Lin Google May 18, 2018 Advertising Segment Routing Policies in BGP draft-ietf-idr-segment-routing-te-policy-03 Abstract This document defines a new BGP SAFI with a new NLRI in order to advertise a candidate path of a Segment Routing Policy (SR Policy). An SR Policy is a set of candidate paths consisting of one or more segment lists. The headend of an SR Policy may learn multiple candidate paths for an SR Policy. Candidate paths may be learned via a number of different mechanisms, e.g., CLI, NetConf, PCEP, or BGP. This document specifies the way in which BGP may be used to distribute candidate paths. New sub-TLVs for the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute are defined. Status of This Memo This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

Introduction Segment Routing (SR) allows a headend node to steer a packet flow along any path. Intermediate per-flow states are eliminated thanks to source routing [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. The headend node is said to steer a flow into a Segment Routing Policy (SR Policy). The header of a packet steered in an SR Policy is augmented with the ordered list of segments associated with that SR Policy. [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy] details the concepts of SR Policy and steering into an SR Policy. These apply equally to the MPLS and SRv6 instantiations of segment routing. As highlighted in section 2 of [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]: o an SR policy may have multiple candidate paths learned via various mechanisms (CLI, NetConf, PCEP or BGP); o the SRTE process selects the best candidate path for a Policy; o the SRTE process binds a BSID to the selected path of the Policy; o the SRTE process installs the selected path and its BSID in the forwarding plane. This document specifies the way to use BGP to distribute one or more of the candidate paths of an SR policy to the headend of that policy. The SRTE process ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]) of the headend receives candidate paths from BGP, and possibly other sources as well, and the SRTE process then determines the selected path of the policy. This document specifies a way of representing SR policies and their candidate paths in BGP UPDATE messages. BGP can then be used to Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 propagate the SR policies and candidate paths. The usual BGP rules for BGP propagation and "bestpath selection" are used. At the headend of a specific policy, this will result in one or more candidate paths being installed into the "BGP table". These paths are then passed to the SRTE process. The SRTE process may compare them to candidate paths learned via other mechanisms, and will choose one or more paths to be installed in the data plane. BGP itself does not install SRTE candidate paths into the data plane. This document defines a new BGP address family (SAFI). In UPDATE messages of that address family, the NLRI identifies an SR policy, and the attributes specify candidate paths of that policy. While for simplicity we may write that BGP advertises an SR Policy, it has to be understood that BGP advertises a candidate path of an SR policy and that this SR Policy might have several other candidate paths provided via BGP (via an NLRI with a different distinguisher as defined in this document), PCEP, NETCONF or local policy configuration. Typically, a controller defines the set of policies and advertise them to policy head-end routers (typically ingress routers). The policy advertisement uses BGP extensions defined in this document. The policy advertisement is, in most but not all of the cases, tailored for a specific policy head-end. In this case the advertisement may sent on a BGP session to that head-end and not propagated any further. Alternatively, a router (i.e., a BGP egress router) advertises SR Policies representing paths to itself. In this case, it is possible to send the policy to each head-end over a BGP session to that head- end, without requiring any further propagation of the policy. An SR Policy intended only for the receiver will, in most cases, not traverse any Route Reflector (RR, [RFC4456]). In some situations, it is undesirable for a controller or BGP egress router to have a BGP session to each policy head-end. In these situations, BGP Route Reflectors may be used to propagate the advertisements, or it may be necessary for the advertisement to propagate through a sequence of one or more ASes. To make this possible, an attribute needs to be attached to the advertisement that enables a BGP speaker to determine whether it is intended to be a head-end for the advertised policy. This is done by attaching one or more Route Target Extended Communities to the advertisement ([RFC4360]). Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 The BGP extensions for the advertisement of SR Policies include following components: o A new Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI) whose NLRI identifies an SR Policy. o A set of new TLVs to be inserted into the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute (as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps]) specifying candidate paths of the SR policy, as well as other information about the SR policy. o One or more IPv4 address format route-target extended community ([RFC4360]) attached to the SR Policy advertisement and that indicates the intended head-end of such SR Policy advertisement. o The Color Extended Community (as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps]) and used in order to steer traffic into an SR Policy, as described in section 8.4 in [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]. This document (Section 3) modifies the format of the Color Extended Community by using the two leftmost bits of the RESERVED field. 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. SR TE Policy Encoding 2.1. SR TE Policy SAFI and NLRI A new SAFI is defined: the SR Policy SAFI, (codepoint 73 assigned by IANA (see Section 8) from the "Subsequent Address Family Identifiers (SAFI) Parameters" registry). The SR Policy SAFI uses a new NLRI defined as follows: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 +------------------+ | NLRI Length | 1 octet +------------------+ | Distinguisher | 4 octets +------------------+ | Policy Color | 4 octets +------------------+ | Endpoint | 4 or 16 octets +------------------+ where: o NLRI Length: 1 octet of length expressed in bits as defined in [RFC4760]. o Distinguisher: 4-octet value uniquely identifying the policy in the context of tuple. The distinguisher has no semantic value and is solely used by the SR Policy originator to make unique (from an NLRI perspective) multiple occurrences of the same SR Policy. o Policy Color: 4-octet value identifying (with the endpoint) the policy. The color is used to match the color of the destination prefixes to steer traffic into the SR Policy [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]. o Endpoint: identifies the endpoint of a policy. The Endpoint may represent a single node or a set of nodes (e.g., an anycast address). The Endpoint is an IPv4 (4-octet) address or an IPv6 (16-octet) address according to the AFI of the NLRI. The color and endpoint are used to automate the steering of BGP Payload prefixes on SR policy ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The NLRI containing the SR Policy is carried in a BGP UPDATE message [RFC4271] using BGP multiprotocol extensions [RFC4760] with an AFI of 1 or 2 (IPv4 or IPv6) and with a SAFI of 73 (assigned by IANA from the "Subsequent Address Family Identifiers (SAFI) Parameters" registry). An update message that carries the MP_REACH_NLRI or MP_UNREACH_NLRI attribute with the SR Policy SAFI MUST also carry the BGP mandatory attributes. In addition, the BGP update message MAY also contain any of the BGP optional attributes. The next-hop network address field in SR Policy SAFI (73) updates may be either a 4 octet IPv4 address or a 16 octet IPv6 address, Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 independent of the SR Policy AFI. The length field of the next-hop address specifies the next-hop address family. If the next-hop length is 4, then the next-hop is an IPv4 address; if the next-hop length is 16, then it is a global IPv6 address; and if the next-hop length is 32, then it has a global IPv6 address followed by a link- local IPv6 address. The setting of the next-hop field and its attendant processing is governed by standard BGP procedures as described in section 3 in [RFC4760]. It is important to note that any BGP speaker receiving a BGP message with an SR Policy NLRI, will process it only if the NLRI is among the best paths as per the BGP best path selection algorithm. In other words, this document does not modify the BGP propagation or bestpath selection rules. It has to be noted that if several candidate paths of the same SR Policy (endpoint, color) are signaled via BGP to a head-end, it is recommended that each NLRI use a different distinguisher. If BGP has installed into the BGP table two advertisements whose respective NLRIs have the same color and endpoint, but different distinguishers, both advertisements are passed to the SRTE process as different candidate paths. In addition, the originator information corresponding to the each candidate path, as described in section 2.4 ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]), is passed to the SRTE process. 2.2. SR TE Policy and Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute The content of the SR Policy is encoded in the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute originally defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps] using a new Tunnel-Type TLV (codepoint is 15, assigned by IANA (see Section 8) from the "BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute Tunnel Types" registry). The SR Policy Encoding structure is as follows: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 SR Policy SAFI NLRI: Attributes: Tunnel Encaps Attribute (23) Tunnel Type: SR Policy Binding SID Preference Priority Policy Name Explicit NULL Label Policy (ENLP) Segment List Weight Segment Segment ... ... where: o SR Policy SAFI NLRI is defined in Section 2.1. o Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute is defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps]. o Tunnel-Type is set to 15 (assigned by IANA from the "BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute Tunnel Types" registry). o Preference, Binding SID, Priority, Policy Name, ENLP, Segment- List, Weight and Segment sub-TLVs are defined in this document. o Additional sub-TLVs may be defined in the future. A Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute MUST NOT contain more than one TLV of type "SR Policy". If more than one TLV of type "SR Policy" appears, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as- withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. Multiple occurrences of "Segment List" MAY be encoded within the same SR Policy. Multiple occurrences of "Segment" MAY be encoded within the same Segment List. 2.3. Remote Endpoint and Color The Remote Endpoint and Color sub-TLVs, as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps], MAY also be present in the SR Policy encodings. Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 8] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 The Remote Endpoint and Color Sub-TLVs are not used for SR Policy encodings and therefore their value is irrelevant in the context of the SR Policy SAFI NLRI. If present, the Remote Endpoint sub-TLV and the Color sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the BGP speaker. 2.4. SR TE Policy Sub-TLVs This section defines the SR Policy sub-TLVs. Preference, Binding SID, Segment-List, Priority, Policy Name and Explicit NULL Label Policy sub-TLVs are assigned from the "BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute Sub-TLVs" registry. Weight and Segment sub-TLVs are assigned from a new registry defined in this document and called: "SR Policy List Sub-TLVs". See Section 8 for the details of the registry. 2.4.1. Preference Sub-TLV The Preference sub-TLV does not have any effect on the BGP bestpath selection or propagation procedures. The contents of this sub-TLV are used by the SRTE process as described in section 2.9 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Preference sub-TLV is optional and it MUST NOT appear more than once in the SR Policy. If the Preference sub-TLV appears more than once, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as-withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. The Preference sub-TLV has following format: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Flags | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Preference (4 octets) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: o Type: 12 o Length: 6. o Flags: 1 octet of flags. None are defined at this stage. Flags SHOULD be set to zero on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 9] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 o RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits. SHOULD be unset on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. o Preference: a 4-octet value. 2.4.2. SR TE Binding SID Sub-TLV The Binding SID sub-TLV is not used by BGP. The contents of this sub-TLV are used by the SRTE process as described in section 6 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Binding SID sub-TLV is optional and it MUST NOT appear more than once in the SR Policy. If the Binding SID sub-TLV appears more than once, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as-withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. The Binding SID sub-TLV has the following format: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Flags | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Binding SID (variable, optional) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: o Type: 13 o Length: specifies the length of the value field not including Type and Length fields. Can be 2 or 6 or 18. o Flags: 1 octet of flags. Following flags are defined (to be assigned by IANA from the registry "SR Policy Binding SID Flags" defined in this document Section 8.5): 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |S|I| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: * S-Flag: This flag encodes the "Specified-BSID-only" behavior. It is used by SRTE process as described in section 6.2.3 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 10] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 * I-Flag: This flag encodes the "Drop Upon Invalid" behavior. It is used by SRTE process as described in section 8.2 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). * Unused bits in the Flag octet SHOULD be set to zero upon transmission and MUST be ignored upon receipt. o RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits. SHOULD be unset on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. o Binding SID: if length is 2, then no Binding SID is present. o If length is 6 then the Binding SID contains a 4-octet SID. Below format is used to encode the SID. TC, S, TTL(Total of 12bits) are RESERVED and SHOULD be set to Zero and MUST be ignored. 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Label | TC |S| TTL | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ If length is 18 then the Binding SID contains a 16-octet IPv6 SID. 2.4.3. Segment List Sub-TLV The Segment List sub-TLV encodes a single explicit path towards the endpoint as described in section 5.1 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Segment List sub-TLV includes the elements of the paths (i.e., segments) as well as an optional Weight sub-TLV. The Segment List sub-TLV may exceed 255 bytes length due to large number of segments. Therefore a 2-octet length is required. According to [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps], the first bit of the sub- TLV codepoint defines the size of the length field. Therefore, for the Segment List sub-TLV a code point of 128 (or higher) is used. See Section 8 for details of codepoints allocation. The Segment List sub-TLV is optional and MAY appear multiple times in the SR Policy. The ordering of Segment List sub-TLVs, each sub-TLV encoding a Segment List, does not matter. The Segment List sub-TLV contains zero or more Segment sub-TLVs and MAY contain a Weight sub-TLV. The Segment List sub-TLV has the following format: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 11] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // sub-TLVs // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: o Type: 128. o Length: the total length (not including the Type and Length fields) of the sub-TLVs encoded within the Segment List sub-TLV. o RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits. SHOULD be unset on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. o sub-TLVs: * An optional single Weight sub-TLV. * Zero or more Segment sub-TLVs. Validation of an explicit path encoded by the Segment List sub-TLV is completely within the scope of SRTE process as described in section 5 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). 2.4.3.1. Weight Sub-TLV The Weight sub-TLV specifies the weight associated to a given candidate path (i.e., a given segment list). The contents of this sub-TLV are used only by the SRTE process as described in section 2.11 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Weight sub-TLV is optional and it MUST NOT appear more than once inside the Segment List sub-TLV. If the Weight sub-TLV appears more than once, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as- withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. The Weight sub-TLV has the following format: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 12] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Flags | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Weight | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Type: 9 (to be assigned by IANA from the registry "SR Policy List Sub-TLVs" defined in this document). Length: 6. Flags: 1 octet of flags. None are defined at this stage. Flags SHOULD be set to zero on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits. SHOULD be unset on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. 2.4.3.2. Segment Sub-TLV The Segment sub-TLV describes a single segment in a segment list (i.e., a single element of the explicit path). Multiple Segment sub- TLVs constitute an explicit path of the SR Policy. The Segment sub-TLV is optional and MAY appear multiple times in the Segment List sub-TLV. The Segment sub-TLV does not have any effect on the BGP bestpath selection or propagation procedures. The contents of this sub-TLV are used only by the SRTE process as described in section 4 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy] defines several types of Segments: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 13] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 Type 1: SID only, in the form of MPLS Label Type 2: SID only, in the form of IPv6 address Type 3: IPv4 Node Address with optional SID Type 4: IPv6 Node Address with optional SID for SR MPLS Type 5: IPv4 Address + index with optional SID Type 6: IPv4 Local and Remote addresses with optional SID Type 7: IPv6 Address + index for local and remote pair with optional SID for SR MPLS Type 8: IPv6 Local and Remote addresses with optional SID for SR MPLS Type 9: IPv6 Node Address with optional SID for SRv6 Type 10: IPv6 Address + index for local and remote pair with optional SID for SRv6 Type 11: IPv6 Local and Remote addresses for SRv6 2.4.3.2.1. Type 1: SID only, in the form of MPLS Label The Type-1 Segment Sub-TLV encodes a single SID in the form of an MPLS label. The format is as follows: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Flags | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Label | TC |S| TTL | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: o Type: 1 (to be assigned by IANA from the registry "SR Policy List Sub-TLVs" defined in this document). o Length is 6. o Flags: 1 octet of flags as defined in Section 2.4.3.2.12. o RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits. SHOULD be unset on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt. o Label: 20 bits of label value. o TC: 3 bits of traffic class. o S: 1 bit of bottom-of-stack. o TTL: 1 octet of TTL. The following applies to the Type-1 Segment sub-TLV: Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 14] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 o The S bit SHOULD be zero upon transmission, and MUST be ignored upon reception. o If the originator wants the receiver to choose the TC value, it sets the TC field to zero. o If the originator wants the receiver to choose the TTL value, it sets the TTL field to 255. o If the originator wants to recommend a value for these fields, it puts those values in the TC and/or TTL fields. o The receiver MAY override the originator's values for these fields. This would be determined by local policy at the receiver. One possible policy would be to override the fields only if the fields have the default values specified above. 2.4.3.2.2. Type 2: SID only, in the form of IPv6 address The Type-2 Segment Sub-TLV encodes a single SRv6 SID in the form of an IPv6 address. The format is as follows: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Flags | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // SRv6 SID (16 octets) // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: o Type: 2 (to be assigned by IANA from the registry "SR Policy List Sub-TLVs" defined in this document). o Length is 18. o Flags: 1 octet of flags as defined in Section 2.4.3.2.12. o RESERVED: 1 octet of reserved bits.

The policy signaled in this Sub-TLV MAY be overridden by local policy. 2.4.5. Policy Priority Sub-TLV An operator MAY set the Policy Priority sub-TLV to indicate the order in which the SR policies are re-computed upon topological change. The Priority sub-TLV does not have any effect on the BGP bestpath selection or propagation procedures. The contents of this sub-TLV are used by the SRTE process as described in section 2.11 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Priority sub-TLV is optional and it MUST not appear more than once in the SR Policy TLV. If the Priority sub-TLV appears more than once, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as-withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied.

Policy Name Sub-TLV An operator MAY set the Policy Name sub-TLV to attach a symbolic name to the SR Policy candidate path. Usage of Policy Name sub-TLV is described in section 2 in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). The Policy Name sub-TLV may exceed 255 bytes length due to long policy name. Therefore a 2-octet length is required. According to [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps], the first bit of the sub-TLV codepoint defines the size of the length field. Therefore, for the Policy Name sub-TLV a code point of 128 (or higher) is used. See Section 8 for details of codepoints allocation. The Policy Name sub-TLV is optional and it MUST not appear more than once in the SR Policy TLV. If the Policy Name sub-TLV appears more than once, the update is considered malformed and the "treat-as- withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. The Policy Name sub-TLV has following format: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // Policy Name // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Previdi, et al.

It SHOULD be a string of printable ASCII characters, without a NULL terminator. 3. Extended Color Community The Color Extended Community as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps] is used to steer traffic into a policy. When the Color Extended Community is used for the purpose of steering the traffic into an SRTE policy, the RESERVED field (as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps] is changed as follows: 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |C O| RESERVED | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where CO bits are defined as the "Color-Only" bits. [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]defines the influence of these bits on the automated steering of BGP Payload traffic onto SRTE policies. 4. SR Policy Operations As described in this document, the consumer of a SR Policy NLRI is not the BGP process. The BGP process is in charge of the origination and propagation of the SR Policy NLRI but its installation and use is outside the scope of BGP ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). 4.1. Configuration and Advertisement of SR TE Policies Typically, but not limited to, an SR Policy is configured into a controller. Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 30] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 Multiple SR Policy NLRIs may be present with the same tuple but with different content when these SR policies are intended to different head-ends. The distinguisher of each SR Policy NLRI prevents undesired BGP route selection among these SR Policy NLRIs and allow their propagation across route reflectors [RFC4456]. Moreover, one or more route-target SHOULD be attached to the advertisement, where each route-target identifies one or more intended head-ends for the advertised SR policy. If no route-target is attached to the SR Policy NLRI, then it is assumed that the originator sends the SR Policy update directly (e.g., through a BGP session) to the intended receiver. In such case, the NO_ADVERTISE community MUST be attached to the SR Policy update. 4.2. Reception of an SR Policy NLRI On reception of an SR Policy NLRI, a BGP speaker MUST determine if it's first acceptable, then it determines if it is usable. 4.2.1. Acceptance of an SR Policy NLRI When a BGP speaker receives an SR Policy NLRI from a neighbor it has to determine if it's acceptable. The following applies: o The SR Policy NLRI MUST include a distinguisher, color and endpoint field which implies that the length of the NLRI MUST be either 12 or 24 octets (depending on the address family of the endpoint). o The SR Policy update MUST have either the NO_ADVERTISE community or at least one route-target extended community in IPv4-address format. If a router supporting this document receives an SR policy update with no route-target extended communities and no NO_ADVERTISE community, the update MUST NOT be sent to the SRTE process. Furthermore, it SHOULD be considered to be malformed, and the "treat-as-withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. o The Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute MUST be attached to the BGP Update and MUST have a Tunnel Type TLV set to SR Policy ( codepoint is 15, assigned by IANA (see Section 8) from the "BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute Tunnel Types" registry). A router that receives an SR Policy update that is not valid according to these criteria MUST treat the update as malformed. The Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 31] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 route MUST NOT be passed to the SRTE process, and the "treat-as- withdraw" strategy of [RFC7606] is applied. A unacceptable SR Policy update that has a valid NLRI portion with invalid attribute portion MUST be considered as a withdraw of the SR Policy. 4.2.2. Usable SR Policy NLRI If one or more route-targets are present, then at least one route- target MUST match one of the BGP Identifiers of the receiver in order for the update to be considered usable. The BGP Identifier is defined in [RFC4271] as a 4 octet IPv4 address. Therefore the route- target extended community MUST be of the same format. If one or more route-targets are present and no one matches any of the local BGP Identifiers, then, while the SR Policy NLRI is acceptable, it is not usable. It has to be noted that if the receiver has been explicitly configured to do so, it MAY propagate the SR Policy NLRI to its neighbors as defined in Section 4.2.4. Usable SR Policy NLRIs are sent to the Segment Routing Traffic Engineering (SRTE) process. The description of the SRTE process is outside the scope of this document and it's described in [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]. 4.2.3. Passing a usable SR Policy NLRI to the SRTE Process Once BGP has determined that the SR Policy NLRI is usable, BGP passes the path to the SRTE process described in ([I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]). Note that, along with the path details, BGP also passes the originator information for breaking ties in the path-selection process as described in section 2.4 in [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy]. The SRTE process applies the rules defined in section 2 [I-D.filsfils-spring-segment-routing-policy] to determine whether a path is valid and to select the best path among the valid paths. 4.2.4. Propagation of an SR Policy By default, a BGP node receiving an SR Policy NLRI MUST NOT propagate it to any EBGP neighbor. However, a node MAY be explicitly configured to advertise a received SR Policy NLRI to neighbors according to normal BGP rules (i.e., EBGP propagation by an ASBR or iBGP propagation by a Route-Reflector). Previdi, et al. Expires November 19, 2018 [Page 32] Internet-Draft Segment Routing Policies in BGP May 2018 SR Policy NLRIs that have been determined acceptable and valid can be propagated, even the ones that are not usable. Only SR Policy NLRIs that do not have the NO_ADVERTISE community attached to them can be propagated. 4.3. Flowspec and SR Policies The SR Policy can be carried in context of a Flowspec NLRI ([RFC5575]). In this case, when the redirect to IP next-hop is specified as in [I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-redirect-ip], the tunnel to the next-hop is specified by the segment list in the Segment List sub-TLVs. The Segment List (e.g., label stack or IPv6 segment list) is imposed to flows matching the criteria in the Flowspec route to steer them towards the next-hop as specified in the SR Policy SAFI NLRI. 5.

Implementation Status Note to RFC Editor: Please remove this section prior to publication, as well as the reference to RFC 7942. This section records the status of known implementations of the protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in [RFC7942]. The description of implementations in this section is intended to assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort has been spent to verify the information presented here that was supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may exist. According to [RFC7942], "this will allow reviewers and working groups to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature. It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as they see fit". Several early implementations exist and will be reported in detail in a forthcoming version of this document. For purposes of early interoperability testing, when no FCFS code point was available, implementations have made use of the following values: o Preference sub-TLV: 12 o Binding SID sub-TLV: 13 o Segment List sub-TLV: 128 When IANA-assigned values are available, implementations will be updated to use them.
