1. Introduction
A dedicated Routing Extension Header, called Segment Routing Header
(SRH), is defined in [RFC8754] for use of Segment Routing (SR) over
IPv6 data plane.
Also, three routing protocol extensions, OSPFv3
[I-D.li-lsr-ospfv3-srv6-extensions], IS-IS
[I-D.ietf-lsr-isis-srv6-extensions], and BGP Prefix Segment
Graf, et al. Expires 27 March 2023 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft IPFIX Segment Routing over IPv6 September 2022
Identifiers (Prefix-SIDs) [I-D.ietf-bess-srv6-services] and one Path
Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) Extension
[I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6] are defined to propagate Segment
Identifiers (SIDs).
SRv6 segment endpoint behaviors are defined in [RFC8986] and describe
how packets should be processed by intermediate nodes.
This document specifies eleven new IPFIX Information Elements (IEs)
and three new subregistries within the "IPFIX Information Elements"
registry [RFC7012], for SRv6 purposes.
These IEs are used to export SRv6 active segment and its control
plane protocol, the SRv6 segment list, the next SRv6 node and its
type, and then numbers of SRv6 segments left.
Some examples are provided in Appendix A.
2. Terminology
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.
This document makes use of the terms defined in [RFC7011] and
[RFC8402].
3. IPFIX Information Elements
This section specifies the new SRv6 IPFIX IEs.
srhFlagsIPv6
8-bit flags defined in the SRH (Section 2 of [RFC8754]).
srhTagIPv6
16-bit tag field defined in the SRH (Section 2 of [RFC8754]). A
tag is used that to mark a packet as part of a class or group of
packets sharing the same set of properties.
srhSegmentIPv6
128-bit IPv6 address that represents an SRv6 segment.
srhActiveSegmentIPv6
128-bit IPv6 address that represents the active SRv6 segment.
Graf, et al. Expires 27 March 2023 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft IPFIX Segment Routing over IPv6 September 2022
srhSegmentIPv6BasicList
Ordered basicList [RFC6313] of zero or more 128-bit IPv6 addresses
in the SRH that represents the SRv6 segment list. As specified in
Section 2 of [RFC8754], the Segment List is encoded starting from
the last segment of the SR Policy. That is, the first element of
the Segment List (Segment List[0]) contains the last segment of
the SR Policy, the second element contains the penultimate segment
of the SR Policy, and so on.
srhSegmentIPv6ListSection
Exposes the SRH Segment List as defined in Section 2 of [RFC8754]
as series of n octets in IPFIX.
srhSegmentIPv6sLeft
8-bit unsigned integer defining the number of segments remaining
to reach the end of the segment list.
srhSectionIPv6
Exposes the SRH and its TLVs as specified in Section 2 of
[RFC8754] as series of n octets in IPFIX.
srhActiveSegmentIPv6Type
Name of the routing protocol or PCEP extension from where the
active SRv6 segment has been learned from.
srhSegmentLocatorLength
The number of significant bits. Together with srhSegmentIPv6 it
enables the calculation of the SRv6 Locator.
srhSegmentEndpointBehavior
16-bit unsigned integer that represents a SRv6 Endpoint behavior
as per Section 4 of [RFC8986].
Note that the srhSegmentIPv6, srhSegmentLocatorLength, and
srhSegmentEndpointBehavior IPFIX IEs are generic fields, to be used
in the context of IPFIX Options Templates or IPFIX Structured Data
[RFC6313].
4. Sample Use Cases
The IPFIX IEs srhSegmentIPv6BasicList(TBD5) or
srhSegmentIPv6ListSection (TBD6), srhActiveSegmentIPv6 (TBD4),
srhSegmentIPv6sLeft (TBD7), srhActiveSegmentIPv6Type(TBD9),
forwardingStatus(89) [RFC7270] [IANA-IPFIX], and some existing
counters information [IANA-IPFIX] allows to provide answers to the
following (amongst others):
* How many packets are forwarded or dropped using SRv6 in a network?
Graf, et al. Expires 27 March 2023 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft IPFIX Segment Routing over IPv6 September 2022
* If dropped, for which reasons?
* What is the current active segment and its associated control
plane protocol?
* What is the SRv6 segment list?
* What is the next SRv6 node and its type?
* How many SRv6 segments are left?
5. IANA Considerations
This document requests IANA to create new IEs (see table 1) and three
new subregistries called "IPFIX IPv6 SRH Flags" (table 2), "IPFIX
IPv6 SRH Segment Type" (table 3), and "IPFIX SRv6 Endpoint Behavior"
(table 4) under the "IPFIX Information Elements" registry [RFC7012]
available at [IANA-IPFIX].

6. Operational Considerations
6.1. SRv6 Segment List
The zero or more 128-bit IPv6 addresses in the SRH [RFC8754] can be
exported in two different ways, with two different IPFIX IEs:
* srhSegmentIPv6BasicList
* srhSegmentIPv6ListSection
Graf, et al. Expires 27 March 2023 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft IPFIX Segment Routing over IPv6 September 2022
The srhSegmentIPv6BasicList encodes the SID list of IPv6 addresses
with a basicList, specified in the IPFIX Structured Data [RFC6313].
This encoding offers the advantage to the data collection that the
different IPv6 addresses are already structured as a list, without
the need of post processing. However, this method requires some
extra processing on the exporter, to realize the BasicList data
mapping.
The srhSegmentIPv6ListSection, on the other hand, encodes the list of
IPv6 addresses as an octetArray. This doesn't impose any data flow
manipulation on the exporter, facilitating the immediate export.
However, the data collection MUST be able to decode the IPv6
addresses according the SR specifications. Compared to the
srhSegmentIPv6BasicList, the srhSegmentIPv6ListSection flow records
length is slightly reduced.
It is not expected that an exporter would support both
srhSegmentIPv6BasicList and srhSegmentIPv6ListSection at the same
time.
6.2. Compressed SRv6 Segment List Decomposition
The SRv6 segment list in the IPFIX IEs srhSegmentIPv6BasicList and
srhSegmentIPv6ListSection could contain compressed-SID containers as
described in [I-D.ietf-spring-srv6-srh-compression]. The SID
endpoint behaviors described in section 4 of
[I-D.ietf-spring-srv6-srh-compression] determine wherever the segment
list is compressed or not. The SID Locator as described in section
3.1 [RFC8986], determines the common most significant bits.
6.3. Multiple Segment Routing Headers
[RFC8200] describes the support of multiple extension headers in one
IPv6 packet. Allowing the use of multiple SRH per SRv6 packet. The
export of the same IE multiple times in one data-record and data-
template is supported and the order within the packet SHOULD be
preserved in the IPFIX export according to Section 8 of [RFC7011].
If the network node is not capable to export IPFIX for more than one
SRH, it MUST export IPFIX for the active SRH.
7. Security Considerations
There exists no significant extra security considerations regarding
the allocation of these new IPFIX IEs compared to [RFC7012].

introduced IEs, for the example values in Table 5. The three
different encodings use the following IEs, respectively:
srhSegmentIPv6BasicList, srhSegmentIPv6ListSection, and
srhSectionIPv6.

with the following IEs: "=>" is used to indicate which IE is mapped
to a given information.

Figure 1: Template Record with Basic List Encoding Format
In this example, the Template ID is 256, which will be used in the
Data Record. The field length for srhSegmentIPv6BasicList is 0xFFFF,
which means the length of this IE is variable, and the actual length
of this IE is indicated by the List Length field in the basicList
format as per [RFC6313].
The data set is represented as follows:
