BGP-LS extensions for BIER-TE
draft-cz-bier-bgp-ls-bier-te-ext-07
Abstract
BIER-TE forwards and replicates packets based on a BitString in the
packet header, but every BitPosition of the BitString of a BIER-TE
packet indicates one or more adjacencies.
BGP Link-State (BGP-LS) enables the collection of various topology
informations from the network, and the topology informations are used
by the PCE to calculate the path and then propagate them onto the
BFRs(instead of having each node to calculate on its own) and that
can be for both inter-as and intra-as situations.
This document specifies extensions to the BGP Link-state address-
family in order to advertise BIER-TE informations.

1. Introduction
Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER)-TE shares architecture and
packet formats with BIER as described in [RFC8279]. BIER-TE forwards
and replicates packets based on a BitString in the packet header, but
every BitPosition of the BitString of a BIER-TE packet indicates one
or more adjacencies as described in [RFC9262].
When BIER-TE is enabled in an IGP domain, BIER-TE-related
informations will be advertised via IGP. The flooding scope for the
IGP extensions for BIER-TE is IGP area-wide. by using the IGP alone
it is not enough to construct across multiple IGP Area.

Internet-Draft BGP-LS extensions for BIER-TE August 2026
The BGP-LS address-family/sub-address-family have been defined to
allow BGP to carry Link-State informations. This document specifies
extensions to the BGP Link-state address-family in order to advertise
BIER-TE-specific informations, Similar to BGP-LS Advertisement of IGP
Traffic Engineering Performance Metric Extensions([RFC8571]). An
external component (e.g., a controller/a PCE(see [RFC4655] for PCE-
Based Architecture , [RFC5440] for PCEP and [RFC5376] for Inter-AS
Requirements for the PCEP.))then can learn the BIER-TE informations
in the "northbound" direction and calculate BIER-TE Path and then
propagate them onto BFRs (instead of having each BFR to calculate on
its own), and that can be for both inter-as and intra-as situations.
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
2. BGP-LS Extensions for BIER-TE
[I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospf] and [I-D.ietf-bier-te-isis] specifies IGP
extensions for distributing the BitPositions configured on a BFR with
MPLS and Non-MPLS encapsulation for BIER-TE in a BIER-TE domain. and
then external component (e.g., a controller) need to collect the
BitPositions configured on a BFR with MPLS and Non-MPLS encapsulation
for BIER-TE in the "northbound" direction within the BIER-TE domain.

Localdecap-BP Sub-TLV of IS-IS (section 2.2 of
[I-D.ietf-bier-te-isis]) and OSPF (section 2.2 and section 3.2 of

BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the localdecap BitPosition
configured on a BFR.
2.2.3. BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation TLV
The BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation TLV is used in order to advertise MPLS
specific informations used for BIER-TE. It MAY appear multiple
times. The informations are derived from BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation
Sub-TLV of OSPF (section 2.3.1 of [I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospf]).
In some environment, each router allocates its labels, and advertises
it to the controller.That solution is simpler as the controller does
not need to deal with label allocation. If the controller has to
deal with Label allocation , there needs to be a (global) range
carved out such there are no conflicts. We can avoid all that by
having the router allocate the BIER Label range and advertise it to
the controller.
The following the BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation TLV is defined:
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

subdomain for this BitString length.

[RFC8296].
Label: First label of the range, 20 bits. The labels are as defined
[RFC8296]. The 4 leftmost bits MUST be ignored.
BS length in multiple MPLS Encapsulation TLV associated with the same
BIER-TE information TLV MUST NOT repeat, otherwise only the first
MPLS Encapsulation TLV with such BS length MUST be used and any
subsequent MPLS Encapsulation TLVs with the same BS length MUST be
ignored.
2.2.4. BIER-TE Non-MPLS Encapsulation TLV
The BIER-TE Non-MPLS Encapsulation TLV is used in order to advertise
Non-MPLS encapsulation(e.g. ethernet encapsulation ) capability and
other associated parameters of the encapsulation. It MAY appear
multiple times. The informations are derived from BIER-TE Non-MPLS
Encapsulation Sub-TLV of OSPF (section 2.3.2 of
[I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospf]).
The following the BIER-TE Non-MPLS Encapsulation TLV is defined:

Internet-Draft BGP-LS extensions for BIER-TE August 2026
The "BIFT-id range" is the set of 20-bit values beginning with the
BIFT-id and ending with (BIFT-id + (Max SI)). A unique BIFT-id range
is allocated for each BitString length and sub-domain-id. These
BIFT-id's are used for BIER forwarding as described in [RFC8279])and
[RFC8296].
Local BitString Length (BS Len): A 4-bit field encoding the Bitstring
length as per [RFC8296].
BIFT-id:A 20bit field encoding the first BIFT-id of the BIFT-id
range. The BIER-id are as defined in
[I-D.ietf-bier-lsr-non-mpls-extensions].
3. IANA Considerations
IANA maintains a registry group called "BGP-LS NLRI and Attribute
TLVs" in the "Border Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS)
Parameters" registry group.

IANA):

Procedures and protocol extensions defined in this document do not
