[Idr] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-spaghetti-idr-bgp-sendholdtimer-05.txt

[Job Snijders <[e-mail]>]

Dear IDR,

I’d like to bring this draft to the working group for another round of
consideration for WG adoption.

There now are two implementations which have implemented the concept
(OpenBGPd and FRR) in releases shipping to customers.

Our hope is that more BGP implementers take an interest to help improve
global Internet routing system stability.

We welcome interested parties to help co-author the document, specifically
in these areas:

- is the 4271 surgery correct?

- graceful restart considerations?

- do chassis/COTS router vendors feel comfortable with the suggested
timers, or is more leeway needed?

The goal is to bring the fault stale state back from days/weeks to a few
minutes (not to race to the bottom and seek sub-minute resolution).

We’d like to ask the IDR chairs to consider kicking off the WG adoption
process.

Kind regards,

Job

Abstract:
   This document defines the SendHoldTimer session attribute for the
   Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Finite State Machine (FSM).
   Implementation of a SendHoldTimer should help overcome situations
   where BGP sessions are not terminated after it has become detectable
   for the local system that the remote system is not processing BGP
   messages.  For robustness, this document specifies that the local
   system should close BGP connections and not solely rely on the remote
   system for session tear down when BGP timers have expired.  This
   document updates RFC4271.
