               draft-ietf-pce-pcep-extension-native-ip-08

Abstract

   This document defines the Path Computation Element Communication
   Protocol (PCEP) extension for Central Control Dynamic Routing (CCDR)
   based application in Native IP network.  The scenario and framework
   of CCDR in native IP is described in [RFC8735] and
   [I-D.ietf-teas-pce-native-ip].  This draft describes the key
   information that is transferred between Path Computation Element
   (PCE) and Path Computation Clients (PCC) to accomplish the End to End
   (E2E) traffic assurance in Native IP network under central control
   mode.

1.  Introduction

   Traditionally, Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering
   (MPLS-TE) requires the corresponding network devices support
   Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or Resource ReSerVation Protocol
   (RSVP)/Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) technologies to assure the
   End-to-End (E2E) traffic performance.  But in native IP network,
   there will be no such signaling protocol to synchronize the action
   among different network devices.  It is necessary to use the central
   control mode that described in [RFC8283] to correlate the forwarding
   behavior among different network devices.  Draft
   [I-D.ietf-teas-pce-native-ip] describes the architecture and solution
   philosophy for the E2E traffic assurance in Native IP network via
   Dual/Multi Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) solution.  This draft
   describes the corresponding Path Computation Element Communication
   Protocol (PCEP) extensions to transfer the key information about peer

   This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC5440]: PCE,
   PCEP

   The following terms are defined in this document:

   o  CCDR: Central Control Dynamic Routing

   o  E2E: End to End

   o  BPI: BGP Peer Info

   o  EPR: Explicit Peer Route

   o  PPA: Peer Prefix Association

4.  STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY TLV

   The format of STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY is defined in [RFC8231] and
   included here for easy reference with the addition of the new N flag.
   The right bits of N flag have been defined by other RFC documents.

     0                   1                   2                   3

              Figure 1: STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY TLV Format

   A new flag is defined to indicate the sender's support for traffic
   engineering in Native IP network.  The newly defined PCEP Objects and
   its proceeding procedures, as stated in Section 6 MUST be supported
   by PCC or PCE when this flag is set.

Wang, et al.             Expires March 18, 2021                 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft    PCEP Extension for Native IP Network    September 2020

   N( NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY-----1 bit): If set to 1 by a PCC/PCE, the
   N flag indicate that the PCC/PCE can support the traffic engineering
   in Native IP network.  The NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY flag MUST be set
   by both the PCC and PCE in order to enable PCE-initiated Native IP
   traffic engineering.

5.  PCE-Initiated Native IP TE Procedures

   PCE-Initated Native IP TE solution utilizing the existing PCE LSP
   Initate Request message(PCInitiate)[RFC8281], PCE Report
   message(PCRpt) [RFC8281]and PCE Update message(PCUpd)[RFC8281] to
   accomplish the multi BGP sessions establishment, end to end TE path
   deployment, and route prefixes advertisement among different BGP
   sessions.

   There is no label switch path within the Native IP environment, but
   there exist end to end forwarding path that assigned to the priority
   traffic.  Such path can be identified by the PLSP-ID that defined in
   Label Switched Path(LSP) object [RFC8231]_. _The PLSP-ID is assigned
   by each PCC, based on the Symbolic Path Name TLV in the LSP object
   that from PCInitiate message.  The Symbolic Path Name TLV can be used
   to identify the end to end TE path in Native IP environment.  The
   association of Symbolic Path Name and each PLSP-ID in every PCC
   assures the TE policies are assigned end to end in the network.

6.  New Objects Extension

   Three new objects are defined in this draft:

   o  BPI Object: BGP Peer Info Object, used to indicate the PCC which
      BGP peer it should be peered with dynamically.

   o  EPR Object: Explicit Peer Route object, used to indicate the PCC
      which route should be taken into to arrive to the peer.

   o  PPA Object: Peer Prefix Association Object, used to indicate the
      PCC which prefixes should be advertised via the corresponding BGP
      peer.

7.  Objects Formats

   Each extension object takes the similar format, that is to say, it
   began with the common object header defined in [RFC5440] as the
   following:

   Different object-class, object type and the corresponding object body
   is defined separately in the following sections.

7.1.  BGP Peer Info Object

   The BGP Peer Info object is used to specify the information about the
   peer that the PCC should establish the BGP relationship with.  This
   object should only be included and sent to the head and end router of
   the E2E path in case there is no Route Reflection (RR) involved.  If
   the RR is used between the head and end routers, then such
   information should be sent to head router, RR and end router
   respectively.

   By default, there MUST be no prefix be distributed via such BGP
   session that established by this object.

   By default, the Local/Peer IP address SHOULD be dedicated to the
   usage of native IP TE solution, and SHOULD not be used by other BGP
   sessions that established by manual or non PCE initiated
   configuration.

   BGP Peer Info Object-Class is TBD

   BGP Peer Info Object-Type is 1 for IPv4 and 2 for IPv6

   The format of the BGP Peer Info object body for IPv4(Object-Type=1)
   is as follows:

   When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 0 in SRP object
   in PCInitiate message, the PCC should try to establish the BGP
   session with the indicated Peer AS and Local/Peer IP address.

   When PCC creates successfully the BGP session that is indicated by
   the associated information, it should report the result via the PCRpt
   messages, with this object included, and the corresponding SRP and
   LSP object.

   When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 1 in SRP object
   in PCInitiate message, the PCC should clear the BGP session that
   indicated by Local/Peer IP address.

   When PCC clears successfully the specified BGP session, it should
   report the result via the PCRpt message, with this object included,
   and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.

   When PCC receives this object with the LSP object in PCE Update
   message, the PCC should update the BGP session that identified by the
   PLSP-ID with the updated information contained in this object.

   When PCC updates successfully the BGP session that is indicated by
   the PLSP-ID, it should report the result via the PCRpt message, with
   this object included, and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.

   Upon PCC can't build the BGP session that required by this object, it
   should report the error values with the newly defined error type and
   error value, which is indicated in Section 8

7.2.  Explicit Peer Route Object

   The Explicit Peer Route object is defined to specify the explicit
   peer route to the corresponding peer address on each device that is
   on the E2E assurance path.  This Object should be sent to all the
   devices that locates on the E2E assurance path that calculated by
   PCE.

   The path established by this object should have higher priority than
   other path calculated by dynamic IGP protocol, but should be lower
   priority that the static route configured by manual or NETCONF
   channel.

   Explicit Peer Route Object-Class is TBD.

   Explicit Peer Route Object-Type is 1 for IPv4 and 2 for IPv6

   The format of Explicit Peer Route object body for IPv4(Object-Type=1)
   is as follows:

   When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 0 in SRP object
   in PCInitiate message, the PCC should install the explicit route to
   the the peer.

   When PCC install successfully the explicit route to the peer, it
   should report the result via the PCRpt messages, with this object

   When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 1 in SRP object
   in PCInitiate message, the PCC should clear the explicit route to the
   peer that indicated by this object.

   When PCC clear successfully the explicit route that indicated by this
   object, it should report the result via the PCRpt message, with this
   object included, and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.

   When PCC receives this object in PCUpd message, the PCC should update
   the explicit route according to info indicated in this object.

   When PCC updates the path successfully, it should report the result
   via the PCRpt message, with this object included, and the
   corresponding SRP and LSP object.

   Upon the error occurs, the PCC SHOULD send the corresponding error
   information that defined in Section 8

7.3.  Peer Prefix Association Object

   The Peer Prefix Association object is defined to specify the IP
   prefixes that should be advertised to the corresponding peer.  This
   object should only be included and sent to the head/end router of the
   end2end path.

   The prefixes information included in this object MUST only be
   advertised to the indicated peer, MUST not be advertised to other BGP
   peers.

   Peer Prefix Association Object-Class is TBD

   Peer Prefix Association Object-Type is 1 for IPv4 and 2 for IPv6

   The format of the Peer Prefix Association object body is as follows:

   When PCC receives this object in PCUpd message, it should update the
   BGP routes advertised to the associated peer.

   When PCC updates the advertised BGP routes successfully, it should
   report the result via the PCRpt message, with this object included,
   and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.

   The IPv4 prefix MUST only be advertised via the IPv4 BGP session and
   the IPv6 prefix MUST only be advertised via the IPv6 BGP session.  If
   mismatch occur, an error should be reported.

   When the peer info that associated with the PLSP-ID is not the same
   as the peer info that indicated in this object in PCC, a error should
   be reported via the PCRpt message.

   Upon the error occurs, the PCC SHOULD send the corresponding error
   information that defined in Section 8

   The object type of the above three objects should be identical to
   assure the prefixes from one address family are advertised via the
   peer belong to same address family, and the traffic is forwarded to
   the next hop also belong to same address family.  If the mismatch
   occur, the error should be reported to the PCE.

   For one PLSP-ID on the PCC, the object type of PAL object should be
   equal to object type of PPA object.  If not, the mismatch occurs and
   the related error should be reported.

8.  New Error-Types and Error-Values Defined

   A PCEP-ERROR object is used to report a PCEP error and is
   characterized by an Error-Type that specifies that type of error and
   an Error-value that provides additional information about the error.
   An additional Error-Type and several Error-values are defined to
   represent some the errors related to the newly defined objects, which
   are related to Native IP TE procedures.

9.  Management Consideration

   The information transferred in this draft is mainly used for the
   light weight BGP session setup, explicit route deployment and the
   prefix distribution.  The planning, allocation and distribution of
   the peer addresses within IGP should be accomplished in advanced and
   they are out of the scope of this draft.

   [RFC8232] describes the state synchronization procedure between
   stateful PCE and PCC.  The communication of PCE and PCC described in
   this draft should also follow this procedures, treat the three newly
   defined objects that associated with the same symbolic path name as
   the attribute of the same path in the LSP-DB.

   When PCE detects one or some of the PCCs are out of control, it
   should recompute and redeploy the traffic engineering path for native
   IP on the active PCCs.  When PCC detects that it is out of control of
   the PCE, it should clear the information that initiated by the PCE.
   The PCE should assures the avoidance of possible transient loop in
   such node failure when it deploy the explicit peer route on the PCCs.

10.  Security Considerations

   Service provider should consider the protection of PCE and their
   communication with the underlay devices, which is described in
   document [RFC5440] and [RFC8253]
