Using Conditional Router Advertisements for Enterprise Multihoming
draft-ietf-v6ops-conditional-ras-02

Abstract

This document discusses most common scenarios of connecting an enterprise network to multiple ISPs using an address space assigned by an ISP. The problem of enterprise multihoming without address translation of any form has not been solved yet as it requires both the network to select the correct egress ISP based on the packet source address and hosts to select the correct source address based on the desired egress ISP for that traffic. [I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming] proposes a solution to this problem by introducing a new routing functionality (Source Address Dependent Routing) to solve the uplink selection issue and using Router Advertisements to influence the host source address selection. While the above-mentioned document focuses on solving the general problem and on covering various complex use cases, this document describes how the solution proposed in [I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming] can be adopted for limited number of common use cases. In particular, the focus is on scenarios where an enterprise network has two Internet uplinks used either in primary/backup mode or simultaneously and hosts in that network might not yet properly support multihoming as described in [RFC8028].

1. Introduction

Multihoming is an obvious requirement for many enterprise networks to ensure the desired level of network reliability. However, using more than one ISP (and address space assigned by those ISPs) introduces the problem of assigning IP addresses to hosts. In IPv4 there is no choice but using [RFC1918] address space and NAT ([RFC3022]) at the network edge. Using Provider Independent (PI) address space is not always an option as it requires running BGP between the enterprise network and the ISPs, not mentioning administrative overhead of obtaining and managing PI address space. As IPv6 host can, by design, have multiple addresses of the global scope, multihoming using provider address looks even easier for IPv6: each ISP assigns an IPv6 block (usually /48) and hosts in the enterprise network have addresses assigned from each ISP block. However using IPv6 PA blocks in multihoming scenario introduces some challenges, including but not limited to:

The document [I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming] discusses these and other related challenges in details in relation to the general multihoming scenario for enterprise networks. Unfortunately the proposed solution heavily relies on the rule 5.5 of the default address selection algorithm ([RFC6724]) which has not been widely implemented at the moment this document was written. Therefore network administrators in enterprise networks can't yet assume that all devices in their network support the rule 5.5, especially in the quite common BYOD ("Bring Your Own Device") scenario. However, while it does not seem feasible to solve all the possible multihoming scenarios without reliying on rule 5.5, it is possible to provide IPv6 multihoming using provider-assigned (PA) address space for the most common use cases. This document discusses how the general solution described in [I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming] can be applied to those two specific cases.

3.1. Solution Overview

3.1.1. Uplink Selection

As discussed in [I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming], one of the two main problems to be solved in the enterprise multihoming scenario is the problem of the next-hop (uplink) selection based on the packet source address. For example, if the enterprise network has two uplinks, to ISP_A and ISP_B, and hosts have addresses from subnet_A and subnet_B (belonging to ISP_A and ISP_B respectively) then packets sourced from subnet_A must be sent to ISP_A uplink while packets sourced from subnet_B must be sent to ISP_B uplink.

While some work is being done in the Source Address Dependent Routing (SADR) area, the simplest way to implement the desired functionality currently is to apply a policy which selects a next-hop or an egress interface based on the packet source address. Most of the SMB/Enterprise grade routers have such functionality available currently.

3.1.2. Source Address Selection and Conditional RAs

Another problem to be solved in the multihoming scenario is the source address selection on hosts. In the normal situation (all uplinks are up/operational) hosts have multiple global unique addresses and can rely on the default address selection algorithm ([RFC6724]) to pick up a source address, while the network is responsible for choosing the correct uplink based on the source address selected by a host as described in Section 3.1.2. However, some network topology changes (i.e. changing uplink status) might affect the global reachability for packets sourced from the particular prefixes and therefore such changes have to be signaled back to the hosts. For example:

[I-D.ietf-rtgwg-enterprise-pa-multihoming] provides a detailed explanation on why SLAAC and router advertisements are the most suitable mechanism for signaling network topology changes to hosts and thereby influencing the source address selection. Sending a router advertisement to change the preferred lifetime for a given prefix provides the following functionality:

To provide the desired functionality, first-hop routers are required to

The exact definition of the 'uplink status' depends on the network topology and may include conditions like:

etc.

In some scenarios, when two routers are providing first-hop redundancy via VRRP, the master-backup status can be considered as a condition for sending RAs and changing the preferred lifetime value. See Section 3.2.2 for more details.

If hosts are provided with ISP DNS servers IPv6 addresses via RDNSS [RFC8106] it might be desirable for the conditional RAs to update the Lifetime field of the RDNSS option as well.

The trigger is not only forcing the router to send an unsolicited RA to propagate the topology changes to all hosts. Obviously the RA fields values (like PIO Preferred Lifetime or DNS Server Lifetime) changed by the particular trigger MUST stay the same until another event happens causing the value to be updated. E.g. if the ISP_A uplink failure causes the prefix to be deprecated all solicited and unsolicited RAs sent by the router MUST have the Preferred Lifetime for that POI set to 0 until the uplink comes back up.

It should be noted that the proposed solution is quite similar to the existing requirement L-13 for IPv6 CPE routers ([RFC7084]) and the documented behaviour of homenet devices. It is using the same mechanism of deprecating a prefix when the corresponding uplink is not operational, applying it to enterprise network scenario.

3.2. Example Scenarios

This section illustrates how the conditional RAs solution can be applied to most common enterprise multihoming scenarios, described in Section 2.

                                                                 --------

			      

Figure 1: Single Router, Primary/Backup Uplinks

Let's look at a simple network topology where a single router acts as a border router to terminate two ISP uplinks and as a first-hop router for hosts. Each ISP assigns a /48 to the network, and the ISP_A uplink is a primary one, to be used for all Internet traffic, while the ISP_B uplink is a backup, to be used only when the primary uplink is not operational.

To ensure that packets with source addresses from ISP_A and ISP_B are only routed to ISP_A and ISP_B uplinks respectively, the network administrator needs to configure a policy on R1:

if {
     packet_destination_address is not in 2001:db8:1::/48 or 2001:db8:2::/48
     packet_source_address is in 2001:db8:1::/48 
} then {
       default next-hop is ISP_A_uplink
} 
if {
     packet_destination_address is not in 2001:db8:1::/48 or 2001:db8:2::/48
     packet_source_address is in 2001:db8:2::/48 
}
then {
       default next-hop is ISP_B_uplink
}
	

Under normal circumstances it is desirable that all traffic be sent via the ISP_A uplink, therefore hosts (the host H1 in the example topology figure) should be using source addresses from 2001:db8:1:1::/64. When/if ISP_A uplink fails, hosts should stop using the 2001:db8:1:1::/64 prefix and start using 2001:db8:2:1::/64 until the ISP_A uplink comes back up. To achieve this the router advertisement configuration on the R1 device for the interface facing H1 needs to have the following policy:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink is up 
    then preferred_lifetime = 604800  
  else preferred_lifetime = 0
 }

prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_Uplink is up
    then preferred_lifetime = 0
  else preferred_lifetime = 604800 
}
    

A similar policy needs to be applied to the RDNSS Lifetime if ISP_A and ISP_B DNS servers are used.

3.2.2. Two Routers, Primary/Backup Uplinks

Let's look at a more complex scenario where two border routers are terminating two ISP uplinks (one each), acting as redundant first-hop routers for hosts. The topology is shown on Fig.2


                                                                 --------

                                               '-------'       ',        ,'
                                                                 --------

									

Figure 2: Two Routers, Primary/Backup Uplinks

In this scenario R1 sends RAs with PIO for 2001:db8:1:1::/64 (ISP_A address space) and R2 sends RAs with PIO for 2001:db8:2:1::/64 (ISP_B address space). Each router needs to have a forwarding policy configured for packets received on its hosts-facing interface:

if {
     packet_destination_address is not in 2001:db8:1::/48 or 2001:db8:2::/48
     packet_source_address is in 2001:db8:1::/48 
} then {
    default next-hop is ISP_A_uplink
} 
if {
     packet_destination_address is not in 2001:db8:1::/48 or 2001:db8:2::/48
     packet_source_address is in 2001:db8:2::/48 
} then {
    default next-hop is ISP_B_uplink
}

In this case there is more than one way to ensure that hosts are selecting the correct source address based on the uplink status. If VRRP is used to provide first-hop redundancy and the master router is the one with the active uplink, then the simplest way is to use the VRRP mastership as a condition for router advertisement. So, if ISP_A is the primary uplink, the routers R1 and R2 need to be configured in the following way:

R1 is the VRRP master by default (when ISP_A uplink is up). If ISP_A uplink is down, then R1 becomes a backup. Router advertisements on R1's interface facing H1 needs to have the following policy applied:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if vrrp_master then preferred_lifetime = 604800
    else preferred_lifetime = 0
}

R2 is VRRP backup by default. Router advertsement on R2 interface facing H1 needs to have the following policy applied:

prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if vrrp_master then preferred_lifetime = 604800
    else preferred_lifetime = 0
}

If VRRP is not used or interface status tracking is not used for mastership switchover, then each router needs to be able to detect the uplink failure/recovery on the neighboring router, so that RAs with updated preferred lifetime values are triggered. Depending on the network setup various triggers like a route to the uplink interface subnet or a default route received from the uplink can be used. The obvious drawback of using the routing table to trigger the conditional RAs is that some additional configuration is required. For example, if a route to the prefix assigned to the ISP uplink is used as a trigger, then the conditional RA policy would have the following logic:

R1:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink is up then preferred_lifetime = 604800
  else preferred_lifetime = 0
  } 
  

R2:

prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink_route is present then preferred_lifetime = 0
    else preferred_lifetime = 604800
 } 
  

3.2.3. Single Router, Load Balancing Between Uplinks

Let's look at the example topology shown in Figure 1, but with both uplinks used simultaneously. In this case R1 would send RAs containing PIOs for both prefixes, 2001:db8:1:1::/64 and 2001:db8:2:1::/64, changing the preferred lifetime based on particular uplink availability. If the interface status is used as uplink availability indicator, then the policy logic would look like the following:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink is up then preferred_lifetime  = 604800
     else preferred_lifetime = 0
}
prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_B_uplink is up then preferred_lifetime  = 604800
     else preferred_lifetime = 0
}

R1 needs a forwarding policy to be applied to forward packets to the correct uplink based on the source address as described in Section 3.2.1.

3.2.4. Two Router, Load Balancing Between Uplinks

In this scenario the example topology is similar to the one shown in Figure 2, but both uplinks can be used at the same time. It means that both R1 and R2 need to have the corresponding forwarding policy to forward packets based on their source addresses.

Each router would send RAs with POI for the corresponding prefix. setting preferred_lifetime to a non-zero value when the ISP uplink is up, and deprecating the prefix by setting the preferred lifetime to 0 in case of uplink failure. The uplink recovery would trigger another RA with non-zero preferred lifetime to make the addresses from the prefix preferred again. The example RA policy on R1 and R2 would look like:

R1:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink is up then preferred_lifetime  = 604800
     else preferred_lifetime = 0
}

R2:

prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_B_uplink is up then preferred_lifetime  = 604800
     else preferred_lifetime = 0
}

3.2.5. Topologies with Dedicated Border Routers

For simplicity reasons all topologies below show the ISP uplinks terminated on the first-hop routers. Obviously, the proposed approach can be used in more complex topologies when dedicated devices are used for terminating ISP uplinks. In that case VRRP mastership or inteface status can not be used as a trigger for conditional RAs and route presence as described above should be used instead.

Let's look at the example topology shown on the Figure 3:


			      2001:db8:1::/48              -------- 
  2001:db8:1:1::/64                     ,-------,        ,'        ',

            | R2 |--|   |--| R4 |----+    ISP_B    +---+:            :
            +----+  +---+  +----+     ',         ,'     :            :
2001:db8:2:1::/64                       '-------'        ',        ,'
                              2001:db8:2::/48              --------

									

Figure 3: Dedicated Border Routers

For example, if ISP_A is a primary uplink and ISP_B is a backup one then the following policy might be used to achieve the desired behaviour (H1 is using ISP_A address space, 2001:db8:1:1::/64 while ISP_A uplink is up and only using ISP_B 2001:db8:2:1::/64 prefix if the uplink is non-operational):

R1 and R2 policy:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink_route is present then preferred_lifetime = 604800
  else preferred_lifetime = 0
  } 
prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink_route is present then preferred_lifetime = 0
    else preferred_lifetime = 604800
 } 
  

For load-balancing case the policy would look slightly different: each prefix has non-zero preferred_lifetime only if the correspoding ISP uplink route is present:

prefix 2001:db8:1:1::/64 {
  if ISP_A_uplink_route is present then preferred_lifetime = 604800
  else preferred_lifetime = 0
  } 
prefix 2001:db8:2:1::/64 {
  if ISP_B_uplink_route is present then preferred_lifetime = 604800 
    else preferred_lifetime = 0
 } 
  

3.2.6. Intra-Site Communication during Simultaneous Uplinks Outage

Prefix deprecation as a result of an uplink status change might lead to a situation when all global prefixes are deprecated (all ISP uplinks are not operational for some reason). Even when there is no Internet connectivity it might be still desirable to have intra-site IPv6 connectivity (especially when the network in question is an IPv6-only one). However while an address is in a deprecated state, its use is discouraged, but not strictly forbidden ([RFC4862]). In such scenario all IPv6 source addresses in the candidate set ([RFC6724]) are deprecated which means that they still can be used (as there is no preferred addresses available) and the source address selection algorith can pick up one of them, allowing the intra-site communication. However some OSes might just fall back to IPv4 if the network interface has no preferred IPv6 global addresses. Therefore if intra-site connectivity is vital during simultanious outages of multiple uplinks, administrators might consider using ULAs or provisioning additional backup uplinks to protect the network from double-failure cases.

3.2.7. Uplink Damping

If an actively used uplink (primary one or one used in load balaning scenario) starts flapping, it might lead to undesirable situation of flapping addresses on hosts (every time the uplink goes up hosts receive an RA with non-zerop preferred PIO lifetime, and every time the uplink goes down all address in the affected prefix become deprecated). Undoubtedly it would negatively impact user experience, not mentioning spikes of DAD traffic every time an uplink comes back up. Therefore it's recommended that router vendors implement some form of damping policy for conditional RAs and either postpone sending an RA with non-zero lifetime for a POI when the uplink comes up for a number of seconds or even introduce accumulated penalties/exponential backoff algorithm for such delays. (In the case of multiple simultaneous uplink failure scenario, when all but one uplinks are down and the last remaining is flapping it might result in all addresses being deprecated for a while after the flapping uplink recovers.)

3.3. Solution Limitations

It should be noted that the proposed approach is not a silver bullet for all possible multihoming scenarios. The main goal is to solve some common use cases so it would suit very well relatively simple topologies with straightforward policies. The more complex the network topology and the corresponding routing policies more configuration would be required to implement the solution. Another limitation is related to the load balancing between the uplinks. In that scenario when both uplinks are active hosts would select the source prefix using the Default Address Selection algorithm ([RFC6724]) and therefore the load between two uplinks most likely would not be evenly distributed. (However the proposed mechanism does allow a creative way of controlling uplinks load in SDN networks where controllers might selectively deprecate prefixes on some hosts but not others to move egress traffic between uplinks). Also the prefix selection does not take into account any other uplinks properties (such as RTT etc) so egress traffic might not be sent to the nearest uplink if the corresponding prefix is selected as a source. In general if not all uplinks are equal and some uplinks are expected to be preferred over others then the network adminitrator should ensure that prefixes from non-preferred ISP(s) are kept deprecated (so primary/backup setup is used).
