Application Specific Attributes Advertisement with BGP Link-State
draft-ketant-idr-bgp-ls-app-specific-attr-01
Abstract
Various link attributes have been defined in link-state routing
protocols like OSPF and IS-IS in the context of the MPLS Traffic
Engineering (TE) and GMPLS. BGP Link-State (BGP-LS) extensions have
been defined to distribute these attributes along with other topology
information from these link-state routing protocols. Many of these
link attributes can be used for applications other than MPLS TE or
GMPLS.
Extensions to link-state routing protocols have been defined for such
link attributes which enable distribution of their application
specific values. This document defines extensions to BGP-LS address-
family to enable advertisement of these application specific
attributes as a part of the topology information from the network.

1. Introduction
Various link attributes have been defined in link-state routing
protocols (viz. IS-IS [RFC1195], OSPFv2 [RFC2328] and OSPFv3
[RFC5340] ) in the context of the MPLS traffic engineering and GMPLS.
All these attributes are distributed by these protocols using TLVs
that were originally defined for traditional MPLS Traffic Engineering
(i.e. using RSVP-TE [RFC3209]) or GMPLS [RFC4202] applications.
