[weiguo]: Thanks. But MAC filters maybe not applicable to IPV4 &VPNv4, because in this case, MAC information will be changed on different PE devices, a single ACL rule can't identify a consistant flow at different PE devices. So in IP network, flow-spec can only be defined using IP related information.
[SLI] I agree with your point but I was thinking about a future (hope it will happen :) when we will be able to offer L2 and L3 services on the same plug (including same VLAN, sort of concurrent routing & bridging interface). In this situation, is it good to use two address families to filter the different services ? Why not using only one ...


[weiguo]: RD usage has no difference with original BGP VPN definication. Can you give me some more clarifications?
[SLI] Right, but RFC5575 precises that RD is part of NLRI for VPN :
"The NLRI format for this address family consists of a fixed-length
   Route Distinguisher field (8 bytes) followed by a flow specification,
   following the encoding defined in this document.  The NLRI length
   field shall include both the 8 bytes of the Route Distinguisher as
   well as the subsequent flow specification.
"
In your document , I can't see this ... as you are defining a new NLRI, you need to precise the format.

Hi Stephane,
Thanks for your detail comments. Pls see my reply inline with [weiguo] below.

Hi,

I think this is a valuable addition, but I would like to see these MAC filters being applicable also to IPv4 plugs (FS IPv4 & VPNv4)
[weiguo]: Thanks. But MAC filters maybe not applicable to IPV4 &VPNv4, because in this case, MAC information will be changed on different PE devices, a single ACL rule can't identify a consistant flow at different PE devices. So in IP network, flow-spec can only be defined using IP related information.

Moreover , the new AFI/SAFI should not be restricted to EVPN, any L2 interface may be interested by such filter (VPLS, basic L2 switching ...).
[weiguo]: Yes, I agree. Firstly i propose Ethernet flow-spec only in EVPN network, because flows-pec relies on BGP protocol and EVPN has BGP control plane, so it will be easy to deploy BGP flowspec in EVPN network. If we want to deploy the flow-spec in VPLS network, normally VPLS only relies on LDP protocol, additional protocol of BGP flow-spec should be deployed for MAC filtering.
If the community thinks it is necessary to introduce ethernet flow-spec for all L2 interface, i can update this part to let it not be restricted to EVPN.

Route distinguisher may be is missing ...
[weiguo]: RD usage has no difference with original BGP VPN definication. Can you give me some more clarifications?

Now more globally, may be it's time to think more globally about the evolution of FS. I pretty see FS evolution largely beyond DDoS domain. FS is a very good protocol for SDN applications. The question behind is do we really need to work with multiple address families for each type of "service"/"interface type" to filter or do we need to have a more global model where we would be able to put any type of filter any where and apply multiple actions (openflow like FS). Compared to openflow, FS has the magic to enable multipoint distribution of actions.

[weiguo]: Yes, BGP flow-spec can be applicable for some SDN applications. It has more potential to do more attactive things.

Best Regards,

Stephane

Hi Jim,
Thanks for your comments. The BGP Flowspec procedures is illustrated as following:

                                          EVPN FlowSpec Session                  EVPN FlowSpec Session
DDOS Detection Appliance--------------------------Egress PE-----------------------------Ingress PE------CE2
                                                                                         |
                                                                                      CE1 DDOS Detection Appliance establishes EVPN flowspec session with Egress PE, it detects DDOS attack traffic and generate ACL rule, the ACL rule is announced to Egress PE through EVPN flowspec protocol, then the egress PE announces it to ingress PE, finally ingress PE installs the ACL rule for traffic filtering.
DDOS Detection Appliance only needs to support EVPN flowspec function, it doesn't need to support basic EVPN function.
Thanks

Weiguo,

        I would like to better understand how a remote PE will "learn" that it needs to deliver a FS path to the ingress PE?? It cannot come from the CE as that is data plane learning. I would think that all FS paths have to be disseminated by a centralized controller.

Hi All,
We have submitted a draft of " Dissemination of Flow Specification Rules for EVPN".  I will appriciate if you can give us some suggestions and comments.
Thanks
weiguo

Abstract:
   This document defines BGP flow-spec extension for Ethernet traffic
   filtering in EVPN network. A new BGP NLRI type (AFI=25, SAFI=TBD)
   value is proposed to identify EVPN flow-spec application. A new
   subset of component types and extended community also are defined.




Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
