Re: [Lsr] Regd covering BGP-LS extensions for IGP ELC drafts

["Susan Hares" <[e-mail]>]

Ketan and Acee:

 

The IDR co-chairs (John and I) wish to reduce the number of trivial drafts for BGP-LS allocations that could be done with 1 sentence.   We discussed with the LSR chairs (Acee and Chris) that it would be reasonable for LSR to do what Ketan has requested. 

 

We suggest that the WG LC is sent to IDR and LSR in case someone wants to discuss a concern.   The LSR chairs are capable and smart.   Acee and Chris can help shepherd these LSR drafts with BGP TLV language.

PS – has anyone heard if Chris Hopps is a father yet?

Subject: [Lsr] Regd covering BGP-LS extensions for IGP ELC drafts

 

Hi Acee/All,

 

During the LSR WG meeting on Monday, we talked about covering the BGP-LS aspects of the following two IGP drafts in those drafts instead of requiring a separate document:

 

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-isis-mpls-elc/

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-mpls-elc/

 

Originally, these IGP drafts introduced a new node capability that required a new BGP-LS TLV and this was captured in the IDR WG document https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-segment-routing-rld/

 

However after the discussion in the LSR WG over the last few months, the approach has changed such that the IGP signalling is being done by introduction of new flags and MSD-type. This makes the corresponding BGP-LS updates quite trivial and as discussed in the LSR WG, I would recommend to add some text (proposed below) to the two IGP documents.

 

OSPF:

The OSPF extensions defined in this document can be advertised via BGP-LS [RFC7752] using existing BGP-LS TLVs. The flags field of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV and the OSPFv3 PrefixOptions where the ELC Flag introduced in this document is advertised using the Prefix Attribute Flags TLV (TLV 1170) of the BGP-LS IPv4/IPv6 Prefix NLRI Attribute [https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-segment-routing-ext-16#section-2.3.2]. The new ERLD MSD-type introduced for OSPF by this document is advertised using the Node MSD TLV (TLV 266) of BGP-LS Node NLRI Attribute [https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-segment-routing-msd-05#section-3]. 

 

ISIS:

The IS-IS extensions defined in this document can be advertised via BGP-LS [RFC7752] using existing BGP-LS TLVs. The Prefix Attribute Flags sub-TLV where the ELC Flag is introduced in this document is advertised using the Prefix Attribute Flags TLV (TLV 1170) of the BGP-LS IPv4/IPv6 Prefix NLRI Attribute [https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-segment-routing-ext-16#section-2.3.2]. The new ERLD MSD-type introduced for IS-IS by this document is advertised using the Node MSD TLV (TLV 266) of BGP-LS Node NLRI Attribute [https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-segment-routing-msd-05#section-3]. 

 

I am copying the IDR WG and authors of the BGP-LS ERLD draft as well for their inputs/feedback.

 

Thanks,

Ketan

I think we had some very good discussions in our sessions this week. I’ve uploaded the minutes for the both LSR sessions on Monday. Thanks much to Yingzhen Qu for taking them.
