Title : Advertisement of the Group Best Paths in BGP Author(s) : E. Chen, N. Chen Filename : draft-chen-bgp-group-path-update-02.txt Pages : 14 Date : 2004-9-29 In this document we first identify the (neighbor-AS based) Group Best Paths for an address prefix as the sufficient subset that can be advertised by a BGP route reflector or a BGP confederation ASBR to eliminate the MED-type route oscillations in a network. We then propose a BGP extension to support the advertisement of the Group Best Paths by a route reflector or a confederation ASBR. The extension also allows the advertisement of all the paths in a group that survive the MED comparison, thus achieving the same routing consistency as the full IBGP mesh. The proposed mechanisms are designed such that the vast majority of the BGP speakers in a network need only minor software changes in order to deploy the mechanisms.

Perhaps this would be clearer, if you included a sample of the output as well as the nroff source. Also, I interpret the nroff you provide to indicate the "none" now goes where "Network Working Group" used to go. Is this true generally, or is it only true for this example? -- Eric Gray Yakov Rekhter wrote: >Folks, > >Please be aware that enforcement of the new draft boilerplate starts >today (09.28.2004). > >Yakov. > >P.S.

Lets not get silly here. There is no such thing as a TCP implementation that does not apply backpressure (ie: doesn't withhold the ACKs if the reader hasn't emptied the buffer) and it is also a violation of the protocol to tell the other side that your receive buffer is bigger than it really is. So the TCP flow is always bufferred on the receive side in the socket layer (or whatever it is called in some other implementation) and the sending side always stops sending due to lack of ACKs. If not someone's TCP implementation is broken and needs to be fixed. > I saw the end of RIB marker and the FT state bit in of the other drafts and > was wondering if that may have usage in this case.

You should be sending keepalives anyway and should not declare that the session is dead on the basis that you haven't read from the socket in 90-180 seconds. All of this is implementation details and not really in scope for discussion of the protocol on this list. Plus it has come up numerous times in the last 10-12 years and has been discussed, sometimes in great detail, and answered numerous times. This is not a mailing list for newbie questions. If you need a review of basic TCP operation this is not the place for it.

I saw the end of RIB marker and the FT state bit in of the other drafts and was wondering if that may have usage in this case. In other words, one would have to ack the receipt for an End of RIB marker/FT state intact eitherways for that feature to be implementable.

I said so because BGP builds on the concept of best route and just one next-hop, not multiple ones.

You asked me why not adapt BGP to advertise multiple syntentic AS-paths and nexthops, because the nexthops are being used. I ask you which spec says there will be multiple BGP next-hops to begin with. The whole concept of multiple next-hops seems questionable to me. For simplicity, BGP should have only one next-hop. Whatever happens below BGP (e.g., whether that next-hop address is anycasted, loadbalanced using IGPs, recursively resolved or whatever) should be irrelevant to the BGP advertisements themselves. -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds."

If you are referring to the following: : An UPDATE message that contains the MP_UNREACH_NLRI is not required : to carry any other path attributes. This is considerably different than SHALL NOT or MUST NOT. This caveat in 2858-bis is present to make it allowable to send an UPDATE message with just a single path attribute, which would be illegal under draft-25 style BGP-4 since it is missing mandatory path attributes.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by changing the way BGP works in a "relatively fundamental way"? All this draft says is that a router should advertise all its equal cost BGP routes to its IBGP peers *if* its using them. The reason why its advertising these routes is because its *using* them itself. YOu dont want routing and forwarding to go different ways. Then, since you are using multiple paths, you ought to tell everybody else of this. So, you construct a synthetic as-path and advertise that to your EBGP peers.

If I understand your proposals correctly, then your draft relies on the BGP decision process implementing the feature commonly known as Deterministic MED, and also relies on the feature commonly known as 'Always Compare MED' being disabled. Have I understood this correctly? If so, then I think it would be helpful to state this explicitly. I know these are features which are not formally defined in a draft (so far as I am aware), but they are features which are commonly available, and so allowance should be made for them. 2. From an implementation point of view, I think it would be helpful to clarify what a BGP speaker should do if it wants to replace the previous set of best paths with a single new one. I believe that your current proposal would require that speaker to send 2 update messages, with the first containing a withdrawal for the prefix with the neighbor-AS set to 0 and the 2nd containing the single replacement route. Since these two pieces of information are carried in different sections of the BGP update message, it might be simpler to allow them to be carried in the same message, although I believe this requires explicit description to allow it.

Like the other path attributes ORIGIN, AS_PATH, etc. ECMP_NEXT_HOP too applies to all the NLRIs listed in an UPDATE message. If in this case you had an additional next-hop for only 10.0.0/24, you could announce this information in the following two ways. Let the additional NEXT_HOP be 192.168.1.3 (i) In addition to the above UPDATE message you could announce another one containing WD_NLRI: NULL Path Attributes: + Origin - IGP + AS_PATH - 65535 + ECMP_NEXT_HOP o AFI - 1 (ipv4) o SAFI - 1 (unicast) o NUM NEXTHOPs - 1 o LENGTH - 4 o MP_NEXTHOP - 192.168.1.3 NLRI: 10.0.0/24 The IBGP peer upon receiving this UPDATE message will know that it needs to append this route rather than replace. (ii) You could announce the following two UPDATE messages. WD_NLRI: NULL Path Attributes: + Origin - IGP + AS_PATH - 65535 + NEXT_HOP - 192.168.1.1 + ECMP_NEXT_HOP o AFI - 1 (ipv4) o SAFI - 1 (unicast) o NUM NEXTHOPs - 1 o LENGTH - 4 o MP_NEXTHOP - 192.168.1.3 NLRI: 10.0.0/24 and WD_NLRI: NULL Path Attributes: + Origin - IGP + AS_PATH - 65535 + MP_REACH_NLRI o AFI - 1 (ipv4) o SAFI - 1 (unicast) o MP_NEXTHOP - 192.168.1.2 o MP_NLRI - 10.0.1/24 How you advertise the routes depends upon the time (apart from your implementation) at which the information about this additional NEXT_HOP is known to the originating router.

Could you elaborate on why using the ordinary NEXT_HOP for implicit withdrawls makes you feel uneasy? We think having such a mechanism in place, makes it easier to understand the new capability (everybody is familiar with how implicit withdrawls work) and introduces no additional burden on the implementation. The way it works is that any time you receive an UPDATE message with ECMP_NEXT_HOP, you know that the route needs to be appended and not replaced! Let me explain what i think you are suggesting. Correct me if i am wrong. Lets assume we have two next-hops N1 and N2 for a NLRI. Say after some point, we get another one N3. You suggest that we should now announce ECMP_NEXT_HOP N1, N2 and N3. That way, whenever you receive a new UPDATE, you always treat that as an implicit withdraw, the way BGP works now. Is that it? I would prefer the former approach because there can be cases (L3 VPN NLRIs, etc) where the NLRI may be clubbed with some information (labels, etc) that may make it non unique. In such cases, its much easier to use the mechanism that we have described.

Anyways, there isn't anything in this draft that precludes this. Assume that a PE router has two next-hops to reach some NLRI x.y.z.w. Let L1 and L2 be the labels associated with these next-hops. It could send this information the following way WD_NLRI: NULL Path Attributes: + Origin - IGP + AS_PATH - 65535 + MP_REACH_NLRI o AFI - IPv4 o SAFI - VPN o MP_NEXTHOP - 0::192.168.1.2 o MP_NLRI - L1:RD:x.y.z.w and WD_NLRI: NULL Path Attributes: + Origin - IGP + AS_PATH - 65535 + MP_REACH_NLRI o AFI - IPv4 o SAFI - VPN o MP_NEXTHOP - 0 o MP_NLRI - L2:RD:x.y.z.w + ECMP_NEXT_HOP o AFI - IPv4 o SAFI - VPN o NUM NEXTHOPs - 1 o LENGTH - 4 o MP_NEXTHOP - 0::192.168.1.3 > > ]I'm most concerned about the synthesized AS_PATH. > > ] o In some circumstances, particularly with large AS_SETs, it will not > > ] be possible to preserve path length. > > > > Could you give me an example to illustrate this? > > 10/8 NH a Path 1 2 [<255 ASes>] > 10/8 NH b Path 3 4 [<255 ASes>] I believe, the above means that each AS_PATH contains 2 ASes in AS_SEQ and one large AS_SET containing 255 ASes against, each path having 257 ASes in AS_SEQ. > > Resulting advertisement: > 10/8 ECMP NH a,b Path [1 3] [2 4] [<first part of first path/second path>] > [<second part of first path/second path>] Refer to Sec. 16.1 on how we construct the synthetic AS Paths in cases where the contributing AS Paths consist of AS_SETs. Resulting advertisement will be: 10/8 ECMP NH a,b Path [1 3] [2 4] [<255 ASes from the first path> <255 ASes in the second path>] The problem of over flowing that will occur in constructing this extremely large AS_SET is also present in ordinary BGP, and yes, something that we need to work upon! > > Note that this presumes that the set elements in the original > advertisement are disjoint and thus not prone to merging. > > The path is thus lengthened. Yes. If we have more than 255 ASes present in the AS_SET, then we may need to prepend a new segment of type AS_SET, which will increase the path length, as each AS_SET is counted as 1, irrespective of the number of ASes present in the set. However, this can be easily avoided by introducing a new path segment type AS_EXT_SET (value 3) which will have exactly the same semantics as the existing AS_SET, except that it wont be considered when counting the AS_PATH length. > > > ] o Processing ECMP routes into paths of equivalent length with many > > ] AS_SETs will impact AS_PATH regular expression engines. > > ] o The set merging rules of BGP (9.2.2.2, draft 25) can result > > ] in the AS_PATH being shortened. > > > > I am sorry, I didn't get this! > > As for the first: > > I get [1 3] [2 4] (rest) > > Previously I would have gotten 1 2 (rest) or 3 4 (rest). > > I can do a regular expression that says "Match 1 2 .*$" and prefer this > path. You really cant run your regular expression here that says "match 1 2 .$" because now your traffic will be split across paths "1 2 (rest)" and "3 4 (rest)".

I think what makes me uncomfortable with this mechanism is implicitly using the normal NEXT_HOP as a reset mechanism. Just from a coding standpoint, I'd rather see either no normal nexthop and a set of ECMP nexthops which always have an implicit withdrawal behavior or no ECMP nexthops at all. > ]It's somewhat unclear whether a length of zero in the > ]MP nexthop case is the proper mechanism. > > This needs to be added.

As for the first: I get [1 3] [2 4] (rest) Previously I would have gotten 1 2 (rest) or 3 4 (rest). I can do a regular expression that says "Match 1 2 .*$" and prefer this path. The behavior of AS Path regular expressions in the presence of sets is ambiguous at best and not really documented. However, adjacency tests don't make clear sense in the presence of sets, especially given the merging rules. Per the aggregation rules, one would typically not see sets such as [1 3] [2 4] in the net. An implementation would typically create [1 2 3 4] as part of aggregation. Generating separate sets is a deviation from the specification, but not a mandatory one: - for each pair of adjacent tuples in the aggregated AS_PATH, if both tuples have the same type, merge them together, as long as doing so will not cause a segment with length greater than 255 to be generated. The multiple set element encoding doesn't break BGP, but it makes a presumption that really isn't all that clear in -25. That presumption is that an implementation will not take adjacent set elements and merge them. Also, it presumes that an implementation wont choose to clean up sets of the form: [1 2] [3 4] [3 4] where the original was: 1 3 3 2 4 4 As by the aggregation rules, a given set element should exist within the AS_PATH only once. I suspect it would be ... instructive to find out what various implementations do with odd AS_PATHs as would be generated by the synthetic AS_PATH. > Manav -- Jeff Haas NextHop Technologies _______________________________________________ Idr mailing list Idr@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr Received: from megatron.ietf.org (megatron.ietf.org [132.151.6.71]) by nic.merit.edu (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id FAA23967 for <idr-archive@nic.merit.edu>; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 05:46:59 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost.localdomain ([127.0.0.1] helo=megatron.ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1CA3hD-0008HA-E2; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 05:45:55 -0400 Received: from odin.ietf.org ([132.151.1.176] helo=ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1CA3a3-0006i2-O9 for idr@megatron.ietf.org; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 05:38:31 -0400 Received: from ietf-mx.ietf.org (ietf-mx.ietf.org [132.151.6.1]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id FAA17536 for <idr@ietf.org>; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 05:38:26 -0400 (EDT) Received: from mail.riverstonenet.com ([63.113.148.10] helo=riverstonenet.com) by ietf-mx.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.33) id 1CA3gZ-0002Y4-2r for idr@ietf.org; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 05:45:15 -0400 Received: from rs-sc-exc8.rs.riverstonenet.com by riverstonenet.com (8.9.3+Sun/SMI-SVR4-Yago) id CAA24969; Wed, 22 Sep 2004 02:37:55 -0700 (PDT) Received: from legolas.rs.riverstonenet.com ([134.141.176.109]) by rs-sc-exc8.rs.riverstonenet.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.6713); Wed, 22 Sep 2004 02:37:09 -0700 Received: from Floyd ([172.24.2.233]) by legolas.rs.riverstonenet.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.0); Wed, 22 Sep 2004 02:37:08 -0700 From: "Manav Bhatia" <manav@riverstonenet.com> To: "'Jeffrey Haas'" <jhaas@nexthop.com>, <idr@ietf.org> Subject: RE: [Idr] FW: I-D ACTION:draft-bhatia-ecmp-routes-in-bgp-01.txt Date: Wed, 22 Sep 2004 15:05:50 +0530 Organization: Riverstone Networks MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Microsoft Office Outlook, Build 11.0.5510 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2180 In-Reply-To: <20040920203451.GE29033@nexthop.com> Thread-Index: AcSfWuyvwpk+JUhiSj+aVULnbmxTUgBKeGcQ Message-ID: <LEGOLASJy0CMIvJiZ3o0000031e@legolas.rs.riverstonenet.com> X-OriginalArrivalTime: 22 Sep 2004 09:37:08.0852 (UTC) FILETIME=[BAD13B40:01C4A087] X-Spam-Score: 0.0 (/) X-Scan-Signature: 386e0819b1192672467565a524848168 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: X-BeenThere: idr@ietf.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: manav@riverstonenet.com List-Id: Inter-Domain Routing <idr.ietf.org> List-Unsubscribe: <https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr>, <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=unsubscribe> List-Archive: <http://www1.ietf.org/pipermail/idr> List-Post: <mailto:idr@ietf.org> List-Help: <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=help> List-Subscribe: <https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr>, <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=subscribe> Sender: idr-bounces@ietf.org Errors-To: idr-bounces@ietf.org Jeff, ]MP-BGP encoding issues: ]RFC 2858 documents the MP-BGP format. While I'm not aware of ]any implementations that do this, one valid interpretation of ]RFC 2858 is that it is legal to encode IPv4 unicast data both ]within the original BGP NLRI fields and the NEXT_HOP path ]attribute simultaneously with the information in the ]MP_(UN)REACH_NLRI fields and have the information be different. Sure. This works here too. You can differentiate between the different next-hops in ECMP_NEXT_HOP also. <AFI=1, SAFI=1> in ECMP_NEXT_HOP would correspond to the BGP NLRI and the additional next-hops, while matching values of <AFI,SAFI> in ECMP_NEXT_HOP will match MP_(UN)REACH_NLRI. ] ]Aside from the somewhat contrived issue above, could you ]clarify the behavior for MP-BGP processing for the MP nexthop? Scenario 1: Say you have 2 equal cost paths for an IPv6 prefix with similar path attributes. These can be advertised as follows: You put the first MP nexthop and the NLRI in MP_REACH_NLRI. You are now left with another MP nexthop. You use ECMP_NEXT_HOP path attribute for this. Put the same AFI, SAFI, length and network address of the MP nexthop in ECMP_NEXT_HOP and advertise this to the remote peer. Scenario 2: You have already advertised one MP_REACH_NLRI and you receive another equal cost BGP route for the same NLRI (possibly with a different set of path attributes). You now encode the new information the following way: Put the NLRI in MP_REACH_NLRI. Set the length and the address of the MP nexthop as Zero. Put this MP nexthop info in ECMP_NEXT_HOP and advertise this to your IBGP peer. It will append this route, as it has been advertised with ECMP_NEXT_HOP. ] What I would suspect from reading this document is that when ]the MP nexthop is specified (length of nexthop != 0) that it ]should also behave as an implicit withdrawal of the ECMP ]paths. Yes, if an implementation receives an UPDATE message with MP nexthop inside MP_REACH_NLRI, then it shall consider this as an implicit withdrawal of the previous advertised paths. ]It's somewhat unclear whether a length of zero in the ]MP nexthop case is the proper mechanism. This needs to be added. ] ]I would suggest some additional language noting that the ]implicit withdrawal case (advertise a withdrawal and new NLRI ]simultaneously) should be processed as just implicit ]withdrawals.

You mean, receiving a prefix with multiple labels? IMO a PE can do load splitting in whatever manner it wants to. It doesn't need to inform the other PE that there is more than one next-hop available to reach a destination. Basically its something similar to what we have done for EBGP peers. ] ]I'm most concerned about the synthesized AS_PATH. ] o In some circumstances, particularly with large AS_SETs, it will not ] be possible to preserve path length.

Yuan Filename : draft-ietf-idr-bgp-identifier-04.txt Pages : 5 Date : 2004-9-21 To accommodate situations where the current requirements for the BGP Identifier are not met, this document relaxes the definition of the BGP Identifier to be a 4-octet unsigned, non-zero integer, and relaxes the 'uniqueness' requirement so that only AS-wide uniqueness of the BGP Identifiers is required.

If you are referring to the following: : An UPDATE message that contains the MP_UNREACH_NLRI is not required : to carry any other path attributes. This is considerably different than SHALL NOT or MUST NOT. This caveat in 2858-bis is present to make it allowable to send an UPDATE message with just a single path attribute, which would be illegal under draft-25 style BGP-4 since it is missing mandatory path attributes.

MP-BGP encoding issues: RFC 2858 documents the MP-BGP format. While I'm not aware of any implementations that do this, one valid interpretation of RFC 2858 is that it is legal to encode IPv4 unicast data both within the original BGP NLRI fields and the NEXT_HOP path attribute simultaneously with the information in the MP_(UN)REACH_NLRI fields and have the information be different. Aside from the somewhat contrived issue above, could you clarify the behavior for MP-BGP processing for the MP nexthop? What I would suspect from reading this document is that when the MP nexthop is specified (length of nexthop != 0) that it should also behave as an implicit withdrawal of the ECMP paths. It's somewhat unclear whether a length of zero in the MP nexthop case is the proper mechanism. I would suggest some additional language noting that the implicit withdrawal case (advertise a withdrawal and new NLRI simultaneously) should be processed as just implicit withdrawals. This may cause churn in some implementations that may process the unfeasible routes component of an update and then the feasible routes separately. Similarly, this would suggest that implementations will need to carry MP_REACH_NLRI and MP_UNREACH_NLRI simultaneously. Some implementations do not appear to do this currently. Interactions with RFC 3107 Sect. 4, if any, would be good to have in this document. I'm most concerned about the synthesized AS_PATH. o In some circumstances, particularly with large AS_SETs, it will not be possible to preserve path length. o Processing ECMP routes into paths of equivalent length with many AS_SETs will impact AS_PATH regular expression engines. o The set merging rules of BGP (9.2.2.2, draft 25) can result in the AS_PATH being shortened. -- Jeff Haas NextHop Technologies _______________________________________________ Idr mailing list Idr@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr Received: from megatron.ietf.org (megatron.ietf.org [132.151.6.71]) by nic.merit.edu (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id MAA03653 for <idr-archive@nic.merit.edu>; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 12:08:25 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost.localdomain ([127.0.0.1] helo=megatron.ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1C9QZm-0000Gs-Bp; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 11:59:38 -0400 Received: from odin.ietf.org ([132.151.1.176] helo=ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1C9QSP-0006x9-Mn for idr@megatron.ietf.org; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 11:52:02 -0400 Received: from ietf-mx.ietf.org (ietf-mx.ietf.org [132.151.6.1]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id LAA14630 for <idr@ietf.org>; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 11:51:59 -0400 (EDT) Received: from bay17-f31.bay17.hotmail.com ([64.4.43.81] helo=hotmail.com) by ietf-mx.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.33) id 1C9QYa-0000YQ-1b for idr@ietf.org; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 11:58:25 -0400 Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 08:41:42 -0700 Received: from 61.16.170.194 by by17fd.bay17.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Mon, 20 Sep 2004 15:41:42 GMT X-Originating-IP: [61.16.170.194] X-Originating-Email: [johnsmith0302@hotmail.com] X-Sender: johnsmith0302@hotmail.com From: "john smith" <johnsmith0302@hotmail.com> To: manav@riverstonenet.com, idr@ietf.org Subject: RE: [Idr] Re: weights in BGP Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2004 15:41:42 +0000 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: <BAY17-F31YxdxJZrZIW00040a3e@hotmail.com> X-OriginalArrivalTime: 20 Sep 2004 15:41:42.0794 (UTC) FILETIME=[53E066A0:01C49F28] X-Spam-Score: 0.9 (/) X-Scan-Signature: 0bc60ec82efc80c84b8d02f4b0e4de22 Cc: X-BeenThere: idr@ietf.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Inter-Domain Routing <idr.ietf.org> List-Unsubscribe: <https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr>, <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=unsubscribe> List-Archive: <http://www1.ietf.org/pipermail/idr> List-Post: <mailto:idr@ietf.org> List-Help: <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=help> List-Subscribe: <https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr>, <mailto:idr-request@ietf.org?subject=subscribe> Sender: idr-bounces@ietf.org Errors-To: idr-bounces@ietf.org Hi Manav, awaiting a reply, Do you also suggest I should use local_pref on incoming eBGP peering?

In particular, it proposes to use a single AFI/SAFI combination (AFI=TBD; SAFI=VPN) and to use an "ATM Reachability Type" field in the NLRI to distinguish between different types of ATM addresses: NSAP, E.164, etc. After this draft was presented in San Diego, we received questions why there is a need for a new AFI considering that there are already existing AFIs for NSAP, E.164 and X.121. We would like to solicit input from the mailing list on this issue. In our opinion, the use of a new AFI/SAFI value for a combination of ATM addresses is justified. ATM is used as the unifying protocol for carrying Frame Relay, SMDS and other traffic. As a consequence, over time, ATM has incorporated multiple address families like X.121, SMDS-related addresses and vendor-proprietary addresses. In fact, PNNI messages use an "ATM AFI" to distinguish between these different address families, and Call Control functionality in ATM Switches generally uses a single address data base integrating different types of addresses. For this reason, as far as MP-BGP is concerned, it makes more sense to treat all addresses exchanged between ATM Switches as a single family, rather than as a collection of separate families. Or, in other words, it makes more sense to use a single AFI/SAFI value than to use multiple. As we are currently working on a new version of the draft, we would appreciate your input on whether we can move ahead with our proposal for a new AFI/SAFI for ATM addresses.

I am not saying weights are advertised. All I am saying is that weights are used to select the best route on a given node to insert into the local_rib. And the impelementation should advertise only what is inserted into the local_rib? isnt that correct? So a. if i do not know what my neighbours are doing b. I use weights to choose routes. c. I advertise routes based on what goes into the local_rib, and such a scenario does occur, as individual ASes do not know what each one is doing, can we not end up in a unstable topology.

AS_PATH1: AS2 AS3 AS4 AS_PATH2: AS3 AS4 Because of the weight, it will select the one from AS2. It will send an implicit withdraw to AS2, replacing "AS1 AS3 AS4" with "AS1 AS2 AS3 AS4". AS2 upon receiving this UPDATE will find its own AS, and will ignore this. AS1 also advertises it best route to AS3. Thus AS3 now has the following routes. AS_PATH1: AS1 AS2 AS3 AS4 AS_PATH2: AS4 It will ignore the first UPDATE because it will find its own AS number in the AS_PATH and will select the path it learnt from AS4. Note that it overrides your weight configuration. But then, weight only works when you have two feasible candidate routes, and in this case there is only one feasible route. The other is not considered because of the AS loop. The network will thus converge! ]I fail to understand which router detects the loop in what ]case, as mentioned by you below. Hope this helps!

AS2 weights anything from AS3..so on. As far as I understand, weights are not propogated,(which you have confirmed is correct), but I do know that only those routes from BGP which enter the forwarding plane can be sent to peers. Is that not correct to? So if AS 4 withdraws a prefix, can you please tell me the converged state of this topology? I would very much appreciate it if you could take some time to write out the states and convince me. I fail to understand which router detects the loop in what case, as mentioned by you below.

Patel Filename : draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-experience-protocol-05.txt Pages : 23 Date : 2004-9-15 The purpose of this memo is to document how the requirements for advancing a routing protocol from Draft Standard to full Standard have been satisfied by Border Gateway Protocol version 4 (BGP-4). This report satisfies the requirement for "the second report", as described in Section 6.0 of RFC 1264. In order to fulfill the requirement, this report augments RFC 1773 and describes additional knowledge and understanding gained in the time between when the protocol was made a Draft Standard and when it was submitted for Standard.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages.

It is not part of the spec. and Only Cisco routers support this feature. For more info, look at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/ito_doc/bgp.htm#1020576. In your example, convergence will occur. You are trying to create a loop among AS1, AS2, and AS3. The router which originates a route eventually detects the loop condition by finding its own AS in the AS PATH attribute of an incoming UPDATE message, and drops the UPDATE.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-25.txt To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message. You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce to change your subscription settings. Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-25.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-25.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft. --NextPart Content-Type: Multipart/Alternative; Boundary="OtherAccess" --OtherAccess Content-Type: Message/External-body; access-type="mail-server"; server="mailserv@ietf.org" Content-Type: text/plain Content-ID: <2004-9-13163101.I-D@ietf.org> ENCODING mime FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-25.txt --OtherAccess Content-Type: Message/External-body; name="draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-25.txt"; site="ftp.ietf.org"; access-type="anon-ftp"; directory="internet-drafts" Content-Type: text/plain Content-ID: <2004-9-13163101.I-D@ietf.org> --OtherAccess-- --NextPart Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Idr mailing list Idr@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/idr --NextPart-- Received: from megatron.ietf.org (megatron.ietf.org [132.151.6.71]) by nic.merit.edu (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id WAA29863 for <idr-archive@nic.merit.edu>; Thu, 9 Sep 2004 22:46:43 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost.localdomain ([127.0.0.1] helo=megatron.ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1C5bOY-0007Z1-Tt; Thu, 09 Sep 2004 22:44:14 -0400 Received: from odin.ietf.org ([132.151.1.176] helo=ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1C5bO0-0007R2-Pc for idr@megatron.ietf.org; Thu, 09 Sep 2004 22:43:45 -0400 Received: from ietf-mx.ietf.org (ietf-mx.ietf.org [132.151.6.1]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id WAA28660 for <idr@ietf.org>; Thu, 9 Sep 2004 22:43:38 -0400 (EDT) Received: from rproxy.gmail.com ([64.233.170.199] helo=mproxy.gmail.com) by ietf-mx.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.33) id 1C5bRw-0003TL-GC for idr@ietf.org; Thu, 09 Sep 2004 22:47:47 -0400 Received: by mproxy.gmail.com with SMTP id 73so637901rnl for <idr@ietf.org>; Thu, 09 Sep 2004 19:43:30 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.38.59.62 with SMTP id h62mr1628177rna; Thu, 09 Sep 2004 19:43:30 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.38.102.10 with HTTP; Thu, 9 Sep 2004 19:43:30 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <92c95031040909194366086cc@mail.gmail.com> Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 08:13:30 +0530 From: Glen Kent <glen.kent@gmail.com> To: "Joel M.

Yes you can certainly do that, but then how do you deal with routers that cant parse this new path attribute? I think the current solution is more backward compatible and easier to roll out.

There is slightly more information available to the peer if we do that. But not much. We still need to define the AS path manipulation so that an entity which is using multiple paths (and possibly hearing multiple paths from other speakers) will be able to construct usable paths that preserve loop prevention. Thus, we concluded that we need the ugly bits anyway. So we used them to avoid adding protocol complexity to EBGP interaction. If folks want the multiple paths across the EBGP exchanges, it can probably be done.
