1. Introduction
[RFC9262] introduces Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) Traffic/
Tree Engineering (BIER-TE). It is an architecture for per-packet
stateless explicit point to multipoint (P2MP) multicast path/tree.
There are three types of BitPositions (BPs) in a BIER-TE domain: link
BitPosition (BP), routed BP and localdecap BP. A link BP is a BP
configured on a link from Bit-Forwarding Router (BFR) X to BFR Y for
a forward connected adjacency from X to Y. A routed BP is a BP
configured on BFR X for a forward routed adjacency from X to a remote
BFR Z not directly connected to X. A localdecap BP is a BP
configured on a BFR.

Internet-Draft OSPF for BIER-TE October 2023
[RFC8444] describes OSPFv2 Extensions for distributing the BFR
identifier (BFR-id) configured on a BFR.
[I-D.ietf-bier-ospfv3-extensions] describes OSPFv3 Extensions for
distributing the BFR identifier (BFR-id) configured on a BFR. This
document specifies OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 extensions for distributing the
BitPositions configured a BFR in a BIER-TE domain. The BitPositions
distributed may be used by a BFR as a Point of Local Repair (PLR) for
Fast-ReRoute (FRR).
2. Extensions to OSPFv2
This section describes protocol extensions to OSPFv2 for distributing
the BitPositions configured on a BFR in a BIER-TE domain.
2.1. Link BitPosition
This section defines a Sub-TLV for distributing a link BitPosition
(BP).
[RFC7684] defines the OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV to advertise the
information about a link. Multiple Link TLVs for the links of a
router are included in the OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA of the
router. The OSPFv2 Extended Link 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

Reserved: MUST be set to 0 on transmission and MUST be ignored on
reception.
Under the OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV for a link, a Sub-TLV, called
Link-BP Sub-TLV, is defined for distributing a link BitPosition. A
Link-BP Sub-TLV is included in the Link TLV for a link of Link Type
P2P (Point-to-Point) or Broadcast (or say LAN or Transit Network).
The Link-BP 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

of [RFC8444].
BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition locally
configured on the link/interface when the Link Type of the link
in the OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV containing this Sub-TLV is 1
(i.e., Point-to-Point connection to another router) or 2 (i.e.,
connection to Transit Network or say LAN).
DrEndBitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition of the
connection on the designated router (DR) end. This field
exists when the Link Type in the OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV
containing this Sub-TLV is 2 (i.e., Transit Network or LAN).
For the other value of the Link Type, this field MUST NOT
exist. The DrEndBitPosition may be configured on the link/
interface to a transit network (i.e., broadcast link or say
LAN) as described in [I-D.chen-bier-te-lan].

2.2. Routed and Localdecap BitPositions
A TLV, called Node BPs TLV, is defined within the body of the OSPF
Router Information (RI) Opaque Link State Advertisement (LSA)
[RFC7770]. The TLV contains Sub-TLVs. Two types of Sub-TLVs are
defined. One is for a Routed BitPosition and the other for a
Localdecap BitPosition.
The Node BPs 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

3. Extensions to OSPFv3
This section describes protocol extensions to OSPFv3 for distributing
the BitPositions configured on a BFR in a BIER-TE domain.
3.1. Link BitPosition
[RFC8362] defines OSPFv3 Extended Router LSA, which may include
multiple Router-Link TLVs. A Router-Link TLV defines a single router
link. A Router-Link TLV may include a Link-BP Sub-TLV below for
distributing a link BP.

Length: Variable.
sub-domain-id, MT-ID, BAR and IPA: They are defined in Section 2.1
of [I-D.ietf-bier-ospfv3-extensions].
BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition locally
configured on the link/interface when the Link Type of the link
in the Router-Link TLV containing this Sub-TLV is 1 (i.e.,
Point-to-Point connection to another router) or 2 (i.e.,
connection to Transit Network or say LAN).
DrEndBitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition of the
connection on the designated router (DR) end. This field
exists when the Link Type in the Router-Link TLV containing
this Sub-TLV is 2 (i.e., Transit Network or LAN). For the
other value of the Link Type, this field MUST NOT exist. The
DrEndBitPosition may be configured on the link/interface to a
transit network (i.e., broadcast link or say LAN) as described
in [I-D.chen-bier-te-lan].
3.2. Routed and Localdecap BitPositions
The Node BPs TLV, Routed BP Sub-TLV and Localdecap BP Sub-TLV defined
in Section 2.2 are reused in OSPVv3 for distributing the routed
BitPositions and the localdecap BitPosition configured on a BFR.
4. Security Considerations
Protocol extensions defined in this document do not affect the OSPF
security other than those as discussed in the Security Considerations
section of [RFC7684] and [RFC8362].
5. IANA Considerations
5.1. OSPFv2
Under "OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV Sub-TLVs" registry as defined in
[RFC7684], IANA is requested to assign a new registry value for Link-
BP Sub-TLV as follows:
+==============+===================+=====================+
| Value | Description | reference |
