Enhanced VPN requires integration between the overlay VPN connectivity and the characteristics provided by the underlay network. A Network Resource Partition (NRP) is a subset of the network resources and associated policies on each of a connected set of links in the underlay network. An NRP could be used as the underlay to support one or a group of enhanced VPN services. The NRP-specific resource information and status needs to be collected from network nodes and reported to the network controller for NRP-specific management and path computation. This document specifies the BGP Link-State (BGP-LS) mechanisms with necessary extensions to advertise the information of NRPs to network controller in a scalable way. The NRP information is advertised using a separate type of BGP-LS NLRI, which allows flexible update of NRP information without impacting the based link state information.}, }
