   Route Leak Prevention and Detection using Roles in UPDATE and OPEN

Abstract

   Route leaks are the propagation of BGP prefixes that violate
   assumptions of BGP topology relationships, e.g., announcing a route
   learned from one transit provider to another transit provider or a
   lateral (i.e., non-transit) peer or announcing a route learned from
   one lateral peer to another lateral peer or a transit provider.
   These are usually the result of misconfigured or absent BGP route
   filtering or lack of coordination between autonomous systems (ASes).
   Existing approaches to leak prevention rely on marking routes by
   operator configuration, with no check that the configuration
   corresponds to that of the eBGP neighbor, or enforcement that the two
   eBGP speakers agree on the relationship.  This document enhances the
   BGP OPEN message to establish an agreement of the relationship on
   each eBGP session between autonomous systems in order to enforce
   appropriate configuration on both sides.  Propagated routes are then
   marked according to the agreed relationship, allowing both prevention
   and detection of route leaks.

1.  Introduction

   Route leaks are the propagation of BGP prefixes that violate
   assumptions of BGP topology relationships, e.g., announcing a route
   learned from one transit provider to another transit provider or a
   lateral (i.e., non-transit) peer or announcing a route learned from
   one lateral peer to another lateral peer or a transit provider
   [RFC7908].  These are usually the result of misconfigured or absent
   BGP route filtering or lack of coordination between autonomous
   systems (ASes).

   Existing approaches to leak prevention rely on marking routes by
   operator configuration, with no check that the configuration
   corresponds to that of the eBGP neighbor, or enforcement that the two
   eBGP speakers agree on the relationship.  This document enhances the
   BGP OPEN message to establish an agreement of the relationship on
   each eBGP session between autonomous systems in order to enforce
   appropriate configuration on both sides.  Propagated routes are then
   marked according to the agreed relationship, allowing both prevention
   and detection of route leaks.

   This document provides configuration automation using BGP Roles,
   which are negotiated using a BGP Role Capability in the OPEN message
   [RFC5492].  An eBGP speaker may require the use of this capability
   and confirmation of BGP Role with a neighbor for the BGP OPEN to
   succeed.

   An optional, transitive BGP Path Attribute, called Only to Customer
   (OTC), is specified in Section 4.  It prevents ASes from creating
   leaks and detects leaks created by the ASes in the middle of an AS
   path.  The main focus/applicability is the Internet (IPv4 and IPv6
   unicast route advertisements).

1.1.  Terminology

   In the rest of this document, the term "Peer" is used to refer to a
   "lateral (i.e., non-transit) peer" for simplicity.  Also, the terms
   Provider and Customer are used to refer to a transit provider and a
   transit customer, respectively.  Further, the terms RS and RS-Client
   are used to refer to a Route Server and its client, respectively.

   The terms "local AS" and "remote AS" are used to refer to the two
   ends of an eBGP session.  The "local AS" is the AS where the protocol
   action being described is to be performed, and "remote AS" is the AS
   at the other end of the eBGP session in consideration.

Azimov, et al.            Expires July 11, 2022                 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft            Route Leak Prevention             January 2022

   The use of the term "route is ineligible" in this document has the
   same meaning as in [RFC4271], i.e., "route is ineligible to be
   installed in Loc-RIB and will be excluded from the next phase of
   route selection."

2.  Peering Relationships

   The terms defined and used in this document (see below) do not
   necessarily represent business relationships based on payment
   agreements.  These terms are used to represent restrictions on BGP
   route propagation, sometimes known as the Gao-Rexford model [Gao].
   The following is a list of BGP Roles for eBGP peering and the
   corresponding rules for route propagation:

   Provider:  MAY propagate any available route to a Customer.

   Customer:  MAY propagate any route learned from a Customer, or
      locally originated, to a Provider.  All other routes MUST NOT be
      propagated.

   Route Server (RS):  MAY propagate any available route to a Route
      Server Client (RS-Client).

   RS-Client:  MAY propagate any route learned from a Customer, or
      locally originated, to an RS.  All other routes MUST NOT be
      propagated.

   Peer:  MAY propagate any route learned from a Customer, or locally
      originated, to a Peer.  All other routes MUST NOT be propagated.

   If the local AS has one of the above Roles (in the order shown), then
   the corresponding peering relationship with the remote AS is
   Provider-to-Customer, Customer-to-Provider, RS-to-RS-Client, RS-
   Client-to-RS, or Peer-to-Peer (i.e., lateral peers), respectively.
   These are called normal peering relationships.

   If the local AS has more than one peering role with the remote AS
   such peering relation is called Complex.  An example is when the
   peering relationship is Provider-to-Customer for some prefixes while
   it is Peer-to-Peer for other prefixes [Gao].

   A BGP speaker may apply policy to reduce what is announced, and a
   recipient may apply policy to reduce the set of routes they accept.
   Violation of the above rules may result in route leaks.  Automatic
   enforcement of these rules should significantly reduce route leaks
   that may otherwise occur due to manual configuration mistakes.

Internet-Draft            Route Leak Prevention             January 2022

   As specified in Section 4, the Only to Customer (OTC) Attribute is
   used to identify all the routes in the AS that have been received
   from a Peer, Provider, or RS.

3.  BGP Role

   The BGP Role characterizes the relationship between the eBGP speakers
   forming a session.  One of the Roles described below SHOULD be
   configured at the local AS for each eBGP session (see definitions in
   Section 1.1) based on the local AS's knowledge of its Role.  The only
   exception is when the eBGP connection is Complex (see Section 5).
   BGP Roles are mutually confirmed using the BGP Role Capability
   (described in Section 3.1) on each eBGP session.

   Allowed Roles for eBGP sessions are:

   o  Provider - the local AS is a transit Provider of the remote AS;

   o  Customer - the local AS is a transit Customer of the remote AS;

   o  RS - the local AS is a Route Server (usually at an Internet
      exchange point) and the remote AS is its RS-Client;

   o  RS-Client - the local AS is a client of an RS and the RS is the
      remote AS;

   o  Peer - the local and remote ASes are Peers (i.e., have a lateral
      peering relationship).

3.1.  BGP Role Capability

   The BGP Role Capability is defined as follows:

   o  Code - 9

   o  Length - 1 (octet)

   o  Value - integer corresponding to speaker's BGP Role (see Table 1).

                 +-------+------------------------------+
                 | Value | Role name (for the local AS) |
                 +-------+------------------------------+
                 |   0   | Provider                     |
                 |   1   | RS                           |
                 |   2   | RS-Client                    |
                 |   3   | Customer                     |
                 |   4   | Peer (Lateral Peer)          |
                 | 5-255 | Unassigned                   |
                 +-------+------------------------------+

                    Table 1: Predefined BGP Role Values

   If BGP Role is locally configured, the eBGP speaker MUST advertise
   BGP Role Capability in the BGP OPEN message.  An eBGP speaker MUST
   NOT advertise multiple versions of the BGP Role Capability.

3.2.  Role Correctness

   Section 3.1 described how BGP Role encodes the relationship on each
   eBGP session between autonomous systems (ASes).

   The mere receipt of BGP Role Capability does not automatically
   guarantee the Role agreement between two eBGP neighbors.  If the BGP
   Role Capability is advertised, and one is also received from the
   peer, the roles MUST correspond to the relationships in Table 2.  If
   the roles do not correspond, the BGP speaker MUST reject the
   connection using the Role Mismatch Notification (code 2, subcode
   TBD).

                    +---------------+----------------+
                    | Local AS Role | Remote AS Role |
                    +---------------+----------------+
                    | Provider      | Customer       |
                    | Customer      | Provider       |
                    | RS            | RS-Client      |
                    | RS-Client     | RS             |
                    | Peer          | Peer           |
                    +---------------+----------------+

                Table 2: Allowed Pairs of Role Capabilities

   For backward compatibility, if the BGP Role Capability is sent but
   one is not received, the BGP Speaker SHOULD ignore the absence of the
   BGP Role Capability and proceed with session establishment.  The
   locally configured BGP Role is used for the procedures described in
   Section 4.

Azimov, et al.            Expires July 11, 2022                 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft            Route Leak Prevention             January 2022

   An operator may choose to apply a "strict mode" in which the receipt
   of a BGP Role Capability from the remote AS is required.  When
   operating in the "strict mode", if the BGP Role Capability is sent,
   but one is not received, then the connection is rejected using the
   Role Mismatch Notification (code 2, subcode TBD).  See comments in
   Section 7.

   If an eBGP speaker receives multiple but identical BGP Role
   Capabilities with the same value in each, then the speaker must
   consider it to be a single BGP Role Capability and proceed [RFC5492].
   If multiple BGP Role Capabilities are received and not all of them
   have the same value, then the BGP speaker MUST reject the connection
   using the Role Mismatch Notification (code 2, subcode TBD).

   The BGP Role value for the local AS (in conjunction with the OTC
   Attribute in the received UPDATE message) is used in the route leak
   prevention and detection procedures described in Section 4.

4.  BGP Only to Customer (OTC) Attribute

   The Only to Customer (OTC) Attribute is an optional transitive path
   attribute of the UPDATE message with Attribute Type Code 35 and a
   length of 4 octets.  The purpose of this attribute is to guarantee
   that once a route is sent to a Customer, Peer, or RS-Client, it will
   subsequently go only to Customers.  The attribute value is an AS
   number (ASN) determined by the policy described below.

   The following ingress policy applies to the processing of the OTC
   Attribute:

   1.  If a route with the OTC Attribute is received from a Customer or
       RS-Client, then it is a route leak and MUST be considered
       ineligible (see Section 1.1).

   2.  If a route with the OTC Attribute is received from a Peer and the
       Attribute has a value that is not equal to the remote (i.e.,
       Peer's) AS number, then it is a route leak and MUST be considered
       ineligible.

   3.  If a route is received from a Provider, Peer, or RS, and the OTC
       Attribute is not present, then it MUST be added with a value
       equal to the AS number of the remote AS.

   The following egress policy applies to the processing of the OTC
   Attribute:

   1.  If a route is to be advertised to a Customer, Peer, or RS-Client
       (when the sender is an RS), and the OTC Attribute is not present,

Azimov, et al.            Expires July 11, 2022                 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft            Route Leak Prevention             January 2022

       then an OTC Attribute MUST be added with a value equal to the AS
       number of the local AS.

   2.  If a route already contains the OTC Attribute, it MUST NOT be
       propagated to Providers, Peers, or RS(s).

   The described policies provide both leak prevention for the local AS
   and leak detection and mitigation multiple hops away.  In the case of
   prevention at the local AS, the presence of an OTC Attribute
   indicates to the egress router that the route was learned from a
   Peer, Provider, or RS, and it can be advertised only to the
   customers.  The same OTC Attribute which is set locally also provides
   a way to detect route leaks by an AS multiple hops away if a route is
   received from a Customer, Peer, or RS-Client.

   The OTC Attribute may be set by the egress policy of the remote AS or
   by the ingress policy of the local AS.  In both scenarios, the OTC
   value will be the same.  This makes the scheme more robust and
   benefits early adopters.

   If an eBGP speaker receives an UPDATE with an OTC Attribute with a
   length different from 4 octets, then the UPDATE SHALL be considered
   malformed.  If malformed, the UPDATE message SHALL be handled using
   the approach of "treat-as-withdraw" [RFC7606].

   The procedures specified in this document are NOT RECOMMENDED to be
   used between autonomous systems in an AS Confederation [RFC5065].  If
   an OTC Attribute is added on egress from the AS Confederation, its
   value MUST equal the AS Confederation Identifier.  Also, on egress
   from the AS Confederation, an UPDATE MUST NOT contain an OTC
   Attribute with a value corresponding to any Member-AS Number other
   than the AS Confederation Identifier.

   The procedures specified in this document in scenarios that use
   private AS numbers behind an Internet-facing ASN (e.g., a data center
   network [RFC7938] or stub customer) may be used, but any details are
   outside the scope of this document.  On egress from the Internet-
   facing AS, the OTC Attribute MUST NOT contain a value other than the
   Internet-facing ASN.

   Once the OTC Attribute has been set, it MUST be preserved unchanged
   (this also applies to an AS Confederation).

   The described ingress and egress policies are applicable only for
   unicast IPv4 and IPv6 address families and MUST NOT be applied to
   other address families by default.  The operator MUST NOT have the
   ability to modify the policies defined in this section.

5.  Additional Considerations

   Roles MUST NOT be configured on an eBGP session with a Complex
   peering relationship.  If multiple eBGP sessions can segregate the
   Complex peering relationship into eBGP sessions with normal peering
   relationships, BGP Roles SHOULD be used on each of the resulting eBGP
   sessions.

   An operator may want to achieve an equivalent outcome by configuring
   policies on a per-prefix basis to follow the definitions of peering
   relations as described in Section 2.  However, in this case, there
   are no built-in measures to check the correctness of the per-prefix
   peering configuration.

   The incorrect setting of BGP Roles and/or OTC Attributes may affect
   prefix propagation.  Further, this document does not specify any
   special handling of incorrect AS numbers in the OTC Attribute.

6.  IANA Considerations

   IANA has registered a new BGP Capability (Section 3.1) in the
   "Capability Codes" registry's "IETF Review" range [RFC5492].  The
   description for the new capability is "BGP Role".  IANA has assigned
   the value 9 [to be removed upon publication:
   https://www.iana.org/assignments/capability-codes/capability-
   codes.xhtml].  This document is the reference for the new capability.

   The BGP Role capability includes a Value field, for which IANA is
   requested to create and maintain a new sub-registry called "BGP Role
   Value" in the Capability Codes registry.  Assignments consist of a
   Value and a corresponding Role name.  Initially, this registry is to
   be populated with the data contained in Table 1 found in Section 3.1.
   Future assignments may be made by the "IETF Review" policy as defined
   in [RFC8126].  The registry is as shown in Table 3.

        +-------+--------------------------------+---------------+
        | Value | Role name (for the local AS)   |   Reference   |
        +-------+--------------------------------+---------------+

        |   3   | Customer                       | This document |

   IANA has also registered a new path attribute named "Only to Customer
   (OTC)" (see Section 4) in the "BGP Path Attributes" registry.  IANA
   has assigned code value 35 [To be removed upon publication:

7.  Security Considerations

   The security considerations of BGP (as specified in [RFC4271] and
   [RFC4272]) apply.

   This document proposes a mechanism using BGP Role for the prevention
   and detection of route leaks that are the result of BGP policy
   misconfiguration.  A misconfiguration of the BGP Role may affect
   prefix propagation.  For example, if a downstream (i.e., towards a
   Customer) peering link were misconfigured with a Provider or Peer
   role, this will limit the number of prefixes that can be advertised
   in this direction.  On the other hand, if an upstream provider were
   misconfigured (by a local AS) with the Customer role, this may result
   in propagating routes that are received from other Providers or
   Peers.  But the BGP Role negotiation and the resulting confirmation
   of Roles make such misconfigurations unlikely.

   Setting the strict mode of operation for BGP Role negotiation as the
   default may result in a situation where the eBGP session will not
   come up after a software update.  Implementations with such default
   behavior are strongly discouraged.

   Removing the OTC Attribute or changing its value can limit the
   opportunity of route leak detection.  Such activity can be done on
   purpose as part of an on-path attack.  For example, an AS can remove
   the OTC Attribute on a received route and then leak the route to its
   transit provider.  This kind of threat is not new in BGP and it may
   affect any Attribute (Note: BGPsec [RFC8205] offers protection only
   for the AS_PATH Attribute).

   Adding an OTC Attribute when the route is advertised from Customer to
   Provider will limit the propagation of the route.  Such a route may
   be considered as ineligible by the immediate Provider or its Peers or
   upper layer Providers.  This kind of OTC Attribute addition is

   unlikely to happen on the Provider side because it will limit the
   traffic volume towards its Customer.  On the Customer side, adding an
   OTC Attribute for traffic engineering purposes is also discouraged
   because it will limit route propagation in an unpredictable way.
