   PCEP Extensions for MPSL-TE LSP Path Protection with stateful PCE
         draft-ananthakrishnan-pce-stateful-path-protection-03

Abstract

   A stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) is capable of computing as
   well as controlling via Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP)
   Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering Label Switched
   Paths (MPLS LSP).  Furthermore, it is also possible for a stateful
   PCE to create, maintain, and delete LSPs.  This document describes
   PCEP extension to associate two or more LSPs to provide end-to-end
   path protection.

Internet-Draft      Stateful PCE LSP Path Protection           June 2017

1.  Introduction

   [RFC5440] describes PCEP for communication between a Path Computation
   Client (PCC) and a PCE or between one a pair of PCEs as per
   [RFC4655].  A PCE computes paths for MPLS-TE LSPs based on various
   constraints and optimization criteria.

   Stateful pce [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] specifies a set of
   extensions to PCEP to enable stateful control of paths such as MPLS
   TE LSPs between and across PCEP sessions in compliance with
   [RFC4657].  It includes mechanisms to effect LSP state
   synchronization between PCCs and PCEs, delegation of control of LSPs
   to PCEs, and PCE control of timing and sequence of path computations
   within and across PCEP sessions and focuses on a model where LSPs are
   configured on the PCC and control over them is delegated to the PCE.
   Furthermore, a mechanism to dynamically instantiate LSPs on a PCC
   based on the requests from a stateful PCE or a controller using
   stateful PCE is specified in [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

   Path protection refers to a paradigm in which the working LSP is
   protected by one or more protection LSP(s).  When the working LSP
   fails, protection LSP(s) is/are activated.  When the working LSPs are
   computed and controlled by the PCE, there is benefit in a mode of
   operation where protection LSPs are as well.

   This document specifies a stateful PCEP extension to associate two or
   more LSPs for the purpose of setting up path protection.  The
   proposed extension covers the following scenarios:

   o  A PCC initiates a protection LSP and retains the control of the
      LSP.  The PCC computes the path himself or make a request for path
      computation to a PCE.  After the path setup, it reports to the PCE
      with the information and state of the path.  This is the passive
      stateful mode [RFC8051].

   o  A PCC initiates a protection LSP and delegates the control of the
      LSP to a stateful PCE.  The PCE may compute the path for the LSP
      and update the PCC with the information about the path as long as
      it controls the LSP.  This is the active stateful mode [RFC8051].

   o  A protection LSP could be initiated by a stateful PCE, which
      retains the control of the LSP.  The PCE is responsible for
      computing the path of the LSP and updating to the PCC with the
      information about the path.  This is the PCE Initiated mode
      [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

   Note that protection LSP can be established prior to the failure (in
   which case the LSP is said to me in standby mode) or post failure of

   the corresponding working LSP according to the operator choice/
   policy.

1.1.  Requirements Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

2.  Terminology

   The following terminologies are used in this document:

   ERO:  Explicit Route Object.

   LSP:  Label Switched Path.

   PCC:  Path Computation Client.

   PCE:  Path Computation Element

   PCEP:  Path Computation Element Protocol.

   PPAG:  Path Protection Association Group.

   TLV:  Type, Length, and Value.

3.  PCEP Extensions

3.1.  Path Protection Association Type

   LSPs are not associated by listing the other LSPs with which they
   interact, but rather by making them belong to an association group
   referred to as "Path Protection Association Group" (PPAG) in this
   document.  All LSPs join a PPAG individually.  PPAG is based on the
   generic Association object used to associate two or more LSPs
   specified in [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group].  A member of a PPAG
   can take the role of working or protection LSP.  This document
   defines a new association type called "Path Protection Association
   Type" of value TBD1.  A PPAG can have one working LSP and/or one or
   more protection LSPs.  The source and destination of all LSPs within
   a PPAG MUST be the same.

   The format of the Association object used for PPAG is specified in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group] and replicated in this document for
   easy reference in Figure 1 and Figure 2.

   This document defines a new Association type, the Path Protection
   Association type, value will be assigned by IANA (TBD1).

   This Association-Type is dynamic in nature and created by the PCC or
   PCE for the LSPs originating at the same head node and terminating at
   the same destination.  These associations are conveyed via PCEP
   messages to the PCEP peer.  Operator-configured Association Range
   SHOULD NOT be set for this association-type and MUST be ignored.

3.2.  Path Protection Association TLV

   The Path Protection Association TLV is an optional TLV for use with
   the Path Protection Association Object Type.  The Path Protection
   Association TLV MUST NOT be present more than once.  If it appears

Ananthakrishnan, et al. Expires December 31, 2017               [Page 5]
Internet-Draft      Stateful PCE LSP Path Protection           June 2017

   more than once, only the first occurrence is processed and any others
   MUST be ignored.

   The Path Protection Association TLV follows the PCEP TLV format of
   [RFC5440].

   The type (16 bits) of the TLV is to be assigned by IANA.  The length
   field is 16 bit-long and has a fixed value of 4.

   The value comprises a single field, the Path Protection Association
   Flags (32 bits), where each bit represents a flag option.

   The format of the Path Protection Association TLV (Figure 3) is as
   follows:

     0                   1                   2                   3
     0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
     |          Path Protection Association Flags                |S|P|
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

             Figure 3: Path Protection Association TLV format

   P (PROTECTION-LSP 1 bit) - Indicates whether the LSP associated with
   the PPAG is working or protection LSP.  If this flag is set, the LSP
   is a protection LSP.

   S (STANDBY 1 bit)- When the P flag is set, the S flag indicates
   whether the protection LSP associated with the PPAG is in standby
   mode.  The S flag is ignored if the P flag is not set.

   If the Path Protection Association TLV is missing, it means the LSP
   is the working LSP.

4.  Operation

4.1.  PCC Initiated LSPs

   A PCC can associate a set of LSPs under its control for path
   protection purpose.  Similarly, the PCC can remove on or more LSPs
   under its control from the corresponding PPAG.  In both cases, the
   PCC must report the change in association to PCE(s) via PCRpt
   message.  A PCC can also delegate the working and protection LSPs to
   a stateful PCE, where PCE would control and update the paths and
   attributes of the LSPs in the association group.

Ananthakrishnan, et al. Expires December 31, 2017               [Page 6]
Internet-Draft      Stateful PCE LSP Path Protection           June 2017

   A stateless PCC can request protection to a PCE through PCReq
   message.

4.2.  PCE Initiated LSPs

   A PCE can create/update working and protection LSPs independently.
   As specified in [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group], Association Groups
   can be created by both PCE and PCC.

   A PCE can remove a protection LSP from a PPAG as specified in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group].

4.3.  State Synchronization

   During state synchronization, a PCC MUST report all the existing path
   protection association groups as well as any path protection flags to
   PCE(s).  Following the state synchronization, the PCE would remove
   all stale information as per [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group].

4.4.  Error Handling

   All LSPs (working or protection) within a PPAG MUST have the same
   source and destination.  If a PCE attempts to add an LSP to a PPAG
   and the source and/or destination of the LSP is/are different from
   the LSP(s) in the PPAG, the PCC MUST send PCErr with Error-Type= TBD
   (Association Error) [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group] and Error-Value
   = TBD3 (End points mismatch for Path Protection Association).

   There MUST be only one working LSP within a PPAG.  If a PCEP Speaker
   attempts to add another working LSP, the PCEP peer MUST send PCErr
   with Error-Type=TBD (Association Error)
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group] and Error-Value = TBD4 (Attempt to
   add another working LSP for Path Protection Association).

5.  Other considerations

   The diversity requirement for a group of LSPs is handled via another
   association type called "Disjointness Association", as described in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-diversity].  The diversity requirements for
   the the protection LSP are also handled by including both ASSOCIATION
   object for the group of LSPs.

6.1.  Association Type

   This document defines a new association type, originally defined in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group], for path protection.  IANA is
   requested to make the assignment of a new value for the sub-registry
   "ASSOCIATION Type Field" (request to be created in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group]), as follows:

   +------------------------+------------------------+-----------------+
   | Association Type Value | Association Name       | Reference       |
   +------------------------+------------------------+-----------------+

   +------------------------+------------------------+-----------------+

6.2.  PPAG TLV

   This document defines a new TLV for carrying additional information
   of LSPs within a path protection association group.  IANA is
   requested to make the assignment of a new value for the existing
   "PCEP TLV Type Indicators" registry as follows:

   +-----------------------+-----------------------------+-------------+
   | TLV Type Value        | TLV Name                    | Reference   |
   +-----------------------+-----------------------------+-------------+

   +-----------------------+-----------------------------+-------------+

   This document requests that a new sub-registry, named "Path
   protection Association Group TLV Flag Field", is created within the
   "Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) Numbers" registry to manage
   the Flag field in the Path Protection Association Group TLV.  New
   values are to be assigned by Standards Action [RFC8126].  Each bit
   should be tracked with the following qualities:

6.3.  PCEP Errors

   This document defines new Error-Type and Error-Value related to path
   protection association.  IANA is requested to allocate new error
   values within the "PCEP-ERROR Object Error Types and Values" sub-
   registry of the PCEP Numbers registry, as follows:

   +------------+-------------------+----------------------------------+
   | Error-Type | Meaning           | Reference                        |
   +------------+-------------------+----------------------------------+
   | TBD        | Association error | [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group] |
   |            | Error-value=TBD3: | This document                    |
   |            | End points        |                                  |

7.  Security Considerations

   The security considerations described in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce],
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp], and [RFC5440] apply to the
   extensions described in this document as well.  Additional
   considerations related to associations where a malicious PCEP speaker
   could be spoofed and could be used as an attack vector by creating
   associations is described in [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group].  Thus
   securing the PCEP session using Transport Layer Security (TLS)
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pceps], as per the recommendations and best current
   practices in [RFC7525], is RECOMMENDED.

8.  Manageability Considerations

8.1.  Control of Function and Policy

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any control or
   policy requirements in addition to those already listed in [RFC5440],
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

8.2.  Information and Data Models

   [RFC7420] describes the PCEP MIB, there are no new MIB Objects for
   this document.

   The PCEP YANG module [I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-yang] supports associations.

8.3.  Liveness Detection and Monitoring

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new liveness
   detection and monitoring requirements in addition to those already
   listed in [RFC5440], [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

8.4.  Verify Correct Operations

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new operation
   verification requirements in addition to those already listed in
   [RFC5440], [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

8.5.  Requirements On Other Protocols

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new requirements
   on other protocols.

8.6.  Impact On Network Operations

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not have any impact on network
   operations in addition to those already listed in [RFC5440],
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].
