure) that the Service SID belongs to the same SRv6 Locator as the last SRv6 SID (of the egress PE) in the SR Policy segment list, it MAY exclude that last SRv6 SID when steering the service flow. For example, the effective segment Dawra, et al.

When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 20 and less than or equal to the Function Length.

It primarily focuses on MPLS based EVPNs and [RFC8365] extends to IP-based EVPN overlays. [RFC7432] defines Route Types 1, 2, and 3 which carry prefixes and MPLS Label fields; the Label fields have a specific use for MPLS encapsulation of EVPN traffic. Route Type 5 carrying MPLS label information (and thus encapsulation information) for EVPN is defined in [RFC9136]. Route Types 6, 7, and 8 are defined in [I-D.ietf-bess-evpn-igmp-mld-proxy]. o Ethernet Auto-discovery Route (Route Type 1) o MAC/IP Advertisement Route (Route Type 2) o Inclusive Multicast Ethernet Tag Route (Route Type 3) o Ethernet Segment route (Route Type 4) o IP prefix route (Route Type 5) o Selective Multicast Ethernet Tag route (Route Type 6) o IGMP join sync route (Route Type 7) o IGMP leave sync route (Route Type 8) The specifications for other EVPN Route Types are outside the scope of this document. To support SRv6 based EVPN overlays, one or more SRv6 Service SIDs are advertised with Route Type 1, 2, 3, and 5. The SRv6 Service SID(s) per Route Type are advertised in SRv6 L3/L2 Service TLVs within the BGP Prefix-SID Attribute. Signaling of SRv6 Service SID(s) serves two purposes - first, it indicates that the BGP egress device supports SRv6 overlay and the BGP ingress device receiving this route MUST perform IPv6 encapsulation and optionally insert an SRH [RFC8754] when required; second, it indicates the value of the Service SID(s) to be used in the encapsulation. Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 13] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 The SRv6 Service SID SHOULD be routable within the AS of the egress PE and serves the dual purpose of providing reachability between ingress PE and egress PE while also encoding the SRv6 Endpoint behavior. When steering for SRv6 services is based on shortest path forwarding (e.g., best-effort or IGP Flexible Algorithm [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo]) to the egress PE, the ingress PE encapsulates the payload in an outer IPv6 header where the destination address is the SRv6 Service SID associated with the related BGP route update. Therefore, the ingress PE SHOULD perform resolvability check for the SRv6 Service SID before considering the received prefix for the BGP best path computation. The result of an SRv6 Service SID resolvability (e.g., when provided via IGP Flexible Algorithm) can be ignored if the ingress PE has a local policy that allows an alternate steering mechanism to reach the egress PE. The details of such steering mechanisms are outside the scope of this document. For service over SRv6 core, the egress PE sets the next-hop to one of its IPv6 addresses. Such an address MAY be covered by the SRv6 Locator from which the SRv6 Service SID is allocated. The next-hop is used for tracking the reachability of the egress PE based on existing BGP procedures. When the BGP route is received at an ingress PE is colored with a Color Extended community and a valid SRv6 Policy is available, the steering for service flows is performed as described in Section 8 of [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing-policy]. When the ingress PE determines (with the help of SRv6 SID Structure) that the Service SID belongs to the same SRv6 Locator as the last SRv6 SID (of the egress PE) in the SR Policy segment list, it MAY exclude that last SRv6 SID when steering the service flow. For example, the effective segment list of the SRv6 Policy associated with SID list would be . 6.1. Ethernet Auto-discovery Route over SRv6 Core Ethernet Auto-Discovery (A-D) routes are Route Type 1 defined in [RFC7432] and may be used to achieve split-horizon filtering, fast convergence, and aliasing. EVPN Route Type 1 is also used in EVPN- VPWS as well as in EVPN flexible cross-connect; mainly used to advertise point-to-point services ID. As a reminder, EVPN Route Type 1 is encoded as follows: Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 14] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 +---------------------------------------+ | RD (8 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ |Ethernet Segment Identifier (10 octets)| +---------------------------------------+ | Ethernet Tag ID (4 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | MPLS label (3 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ 6.1.1. Ethernet A-D per ES Route Ethernet A-D per ES route NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is as per [RFC7432]. The 24-bit ESI label field of the ESI label extended community carries the whole or a portion of the Argument part of the SRv6 SID when the ESI filtering approach is used along with the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Argument Length. A Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L2 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the A-D route. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the Service SID thus signaled is entirely up to the originator of the advertisement. When the ESI filtering approach is used, the Service SID is used to signal Arg.FE2 SID Argument for applicable End.DT2M behavior [RFC8986]. When the local- bias approach [RFC8365] is used, the Service SID MAY be of value 0. 6.1.2. Ethernet A-D per EVI Route Ethernet A-D per EVI route NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is similar to [RFC7432] and [RFC8214] with the following change: o MPLS Label: 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. A Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L2 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the A-D route. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the Service SID thus signaled is entirely Dawra, et al.

In practice, the SRv6 Endpoint behavior is END.DX2, END.DX2V or END.DT2U. 6.2. MAC/IP Advertisement Route over SRv6 Core EVPN Route Type 2 is used to advertise unicast traffic MAC+IP address reachability through MP-BGP to all other PEs in a given EVPN instance. As a reminder, EVPN Route Type 2 is encoded as follows: +---------------------------------------+ | RD (8 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ |Ethernet Segment Identifier (10 octets)| +---------------------------------------+ | Ethernet Tag ID (4 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | MAC Address Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | MAC Address (6 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Address Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Address (0, 4, or 16 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | MPLS Label1 (3 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | MPLS Label2 (0 or 3 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is similar to [RFC7432] with the following changes: o MPLS Label1: Is associated with the SRv6 L2 Service TLV. This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. o MPLS Label2: Is associated with the SRv6 L3 Service TLV. This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 16] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. Service SIDs enclosed in SRv6 L2 Service TLV and optionally in SRv6 L3 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the MAC/IP Advertisement route. Described below are different types of Route Type 2 advertisements. 6.2.1. MAC/IP Advertisement Route with MAC Only o MPLS Label1: Is associated with the SRv6 L2 Service TLV. This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. A Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L2 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the route. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the Service SID thus signaled is entirely up to the originator of the advertisement. In practice, the SRv6 Endpoint behavior is END.DX2 or END.DT2U. 6.2.2. MAC/IP Advertisement Route with MAC+IP o MPLS Label1: Is associated with the SRv6 L2 Service TLV. This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. o MPLS Label2: Is associated with the SRv6 L3 Service TLV. This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. An L2 Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L2 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the route. In addition, an L3 Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L3 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute MAY also be advertised along with the route. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the Service SID(s) thus Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 17] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 signaled is entirely up to the originator of the advertisement. In practice, the SRv6 Endpoint behavior is END.DX2 or END.DT2U for the L2 Service SID, and END.DT6/4 or END.DX6/4 for the L3 Service SID. 6.3. Inclusive Multicast Ethernet Tag Route over SRv6 Core EVPN Route Type 3 is used to advertise multicast traffic reachability information through MP-BGP to all other PEs in a given EVPN instance. As a reminder, EVPN Route Type 3 is encoded as follows: +---------------------------------------+ | RD (8 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | Ethernet Tag ID (4 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Address Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | Originating Router's IP Address | | (4 or 16 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is similar to [RFC7432]. PMSI Tunnel Attribute [RFC6514] is used to identify the P-tunnel used for sending broadcast, unknown unicast, or multicast (BUM) traffic. The format of PMSI Tunnel Attribute is encoded as follows over SRv6 Core: +---------------------------------------+ | Flag (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | Tunnel Type (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | MPLS label (3 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | Tunnel Identifier (variable) | +---------------------------------------+ o Flag: zero value defined per [RFC7432] o Tunnel Type: defined per [RFC6514] o MPLS label: This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when ingress replication is used and the Transposition Scheme of encoding (Section 4) is used and Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 18] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 otherwise, it is set as defined in [RFC6514]. When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. o Tunnel Identifier: IP address of egress PE A Service SID enclosed in an SRv6 L2 Service TLV within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute is advertised along with the route. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the Service SID thus signaled, is entirely up to the originator of the advertisement. In practice, the SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the SRv6 SID is as follows: o END.DT2M behavior. o When ESI-based filtering is used for Multi-Homing or E-Tree procedures, the ESI Filtering Argument (the Arg.FE2 notation introduced in [RFC8986]) of the Service SID carried along with EVPN Route Type 1 route SHOULD be merged with the applicable End.DT2M SID of Type 3 route advertised by remote PE by doing a bit-wise logical-OR operation to create a single SID on the ingress PE. Details of split-horizon ESI-based filtering mechanisms for multihoming are described in [RFC7432]. Details of filtering mechanisms for Leaf-originated BUM traffic in EVPN E-Tree services are provided in [RFC8317]. o When "local-bias" is used as the Multi-Homing split-horizon method, the ESI Filtering Argument SHOULD NOT be merged with the corresponding End.DT2M SID on the ingress PE. Details of the "local-bias" procedures are described in [RFC8365]. Usage of multicast trees as P-tunnels is outside the scope of this document. 6.4. Ethernet Segment Route over SRv6 Core As a reminder, an Ethernet Segment route (i.e., EVPN Route Type 4) is encoded as follows: Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 19] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 +---------------------------------------+ | RD (8 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | Ethernet Tag ID (4 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Address Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | Originating Router's IP Address | | (4 or 16 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is similar to [RFC7432]. SRv6 Service TLVs within the BGP Prefix-SID attribute are not advertised along with this route. The processing of the route has not changed - it remains as described in [RFC7432]. 6.5. IP Prefix Route over SRv6 Core EVPN Route Type 5 is used to advertise IP address reachability through MP-BGP to all other PEs in a given EVPN instance. The IP address may include a host IP prefix or any specific subnet. As a reminder, EVPN Route Type 5 is encoded as follows: +---------------------------------------+ | RD (8 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ |Ethernet Segment Identifier (10 octets)| +---------------------------------------+ | Ethernet Tag ID (4 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Prefix Length (1 octet) | +---------------------------------------+ | IP Prefix (4 or 16 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | GW IP Address (4 or 16 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ | MPLS Label (3 octets) | +---------------------------------------+ NLRI encoding over SRv6 core is similar to [RFC7432] with the following change: o MPLS Label: This 24-bit field carries the whole or a portion of the Function part of the SRv6 SID when the Transposition Scheme of Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 20] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 encoding (Section 4) is used and otherwise set to Implicit NULL value in the high order 20 bits (i.e., 0x000030). When using the Transposition Scheme, the Transposition Length MUST be less than or equal to 24 and less than or equal to the Function Length. SRv6 Service SID is encoded as part of the SRv6 L3 Service TLV. The SRv6 Endpoint behavior of the SRv6 SID is entirely up to the originator of the advertisement. In practice, the SRv6 Endpoint behavior is End.DT4/6 or End.DX4/6. 6.6. EVPN Multicast Routes (Route Types 6, 7, 8) over SRv6 Core These routes do not require the advertisement of SRv6 Service TLVs along with them. Similar to EVPN Route Type 4, the BGP Nexthop is equal to the IPv6 address of egress PE. 7. Implementation Status [Note to RFC Editor: This section needs to be removed before publication as RFC.] The [I-D.matsushima-spring-srv6-deployment-status] describes the current deployment and implementation status of SRv6 which also includes the BGP services over SRv6 as specified in this document. 8. Error Handling In case of any errors encountered while processing SRv6 Service TLVs, the details of the error SHOULD be logged for further analysis. If multiple instances of SRv6 L3 Service TLV is encountered, all but the first instance MUST be ignored. If multiple instances of SRv6 L2 Service TLV is encountered, all but the first instance MUST be ignored. An SRv6 Service TLV is considered malformed in the following cases: o the TLV Length is less than 1 o the TLV Length is inconsistent with the length of BGP Prefix-SID attribute o at least one of the constituent Sub-TLVs is malformed An SRv6 Service Sub-TLV is considered malformed in the following cases: Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 21] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 o the Sub-TLV Length is inconsistent with the length of the enclosing SRv6 Service TLV An SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLV is considered malformed in the following cases: * the Sub-TLV Length is less than 21 * the Sub-TLV Length is inconsistent with the length of the enclosing SRv6 Service TLV * at least one of the constituent Sub-Sub-TLVs is malformed An SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV is considered malformed in the following cases: o the Sub-Sub-TLV Length is inconsistent with the length of the enclosing SRv6 service Sub-TLV Any TLV or Sub-TLV or Sub-Sub-TLV is not considered malformed because its Type is unrecognized. Any TLV or Sub-TLV or Sub-Sub-TLV is not considered malformed because of failing any semantic validation of its Value field. SRv6 overlay service requires Service SID for forwarding. The treat- as-withdraw action [RFC7606] MUST be performed when at least one malformed SRV6 Service TLV is present in the BGP Prefix-SID attribute. SRv6 SID value in SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLV is invalid when SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV transposition length is greater than the number of bits of the label field or addition of transposition offset and length is greater than 128. The transposition offset and length MUST be 0 when the Sub-Sub-TLV is advertised along with routes where transposition scheme is not applicable (e.g., for Global IPv6 Service [RFC2545] where there is no label field). The path having such Prefix-SID Attribute should be ineligible during the selection of the best path for the corresponding prefix. 9. IANA Considerations Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 22] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 9.1. BGP Prefix-SID TLV Types Registry This document introduces two new TLV Types of the BGP Prefix-SID attribute. IANA has assigned Type values in the registry "BGP Prefix-SID TLV Types" as follows: Value Type Reference -------------------------------------------- 4 Deprecated 5 SRv6 L3 Service TLV 6 SRv6 L2 Service TLV The value 4 previously corresponded to the SRv6-VPN SID TLV, which was specified in previous versions of this document and used by early implementations of this specification. It was deprecated and replaced by the SRv6 L3 Service and SRv6 L2 Service TLVs. 9.2. SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Types Registry IANA is requested to create and maintain a new registry called "SRv6 Service Sub-TLV Types" under the "Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Parameters" registry. The allocation policy for this registry is: 0 : Reserved 1-127 : IETF Review 128-254 : First Come First Served 255 : Reserved The following Sub-TLV Type is defined in this document: Value Type Reference ---------------------------------------------------- 1 SRv6 SID Information Sub-TLV 9.3. SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV Types Registry IANA is requested to create and maintain a new registry called "SRv6 Service Data Sub-Sub-TLV Types" under the "Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Parameters" registry. The allocation policy for this registry is: 0 : Reserved 1-127 : IETF Review 128-254 : First Come First Served 255 : Reserved The following Sub-Sub-TLV Type is defined in this document: Dawra, et al. Expires May 14, 2022 [Page 23] Internet-Draft SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services November 2021 Value Type Reference ---------------------------------------------------- 1 SRv6 SID Structure Sub-Sub-TLV 9.4. BGP SRv6 Service SID Flags Registry IANA is requested to create and maintain a new registry called "BGP SRv6 Service SID Flags" under the "Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Parameters" registry. The allocation policy for this registry is IETF Review and all 8 bit positions of the flags are currently unassigned. 10. Security Considerations This document specifies extensions to BGP protocol for signaling of services for SRv6. As such, techniques related to authentication of BGP sessions for securing messages between BGP peers as discussed in the BGP specification [RFC4271] and, in the security analysis for BGP [RFC4272] apply. The discussion of the use of the TCP Authentication option to protect BGP sessions is found in [RFC5925], while [RFC6952] includes an analysis of BGP keying and authentication issues. This document does not introduce new services or BGP NLRI types but extends the signaling of existing ones for SRv6. Therefore, the security considerations for the respective BGP services [RFC8950] [RFC4659] [RFC2545] [RFC7432] [RFC9136] also apply. SRv6 operates within a trusted SR domain with filtering of traffic at the domain boundaries. These and other security aspects of SRv6 are discussed in the security considerations of [RFC8402] [RFC8754] and apply for the deployment of BGP services using SRv6. The SRv6 SIDs used for the BGP Services in this document are defined in [RFC8986] and hence the security considerations of that document also apply. The service flows between PE routers using SRv6 SIDs advertised via BGP are expected to be limited within the trusted SR domain (e.g., within a single AS or between multiple ASes within a single provider network). Therefore, precaution is necessary to ensure that the BGP service information (including associated SRv6 SID) advertised via BGP sessions are limited to peers within this trusted SR domain. The security consideration section of [RFC8669] discusses mechanisms to prevent leaking of BGP Prefix-SID attribute, that carries SRv6 SID, outside the SR domain. If these filtering mechanisms, both in the forwarding and control plane, are not implemented properly, it may be possible for nodes outside the SR domain to learn the VPN Service SIDs and use them to direct traffic into VPN networks from outside the SR domain.
