                    Engineering Information Using BGP

        Obsoletes:  RFC 7752, RFC 9029

        I-D Tag:    draft-ietf-idr-rfc7752bis-17.txt

        URL:        https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9552

In many environments, a component external to a network is called
upon to perform computations based on the network topology and the
current state of the connections within the network, including
Traffic Engineering (TE) information. This is information typically
distributed by IGP routing protocols within the network.

This document describes a mechanism by which link-state and TE
information can be collected from networks and shared with external
components using the BGP routing protocol. This is achieved using a
BGP Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) encoding format.
The mechanism applies to physical and virtual (e.g., tunnel) IGP
links. The mechanism described is subject to policy control.

Applications of this technique include Application-Layer Traffic
Optimization (ALTO) servers and Path Computation Elements (PCEs).

This document obsoletes RFC 7752 by completely replacing that
document. It makes some small changes and clarifications to the
previous specification. This document also obsoletes RFC 9029 by
incorporating the updates that it made to RFC 7752.

This document is a product of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
