Introduction Segment Routing (SR) allows for a flexible definition of end-to-end paths within IGP topologies by encoding paths as sequences of topological sub-paths, called "segments". These segments are advertised by the link-state routing protocols (IS-IS and OSPF). Two types of segments are defined, Prefix segments and Adjacency segments. Prefix segments represent an ecmp-aware shortest-path to a prefix, as per the state of the IGP topology. Adjacency segments represent a hop over a specific adjacency between two nodes in the IGP. A prefix segment is typically a multi-hop path while an adjacency segment, in most of the cases, is a one-hop path. SR's control-plane can be applied to both IPv6 and MPLS data-planes, and do not require any additional signaling (other than the regular IGP). For example, when used in MPLS networks, SR paths do not require any LDP or RSVP-TE signaling. Still, SR can interoperate in the presence of LSPs established with RSVP or LDP. This draft describes the necessary IS-IS extensions that need to be introduced for Segment Routing. Segment Routing architecture is described in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. Segment Routing use cases are described in [RFC7855]. 2. Segment Routing Identifiers Segment Routing architecture ([I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]) defines different types of Segment Identifiers (SID). This document Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 3] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 defines the IS-IS encodings for the IGP-Prefix-SID, the IGP- Adjacency-SID, the IGP-LAN-Adjacency-SID and the Binding-SID. 2.1. Prefix Segment Identifier (Prefix-SID Sub-TLV) A new IS-IS sub-TLV is defined: the Prefix Segment Identifier sub-TLV (Prefix-SID sub-TLV). The Prefix-SID sub-TLV carries the Segment Routing IGP-Prefix-SID as defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. The 'Prefix SID' MUST be unique within a given IGP domain (when the L-flag is not set). The 'Prefix SID' MUST carry an index (when the V-flag is not set) that determines the actual SID/label value inside the set of all advertised SID/label ranges of a given router. A receiving router uses the index to determine the actual SID/label value in order to construct forwarding state to a particular destination router. In many use-cases a 'stable transport' IP Address is overloaded as an identifier of a given node. Because the IP Prefixes may be re- advertised into other levels there may be some ambiguity (e.g. Originating router vs. L1L2 router) for which node a particular IP prefix serves as identifier. The Prefix-SID sub-TLV contains the necessary flags to disambiguate IP Prefix to node mappings. Furthermore if a given node has several 'stable transport' IP addresses there are flags to differentiate those among other IP Prefixes advertised from a given node. A Prefix-SID sub-TLV is associated to a prefix advertised by a node and MAY be present in any of the following TLVs: TLV-135 (IPv4) defined in [RFC5305]. TLV-235 (MT-IPv4) defined in [RFC5120]. TLV-236 (IPv6) defined in [RFC5308]. TLV-237 (MT-IPv6) defined in [RFC5120]. Binding-TLV defined in Section 2.4. When the IP Reachability TLV is propagated across level boundaries, the Prefix-SID sub-TLV SHOULD be kept. The Prefix-SID sub-TLV has the following format: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 4] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 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 | Algorithm | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SID/Index/Label (variable) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Type: TBD, suggested value 3 Length: variable. Flags: 1 octet field of following flags: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |R|N|P|E|V|L| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: R-Flag: Re-advertisement flag. If set, then the prefix to which this Prefix-SID is attached, has been propagated by the router either from another level (i.e.: from level-1 to level-2 or the opposite) or from redistribution (e.g.: from another protocol). N-Flag: Node-SID flag. If set, then the Prefix-SID refers to the router identified by the prefix. Typically, the N-Flag is set on Prefix-SIDs attached to a router loopback address. The N-Flag is set when the Prefix-SID is a Node-SID as described in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. P-Flag: no-PHP flag. If set, then the penultimate hop MUST NOT pop the Prefix-SID before delivering the packet to the node that advertised the Prefix-SID. E-Flag: Explicit-Null Flag. If set, any upstream neighbor of the Prefix-SID originator MUST replace the Prefix-SID with a Prefix-SID having an Explicit-NULL value (0 for IPv4 and 2 for IPv6) before forwarding the packet. V-Flag: Value flag. If set, then the Prefix-SID carries a value (instead of an index). By default the flag is UNSET. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 5] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 L-Flag: Local Flag. If set, then the value/index carried by the Prefix-SID has local significance. By default the flag is UNSET. Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when received. Algorithm: the router may use various algorithms when calculating reachability to other nodes or to prefixes attached to these nodes. Algorithms identifiers are defined in Section 3.2. Examples of these algorithms are metric based Shortest Path First (SPF), various sorts of Constrained SPF, etc. The algorithm field of the Prefix-SID contains the identifier of the algorithm the router has used in order to compute the reachability of the prefix the Prefix-SID is associated to. At origination, the Prefix-SID algorithm field MUST be set to 0 on all Prefix-SID of prefixes computed using SPF algorithm (Shortest Path First). On reception of the Prefix-SID sub-TLV, any non-zero algorithm value MUST match what advertised in the SR-Algorithm sub-TLV (Section 3.2). A router receiving a Prefix-SID from a remote node and with an algorithm value that such remote node has not advertised in the SR-Algorithm sub-TLV (Section 3.2) MUST ignore the Prefix-SID sub- TLV. SID/Index/Label: according to the V and L flags, it contains either: * A 4 octet index defining the offset in the SID/Label space advertised by this router using the encodings defined in Section 3.1. In this case the V and L flags MUST be unset. * A 3 octet local label where the 20 rightmost bits are used for encoding the label value. In this case the V and L flags MUST be set. 2.1.1. Flags 2.1.1.1. R and N Flags The R-Flag MUST be set for prefixes that are not local to the router and either: advertised because of propagation (Level-1 into Level-2); advertised because of leaking (Level-2 into Level-1); Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 6] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 advertised because of redistribution (e.g.: from another protocol). In the case where a Level-1-2 router has local interface addresses configured in one level, it may also propagate these addresses into the other level. In such case, the Level-1-2 router MUST NOT set the R bit. The R-bit MUST be set only for prefixes that are not local to the router and advertised by the router because of propagation and/or leaking. The N-Flag is used in order to define a Node-SID. A router MAY set the N-Flag only if all of the following conditions are met: The prefix to which the Prefix-SID is attached is local to the router. I.e.: the prefix is configured on one of the local interfaces. (e.g.: 'stable transport' loopback). The prefix to which the Prefix-SID is attached MUST have a Prefix length of either /32 (IPv4) or /128 (IPv6). The router MUST ignore the N-Flag on a received Prefix-SID if the prefix has a Prefix length different than /32 (IPv4) or /128 (IPv6). [I-D.ietf-isis-prefix-attributes] also defines the N and R flags and with the same semantics of the equivalent flags defined in this document. There will be a transition period where both sets of flags will be used and eventually only the flags of the Prefix Attributes will remain. During the transition period implementations supporting the N and R flags defined in this document and the N and R flags defined in [I-D.ietf-isis-prefix-attributes] MUST advertise and parse all flags. In case the received flags have different values, the value of the flags defined in [I-D.ietf-isis-prefix-attributes] prevails. 2.1.1.2. E and P Flags When calculating the outgoing label for the prefix, the router MUST take into account E and P flags advertised by the next-hop router, if next-hop router advertised the SID for the prefix. This MUST be done regardless of next-hop router contributing to the best path to the prefix or not. When propagating (either from Level-1 to Level-2 or vice versa) a reachability advertisement originated by another IS-IS speaker, the router MUST set the P-flag and MUST clear the E-flag of the related Prefix-SIDs. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 7] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 The following behavior is associated with the settings of the E and P flags: o If the P-flag is not set then any upstream neighbor of the Prefix- SID originator MUST pop the Prefix-SID. This is equivalent to the penultimate hop popping mechanism used in the MPLS dataplane which improves performance of the ultimate hop. MPLS EXP bits of the Prefix-SID are not preserved to the ultimate hop (the Prefix-SID being removed). If the P-flag is unset the received E-flag is ignored. o If the P-flag is set then: * If the E-flag is not set then any upstream neighbor of the Prefix-SID originator MUST keep the Prefix-SID on top of the stack. This is useful when, e.g., the originator of the Prefix-SID must stitch the incoming packet into a continuing MPLS LSP to the final destination. This could occur at an inter-area border router (prefix propagation from one area to another) or at an inter-domain border router (prefix propagation from one domain to another). * If the E-flag is set then any upstream neighbor of the Prefix- SID originator MUST replace the PrefixSID with a Prefix-SID having an Explicit-NULL value. This is useful, e.g., when the originator of the Prefix-SID is the final destination for the related prefix and the originator wishes to receive the packet with the original EXP bits. 2.1.2. Prefix-SID Propagation The Prefix-SID sub-TLV MUST be preserved when the IP Reachability TLV gets propagated across level boundaries. The level-1-2 router that propagates the Prefix-SID sub-TLV between levels MUST set the R-flag. If the Prefix-SID contains a global index (L and V flags unset) and it is propagated as such (with L and V flags unset), the value of the index MUST be preserved when propagated between levels. The level-1-2 router that propagates the Prefix-SID sub-TLV between levels MAY change the setting of the L and V flags in case a local label value is encoded in the Prefix-SID instead of the received value. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 8] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 2.2. Adjacency Segment Identifier A new IS-IS sub-TLV is defined: the Adjacency Segment Identifier sub- TLV (Adj-SID sub-TLV). The Adj-SID sub-TLV is an optional sub-TLV carrying the Segment Routing IGP-Adjacency-SID as defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing] with flags and fields that may be used, in future extensions of Segment Routing, for carrying other types of SIDs. IS-IS adjacencies are advertised using one of the IS-Neighbor TLVs below: TLV-22 [RFC5305] TLV-222 [RFC5120] TLV-23 [RFC5311] TLV-223 [RFC5311] TLV-141 [RFC5316] Multiple Adj-SID sub-TLVs MAY be associated with a single IS- neighbor. 2.2.1. Adjacency Segment Identifier (Adj-SID) Sub-TLV The following format is defined for the Adj-SID sub-TLV: 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 | Weight | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SID/Label/Index (variable) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Type: TBD, suggested value 31 Length: variable. Flags: 1 octet field of following flags: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 9] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |F|B|V|L|S| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: F-Flag: Address-Family flag. If unset, then the Adj-SID refers to an adjacency with outgoing IPv4 encapsulation. If set then the Adj-SID refers to an adjacency with outgoing IPv6 encapsulation. B-Flag: Backup flag. If set, the Adj-SID is eligible for protection (e.g.: using IPFRR or MPLS-FRR) as described in [I-D.ietf-spring-resiliency-use-cases]. V-Flag: Value flag. If set, then the Adj-SID carries a value. By default the flag is SET. L-Flag: Local Flag. If set, then the value/index carried by the Adj-SID has local significance. By default the flag is SET. S-Flag. Set Flag. When set, the S-Flag indicates that the Adj-SID refers to a set of adjacencies (and therefore MAY be assigned to other adjacencies as well). Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when received. Weight: 1 octet. The value represents the weight of the Adj-SID for the purpose of load balancing. The use of the weight is defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. SID/Index/Label: according to the V and L flags, it contains either: * A 3 octet local label where the 20 rightmost bits are used for encoding the label value. In this case the V and L flags MUST be set. * A 4 octet index defining the offset in the SID/Label space advertised by this router using the encodings defined in Section 3.1. In this case V and L flags MUST be unset. * A 16 octet IPv6 address. In this case the V flag MUST be set. The L flag MUST be unset if the IPv6 address is globally unique. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 10] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 An SR capable router MAY allocate an Adj-SID for each of its adjacencies and SHOULD set the B-Flag when the adjacency is eligible for protection (IP or MPLS). An SR capable router MAY allocate more than one Adj-SID to an adjacency. An SR capable router MAY allocate the same Adj-SID to different adjacencies. Examples of use of the Adj-SID sub-TLV are described in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. and [I-D.ietf-6man-segment-routing-header]. The F-flag is used in order for the router to advertise the outgoing encapsulation of the adjacency the Adj-SID is attached to. 2.2.2. Adjacency Segment Identifiers in LANs In LAN subnetworks, the Designated Intermediate System (DIS) is elected and originates the Pseudonode-LSP (PN-LSP) including all neighbors of the DIS. When Segment Routing is used, each router in the LAN MAY advertise the Adj-SID of each of its neighbors. Since, on LANs, each router only advertises one adjacency to the DIS (and doesn't advertise any other adjacency), each router advertises the set of Adj-SIDs (for each of its neighbors) inside a newly defined sub-TLV part of the TLV advertising the adjacency to the DIS (e.g.: TLV-22). The following new sub-TLV is defined: LAN-Adj-SID (Type: TBD, suggested value 32) containing the set of Adj-SIDs the router assigned to each of its LAN neighbors. The format of the LAN-Adj-SID sub-TLV is as follows: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 11] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 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 | Weight | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | System-ID (6 octets) | + +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SID/Label/Index (variable) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Type: TBD, suggested value 32 Length: variable. Flags: 1 octet field of following flags: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |F|B|V|L|S| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where F, B, V, L and S flags are defined in Section 2.2.1. Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when received. Weight: 1 octet. The value represents the weight of the Adj-SID for the purpose of load balancing. The use of the weight is defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. System-ID: 6 octets of IS-IS System-ID of length "ID Length" as defined in [ISO10589]. SID/Index/Label: according to the V and L flags, it contains either: * A 3 octet local label where the 20 rightmost bits are used for encoding the label value. In this case the V and L flags MUST be set. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 12] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 * A 4 octet index defining the offset in the SID/Label space advertised by this router using the encodings defined in Section 3.1. In this case V and L flags MUST be unset. * A 16 octet IPv6 address. In this case the V flag MUST be set. The L flag MUST be unset if the IPv6 address is globally unique. Multiple LAN-Adj-SID sub-TLVs MAY be encoded. In case one TLV-22/23/222/223 (reporting the adjacency to the DIS) can't contain the whole set of LAN-Adj-SID sub-TLVs, multiple advertisements of the adjacency to the DIS MUST be used and all advertisements MUST have the same metric. Each router within the level, by receiving the DIS PN LSP as well as the non-PN LSP of each router in the LAN, is capable of reconstructing the LAN topology as well as the set of Adj-SID each router uses for each of its neighbors. A label is encoded in 3 octets (in the 20 rightmost bits). An index is encoded in 4 octets. An ipv6 address SID is encoded in 16 octets (IPv6 Adj-SID is defined in [I-D.ietf-6man-segment-routing-header]). 2.3. SID/Label Sub-TLV The SID/Label sub-TLV is present in the following sub-TLVs defined in this document: Binding TLV Section 2.4. SR Capability sub-TLV Section 3.1. The SID/Label sub-TLV contains a SID or a MPLS Label. The SID/Label 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SID/Label (variable) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 13] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 Type: TBD, suggested value 1 Length: variable SID/Label: if length is set to 3 then the 20 rightmost bits represent a MPLS label. 2.4. SID/Label Binding TLV The SID/Label Binding TLV MAY be originated by any router in an IS-IS domain. There are multiple uses of the SID/Label Binding TLV: o The router may advertise a SID/Label binding to a FEC along with at least a single 'nexthop style' anchor. The protocol supports more than one 'nexthop style' anchor to be attached to a SID/Label binding, which results into a simple path description language. In analogy to RSVP the terminology for this is called an 'Explicit Route Object' (ERO). Since ERO style path notation allows to anchor SID/label bindings to both link and node IP addresses any label switched path, can be described. Furthermore also SID/Label Bindings from external protocols can get easily re-advertised. o The SID/Label Binding TLV may be used for advertising SID/Label Bindings and their associated Primary and Backup paths. In one single TLV either a primary ERO Path, a backup ERO Path or both are advertised. If a router wants to advertise multiple parallel paths then it can generate several TLVs for the same Prefix/FEC. Each occurrence of a Binding TLV with respect with a given FEC Prefix has accumulating and not canceling semantics. Due the space constraints in the 8-Bit IS-IS TLVs an originating router MAY encode a primary ERO path in one SID/Label Binding TLV and the backup ERO path in a second SID/Label Binding TLV. Note that the FEC Prefix and SID/Label sub-TLV MUST be identical in both TLVs. o The SID/Label Binding TLV may also be used in order to advertise prefixes to SID/Label mappings. This functionality is called the 'Mapping Server' and it's used when, in a heterogeneous network, not all nodes are capable of advertising their own SIDs/Labels. When the SID/Label Binding TLV is used by the Mapping Server in order to advertise prefix to SID/label mappings, the index/label MUST include the Prefix-SID SubTLV (Section 2.1). The SID/Label Binding TLV has Type TBD (suggested value 149), and has the following format: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 14] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 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 | Weight | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Range | Prefix Length | FEC Prefix | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // FEC Prefix (continued, variable) // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | SubTLVs (variable) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 1: SID/Label Binding TLV format o Type: TBD, suggested value 149 o Length: variable. o 1 octet of flags o 1 octet of Weight o 2 octets of Range o 1 octet of Prefix Length o 0-16 octets of FEC Prefix o sub-TLVs, where each sub-TLV consists of a sequence of: * 1 octet of sub-TLV type * 1 octet of length of the value field of the sub-TLV * 0-243 octets of value 2.4.1.

Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 15] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 F-Flag: Address Family flag. If unset, then the Prefix FEC carries an IPv4 Prefix. If set then the Prefix FEC carries an IPv6 Prefix. M-Flag: Mirror Context flag. Set if the advertised SID/path corresponds to a mirrored context. The use of the M flag is described in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. S-Flag: If set, the SID/Label Binding TLV SHOULD be flooded across the entire routing domain. If the S flag is not set, the SID/ Label Binding TLV MUST NOT be leaked between levels. This bit MUST NOT be altered during the TLV leaking. D-Flag: when the SID/Label Binding TLV is leaked from level-2 to level-1, the D bit MUST be set. Otherwise, this bit MUST be clear. SID/Label Binding TLVs with the D bit set MUST NOT be leaked from level-1 to level-2. This is to prevent TLV looping across levels. A-Flag: Attached flag. The originator of the SID/Label Binding TLV MAY set the A bit in order to signal that the prefixes and SIDs advertised in the SID/Label Binding TLV are directly connected to their originators. The mechanisms through which the originator of the SID/Label Binding TLV can figure out if a prefix is attached or not are outside the scope of this document (e.g.: through explicit configuration). If the Binding TLV is leaked to other areas/levels the A-flag MUST be cleared. An implementation MAY decide not to honor the S-flag in order not to leak Binding TLV's between levels (for policy reasons). In all cases, the D flag MUST always be set by any router leaking the Binding TLV from level-2 into level-1 and MUST be checked when propagating the Binding TLV from level-1 into level-2. If the D flag is set, the Binding TLV MUST NOT be propagated into level-2. Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when received. 2.4.2. Weight Weight: 1 octet: The value represents the weight of the path for the purpose of load balancing. The use of the weight is defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-segment-routing]. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 16] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 2.4.3. Range The 'Range' field provides the ability to specify a range of addresses and their associated Prefix SIDs. This functionality is called "Mapping Server". It is essentially a compression scheme to distribute a continuous Prefix and their continuous, corresponding SID/Label Block. If a single SID is advertised then the range field MUST be set to one. For range advertisements > 1, the number of addresses that need to be mapped into a Prefix-SID and the starting value of the Prefix-SID range. Example 1: if the following router addresses (loopback addresses) need to be mapped into the corresponding Prefix SID indexes. Router-A: 192.0.2.1/32, Prefix-SID: Index 1 Router-B: 192.0.2.2/32, Prefix-SID: Index 2 Router-C: 192.0.2.3/32, Prefix-SID: Index 3 Router-D: 192.0.2.4/32, Prefix-SID: Index 4 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 |0|0| | Weight | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Range = 4 | /32 | 192 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | .0 | .2 | .1 |Prefix-SID Type| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | sub-TLV Length| Flags | Algorithm | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | 1 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Example-2: If the following prefixes need to be mapped into the corresponding Prefix-SID indexes: 10.1.1/24, Prefix-SID: Index 51 10.1.2/24, Prefix-SID: Index 52 10.1.3/24, Prefix-SID: Index 53 10.1.4/24, Prefix-SID: Index 54 10.1.5/24, Prefix-SID: Index 55 10.1.6/24, Prefix-SID: Index 56 10.1.7/24, Prefix-SID: Index 57 Previdi, et al.

In order to support noncontinuous mapping ranges an implementation MAY generate several instances of Binding TLVs. For example if a router wants to advertise the following ranges: Range 16: { 192.0.2.1-15, Index 1-15 } Range 6: { 192.0.2.22-27, Index 22-27 } Range 41: { 192.0.2.44-84, Index 80-120 } A router would need to advertise three instances of the Binding TLV. 2.4.4. Prefix Length, Prefix The 'FEC Prefix' represents the Forwarding equivalence class at the tail-end of the advertised path. The 'FEC Prefix' does not need to correspond to a routable prefix of the originating node. The 'Prefix Length' field contains the length of the prefix in bits. Only the most significant octets of the Prefix FEC are encoded. I.e. 1 octet for FEC prefix length 1 up to 8, 2 octets for FEC prefix length 9 to 16, 3 octets for FEC prefix length 17 up to 24 and 4 octets for FEC prefix length 25 up to 32, ...., 16 octets for FEC prefix length 113 up to 128. 2.4.5. Mapping Server Prefix-SID The Prefix-SID sub-TLV (suggested value 3) is defined in Section 2.1 and contains the SID/index/label value associated with the prefix and range. The Prefix-SID SubTLV MUST be used when the SID/Label Binding Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 18] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 TLV is used by the Mapping Server (i.e.: advertising one or a range of prefixes and their associated SIDs/Labels). A node receiving a MS entry for a prefix MUST check the existence of such prefix in its link-state database prior to consider and use the associated SID. For a given prefix, if both a MS entry with its Prefix-SID Sub-TLV and a Prefix TLV (e.g.: TLV135) with its Prefix-SID are received, the Prefix-SID advertised within the Prefix TLV MUST be preferred while the MS entry MUST be ignored. 2.4.5.1. Prefix-SID Flags The Prefix-SID flags are defined in Section 2.1. The Mapping Server MAY advertise a mapping with the N flag set when the prefix being mapped is known in the link-state topology with a mask length of 32 (IPv4) or 128 (IPv6) and when the prefix represents a node. The mechanisms through which the operator defines that a prefix represents a node are outside the scope of this document (typically it will be through configuration). The other flags defined in Section 2.1 are not used by the Mapping Server and MUST be ignored at reception. 2.4.5.2. PHP Behavior when using Mapping Server Advertisements As the mapping server does not specify the originator of a prefix advertisement it is not possible to determine PHP behavior solely based on the Mapping Server Advertisement. However, if additional information is available PHP behavior may safely be done. The required information consists of: o A prefix reachability advertisement for the prefix has been received which includes the Extended Reachability Attribute Flags sub-TLV ([I-D.ietf-isis-prefix-attributes]). o X and R flags are both set to 0 in the Extended Reachability Attribute Flags sub-TLV. In the absence of an Extended Reachability Attribute Flags sub-TLV ([I-D.ietf-isis-prefix-attributes]) the A flag in the binding TLV indicates that the originator of a prefix reachability advertisement is directly connected to the prefix and thus PHP MUST be done by the neighbors of the router originating the prefix reachability advertisement. Note that A-flag is only valid in the original area in which the Binding TLV is advertised. Previdi, et al.

Prefix-SID Algorithm The algorithm field contains the identifier of the algorithm the router MUST use in order to compute reachability to the range of prefixes. Use of the algorithm field is described in Section 2.1. 2.4.6. SID/Label Sub-TLV The SID/Label sub-TLV (Type: TBD, suggested value 1) contains the SID/Label value as defined in Section 2.3. It MAY be present in the SID/Label Binding TLV. 2.4.7. ERO Metric sub-TLV ERO Metric sub-TLV (Type: TBD, suggested value 10) is a sub-TLV of the SID/Label Binding TLV. The ERO Metric sub-TLV carries the cost of an ERO path. It is used to compare the cost of a given source/destination path. A router MAY advertise the ERO Metric sub-TLV. The cost of the ERO Metric sub-TLV SHOULD be set to the cumulative IGP or TE path cost of the advertised ERO. Since manipulation of the Metric field may attract or distract traffic from and to the advertised segment it MAY be manually overridden. 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 | Metric | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Metric (continued) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ERO Metric sub-TLV format where: Type: TBD, suggested value 10 Length: 4 Metric: 4 bytes 2.4.8.

Unnumbered Interface ID ERO subTLV The appearance and semantics of the 'Unnumbered Interface ID' have been borrowed from Section 4 [RFC3477]. The Unnumbered Interface-ID ERO subTLV (Type: TBD, suggested value 13) describes a path segment that spans over an unnumbered interface. Unnumbered interfaces are referenced using the interface index. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 21] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 Interface indices are assigned local to the router and therefore not unique within a domain.

The 'Router-ID' field contains the router ID of the router which has assigned the 'Interface ID' field. Its purpose is to disambiguate the 'Interface ID' field from other routers in the domain.

Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 25] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 3. Router Capabilities 3.1. SR-Capabilities Sub-TLV Segment Routing requires each router to advertise its SR data-plane capability and the range of MPLS label values it uses for Segment Routing in the case where global SIDs are allocated (i.e.: global indexes). Data-plane capabilities and label ranges are advertised using the newly defined SR-Capabilities sub-TLV inserted into the IS- IS Router Capability TLV-242 that is defined in [RFC4971]. The Router Capability TLV specifies flags that control its advertisement. The SR Capabilities sub-TLV MUST be propagated throughout the level and SHOULD NOT be advertised across level boundaries. Therefore Router Capability TLV distribution flags SHOULD be set accordingly, i.e.: the S flag in the Router Capability TLV ([RFC4971]) MUST be unset. The SR Capabilities 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Type: TBD, suggested value 2 Length: variable. Flags: 1 octet of flags. The following are defined: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |I|V|H| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: I-Flag: MPLS IPv4 flag. If set, then the router is capable of processing SR MPLS encapsulated IPv4 packets on all interfaces. V-Flag: MPLS IPv6 flag. If set, then the router is capable of processing SR MPLS encapsulated IPv6 packets on all interfaces. H-Flag: SR-IPv6 flag. If set, then the router is capable of processing the IPv6 Segment Routing Header on all interfaces as defined in [I-D.ietf-6man-segment-routing-header]. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 26] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 One or more SRGB Descriptor entries, each of which have the following format: Range: 3 octets. SID/Label sub-TLV (as defined in Section 2.3). SID/Label sub-TLV contains the first value of the SRGB while the range contains the number of SRGB elements. The range value MUST be higher than 0. The SR-Capabilities sub-TLV MAY be advertised in an LSP of any number but a router MUST NOT advertise more than one SR-Capabilities sub- TLV. When multiple SR-Capabilities sub-TLVs are received from a given router the behavior of the receiving system is undefined. When multiple SRGB Descriptors are advertised the entries define an ordered set of ranges on which a SID index is to be applied. For this reason changing the order in which the descriptors are advertised will have a disruptive effect on forwarding. When a router adds a new SRGB Descriptor to an existing SR- Capabilities sub-TLV the new Descriptor SHOULD add the newly configured block at the end of the sub-TLV and SHOULD NOT change the order of previously advertised blocks. Changing the order of the advertised descriptors will create label churn in the FIB and blackhole / misdirect some traffic during the IGP convergence. In particular, if a range which is not the last is extended it's preferable to add a new range rather than extending the previously advertised range. The originating router MUST ensure the order is same after a graceful restart (using checkpointing, non-volatile storage or any other mechanism) in order to guarantee the same order before and after GR. The originating router MUST NOT advertise overlapping ranges. When a router receives multiple overlapping ranges, it MUST conform to the procedures defined in [I-D.ietf-spring-conflict-resolution]. Here follows an example of advertisement of multiple ranges: Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 27] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 The originating router advertises following ranges: SR-Cap: range: 100, SID value: 100 SR-Cap: range: 100, SID value: 1000 SR-Cap: range: 100, SID value: 500 The receiving routers concatenate the ranges in the received order and build the SRGB as follows: SRGB = [100, 199] [1000, 1099] [500, 599] The indexes span multiple ranges: index=0 means label 100 ... index 99 means label 199 index 100 means label 1000 index 199 means label 1099 ... index 200 means label 500 ... 3.2. SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV The router may use various algorithms when calculating reachability to other nodes or to prefixes attached to these nodes. Examples of these algorithms are metric based Shortest Path First (SPF), various sorts of Constrained SPF, etc. The SR-Algorithm sub-TLV (Type: TBD, suggested value 19) allows the router to advertise the algorithms that the router is currently using. The following value has been defined: 0: Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm based on link metric. This is the well-known shortest path algorithm as computed by the IS-IS Decision process. Consistent with the deployed practice for link- state protocols, algorithm 0 permits any node to overwrite the SPF path with a different path based on local policy. 1: Strict Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm based on link metric. The algorithm is identical to algorithm 0 but algorithm 1 requires that all nodes along the path will honor the SPF routing decision. Local policy MUST NOT alter the forwarding decision computed by algorithm 1 at the node claiming to support algorithm 1. The SR-Algorithm sub-TLV is inserted into the IS-IS Router Capability TLV-242 that is defined in [RFC4971]. Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 28] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 The Router Capability TLV specifies flags that control its advertisement. The SR-Algorithm MUST be propagated throughout the level and need not to be advertised across level boundaries. Therefore Router Capability TLV distribution flags MUST be set accordingly, i.e.: the S flag MUST be unset. The SR-Algorithm sub-TLV is optional, it MAY only appear a single time inside the Router Capability TLV. When the originating router does not advertise the SR-Algorithm sub- TLV, then all the Prefix-SID advertised by the router MUST have algorithm field set to 0. Any receiving router MUST assume SPF algorithm (i.e.: Shortest Path First). When the originating router does advertise the SR-Algorithm sub-TLV, then algorithm 0 MUST be present while algorithm 1 MAY be present. The SR-Algorithm 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Algorithm 1 | Algorithm 2 | Algorithm ... | Algorithm n | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ where: Type: TBD, suggested value 19 Length: variable.

Non backward compatible changes with prior versions of this document This section describes the changes that have been applied to this document that are not backward compatible with previous versions. 4.1. Encoding of Multiple SRGBs Version -04 of this document introduced a change in Section 3.1 regarding the encoding method for multiple SRGBs in the SR-Cap SubTLV and made the support of multiple SRGBs REQUIRED. The modified method consists of having a single SR-Cap Sub-TLV where all SRGBs are encoded. In previous versions (prior to version -04) Previdi, et al. Expires December 15, 2016 [Page 29] Internet-Draft IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing June 2016 of this document it was allowed to have multiple occurrences of the SR-Cap Sub-TLV. At the time of writing this document, no existing implementations are affected by the change since no implementations actually (i.e.: at the time of updating this document) encode multiple SRGBs anyway. 5.
