Introduction This document describes procedures for distributing upstream-assigned labels [MPLS-UPSTREAM] for Resource Reservation Protocol with Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) and Label Distribution Protocol (LDP). These procedures follow the architecture for MPLS Upstream Label Assignment described in [MPLS-UPSTREAM]. This document describes extensions to RSVP-TE and LDP that a LSR can Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 2] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 use to advertise to its neighboring LSRs whether the LSR supports upstream label assignment. This document also describes extensions to RSVP-TE and LDP to dis- tribute upstream-assigned labels. The usage of MPLS upstream label assignment using RSVP-TE and LDP for avoiding branch LSR [RSVP-P2MP] traffic replication on a LAN for RSVP-TE P2MP TE LSPs [RSVP-TE-P2MP] and LDP P2MP LSPs [LDP-P2MP1, LDP-P2MP2] is also described. 3. Upstream Label Assignment Capability According to [MPLS-UPSTREAM], upstream-assigned label bindings MUST NOT be used unless it is known that a downstream LSR supports them. This implies that there MUST be a mechanism to enable a LSR to adver- tise to its RSVP-TE or LDP neighbor LSR(s) its support of upstream- assigned labels. 3.1. RSVP-TE Upstream Label Assignment Capability [RSVP-RESTART] defines a CAPABILITY object to be carried within Hello messages, and used to indicate the set of capabilities supported by a node. Currently one flag is defined, the R flag indicating the sup- port for RecoveryPath Srefresh. This document defines a new flag, the U flag, to signal a LSR's support of upstream label assignment to its RSVP-TE neighbors. The format of a Capability object is: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Length | Class-Num(TBA)| C-Type (1) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Reserved |U|R| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Recovery Path Srefresh Capable (R): 1 bit, defined in [RSVP-RESTART]. Upstream Label Assignement Capable (U): 1 bit When set this means that the LSR is capable of both distributing upstream-assigned label bindings and receiving upstream-assigned label bindings Reserved bits MUST be set to zero on transmission and MUST be ignored Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 3] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 on receipt. The usage of RSVP-TE Hello messages for exchanging upstream label assignment capability implies that a LSR MAY exchange RSVP-TE Hellos with a neighbor before sending/receiving any other RSVP-TE messages to/from that neighbor. 3.2. LDP Upstream Label Assignment Capability A new optional parameter, the Upstream Label Assignment Capability TLV, is introduced to signal a LSR's support of upstream label assignment, to its LDP peers. This optional parameter is carried in LDP Initialization messages. 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |1|0| Upstream Lbl Ass Cap (TBD)| Length (= 4) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ If a LSR includes the Upstream Label Assignment Capability TLV in LDP Initialization Messages it implies that the LSR is capable of both distributing upstream-assigned label bindings and receiving upstream- assigned label bindings. Reserved bits MUST be set to zero on trans- mission and MUST be ignored on receipt. 4. Distributing Upstream-Assigned Labels 4.1. Distributing Upstream-Assigned Labels in RSVP-TE An optional RSVP-TE object, the UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL object is introduced to signal an upstream-assigned label. The Class-Num for this object comes from the 0bbbbbbb space and is to be determined by IANA. UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL C-Num = TBD 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Label | Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 4] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 | .... | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ The label can be encoded as in [RFC3209] when the C-Type is 1 or as a Generalized Label [RFC3473] when the C-Type is 2 or 3. 4.1.1. Procedures A RSVP-TE LSR that assigns Upstream-Assigned Labels, distributes them to the downstream LSRs by including them in RSVP-TE Path messages. A RSVP-TE LSR MUST NOT distribute the UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL Object to a downstream LSR if the downstream LSR had not previously adver- tised the CAPABILITY object with the U bit set in its RSVP-TE Hello messages. If a downstream RSVP-TE LSR receives a Path message that carries an UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL Object and the LSR does not support the object C-Num/C-Type it will return an "Unknown Object C-Num/C-Type" error. If the LSR does support the object, but is unable to process the upstream-assigned label as described in [MPLS-UPSTREAM] it SHOULD send a PathErr with the error code "Routing problem" and the error value "MPLS Upstream Assigned Label Processing Failure". If the LSR successfully processes the Path message and the upstream-assigned label it MUST send a Resv message upstream as per [RFC3209] but it MUST NOT include the LABEL object with a downstream assigned label in the Resv Message. This is because as described in [MPLS-UPSTREAM] two LSRs Ru and Rd for a LSP that is bound to FEC F, MUST use either downstream-assigned label distribution or upstream-assigned label distribution,for FEC F, but NOT both, for packets that are to be transmitted on the LSP from Ru to Rd. 4.2. Distributing Upstream-Assigned Labels in LDP An optional LDP TLV, Upstream-Assigned Label Request TLV, is intro- duced. This TLV MUST be carried in a Label Request message if an upstream-assigned label is being requested. 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |0|0| Upstream Ass Lbl Req (TBD)| Length | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 5] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 An optional LDP TLV, Upstream-Assigned Label TLV is introduced to signal an upstream-assigned label. Upstream-Assigned Label TLVs are carried by the messages used to advertise, release and withdraw upstream assigned label mappings. 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |0|0| Upstream Ass Label (TBD) | Length | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Label | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Label This is a 20-bit label value as specified in [RFC3032] represented as a 20-bit number in a 4 octet field. 4.2.1. Procedures Procedures for Label Mapping, Label Request, Label Abort, Label With- draw and Label Release follow [RFC3036] other than the modifications pointed out in this section. A LDP LSR MUST NOT distribute the Upstream Assigned Label TLV to a neighboring LSR if the neighboring LSR had not previously advertised the Upstream Label Assignment Capability in its LDP Initialization messages. A LDP LSR MUST NOT send the Upstream Assigned Label Request TLV to a neighboring LSR if the neighboring LSR had not pre- viously advertised the Upstream Label Assignment Capability in its LDP Initialization messages. As described in [MPLS-UPSTREAM] the distribution of upstream-assigned labels is similar to either ordered LSP control or independent LSP control of the downstream assigned labels. When the label distributed in a Label Mapping message is an upstream- assigned label, the Upstream Assigned Label TLV MUST be included in the Label Mapping message. When a LSR receives a Label Mapping mes- sage with an Upstream Assigned Label TLV and if it does not recognize the TLV, it MUST generate a Notification message with a status code of "Unknown TLV" [RFC3036]. If it does recognize the TLV but is unable to process the upstream label, it MUST generate a Notification message with a status code of "No Label Resources". If the Label Map- ping message was generated in response to a Label Request message, Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 6] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 the Label Request message MUST contain an Upstream Assigned Label Request TLV. A LSR that generates an upstream assigned label request to a neighbor LSR, for a given FEC, MUST NOT send a downstream label mapping to the neighbor LSR for that FEC unless it withdraws the upstream-assigned label binding. Similarly if a LSR generates a down- stream assigned label request to a neighbor LSR, for a given FEC, it MUST NOT send an upstream label mapping to that LSR for that FEC, unless it aborts the downstream assigned label request. The Upstream Assigned Label TLV may be optionally included in Label Withdraw and Label Release messages that withdraw/release a particu- lar upstream assigned label binding. 5. Tunnel Identifier Exchange As described in [MPLS-UPSTREAM] an upstream LSR Ru MAY transmit a MPLS packet, the top label of which (L) is upstream-assigned, to a downstream LSR Rd, by encapsulating it in an IP or MPLS tunnel. In this case the fact that L is upstream-assigned is determined by Rd by the tunnel on which the packet is received. There must be a mechanism for Ru to inform Rd that a particular tunnel from Ru to Rd will be used by Ru for transmitting MPLS packets with upstream-assigned MPLS labels. 5.1. RSVP-TE Tunnel Identifier Exchange When RSVP-TE is used for upstream label assignment, the IF_ID RSVP_HOP object is used for signaling the Tunnel Identifier. If Ru uses an IP or MPLS tunnel to transmit MPLS packets with upstream assigned labels to Rd, Ru MUST include the IF_ID RSVP_HOP object [RFC3473] in Path messages along with the UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL Object. Two new TLVs are introduced in the IF_ID RSVP_HOP object [RFC3471] to support RSVP-TE P2MP LSPs and IP Multicast Tunnels. The TLV value acts as the tunnel identifier. 1. RSVP-TE P2MP LSP TLV. Type = TBD. Value of the TLV is the RSVP-TE P2MP Session Object and optionally the P2MP Sender Template Object [RSVP-TE-P2MP]. The TLV value identifies the RSVP-TE P2MP LSP. This mechanism extends RSVP-TE P2P Hierarchy [LSP-HIER] to RSVP-TE P2MP Hierarchy. It allows Ru to tunnel an "inner" P2MP LSP, the label for which is upstream assigned, over an "outer" P2MP LSP that has leaves . The P2MP LSP IF_ID TLV allows Ru to signal to the binding of the inner P2MP LSP to the outer P2MP LSP. The control plane signaling between Ru and for the inner Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 7] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 P2MP LSP uses directed RSVP-TE signaling messages as in [LSP-HIER]. 2. IP Multicast Tunnel TLV. Type = TBD. In this case the TLV value is a tuple. 5.2. LDP Tunnel Identifier Exchange When LDP is used for upstream label assignment, the Interface ID TLV [RFC3472] is used for signaling the Tunnel Identifier. If Ru uses an IP or MPLS tunnel to transmit MPLS packets with upstream assigned labels to Rd, Ru MUST include the Interface ID TLV in the Label Map- ping messages along with the Upstream Assigned Label TLV. The Inter- face ID TLVs used are the same as the ones specified in the previous section i.e. the RSVP-TE P2MP LSP TLV and the IP Multicast Tunnel TLV. 6. Point-to-Multipoint LSPs on a LAN This section describes one application of upstream label assignment using RSVP-TE and LDP. Further applications are to be described in separate documents. 6.1. RSVP-TE P2MP LSPs [RSVP-TE-P2MP] describes how to setup RSVP-TE P2MP LSPs. On a LAN the solution described in [RSVP-TE-P2MP] relies on "ingress replication". A LSR on a LAN, that is a branch LSR for a P2MP LSP, (say Ru) sends a separate copy of a packet that it receives on the P2MP LSP to each of the downstream LSRs on the LAN (say that are adjacent to it in the P2MP LSP. In order to increase efficiency of bandwidth utilization, it is desirable for Ru to send a single copy of the packet for the P2MP LSP on the LAN, when there are multiple downstream routers on the LAN that are adjacent in that P2MP LSP. This requires that each of must be able to associate the label L, used by Ru to transmit packets for the P2MP LSP on the LAN, with that P2MP LSP. It is possible to achieve this using RSVP-TE upstream-assigned labels with the following procedures. Assume that Ru and support upstream label assignment. Ru sends a Path message for the P2MP LSP to each of that is adjacent on the P2MP LSP, with the same UPSTREAM_ASSIGNED_LABEL object. This object carries an upstream assigned label, L. "reserve" the upstream assigned label in the separate Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 8] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 Upstream Neighbor Label Space that they maintain for Ru [MPLS- UPSTREAM]. Ru can then transmit a single packet for the P2MP LSP to with a top label L using procedures defined in [MPLS- UPSTREAM] and [MPLS-MCAST-ENCAPS]. If a subset of does not support upstream label assignment these procedures can still be used between Ru and the remaining sub- set of . Ingress replication and downstream label assign- ment will continue to be used for LSRs that do not support upstream label assignment. 6.2. LDP P2MP LSPs [LDP-P2MP1, LDP-P2MP2] describe how to setup P2MP LSPs using LDP. On a LAN the solution relies on "ingress replication", as in [RSVP-TE- P2MP]. It is desirable for Ru to send a single copy of the packet for the LDP P2MP LSP on the LAN, when there are multiple downstream routers on the LAN that are adjacent to Ru in that LDP P2MP LSP. It is possi- ble to achieve this using LDP upstream-assigned labels with the fol- lowing procedures. Consider a LSR Rd that receives the LDP P2MP FEC [LDP-P2MP1, LDP- P2MP2] from its downstream LDP peer. Further the upstream interface to reach LSR Ru which is the next-hop to the P2MP LSP root address, Pr, in the LDP P2MP FEC, is a LAN interface. Further Rd and Ru sup- port upstream-assigned labels. In this case Rd instead of sending a Label Mapping message as described in [LDP-P2MP1, LDP-P2MP2] sends a Label Request message to Ru. This Label Request message MUST contain an Upstream Assigned Label Request TLV. Ru on receiving this message sends back a Label Mapping message to Rd with an upstream-assigned label. Processing of the Label Request and Label Mapping messages for LDP upstream-assigned labels is as described in section 4.2. If Ru receives a Label Request for an upstream assigned label for the same P2MP FEC from multiple downstream LSRs on the LAN, , it MUST send the same upstream-assigned label to each of . Ru transmits the MPLS packet with an upstream-assigned label on the LAN using the procedures defined in [MPLS-UPSTREAM] and [MPLS-MCAST- ENCAPS]. Note that may have more than one equal cost next-hop on the LAN to reach Pr. In this case they MAY be configured to send the upstream assigned label request to the next-hop LSR with the lowest Router ID, if it is desirable for all of them to send the label request to the same upstream LSR. It is also to be noted that these Raggarwa & LeRoux [Page 9] Internet Draftdraft-raggarwa-mpls-rsvp-ldp-upstream-00.txt July 2005 procedures can still be used by Rd and Ru if other LSRs on the LAN do not support upstream label assignment. Ingress replication and down- stream label assignment will continue to be used for LSRs that do not support upstream label assignment. 7.
