           Traffic Steering using BGP FlowSpec with SR Policy
               draft-ietf-idr-ts-flowspec-srv6-policy-02

Abstract

   BGP Flow Specification (FlowSpec) [RFC8955] [RFC8956] has been
   proposed to distribute BGP FlowSpec NLRI to FlowSpec clients to
   mitigate (distributed) denial-of-service attacks, and to provide
   traffic filtering in the context of a BGP/MPLS VPN service.
   Recently, traffic steering applications in the context of SR-MPLS and
   SRv6 using FlowSpec also attract attention.  This document introduces
   the usage of BGP FlowSpec to steer packets into an SR Policy.

1.  Introduction

   SR-MPLS [RFC8660] forwards data packets using the source routing
   model.  The core idea of SR-MPLS is to divide a packet forwarding
   path into different segments, allocate segment identifiers (SIDs) to
   the segments, and encapsulate segment information into packets at the
   ingress of the path to guide packet forwarding.

   Segment Routing IPv6 (SRv6) is a protocol designed to forward IPv6
   data packets on a network using the source routing model.  SRv6
   enables the ingress network device to add a segment routing header
   (SRH) [RFC8754] to an IPv6 packet and push an explicit IPv6 address
   stack into the SRH.  After receiving the packet, each transit node
   updates the IPv6 destination IP address in the packet and segment
   list to implement hop-by-hop forwarding.

Internet-Draft           FlowSpec with SR Policy              March 2023

   SR Policy (includes SR-MPLS and SRv6 Policy) [RFC9256] is a tunneling
   technology developed based on SR-MPLS and SRv6.  An SR Policy is a
   set of candidate paths consisting of one or more segment lists, that
   is, segment ID (SID) lists.  Each SID list identifies an end-to-end
   path from the source node to the destination node, instructing a
   network device to forward traffic through the path rather than the
   shortest path computed using an IGP.  The header of a packet steered
   into an SR Policy is augmented with an ordered list of segments
   associated with that SR Policy, so that other devices on the network
   can execute the instructions encapsulated into the list.

   The headend of an SR Policy may learn multiple candidate paths for an
   SR Policy.  Candidate paths may be learned via a number of different
   mechanisms, e.g., CLI, NetConf,
   PCEP[I-D.ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp], or
   BGP[I-D.ietf-idr-segment-routing-te-policy].

   [RFC8955] [RFC8956] defines the flow specification (FlowSpec) that
   allows to convey flow specifications and traffic Action/Rules
   associated (rate- limiting, redirect, remark ...).  BGP Flow
   specifications are encoded within the MP_REACH_NLRI and
   MP_UNREACH_NLRI attributes[RFC4760].  Rules (Actions associated) are
   encoded in Extended Community attribute[RFC4360].  The BGP Flow
   Specification function allows BGP Flow Specification routes that
   carry traffic policies to be transmitted to BGP Flow Specification
   peers to steer traffic.

   This document proposes BGP flow specification usage that are used to
   steer data flow into an SR Policy as well as to indicate Tailend
   function for SRv6 scenario.  This work is helpful for promoting the
   deployment of SR-MPLS and SRv6 networks.

3.  Operations

   An SR Policy [RFC9256] is identified through the tuple <headend,
   color, endpoint>.  In the context of a specific headend, one may
   identify an SR Policy by the <color, endpoint> tuple.  The headend is
   the node where the SR Policy is instantiated/implemented.  The
   headend is specified as an IPv4 or IPv6 address and is expected to be
   unique in the domain.  The endpoint indicates the destination of the
   SR Policy.  The endpoint is specified as an IPv4 or IPv6 address and
   is expected to be unique in the domain.  The color is a 32-bit
   unsigned numerical value that associates with the SR policy, and it
   defines an application-level network Service Level Agreement (SLA)
   policy or intent.

   Assume one or multiple SR Policies are already setup/instantiated in
   the SR HeadEnd device.  In order to steer traffic into a specific SR
   Policy at the Headend, one can use the SR Color Extended community
   [RFC9012] and endpoint to map to a satisfying SR Policy, and steer
   the traffic into this specific SR Policy.

   [I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-redirect-ip] defines the redirect to IPv4 and
   IPv6 Next-hop action.  The IPv4 next-hop address in the Flow-spec
   Redirect to IPv4 Extended Community can be used to specify the
   endpoint of the SR Policy, and the IPv6 next-hop address in the Flow-
   spec Redirect to IPv6 Extended Community[RFC5701] can be used to
   specify the endpoint of the SRv6 Policy.  When the packets reach to
   the TailEnd device, some specific function information identifiers
   can be used to decide how to further process the flows in SRv6
   scenario.  Several endpoint functions are already defined, e.g.,
   End.DT6: Endpoint with decapsulation and IPv6 table lookup, and
   End.DX6: Endpoint with decapsulation and IPv6 cross-connect.  The BGP
   Prefix-SID defined in [RFC8669] is utilized to enable SRv6 VPN
   services [RFC9252].  SRv6 Services TLVs within the BGP Prefix-SID
   Attribute can be used to indicate the endpoint functions.

   For SR-MPLS scenario, this document proposes to carry the Color
   Extended Community and the Flow-spec Redirect to IPv4 Extended
   Community in the context of a Flowspec NLRI [RFC8955] [RFC8956] to an
   SR-MPLS Headend to steer traffic into one SR-MPLS Policy.

   For SRv6 scenario, this document proposes to carry the Color Extended
   Community, the Flow-spec Redirect to IPv6 Extended Community and BGP
   Prefix-SID Attribute in the context of a Flowspec NLRI [RFC8955]
   [RFC8956] to an SRv6 Headend to steer traffic into one SRv6 Policy,
   as well as to indicate specific Tailend functions.

Internet-Draft           FlowSpec with SR Policy              March 2023

   For the case that a flowspec route carries multiple Color Extend
   Communities, the Color Extended community with the highest numerical
   value will be given higher preference per the description in
   Section 8.4.1 of [RFC9256].

   The method proposed in this document supports load balancing to the
   tailend device.  To achieve that, the headend device CAN set up
   multiple paths in one SR Policy, and use a Flowspec route to indicate
   the specific SR Policy.

4.  SR-MPLS Application Examples

   In following scenario, BGP FlowSpec Controller signals the filter
   rules, the Flow-spec Redirect to IPv4 action, and the policy color to
   the SR-MPLS HeadEnd device.

      +------------+
      |  BGP FS    |
      | Controller |
      +------------+
         | FlowSpec route to HeadEnd:
         |   NLRI: Filter Rules
         |   Redirect to IPv4 Nexthop: TailEnd's Address
         |   Policy Color: C0
         |
         |          .-----.
         |         (       )
         V     .--(         )--.
   +-------+  (                 )  +-------+
   |       |_(  SR-MPLS Network  )_|       |
   |HeadEnd| ( ================> ) |TailEnd|
   +-------+  (SR List<S1,S2,S3>)  +-------+
               '--(         )--'
                   (       )
                    '-----'

         Figure 1: Steering the Traffic Flow into SR-MPLS Policy

   When the SR-MPLS HeadEnd device (as a FlowSpec client) receives such
   instructions from BGP FS Controller, it will steer the traffic flows
   matching the criteria in the FlowSpec route into the SR-MPLS Policy
   matching the tuple (Endpoint: TailEnd's Address, Color: C0).  And the
   packets of such traffic flows will be encapsulated with MPLS stack
   using the SR List <S1, S2, S3> in the HeadEnd device, then send the
   packets to the TailEnd device along the path indicated by the SR
   list.

5.  SRv6 Application Examples

   In following scenario, BGP FlowSpec Controller signals the filter
   rules, the redirect to IPv6 Nexthop action, the policy color and the
   function information (SRv6 SID: Service_id_x) to the HeadEnd device.

      +------------+
      |  BGP FS    |
      | Controller |
      +------------+
         | FlowSpec route to HeadEnd:
         |   NLRI: Filter Rules
         |   Redirect to IPv6 Nexthop: TailEnd's Address
         |   Policy Color: C1
         |   PrefixSID: Service_id_x
         |          .-----.
         |         (       )
         V     .--(         )--.
   +-------+  (                 )  +-------+
   |       |_( SRv6 Core Network )_|       |
   |HeadEnd| ( ================> ) |TailEnd|
   +-------+  (SR List<S1,S2,S3>)  +-------+
               '--(         )--'   Service SID: Service_id_x
                   (       )       (e.g.: End.DT4 or End.DT6 or others)
                    '-----'

         Figure 2: Steering the Traffic Flow into SRv6 Policy (Option 1)

   When the HeadEnd device (as a FlowSpec client) receives such
   instructions from BGP FS Controller, it will steer the traffic flows
   matching the criteria in the FlowSpec route into the SRv6 Policy
   matching the tuple (Endpoint: TailEnd's Address, Color: C1).  And the
   packets of such traffic flows will be encapsulated with SRH(Segment
   Routing Header) using the SR List <S1, S2, S3, Service_id_x>.  When
   the packets reach to the TailEnd device, they will be further
   processed per the function denoted by the Service_id_x.

   When the HeadEnd device determines (with the help of SRv6 SID
   Structure) that the Service SID belongs to the same SRv6 Locator as
   the last SRv6 SID of the TailEnd device in the SRv6 Policy segment
   list, it MAY exclude that last SRv6 SID when steering the service
   flow.  For example, the effective segment list of the SRv6 Policy
   associated with SID list <S1, S2, S3> would be replaced as <S1, S2,
   Service_id_x>.

Internet-Draft           FlowSpec with SR Policy              March 2023

   If the last SRv6 SID (For example, S3 we use here) of the TailEnd
   device in the SRv6 Policy segment list is USD-flavored, an SRv6
   Service SID (e.g., End.DT4 or End.DT6) is not required when BGP
   FlowSpec Controller sends the FlowSpec route to the HeadEnd device
   (as a FlowSpec client).

      +------------+
      |  BGP FS    |
      | Controller |
      +------------+
         | FlowSpec route to HeadEnd:
         |   NLRI: Filter Rules
         |   Redirect to IPv6 Nexthop: TailEnd's Address
         |   Policy Color: C2
         |          .-----.
         |         (       )
         V     .--(         )--.
   +-------+  (                 )  +-------+
   |       |_( SRv6 Core Network )_|       |
   |HeadEnd| ( ================> ) |TailEnd|
   +-------+  (SR List<S1,S2,S3>)  +-------+
               '--(         )--'
                   (       )
                    '-----'
   Note: S3 MUST be a USD-flavored SRv6 SID of the TailEnd

         Figure 3: Steering the Traffic Flow into SRv6 Policy (Option 2)

   When the HeadEnd device (as a FlowSpec client) receives such
   instructions from BGP FS Controller, it will steer the traffic flows
   matching the criteria in the Flowspec route into the SRv6 Policy
   matching the tuple (Endpoint: TailEnd's Address, Color: C2).  And the
   packets of such traffic flows will be encapsulated with SRH(Segment
   Routing Header) using the SR List <S1, S2, S3>.  When the packets
   reach to the TailEnd device, they will be further processed per the
   function denoted by the USD-flavored SRv6 SID S3.

   At this point, the work discusses the matching of global routing
   table prefixes.

   For the cases of intra-AS and inter-AS traffic steering using this
   method, the usages of Flowspec Color Extended Community with BGP
   prefix SID are the same for both scenarios.  The difference lies
   between the local SRv6 policy configurations.  For the inter-domain
   case, the operator can configure an inter-domain SRv6 policy/path at
   the Headend device.  For the intra-domain case, the operator can
   configure an intra-domain SRv6 policy/path at the Headend device.
