Hi WGs, This was greatly discussed in the BFD WG meeting in Montreal, and that there was NO support to complicate the BFD for IPPM use-cases. There are number of existing protocols (OWAMP, TWAMP, RFC6374, STAMP, IOAM, etc.) designed, implemented and deployed for IPPM use-cases already. I am surprised that the text is still present in the latest version (02) of the draft (Section 3.4) and presented in another WG. Thanks, Rakesh On 2019-11-22, 10:49 AM, "Rtg-bfd on behalf of Jeffrey Haas" <rtg-bfd-bounces@ietf.org on behalf of jhaas@pfrc.org> wrote: In the interest of permitting the presentations to move smoothly at this Friday's rtgwg session, I withheld my comments from microphone. However, please consider these comments for the record for IETF-106. Firstly, I'm surprised the chairs had a BFD presentation at rtgwg. rtgwg is indeed intended to be a general purpose dispatch group for work without a home, but that's not the case for BFD. Secondly, Reshad and I intentionally did not schedule work on BFD extension work, including Greg's presentation, for this IETF. This is because there is open charter discussions we're starting with the IESG on this space. ----- Specific comments on BFD extension work and the charter discussions: During prior IETFs, and culminating at IETF-105, we've seen regular work to try to stuff BFD with additional features of various forms. The litmus test generally used for BFD's core use case over the years has been "what do you want to hear every 3.3ms?" To that end, things that enhance BFD's core continuity verification uses cases have ended up in the protocol. Somewhat similar to other popular protocols such as DNS and BGP, BFD has nice properties that make it an appealing place to try to extend. In particular, it's a continuing conversation between two systems. During IETF-105, the IPPM group members attending explicitly noted that they did not want to see their mechanisms present in BFD and did not consider it a good fit. As part of that discussion, the chairs noted that one option potentially open is that we permit the "BFDv2" option we have discussed at IETF-105 and previous to permit an option where we do not use the core BFDv1 session used for continuity for these extensions, and use a different protocol version and port set to enable the other use cases. Thus, the discussion with the IESG is whether BFD hands over the "gift" of a general and mature mechanism for a conversation between two systems that may be generally extended to carry "interesting" information. This addresses Tony Li's point about "please don't make BFD difficult to implement in hardware". ----- Specific comments on draft-mirmin-bfd-extended: The somewhat peculiar extension mechanism shown in Greg's draft was originally seeded by work I started in BFD for draft-ietf-bfd-large-packets. In fairness to history, this was similar to work that was done in OSPF years back for how the authentication mechanism was spliced onto the protocol. The one sentence description of that use case is "make the packet padded to test MTU". It's a hack, but one that does a reasonable job of its use case. However, with regard to leveraging this hack for a general purpose extension mechanism, I don't find it a good fit. BFDv1 does not expect to find information regarding the packet or state machine outside of the main PDU. It is likely a new version number will need to be used to establish future semantics. (Per prior discussion in the working group.) The capabilities mechanism will likely require either integration into some form of an updated state machine for the new version header, or a different form. IMO, I find it likely that a "capability advertisement" mechanism would be necessary rather than negotiation to avoid a wholesale replacement of the BFD state machinery. And if we replace that much of the machinery, let's just stop calling this BFD at all and move on. With regard to IPPM style content for the draft, I refer you to the IPPM members comments above from IETF-105. With regard to authentication, there are two possibilities here: - Faster authentication of BFD style packets is covered by work completing BFD WGLC draft-ietf-bfd-optimitizing-authentication. I'd encourage other working groups in need of a faster per-packet authentication mechanism to consider whether it's an appropriate fit. - In the case that such a future BFD, or mechanism built on similar machinery, want a way to autenticate the payload different from the headers, there will likely need to be discussion about not only what envelope is used, but also strength vs. periodicity. (And if you don't need this stuff periodically, why use something like BFD?) -- Jeff
