[Page 1] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 Abstract It is highly desired in several cases, to take into account Traffic Engineering (TE) node capabilities during TE LSP path selection, such as for instance the capability to act as a branch LSR of a P2MP LSP. This requires advertising these capabilities within the IGP. For that purpose, this document specifies OSPF and IS-IS traffic engineering extensions for the advertisement of control plane and data plane traffic engineering node capabilities.

[Page 3] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 3. Introduction MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) routing ([IS-IS-TE], [OSPF-TE]) relies on extensions to link state IGP routing protocols ([OSPF], [IS-IS]) in order to carry Traffic Engineering (TE) link information used for constraint based routing. Further Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) related routing extensions are defined in [IS-IS-G] and [OSPF-G]. It is desired to complement these routing extensions in order to carry TE node capabilities, in addition to TE link information. These TE node capabilities will be taken into account as constraints during path selection. Indeed, it is useful to advertise data plane TE node capabilities, such as, for instance the capability to be a branch LSR or a bud-LSR of a P2MP LSP. These capabilities are then taken into account as constraints when computing TE LSP paths. It is also useful to advertise control plane TE node capabilities such as for instance the capability to support GMPLS signaling for a packet LSR, or the capability to support P2MP (Point to Multipoint) TE LSP signaling. This allows selecting a path that avoids nodes that do not support a given signaling feature, or triggering a mechanism to support such nodes. Hence this facilitates backward compatibility. For that purpose, this document specifies IGP (OSPF and IS-IS) traffic engineering node capability TLVs in order to advertise data plane and control plane capabilities of a node. A new TLV is defined for ISIS and OSPF: the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV, to be carried within: - the ISIS Capability TLV ([ISIS-CAP]) for ISIS - the Router Information LSA ([OSPF-CAP]), for OSPF. 4. TE Node Capability Descriptor 4.1. Description LSRs in a network may have distinct control plane and data plane Traffic Engineering capabilities. The TE Node Capability Descriptor information defined in this document describes data and control plane capabilities of an LSR. Such information can be used for instance during path computation so as to avoid nodes that do not support a given TE feature either in the control or data plane or to trigger procedure to handle these nodes. In some cases, this may also be useful to ensure backward compatibility. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 4] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 4.2. Required Information The TE Node Capability Descriptor contains two variable length sets of bit flags: -The Data Plane Capabilities: This a variable length set of bit flags where each bit corresponds to a given TE data plane capability. -The Control Plane Capabilities: This a variable length set of bit flags where each bit corresponds to a given TE control plane capability. Two Data Plane Capabilities are currently defined: -B bit: when set, this flag indicates that the LSR can act as a branch node on a P2MP LSP (see [P2MP-REQ]) and [RSVP- P2MP]). -E bit: when set, this flag indicates that the LSR can act as a bud LSR on a P2MP LSP, i.e. an LSR that is both transit and egress. Three Control Plane Capabilities are currently defined: -M bit: when set, this flag indicates that the LSR supports MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-TE]). -G bit: when set this flag indicates that the LSR supports GMPLS signaling ([RSVP-G]). -P bit: when set, this flag indicates that the LSR supports P2MP MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-P2MP]). Note that new capabilities may be added in the future if required. Note that bits numbers are under IANA control. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 5] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 5. OSPF TE extensions 5.1. OSPF TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV format The OSPF TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV is made of various non ordered sub-TLVs. The format of the OSPF TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV and its sub- TLVs is the same as the TLV format used by the Traffic Engineering Extensions to OSPF [OSPF-TE]. That is, the TLV is composed of 2 octets for the type, 2 octets specifying the TLV length and a value field. The TLV is padded to four-octet alignment; padding is not included in the length field (so a three octet value would have a length of three, but the total size of the TLV would be eight octets). Nested TLVs are also 32-bit aligned. Unrecognized types are ignored. All types between 32768 and 65535 are reserved for vendor-specific extensions. All other undefined type codes are reserved for future assignment by IANA. The OSPF TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV has the following format: 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | // sub-TLVs // | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Type To be defined by IANA Length Variable Value This comprises one or more sub-TLVs Currently two sub-TLVs are defined: Sub-TLV type Length Name 1 variable DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV 2 variable CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV Any non recognized sub-TLV MUST be silently ignored. More sub-TLVs could be added in the future to handle new capabilities. The OSPF TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV is carried within an OSPF router information LSA which is defined in [OSPF-CAP]. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 6] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 5.1.1. The DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV The DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV is a series of bit flags, where each bit correspond to a data plane TE node capability, and has a variable length. The format of the DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Data Plane TE Node Capabilities | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Type To be assigned by IANA (suggested value =1) Length It is set to N x 4 octets. N starts from 1 and can be increased when there is a need. Each 4 octets are referred to as a capability flag. Value This comprises one or more capability flags. For each 4 octets, the bits are indexed from the most significant to the least significant, where each bit represents one data plane TE node capability. When the first 32 capabilities are defined, a new capability flag will be used to accommodate the next capability. These bits are under IANA control. The following bits in the first capability flag are to be assigned by IANA: Bit Capabilities 0 B bit: P2MP Branch Node capability: When set this indicates that the LSR can act as a branch node on a P2MP LSP [P2MP-REQ]; 1 E bit: P2MP Bud-LSR capability: When set, this indicates that the LSR can act as a bud LSR on a P2MP LSP, i.e. an LSR that is both transit and egress [P2MP-REQ]; 2-31 Reserved for future assignments by IANA. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 7] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 5.1.2. The CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV The CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV is a series of bit flags, where each bit correspond to a control plane TE node capability, and has a variable length. The format of the CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Control Plane TE Node Capabilities | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Type To be assigned by IANA (suggested value = 2) Length It is set to N x 4 octets. N starts from 1 and can be increased when there is a need. Each 4 octets are referred to as a capability flag. Value This comprises one or more capability flags. For each 4 octets, the bits are indexed from the most Significant to the least significant, where each bit represents one control plane TE node capability. When the first 32 capabilities are defined, a new capability flag will be used to accommodate the next capability. These bits are under IANA control. The following bits in the first capability flag are to be assigned by IANA: Bit Capabilities 0 M bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-TE]). 1 G bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports GMPLS signaling ([RSVP-G]). 2 P bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports P2MP MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-P2MP]). 3-31 Reserved for future assignments by IANA Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 8] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 5.2. Elements of Procedure The TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV is carried within an OSPF Router information opaque LSA (opaque type of 4, opaque ID of 0) which is defined in [OSPF-CAP]. A router MUST originate a new OSPF router information LSA whenever the content of any of the carried TLVs changes or whenever required by the regular OSPF procedure (LSA refresh (every LSRefreshTime)). The TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV advertises capabilities that are taken into account as constraints during path selection. Hence its flooding scope is area-local, and MUST be carried within a type 10 router information LSA. TE Node Capability Descriptor TLVs are OPTIONAL. When an OSPF LSA does not contain any TE Node capability Descriptor TLV, this means that the TE Capabilities of that LSR are unknown. Note that a change in any of these capabilities MAY trigger CSPF computation, but MUST not trigger normal SPF computation. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 9] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 6. IS-IS TE Extensions 6.1. IS-IS TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV format The IS-IS TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV is made of various non ordered sub-TLVs. The format of the IS-IS TE Node Capability TLV and its sub-TLVs is the same as the TLV format used by the Traffic Engineering Extensions to IS-IS [ISIS-TE]. That is, the TLV is composed of 1 octet for the type, 1 octet specifying the TLV length and a value field. The IS-IS TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV has the following format: TYPE: To be assigned by IANA LENGTH: Variable, from 3 to 255 VALUE: set of one or more sub-TLVs Currently two sub-TLVs are defined: Sub-TLV type Length Name 1 variable DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV 2 variable CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV Any non recognized sub-TLV MUST be silently ignored. More sub-TLVs could be added in the future to handle new capabilities. The IS-IS TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV is carried within an IS- IS CAPABILITY TLV which is defined in [ISIS-CAP]. 6.1.1. DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV The DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV is a series of bit flags, where each bit correspond to a data plane TE node capability, and has a variable length. These bits are under IANA control. The DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV has the following format: TYPE: To be assigned by IANA (Suggested value =1) LENGTH: It is set to N. N starts from 1 and can be increased when there is a need. Each octet is referred to as a capability flag. VALUE: This comprises one or more data plane TE node capability flags. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 10] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 The following bits in the first capability flag are to be assigned by IANA: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |B|E| Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ B bit: P2MP Branch node capability: When set this indicates that the LSR can act as a branch node on a P2MP LSP [P2MP-REQ] E bit: P2MP bud-LSR capability: When set, this indicates that the LSR can act as a bud LSR on a P2MP LSP, i.e. an LSR that is both transit and egress [P2MP-REQ]. Reserved bits are for future assignment by IANA 6.1.2. CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV The CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV is a series of bit flags, where each bit correspond to a control plane TE node capability, and has a variable length. These bits are under IANA control. The CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV has the following format: TYPE: To be assigned by IANA (suggested value = 2) LENGTH: It is set to N. N starts from 1 and can be increased when there is a need. Each octet is referred to as a capability flag. VALUE: This comprises one or more control plane TE node capability flags. The following bits in the first capability flag are to be assigned by IANA. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |M|G|P|Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ -M bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-TE]). -G bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports GMPLS signaling ([RSVP-G]). -P bit: If set this indicates that the LSR supports P2MP MPLS-TE signaling ([RSVP-P2MP]). Reserved bits are for future assignment by IANA. Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 11] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 6.2. Elements of procedure The TE Node Capability TLV is carried within an IS-IS CAPABILITY TLV defined in [IS-IS-CAP]. An IS-IS router MUST originate a new IS-IS LSP whenever the content of any of the TE Node Capability TLV changes or whenever required by the regular IS-IS procedure (LSP refresh). The TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV advertises capabilities that are taken into account as constraints during path selection. Hence its flooding is area-local, and MUST be carried within an IS-IS CAPABILITY TLV having the S flag cleared. TE Node Capability Descriptor TLVs are OPTIONAL. When a IS-IS LSP does not contain any TE Node capability Descriptor TLV, this means that the TE Capabilities of that LSR are unknown. Note that a change in any of these capabilities MAY trigger CSPF computation, but MUST not trigger normal SPF computation. 7. Backward compatibility The TE Node Capability Descriptor TLVs defined in this document do not introduce any interoperability issue. For OSPF, a router not supporting the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV SHOULD just silently ignore the TLV as specified in RFC2370. For IS-IS a router not supporting the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV SHOULD just silently ignore the TLV. 8. Security Considerations No new security issues are raised in this document. 9. IANA considerations 9.1. OSPF TLVs IANA will assign a new codepoint for the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV defined in this document and carried within the Router Information LSA. Two sub-TLVs types are defined for this TLV and should be assigned by IANA: -CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV (suggested value =1) -DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV (suggested value =2) Vasseur, Le Roux, et al. [Page 12] Internet Draft draft-ietf-ccamp-te-node-cap-00.txt November 2005 9.2. ISIS TLVs IANA will assign a new codepoint for the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV defined in this document, and carried within the ISIS CAPABILITY TLV. Two sub-TLVs types are defined for this TLV and should be assigned by IANA: -CONTROL-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV (suggested value =1) -DATA-PLANE-CAP sub-TLV (suggested value =2) 9.3. Capability bits IANA is requested to manage the space of control plane and data plane capability bit flags, numbering them in the usual IETF notation starting at zero and continuing at least through 31. New bit numbers may be allocated only by an IETF Consensus action. Each bit should be tracked with the following qualities: - Bit number - Defining RFC - Name of bit Currently two bits are defined in the data plane capability flags. Here are the suggested values: -0x01: P2MP Branch LSR capability -0x02: P2MP Bud LSR capability Currently three bits are defined in the control plane capability flags. Here are the suggested values: -0x01: MPLS-TE support -0x02: GMPLS support -0x04: P2MP RSVP-TE support 10.
