Network Working Group Y. Tanaka Internet-Draft Y. Kamite Intended status: Standards Track NTT Communications Expires: August 22, 2013 Feb 18, 2013 Make-Before-Break MPLS-TE LSP restoration and reoptimization procedure using Stateful PCE draft-tanaka-pce-stateful-pce-mbb-00 Abstract Stateful PCE (Path Computation Element) and its corresponding protocol extensions provide a mechanism that enables PCE to do stateful control of MPLS Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSP). Stateful PCE supports manipulating the existing LSP's state and attributes (e.g., bandwidth and route) and also creating totally new LSPs in the network. In the current MPLS TE network using RSVP-TE, LSPs are often controlled by "make-before-break (M-B-B)" signaling by headend for the purpose of LSP restoration and reoptimization. In most cases, it is an essential operation to reroute LSP traffic without any data disruption. This document specifies the procedure of applying Stateful PCE's control to make-before-break RSVP-TE signaling. In this document, two types of restoration/reoptimization procedures are defined, one- stroke mode and granular mode. This document also specifies the usage and handling of stateful PCEP (PCE Communication Protocol) messages, expected behavior of PCC as RSVP-TE headend and several extensions of additional objects.

Introduction [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] describes the Stateful Path Computation Elements(PCE). Stateful PCE defines the extensions to PCEP to enable stateful control of LSPs between and across PCEP sessions, and it also describes mechanisms to effect LSP state synchronization between PCCs and PCEs, and PCE control of timing and sequence of path computations within and across PCEP sessions. [I-D.crabbe-pce-stateful-pce-protection] describes the extensions for the setup and management of MPLS-TE LSP path protection by PCE. This specification is focused on the control of protection path, making protection paths which are pre-signaled ahead of the failure or set up after the failure. The proposed extension is beneficial for PCEs to place several act/standby LSPs for protection purposes in MPLS network. Today, however, there is no detailed procedure specified as to how to restore and reoptimize one particular MPLS-TE LSP using stateful PCE. In today's MPLS RSVP-TE mechanism, make-before-break (M-B-B) is a widely common scheme supported by headend LER in order to assure no traffic disruption during restoration and reoptimization. Hence it is naturally desirable for stateful PCE to control M-B-B based signaling and forwarding process. This document specifies the definite procedures of applying Stateful PCE's control to M-B-B method. In this document, two types of restoration/reoptimization procedures are defined, one-stroke mode and granular mode. This document also specifies the usage and handling of stateful PCEP (PCE Communication Protocol) messages, expected behavior of PCC as RSVP-TE headend and several extensions of additional objects. 2. Conventions used in this document 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 RFC2119[RFC2119]. 3. Terminology This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC5440]: PCC, PCE, PCEP Peer. This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC3209]: make- before-break. Tanaka & Kamite Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 4] Internet-Draft M-B-B procedure using Stateful PCE Feb 2013 This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC4426] and [RFC4427]: recovery, protection, restoration. According to their definition the term "recovery" is generically used to denote both protection and restoration; the specific terms "protection" and "restoration" are used only when differentiation is required. The subtle distinction between protection and restoration is made based on the resource allocation done during the recovery period. Hence the protection allocates LSP resource in advance of a failure, while the restoration allocates LSP after a failure occur. 4. Motivation As for current MPLS mechanism, make-before-break(M-B-B) concept is outlined in [RFC3209], which allows adaptive and smooth RSVP-TE LSP rerouting that does not disrupt traffic or adversely impact network operations while rerouting is in progress. M-B-B is applicable for reoptimizing LSP's route and resources for several use cases, for example, to adopt better path for reversion after failure, to change traversing node/links for planned maintenance, to change bandwidth of LSPs. M-B-B is also used for global restoration scenario in case of failure, which is effective if operators do not want to reserve both working and standby LSPs' bandwidth in advance. In real deployment, it can also be operated with local protection scheme FRR (Fast ReRoute). Since M-B-B operational scheme is universally common in MPLS network today, it is naturally much desirable to utilize it under the architecture of Stateful PCE. The basicprocedure of Make-Before-Break is outlined as follows, 1. Establish a new LSP 2. Transfer data traffic from old LSP onto the new LSP 3. Tear down the old LSP In M-B-B, it is an important behavior that headend node treats the sequence of data traffic switchover. The headend is able to "make" one or more new LSPs for a particular Tunnel (i.e., it is allowed to signal multiple RSVP sessions with different LSP-IDs that share a common Tunnel IDs), and the headend will switch the traffic upon only one (or some) of those LSPs. In some use cases about stateful PCE, it is expected that operators can watch and control when the data is switched over and which LSPs are used. Therefore, this document covers such a procedure and related message extensions. Tanaka & Kamite Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 5] Internet-Draft M-B-B procedure using Stateful PCE Feb 2013 5. Make-Before-Break LSP procedures There are possibly two modes introduced for Make-Before-Break procedure under stateful PCE. The first one is "one stroke M-B-B mode", where the operation is triggered by a PC Update Request(PCUpd) message from a PCE, and a PCC handles whole Make-Before-Break steps (signaling and transferring data traffic) for itself. This mode utilizes the existing messages as defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] and [I-D.crabbe-pce-stateful-pce-mpls-te]. The second one is "granular M-B-B mode", where the operation is triggered by a LSP Create Request(PCCreate) message from a PCE, and a PCE also controls timing and sequence of each granular step that a PCC takes. This procedure additionally uses a new extended TLV that is defined in Section 6.1 Both types of procedure require at least two LSPs residing in a single MPLS-TE tunnel, working LSP and restoration LSP. An ingress node is currently transporting data traffic on the working LSP, and then it establishes one or more restoration LSPs. As per [RFC3209] Section 2.5. "LSP ID" of restoration LSP, which is newly signaled, differs from that of restoration LSP. In this document, LSP ID of a working LSP describes "old" and that of a restoration LSP describes "new" as a simple example. One-stroke mode has high affinity with most existing MPLS edge node implementations which perform entire steps of M-B-B automatically at once. This mode is particularly applicable for migration scenario for the existing deployment where service providers want their recovery operation be delegated to centralized PCE. Granular mode is much more flexible than One-stroke mode since it allows PCEs to manage each LSP step-by-step. Granular mode is applicable to several new use cases that require split control of signaling and data switchover. For example, if end-to-end data path is created by connecting multiple individual LSPs across different segments (e.g., LSP stitching), in reoptimization scenario, data flowing cannot be started unless all signaling of all LSPs are completed. Similarly, there is a case under Software Defined Network (SDN) applications, where MPLS domain is connected to other non-MPLS domains, and the end-to-end data switchover timing should be carefully coordinated with various different methods of path/flow setup in each domain. PCC and PCE can distinguish which mode, one stroke mode or granular mode, is to be performed by checking the type of PCEP messages that are exchanged. The implementation MAY support both modes, but for Tanaka & Kamite Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 6] Internet-Draft M-B-B procedure using Stateful PCE Feb 2013 each restoration/reoptimization operation, either one of them SHOULD be exclusively selected. 5.1. One Stroke Make-Before-Break Mode This specifies the detailed procedure of M-B-B LSP restoration and reoptimization using exsisting messages which are defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] and [I-D.crabbe-pce-stateful-pce-protection]. This procedure is based on the current existing messages/TLVs and no extended TLV is used. Once a PCC receives PCUpd message from a PCE, the PCC automatically executes the one stroke M-B-B procedure. First, A PCUpd message is sent from PCE to trigger M-B-B procecure. This PCUpd message MUST carry a LSP Object with LSP Identifiers TLV. LSP Identifiers TLV format is specified in [I-D.crabbe-pce-stateful-pce-mpls-te]. This TLV contains the value for a desired new LSP ID. If the specified LSP ID value is a non-zero and is not currently used by the exsisting RSVP-TE sessions about the corresponding tunnel owned by the PCC, that value MUST be used for next signaling by PCC as headend, i.e., "make" a new LSP for restoration. If the value is already used in the existing network in the specified tunnel, a PCC replies a PCEP Error message as defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] with Error-type-19(Invalid Operation) and Error-Value=[TBD](Value already in use). If the specified LSP ID value is zero, the PCC MUST automatically assign a new LSP ID to signal restoration LSP. A PCC replies PCEP Error message to a PCE if a PCUpd does not carry LSP Identifiers TLV nor SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV. Error-type- 6(Mandatory Object Missing) and Error-Value=[TBD](See Section 7.2). If LSP Identifiers TLV or SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV in a PCUpd message is specifying non-delegated LSP, the PCC sends PCErr as defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce]. Second, once a restoration LSP is successfully established, a PCC transfers data traffic from working LSP to restoration LSP. If the restoration LSP failed in setup, the PCC MAY retry RSVP-TE signaling with possibly different attributes. Finally, when a PCC successfully transfered data traffic to restoration LSP, the PCC tears down the (previous) working LSP by RSVP-TE signaling, then the PCC MUST send a PCRpt message. That PCRpt message MUST carry a LSP Object with LSP Identifiers TLV which Tanaka & Kamite Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 7] Internet-Draft M-B-B procedure using Stateful PCE Feb 2013 indicates the value of RSVP-TE signaling the PCC has just established. Following Figure 1 illustrates the example of one stroke M-B-B procedure, in following conditions. working LSP : ERO=a-b, Tunnel ID=T1, LSP ID=old restoration LSP : ERO=a-c-b, Tunnel ID=T1, LSP ID=new __c__ / \ PCE PCC(Ingress)--a-------b---Egress | | | | Data on old LSP =>)))))))))))))))))))))))| | | : | |--PCUpd(O=1, --> | : | | Tunnel ID=T1, | | | LSP ID=new, |---Path(ERO=a-c-b-, --> | | ERO=a-c-b) | LSP ID new) | | | | | | <-----Resv-------------| | | | | Transfer data |))))))))))))))))))))))))| | from old to new =>}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}| | | : | | | : | | |---PathTear(ERO=a-b, -> | | | LSP ID old) | | <-- PCRpt(O=1, ----| | | Tunnel ID=T1, | | | LSP ID=new, | | | RRO=a-c-b) | | O flag = Operational flag in LSP object. Figure 1: One Stroke Make-Before-Break Procedure Figure 1 5.2. Granular Make-Before-Break Mode Compareing to the one stroke M-B-B mode, Granular M-B-B mode allows a PCE to control timing and sequence of subsequent make-before-break steps as follows. First, the PCE initiates PCC's signaling of a new LSP by sending a LSP Create Request(PCCreate) message. Second, the PCE instructs the PCC to transfer data traffic from old LSP to new LSP by sending a PC Tanaka & Kamite Expires August 22, 2013 [Page 8] Internet-Draft M-B-B procedure using Stateful PCE Feb 2013 Update Request(PCUpd) message with extension TLV that are defined in this document. Third, the PCE instructs the PCC to tear down the old LSP by sending a PCUpd message indicating LSP removal. Note that this procedure uses not only PC Update Request(PCUpd) but also LSP Create Request(PCCreate) message that are defined in [I-D.crabbe-pce-pce-initiated-lsp]. The following subsections specify each Make-Before-Break steps in detail. 5.2.1. Establish new LSP triggered by a PCCreate message As a first step of M-B-B procedure, a PCC establishes a restoration LSP once PCC receives PCCreate message from a PCE. This document defines a PCCreate message MUST have a LSP Object with LSP Identifiers TLV, which is used to specify Tunnel ID and the new LSP ID that the PCC must establish. [I-D.crabbe-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] defines that PCCreate message MUST contain LSPA object with SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV. Regarding SYMBOLIC- PATH-NAME TLV, [I-D.crabbe-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] describes that SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV is mandatory and that value must not have conflict with LSP name of any existing LSP in the PCC. If this specification is applied directly, PCE has to allocate different symbolic path name for every signaling of "make" procedure. If conflict happens, it leads to PCEP Error from PCC. (authors' note: it needs further study about treatment of SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV particularly if there is a requirement for using the same symbolic path name for reoptimization and restoration.) When a new LSP was signaled successfully, the PCC sends a PCRpt message toward the PCE to notify the result by setting Operational flag 1 in the LSP object. A PCRpt message from the PCC MUST have the LSP object with LSP Identifiers TLV that indicates Tunnel ID and LSP ID the PCC has just established. If a new LSP failed to be established by some reason of RSVP-TE signaling, the PCC MUST send PCRpt message carrying LSP Identifiers TLV and RSVP-ERROR-SPEC TLV as defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] Section 7.2.2. to the PCE. Figure 2 illustrates a example, working LSP(Tunnel ID T1, LSP-ID old, ERO Ingress-a-b-Egress), restoration LSP(Tunnel ID T1, LSP-ID new, ERO Ingress-a-c-b-Egress).

Transfer Data Traffic triggered by a PCUpd message As a second step, PCC(Ingress) transfers data traffic from primary LSP to restoration LSP. To specify transferring data traffic, this document introduces a new TLV, called Data Contro TLV. PCUpd carries the Data Control TLV, which is used for transferring data traffic from one LSP to another(See Section 6.1). And PCUpd also carries a LSP Identifiers TLV to specify the Tunnel ID and LSP ID that data traffic will get onto. Once the PCC receives the PCUpd message with LSP Identifier TLV and Data Control TLV in LSP Object, the PCC MSUT transfer data traffic from old LSP to new LSP immediately.(See Figure 3) If the LSP Identifiers TLV in the PCUpd message specifies invalid LSP, PCErr MUST be sent out from the PCC to the PCE.

Figure 3: Transfer data traffic from old LSP to new LSP Figure 3 5.2.3. Tear Down old LSP triggered by a PCUpd message As a final step of Make-Before-Break procedure, the PCC tears down the primary LSP which the data traffic is no longer used, by the PCUpd message from the PCE server. The PCC MUST tear down the LSP immediately once the PCC receives the PCUpd message setting Remove(R) flag 1. The PCUpd message MUST carry LSP Identifiers TLV specifing Tunnel ID and LSP ID that will be torn down in the LSP Object.(See Figure 4). Note that the PCC MUST tear down only the LSP that is specified in LSP Identifiers TLV.

The type of the TLV is [TBD] and it has a fixed length of 8 octets. The value contains the following fields: Flags D (Data traffic - 1 bit): Data traffic(D) bit indicates the Data traffic MUST get onto the LSP. PCUpd message for Granular M-B-B mode uses this flag. If there are multiple LSPs in a single Tunnel, all data traffic will go through only the LSP that is specified by LSP Object which contains this TLV, and stop data traffic through the other LSPs. Load Balance TLV(Optional TLV) This field is used for load balancing and is available only when the Data(D) flag is positive. Load Balance type - 7 bit : This field indicates the type of load balance.(i.e. Hash function, Round-Robin, ToS base) Continue flag - 1 bit : If this flag set to 1, it indicates the next LSP Object in the PCUpd has also Load Balance TLV. If this flag set to 0, it indicates no more LSP Object continues and load balance calculation will be completed, then Load Balance MUST be activated. Type of Service - 8 bit: This field is used when the Load Balance type specifies ToS base. Otherwise, this field is to be Zero. Percentage field - 16 bit : This field specifies ratio of load balance. The sum of this field across subsequent LSP Object has to be hundred percent. 7. IANA Considerations 7.1.
