Introduction When the nodes in a network are numbered or indexed from 1 to the number of the nodes, an efficient stateless multicast along the shortest paths to the egresses of a P2MP tree can be achieved using the node indices of the egresses. This document proposes OSPF and IS-IS extensions for distributing the node index configured on a node to support the best effort stateless multicast. When a controller such as PCE as a controller has the node indexes, it can send the P2MP tree encoded in the node indexes to the ingress of the tree. 1.1. Terminology LSA: Link State Advertisement. OSPF: Open Shortest Path First. Chen, et al. Expires 28 March 2025 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Advertise Node Ix September 2024 LSP: Link State Protocol data unit. IS-IS: Intermediate System to Intermediate System. 2. Extensions to OSPF This section describes extensions to OSPF for distributing the node index configured on a node. The node index of a node MUST be unique in a network. This is like the identifier (ID) of the node. [RFC7770] defines the Router Information (RI) Link state Advertisement (LSA). The RI LSA is used to advertise Optional Router Information using Router Information LSA TLVs. A new Router Information LSA TLV, called Node Index TLV, is defined to carry the Node Index configured on the node originating the RI LSA. The Node Index TLV has the following format: 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type (TBD1) | Length (2) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Node Index | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 1: Node Index TLV Type: TBD1. Length: 2. Node Index: The node index configured on a node. This TLV is optional. It is applicable to both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. For advertising a node index, the area-scoped RI LSA including a Node Index TLV is used. 3. Extension to IS-IS This section describes an extension to IS-IS for distributing the Node Index configured on a node. [RFC7981] defines the IS-IS Router CAPABILITY TLV to advertise Router Information. The TLV includes multiple sub-TLVs. A new Node Index sub-TLV to be included in the TLV, is defined to carry the Node Index configured on the node originating the TLV in its LSP. This sub-TLV has the following format: Chen, et al. Expires 28 March 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Advertise Node Ix September 2024 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 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type (TBD2) | Length (2) | Node Index | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 2: Node Index sub-TLV Type: TBD2. Length: 2. Node Index: The Node Index configured on a node. This sub-TLV is optional. For advertising a node index, the area- scoped LSP including a Node Index sub-TLV in an IS-IS Router CAPABILITY TLV is used. 4. Security Considerations TBD. 5. IANA Considerations 5.1. OSPF RI TLVs Registry Under "OSPF Router Information (RI) TLVs registry" as defined in [RFC7770], IANA is requested to assign a new type as follows: +==============+===================+=====================+ | Value | Description | reference | +==============+===================+=====================+ | TBD1 | Node Index | This document | +--------------+-------------------+---------------------+ 5.2. IS-IS Sub-TLVs for TLV 242 Registry Under "Sub-TLVs for TLV 242 (IS-IS Router CAPABILITY TLV) registry" as defined in [RFC7981], IANA is requested to assign a new sub-TLV as follows: +==============+===================+=====================+ | Value | Description | reference | +==============+===================+=====================+ | TBD2 | Node Index | This document | +--------------+-------------------+---------------------+ Chen, et al.
