1. Introduction
Section 4.8 of [RFC7854] defines a number of different BGP Monitoring
Protocol (BMP) statistics types to observe major events that occur on
a monitored router. Stats are either counters or gauges.
Section 6.2 of [RFC8671] also defines several BMP statistics types
for Adj-RIB-Out of a monitored router.
New BMP statistics types are needed to enable more refined BGP route
monitoring and analysis, improving operational maintenance and
troubleshooting capabilities.
This document defines gauges for new BMP statistics. The
applicability scope of these new gauges (Adj-RIB-In, Adj-RIB-Out,
Loc-RIB) is provided in Section 4. The format of the BMP statistics
message remains same as defined in [RFC7854].

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. The BCP14 is used to stress importance for
operators but are not required as formal implementation requirement.
2. Terminology
This document makes use of the following terms:
* Adj-RIB-In: As defined in [RFC4271], "The Adj-RIBs-In contains
unprocessed routing information that has been advertised to the
local BGP speaker by its peers."
* Pre-policy Adj-RIB-In: The result before applying the inbound
policy to an Adj-RIB-In. Note that this is an explicit definition
that aligns with the pre-policy Adj-RIB-In concept specified in
Section 2 of [RFC7854].
* Post-policy Adj-RIB-In: As defined in Section 2 of [RFC7854].
* Adj-RIB-Out: As defined in [RFC4271], "The Adj-RIBs-Out contains
the routes for advertisement to specific peers by means of the
local speaker's UPDATE messages."
* Pre-policy Adj-RIB-Out: As defined in Section 3 of [RFC8671].
* Post-policy Adj-RIB-Out: As defined in Section 3 of [RFC8671].
* Loc-RIB: As defined in Section 1.1 of [RFC4271], "The Loc-RIB
contains the routes that have been selected by the local BGP
speaker's Decision Process." Note that the Loc-RIB state as
monitored through BMP might also contain routes imported from
other routing protocols such as an IGP or local static routes.
* Route: As defined in Section 1.1 of [RFC4271].
The terms "Producer" and "Collector" are equivalent to "Monitored
Router" and "Monitoring Station", respectively. Also,
"implementation" is used following the same usage in [RFC7854].

3. RIB Monitoring Statistics
This section defines different statistics type for Adj-RIB-In and
Adj-RIB-Out monitoring type. Some of these statistics are also
applicable to Loc-RIB; refer to Section 4 for more details.
3.1. Statistics Format
The BMP Statistics Report Message carries statistic information in
Type-Length-Value (TLV) formats. Each Statistic is encoded as a TLV
(Stat Type, Stat Len, Stat Data) (Section 4.8 of [RFC7854]). "Stat
Data" is being referred as "value" when defining various RIB
Monitoring Statistics.
Statistics defined in this document can be categorized into two
granularities: Global Statistics and Per-Address Family Identifier
(AFI)/Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI) [RFC4760]
Statistics. Statistics defined with Per-AFI/SAFI descriptions belong
to Per-AFI/SAFI Statistics, while other statistics belong to Global
Statistics. Both a Global Statistic and its corresponding Per-AFI/
SAFI Statistics can be reported simultaneously.
The Per-AFI/SAFI Statistics apply only to the AFI/SAFIs that a BGP
speaker supports and negotiates with its peer. The authoritative
registries for AFI/SAFI values are maintained by IANA [IANA-AFI]
[IANA-SAFI].
For Global Statistics, the "Stat Data" (value) field is a single
64-bit unsigned integer gauge with "Stat Len" MUST be set to 8. Each
global statistic MUST appear only once in a BMP Statistics Report
Message.
For Per-AFI/SAFI Statistics, the "Stat Data" (value) field is a
11-byte structured value formatted as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, and
64-bit Gauge. The "Stat Len" MUST be set to 11. For any given per-
AFI/SAFI Statistic, duplicate (AFI, SAFI) pairs MUST NOT appear
within the same BMP Statistics Report Message. Per-AFI/SAFI
statistics MUST NOT be included in the BMP Statistics Report Message
if there is no data to report for that AFI/SAFI.
If statistics apply to the Loc-RIB, the "Peer Type" field in the Per-
Peer Header of the corresponding BMP Statistics Report Message MUST
be set to 3 (Loc-RIB Instance Peer) [RFC9069]. Otherwise, the "Peer
Type" MUST be set as defined in Section 4.2 of of [RFC7854].
A BMP implementation MUST ignore unrecognized stat types upon
receipt.

3.2. Adj-RIB-In RIB Monitoring Statistics Definition
* Type = 18: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in pre-policy
Adj-RIB-In. This gauge is similar to stats type 7 defined in
[RFC7854] and makes it explicitly for the pre-policy Adj-RIB-In.
* Type = 19: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
pre-policy Adj-RIB-In. This gauge is similar to stats type 9
defined in Section 4.8 of [RFC7854] and makes it explicitly for
the pre-policy Adj-RIB-In. The value is structured as: 2-byte
AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 20: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in post-policy
Adj-RIB-In.
* Type = 21: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI,
1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 22: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
pre-policy Adj-RIB-In rejected by inbound policy. This gauge is
different from stats type 0 defined in Section 4.8 of [RFC7854].
The stats type 0 is a 32-counter which is a monotonically
increasing number, while the stats type 22 is a 64-bit gauge which
represents the current number of routes rejected by an inbound
policy due to ongoing policy configuration changes. The value is
structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit
Gauge.
* Type = 23: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In accepted by inbound policy. The value is
structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit
Gauge.
* Type = 26: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In or Loc-RIB suppressed by configured route
damping policy. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte
SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge. 'Suppressed' refers to a route
which has been declared suppressed by the BGP Route Flap Damping
mechanism as described in Section 2.2 of [RFC2439].
* Type = 27: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In or Loc-RIB marked as stale by Graceful
Restart (GR) events. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI,
1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge. 'Stale' refers to a
route which has been declared stale by the BGP GR mechanism as
described in Section 4.1 of [RFC4724].
Srivastava, et al. Expires 6 June 2026 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft BMP New Statistics December 2025
* Type = 28: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In or Loc-RIB marked as stale by Long-Lived
Graceful Restart (LLGR). The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI,
1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge. 'Stale' refers to a
route which has been declared stale by the BGP LLGR mechanism as
described in Section 4.3 of [RFC9494].
* Type = 29: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in post-policy
Adj-RIB-In left before exceeding the received route threshold as
defined in Section 6.7 of [RFC4271].
* Type = 30: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes per-AFI/SAFI in
post-policy Adj-RIB-In left before exceeding the received route
threshold which corresponds to the upper bound of per-AFI/SAFI
accepted routes following the model defined in Section 6.7 of
[RFC4271]. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI,
followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 31: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in post-policy
Adj-RIB-In or Loc-RIB left before exceeding a license-customized
route threshold. If no such license is configured, or if the
license does not impose a hard limit, this value MUST NOT be
reported.
* Type = 32: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In or Loc-RIB left before exceeding a license-
customized route threshold. If no such license is configured, or
if the license does not impose a hard limit, this value MUST NOT
be reported. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI,
followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 33: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in pre-policy
Adj-RIB-In rejected by exceeding the maximum AS_PATH length
supported by the local configuration.
* Type = 34: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
in pre-policy Adj-RIB-In rejected by exceeding the maximum AS_PATH
length supported by the local configuration. The value is
structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit
Gauge.
* Type = 35: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In invalidated through the Route Origin
Authorization (ROA) of Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI)
[RFC6811]. This is total number of routes invalidated due to
origin Autonomous System (AS) number mismatch and prefix length
mismatch. The value is structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI,
followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
Srivastava, et al. Expires 6 June 2026 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft BMP New Statistics December 2025
* Type = 36: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In validated by verifying route origin AS
number through the ROA of RPKI [RFC6811]. The value is structured
as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 37: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-In whose RPKI route origin validation state is
NotFound due to the absence of a matching ROA of RPKI [RFC6811].

64-bit Gauge.
3.3. Adj-RIB-Out RIB Monitoring Statistics Definition
* Type = 38: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
pre-policy Adj-RIB-Out rejected by outbound policy. These routes
are active routes which otherwise would have been advertised in

Adj-RIB-Out filtered due to AS_PATH length exceeding the locally
configured maximum.
* Type = 40: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
pre-policy Adj-RIB-Out filtered due to AS_PATH length exceeding
the locally configured maximum. The value is structured as:
2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 41: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-Out invalidated through the ROA of RPKI
[RFC6811]. This is total number of routes invalidated due to
origin AS number mismatch and prefix length mismatch. The value
is structured as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit
Gauge.
* Type = 42: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
post-policy Adj-RIB-Out validated by verifying route origin AS
number through the ROA of RPKI [RFC6811]. The value is structured
as: 2-byte AFI, 1-byte SAFI, followed by a 64-bit Gauge.
* Type = 43: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI

5. Implementation Considerations
This document specifies gauges for new BMP statistics. The format of
BMP statistics messages remains unchanged from [RFC7854]. This
section outlines the implementation considerations for new BMP
statistics.
For backward compatibility, and absent policy otherwise, it is
RECOMMENDED that BMP producers capable of generating both (Types 7
and 18) or (Types 9 and 19) BMP statistics SHOULD transmit both
corresponding types simultaneously. This allows BMP collectors to
process either format according to their needs without disrupting
existing implementations that rely on Type 7 or Type 9. The
selection of which statistic types to generate within each pair
SHOULD be treated as an implementation decision rather than a
protocol requirement, with the BMP collector behavior for handling
these statistic types remaining implementation-specific.
Some statistics are dependent on feature configurations, such as GR,
LLGR, and RPKI, so the corresponding statistics SHOULD only be
generated and sent when these features are enabled on the BMP
producer. These statistics include Types 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32,
33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, 41, 42, and 43.
Some statistics are also relevant for the Loc-RIB view [RFC9069], so
they may apply to the Loc-RIB view after best-path selection is
completed. These statistics include Types 26, 27, 28, 31, and 32.
When these statistics apply to the Loc-RIB view, the Peer Type in the
Per-Peer Header of the corresponding BMP Statistics Report Message
MUST set to 3.
Srivastava, et al. Expires 6 June 2026 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft BMP New Statistics December 2025
Certain statistics may have logical relationships (e.g., per-AFI/SAFI
counts summing to global totals). BMP statistics producers and
collectors MAY perform consistency checks but MUST NOT assume strict
dependencies (due to potential race conditions or partial failures).
Discrepancies (e.g., sum(per-AFI/SAFI) != global count) SHOULD be
logged as warnings but MUST NOT disrupt protocol operation.
The generation and transmission of type 27 and 28 during an active
GR/LLGR event consumes additional control plane resources (e.g.,
CPU). BMP statistics producers SHOULD prioritize the core GR/LLGR
convergence procedures. To avoid adversely impacting the restart
process, a BMP statistics producer MAY choose to sample this value at
a lower frequency, buffer updates, or temporarily suspend reporting
for this type during the most critical phases of a switchover.
These gauges may reset due to manual clearance, or overflow. BMP
statistics producers and collectors MUST track discontinuities and
log this anomaly.
6. Operational Considerations
This section outlines some operational considerations of new BMP
statistics for BMP operators.
Transmission scheduling and triggering mechanisms for new gauges are
implementation-dependent. BMP operators SHOULD determine appropriate
report generation and delivery strategies, including configurable
timing intervals and threshold values. The mechanism for controlling
the reporting of new gauges SHOULD be consistent with that of
existing types.
BMP operators SHOULD rate-limit statistic updates to minimize
performance impact on control-plane processes. BMP operators SHOULD
only enable necessary statistics to reduce memory and CPU overhead.
Implementations SHOULD also support per-router configuration of
statistic subsets for collection and reporting.
Some BMP statistics producers, or configurations in BMP statistics
producers, MAY discard routes that do not match policy and thus the
accepted count (Type 23) and the Adj-RIB-In counts (Type 21) will be
identical in such cases. BMP operators SHOULD be aware of this
behavior when interpreting these gauges. BMP operators SHOULD be
aware that BMP statistics producers and collectors MAY log
inconsistencies between statistics as warnings.

7. Security Considerations
Procedures and protocol extensions defined in this document do not
affect the BMP security model. All security and authentication
mechanisms required by Section 11 of [RFC7854], Section 8 of
[RFC8671], and Section 7 of [RFC9069] are also applicable to the
gauges defined in this document. This document does not add any
additional security considerations.
Monitored devices SHOULD be configured to implement rate-limited
reporting of new gauges.
8. IANA Considerations
IANA has assigned the following new parameters in the BMP Statistics
Types registry (https://www.iana.org/assignments/bmp-parameters/bmp-
parameters.xhtml#statistics-types), part of the BMP parameters
registry group (https://www.iana.org/assignments/bmp-parameters/bmp-
parameters.xhtml).
This document requests IANA to update these entries as follows.
Also, the document requests IANA to update the reference cited for
the entries with the RFC number to be assigned to this document.

9. Implementation Status
Note to the RFC Editor - remove this section before publication, as
well as remove the reference to [RFC7942].
This section records the status of known implementations of the
protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this
Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in [RFC7942].
The description of implementations in this section is intended to
assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to
RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation
here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort
has been spent to verify the information presented here that was
supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not
be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their
features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may
exist.
According to [RFC7942], "this will allow reviewers and working groups
to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of
running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation
and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature.
It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as
they see fit".
