Flowspec Indirection-id Redirect for SRv6
draft-ietf0-idr-srv6-flowspec-path-redirect-03
This document defines extensions to "FlowSpec Redirect to indirection-id Extended Community" for SRv6. This extended community can trigger advanced redirection capabilities to flowspec clients for SRv6. When activated, this flowspec extended community is used by a flowspec client to retrieve the corresponding next-hop and encoding information within a localised indirection-id mapping table.
The functionality detailed in this document allows a network controller to decouple the BGP flowspec redirection instruction from the operation of the available paths.
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.
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

"FlowSpec Redirect to indirection-id Extended Community" for IPv4 is defined in ietf-idr-flowspec-path-redirect. This draft specifies extensions to this community for SRv6.
This document defines a new sub-type value for SRv6 in "FlowSpec Redirect to indirection-id Extended Community". The format of this extended community with the new sub-type value is show below:
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

Where
Type: 1 octet, defined in ietf-idr-flowspec-path-redirect.
Sub-Type: 1 octet, its value (TBD) will be assigned by IANA.
Flags: Same as that defined in ietf-idr-flowspec-path-redirect.
ID-Type: 1 octet value. This draft defines following Context Types:
Generalized indirection_id: 128-bit identifier used as indirection_id
A system using "Redirect to indirection-id" extended community can cause during the redirect mitigation of a DDoS attack overflow of traffic received by the mitigation infrastructure.
