Network managers currently prefer to Provider Independent (PI) addressing for IPv6 to attempt to minimize the need for future renumbering. However, widespread use of PI may create very serious BGP4 scaling problems. It is thus desirable to develop tools and practices that may make renumbering a simpler process to reduce demand for IPv6 PI space. In any case, renumbering may be necessary for other reasons. This document undertakes scenario descriptions, including documentation of current capabilities and existing BCPs, for enterprise networks. It takes the analysis conclusions from [RFC5887] and other relevant documents as the primary input. This document focuses on IPv6 only, by leaving IPv4 out of scope. Dual-stack network or IPv4/IPv6 transition scenarios are out of scope, too. This document focuses on enterprise network renumbering, though most of the analysis is also applicable to ISP network renumbering. Renumbering in home networks is considered out of scope, though it may also benefit from the analysis in this document. The concept of enterprise network and a typical network illustration are introduced first. Then, according to the different stages of renumbering events, considerations and best current practices are described in three categories: during network design, for preparation of renumbering, and during renumbering operation. A gap inventory is listed at the end of this document. 2. Enterprise Network Illustration for Renumbering An Enterprise Network as defined in [RFC4057] is: a network that has multiple internal links, one or more router connections to one or more Providers, and is actively managed by a network operations entity. The enterprise network architecture is illustrated in the figure below. Those entities relevant to renumbering are highlighted. Address reconfiguration is fulfilled either by DHCPv6 or ND protocols. Static address assignment is not considered in this version. During the renumbering event, the DNS records need to be synchronized while routing tables, ACLs and IP filtering tables in various gateways also need to be updated, too. Jiang, et al.

The complicated IPv4/IPv6 co-existence scenarios are out of scope. This document focuses on the unicast addresses; site-local, link- local, multicast and anycast addresses are out of scope. 3. Enterprise Network Renumbering Scenario Categories In this section, we divide enterprise network renumbering scenarios into two categories defined by external and internal network factors, which require renumbering for different reasons. 3.1. Renumbering caused by External Network Factors The most influential external network factor is the uplink ISP. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 4] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 o The enterprise network switches to a new ISP. Of course, the prefixes received from different ISPs are different. This is the most common scenario. Whether there is an overlap time between the old and new ISPs would also influence the possibility whether the enterprise can fulfill renumbering without a flag day [RFC4192]. o The renumbering event may be initiated by receiving new prefixes from the same uplink. The typical scenario is that the DHCPv6 server in the ISP delegates a new prefix to the enterprise network. This might happen if the enterprise network is switched to a different location within the network topology of the same ISP due to various considerations, such as commercial, performance or services reasons, etc. Alternatively, the ISP itself might be renumbered due to topology changes or migration to a different or additional prefix. These ISP renumbering events would initiate enterprise network renumbering events, of course. o The enterprise network adds new uplink(s) for multihoming purposes. This may not a typical renumbering because the original addresses will not be changed. However, initial numbering may be considered as a special renumbering event. If the administrators only want part of the network to have multiple prefixes, the renumbering process should be carefully managed. o The enterprise network removes uplink(s) or old prefixes. 3.2. Renumbering caused by Internal Network Factors o As companies split, merge, grow, relocate or reorganize, the enterprise network architectures may need to be re-built. This will trigger the internal renumbering. o The enterprise network may proactively adopt a new address scheme, for example by switching to a new transition mechanism or stage of a transition plan. o The enterprise network may reorganize its topology or subnets. 4. Network Renumbering Considerations and Best Current Practices In order to carry out renumbering in an enterprise network, systematic planning and administrative preparation are needed. Carefully planning and preparation could make the renumbering process smoother. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 5] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 This section tries to give the recommended solutions or strategies for the enterprise renumbering, chosen among existing mechanisms. There are known gaps analyzed by [I-D.liu-6renum-gap-analysis]. If these gaps are filled in the future, the enterprise renumbering may be processed more automatically, with fewer issues. 4.1. Considerations and Best Current Practices during Network Design This section describes the consideration or issues relevant to renumbering that a network architect should carefully plan when building or designing a new network. - Prefix Delegation In a large or a multi-site enterprise network, the prefix should be carefully managed, particularly during renumbering events. Prefix information needs to be delegated from router to router. The DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation options [RFC3633, I-D.ietf-dhc-pd- exclude] provide a mechanism for automated delegation of IPv6 prefixes. DHCPv6 PD options may also be used between the enterprise routers and their upstream ISPs. - Usage of FQDN It is recommended that Fully-Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs) should be used to configure network connectivity, such as tunnels, whenever possible. The capability to use FQDNs as endpoint names has been standardized in several RFCs, such as [RFC5996], although many system/network administrators do not realize that it is there and works well as a way to avoid manual modification during renumbering. Service Location Protocol [RFC2608] and multicast DNS with SRV records for service discovery can reduce the number of places that IP addresses need to be configured. - Address Types This document focuses on the dynamically-configured global unicast addresses in enterprise networks. They are the targets of renumbering events. Manual-configured addresses are not scalable in medium to large sites, hence are out of scope. However, some hosts such as servers may need static addresses. Manual-configured addresses/hosts should be avoided as much as possible. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 6] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 Unique Local Addresses (ULA, [RFC4193]) may be used for local communications, usually inside of enterprise networks. They can be sufficient for any host that is accessible only inside the enterprise network and has no need for external communication [RFC4864]. Normally, they do not need to be changed during a global prefix renumbering event. However, they may need to be renumbered in some rare scenarios, quite separate from the global prefix renumbering. - Address configuration models In IPv6 networks, there are two auto-configuration models for address assignment: Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC) by Neighbor Discovery (ND, [RFC4861, RFC4862]) and stateful address configuration by Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6, [RFC3315]). In the latest work, DHCPv6 can also support host-generated address model by assigning a prefix through DHCPv6 messages [I-D.ietf-dhc-host-gen-id]. ND is considered easier to renumber by broadcasting a Router Advertisement message with a new prefix. DHCPv6 can also trigger the renumbering process by sending unicast RECONFIGURE messages, though it may cause a large number of interactions between hosts and DHCPv6 server. In principle, an enterprise network should choose only one address configuration model and employ either ND or DHCPv6. This document has no preference between ND and DHCPv6 address configuration models. It is network architects' job to decide which configuration model is employed. Even in a large network that contains several subnets, it is better not to mix the two address configuration models, though using them independently in different subnets may partly reduce the risk. However, since DHCPv6 is also used to configure many other network parameters, there are ND and DHCPv6 co-existence scenarios. Combinations of address configuration models may coexist within a single enterprise network. [I-D.ietf-savi-mix] provides recommendations to avoid collisions and to review collision handling in such scenarios. - DNS It is recommended that the site have an automatic and systematic procedure for updating/synchronising its DNS records, including both forward and reverse mapping [RFC2874]. A manual on-demand Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 7] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 updating model is considered as a harmful source of problems in a renumbering event. Although the A6 DNS record model [RFC2874] was designed for easier renumbering, it has a lot of unsolved technical issues [RFC3364, I-D.jiang-dnsext-a6-to-historic]. Therefore, it has been moved to experimental status [RFC3363]. It is not recommended. In order to simplify the operation procedure, the network architect should combine the forward and reverse DNS updates in a single procedure. Often, a small site depends on its ISP's DNS system rather than maintaining its own. When renumbering, this requires administrative coordination between the site and its ISP. The DNS synchronization may be completed through the Secure DNS Dynamic Update [RFC3007]. Alternatively, a DHCPv6 server could update host DNS records following the operations defined by [RFC4704]. In a model including SLAAC, host addresses may be registered on an address registration server, which could in fact be a DHCPv6 server; then the server would update corresponding DNS records. - Security Any automatic renumbering scheme has a potential exposure to hijacking at the moment that a new address is announced. Proper network security mechanisms should be employed. Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND, [RFC3971]), which is not widely deployed, is recommended to replace ND if this is considered to be a serious threat. DHCPv6 built-in secure mechanisms, like Secure DHCPv6 [I- D.ietf-dhc-secure-dhcpv6] or authentication of DHCPv6 messages [RFC3315] are recommended. - Miscellaneous A site or network should also avoid embedding addresses from other sites or networks in its own configuration data. Instead, the Fully-Qualified Domain Names should be used. Thus, these connectivities can survive after renumbering events at other sites. This also applies to host-based connectivities. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 8] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 4.2. Considerations and Best Current Practices for the Preparation of Renumbering It is not possible to reduce a prefix's lifetime to below two hours. So, renumbering should not be an unplanned sudden event. This issue could only be avoided by early planning and preparation. This section describes several recommendations for the preparation of enterprise renumbering event. By adopting these recommendations, a site could be renumbered more easily. However, these recommendations are not cost free. They might increase the daily burden of network operation. Therefore, only those networks that are expected to be renumbered soon or very frequently should adopt these recommendations, with balanced consideration between daily cost and renumbering cost. - Reduce the address preferred time or valid time or both. Long-lifetime addresses may cause issues for renumbering events. Particularly, some offline hosts may reconnect using these addresses after renumbering events. Shorter preferred lifetimes with relatively long valid lifetimes may allow short transition periods for renumbering events and avoid frequent address renewals. - Reduce the DNS record TTL on the local DNS server. The DNS AAAA resource record TTL on the local DNS server should be manipulated to ensure that stale addresses are not cached. - Reduce the DNS configuration lifetime on the hosts. Since the DNS server could be renumbered as well, the DNS configuration lifetime on the hosts should also be reduced if renumbering events are expected. The DNS configuration can be done through either ND [RFC6106] or DHCPv6 [RFC3646]. - Identify long-living sessions Any applications which maintain very long transport connections (hours or days) should be identified in advance, if possible. Such applications will need special handling during renumbering, so it is important to know that they exist. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 9] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 4.3. Considerations and Best Current Practices during Renumbering Operation Renumbering events are not instantaneous events. Normally, there is a transition period, in which both the old prefix and the new prefix are used in the site. Better network design and management, better pre-preparation and longer transition period are helpful to reduce the issues during renumbering operation. - Within/without a flag day As is described in [RFC4192], "a 'flag day' is a procedure in which the network, or a part of it, is changed during a planned outage, or suddenly, causing an outage while the network recovers." If renumbering event is processed within a flag day, the network service/connectivity will be out for a period till the renumbering event is completed. It is efficient and provides convenience for network operation and management. But network outage is usually unacceptable for end users and enterprises. A renumbering procedure without a flag day provides smooth address switching, but much more operational complexity and difficulty is introduced. - Transition period If renumbering transition period is longer than all address lifetimes, after which the address leases expire, each host will automatically pick up its new IP address. In this case, it would be the DHCPv6 server or Router Advertisement itself that automatically accomplishes client renumbering. Address deprecation should be associated with the deprecation of associated DNS records. The DNS records should be deprecated as early as possible, before the addresses themselves. - Network initiative enforced renumbering If the network has to enforce renumbering before address leases expire, the network should initiate enforcement messages, either in Router Advertisement messages or DHCPv6 RECONFIGURE messages. - Impact to branch/main sites Renumbering in main/branch site may cause impact on branch/main site communication. The routes, ingress filtering of site's Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 10] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 gateways, and DNS may need to be updated. This needs careful planning and organizing. - DNS record update and DNS configuration on hosts DNS records on the local DNS server should be updated if hosts are renumbered. If the site depends on ISP's DNS system, it should report the new host's DNS records to its ISP. During the transition period, both old and new DNS records are valid. If the TTL of DNS records is shorter than the transition period, an administrative operation may not be necessary. DNS configuration on hosts should be updated if local recursive DNS servers are renumbered. During the transition period, both old and new DNS server addresses may co-exist on the hosts. If the lifetime of DNS configuration is shorter than the transition period, name resolving failure may be reduced to minimum. A notification mechanism may be needed to indicate to the hosts that a renumbering event of local recursive DNS happens or is going to take place. - Router awareness In a site with multiple border routers, all border routers should be aware of partial renumbering in order to correctly handle inbound packets. Internal forwarding tables need to be updated. - Border filtering In a multihomed site, an egress router to ISP A could normally filter packets with source addresses from other ISPs. The egress router connecting to ISP A should be notified if the egress router connecting to ISP B initiates a renumbering event in order to properly update its filter function. - Tunnel concentrator renumbering A tunnel concentrator itself might be renumbered. This change should be reconfigured in relevant hosts or routers, unless the configuration of tunnel concentrator was based on FQDN. - Connectivity session survivability During the renumbering operations, connectivity sessions in IP layer would break if the old address is deprecated before the session ends. However, the upper layer sessions may survive by using session survivability technologies, such as SHIM6 [RFC5533]. Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 11] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 As mentioned above, some long-living applications may need to be handled specially. 5. Gap Inventory This section lists a few issues that still appear to remain unsolvable (also see [I-D.liu-6renum-gap-analysis]). Some of them may be inherently unsolvable. - Some environments like embedded systems might not use DHCPv6 or SLAAC and even configuration scripts might not be an option. This creates special problems that no general-purpose solution is likely to address. - TCP and UDP flows can't survive a renumbering event at either end. - The embedding of IPv6 unicast addresses into multicast addresses and the embedded-RP (Rendezvous Point) [RFC3956] will cause issues when renumbering. - Changing the unicast source address of a multicast sender might also be an issue for receivers. - When a renumbering event takes place, entries in the state table of tunnel concentrator that happen to contain the old addresses will become invalid and will eventually time out. However, this can be considered as harmless though it takes resources on these devices for a while. - A site that is listed in an IP black list can escape that list by renumbering itself. The site itself of course will not report its renumbering and the black list may not be able to monitor or discover the renumbering event. - Multihomed sites, using SLAAC for one address prefix and DHCPv6 for another, would clearly create a risk of inconsistent host behaviour and operational confusion. 6. Security Considerations As noted, a site that is listed by IP address in a black list can escape that list by renumbering itself. Any automatic renumbering scheme has a potential exposure to hijacking at the moment that a new address is announced. Proper network security mechanisms should be employed. SEND is recommended Jiang, et al. Expires March 18, 2012 [Page 12] Internet-Draft draft-jiang-6renum-enterprise-01.txt September 2011 to replace ND. Alternatively, certain lightweight renumbering specific security mechanism may be developed in the future. DHCPv6 build-in secure mechanisms, like Secure DHCPv6 [I-D.ietf-dhc-secure-dhcpv6] or authentication of DHCPv6 messages [RFC3315] are recommended. The security configuration updates will need to be made in two stages (immediately before and immediately after the event). 7. IANA Considerations This draft does not request any IANA action. 8.
