   topological sub-paths, called "segments".  These segments are
   advertised by the link-state routing protocols (IS-IS and OSPF).

   This draft describes the necessary IS-IS extensions that need to be
   introduced for Segment Routing.

1.  Introduction

   Segment Routing (SR) allows for a flexible definition of end-to-end
   paths within IGP topologies by encoding paths as sequences of
   topological sub-paths, called "segments".  These segments are
   advertised by the link-state routing protocols (IS-IS and OSPF).  Two
   types of segments are defined, Prefix segments and Adjacency
   segments.  Prefix segments represent an ecmp-aware shortest-path to a
   prefix, as per the state of the IGP topology.  Adjacency segments
   represent a hop over a specific adjacency between two nodes in the
   IGP.  A prefix segment is typically a multi-hop path while an
   adjacency segment, in most of the cases, is a one-hop path.  SR's
   control-plane can be applied to both IPv6 and MPLS data-planes, and
   do not require any additional signaling (other than the regular IGP).
   For example, when used in MPLS networks, SR paths do not require any
   LDP or RSVP-TE signaling.  Still, SR can interoperate in the presence
   of LSPs established with RSVP or LDP.

   This draft describes the necessary IS-IS extensions that need to be
   introduced for Segment Routing.

   Segment Routing architecture is described in
   [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing].

   Segment Routing use cases are described in
   [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing-use-cases].

2.  Segment Routing Identifiers

   Segment Routing architecture ([I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing])
   defines different types of Segment Identifiers (SID).  This document
   defines the IS-IS encodings for the IGP-Prefix-SID, the IGP-
   Adjacency-SID, the IGP-LAN-Adjacency-SID and the Binding-SID.

2.1.  SID/Label Sub-TLV

   The SID/Label Sub-TLV is present in multiple Sub-TLVs defined in this
   document and contains a SID or a MPLS Label.  The SID/Label Sub-TLV
   has the following format:

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |                          SID/Label (variable)                 |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   where:

      Type: TBA

      Length: variable (3 or 4)

      SID/Label: if length is set to 3 then the 20 rightmost bits
      represent a MPLS label.  If length is 4 then the value represents
      a 32 bits SID.

2.2.  Prefix Segment Identifier (Prefix-SID Sub-TLV)

   A new IS-IS Sub-TLV is defined: the Prefix Segment Identifier Sub-TLV
   (Prefix-SID Sub-TLV).

   The Prefix-SID Sub-TLV carries the Segment Routing IGP-Prefix-SID as
   defined in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing].  The 'Prefix SID'
   must be unique within a given IGP domain.  The 'Prefix SID' is an
   index to determine the actual SID/label value inside the set of all
   advertised SID/label ranges of a given router.  A receiving router
   uses the index to determine the actual SID/label value in order to
   construct forwarding state to a particular destination router.

   In many use-cases a 'stable transport' IP Address is overloaded as an
   identifier of a given node.  Because the IP Prefixes may be re-
   advertised into other levels there may be some ambiguity (e.g.
   Originating router vs. L1L2 router) for which node a particular IP
   prefix serves as identifier.  The Prefix-SID Sub-TLV contains the
   necessary flags to dissambiguate IP Prefix to node mappings.
   Furthermore if a given node has several 'stable transport' IP
   adresses there are flags to differentiate those among other IP
   Prefixes advertised from a given node.

   A Prefix-SID Sub-TLV is associated to a prefix advertised by a node
   and MAY be present in any of the following TLVs:

      TLV-135 (IPv4) defined in [RFC5305].

Previdi, et al.          Expires April 24, 2014                 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft    IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing      October 2013

      TLV-235 (MT-IPv4) defined in [RFC5120].

      TLV-236 (IPv6) defined in [RFC5308].

      TLV-237 (MT-IPv6) defined in [RFC5120].

   The Index inside the Prefix-SID Sub-TLV MUST be preserved when an IP
   Reachability TLV gets propagated across level boundaries.

   The Prefix-SID Sub-TLV has the following format:

    0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |   Type        |     Length    |     Flags     |   Algorithm   |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |                        SID/Index                              |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   where:

      Type: TBA

      Length: variable.

      Flags: 1 octet field of following flags:

   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |R|N|P|         |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

      where:

         R-Flag: Re-advertisement flag.  If set, then the prefix to
         which this Prefix-SID is attached, has been propagated by the
         router either from another level (i.e.: from level-1 to level-2
         or the opposite) or from redistribution (e.g.: from another
         protocol).

         N-Flag: Node-SID flag.  Optional and, if set, then the Prefix-
         SID refers to the router identified by the prefix.  Typically,
         the N-Flag is set on Prefix-SIDs attached to a router loopback
         address.  The N-Flag is set when the Prefix-SID is a Node-SID
         as described in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing].

Previdi, et al.          Expires April 24, 2014                 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft    IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing      October 2013

         P-Flag: no-PHP flag.  If set, then the penultimate hop MUST NOT
         pop the Prefix-SID before delivering the packet to the node
         that advertised the Prefix-SID.

         Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when
         received.

      Algorithm: the router may use various algorithms when calculating
      reachability to other nodes or to prefixes attached to these
      nodes.  Examples of these algorithms are metric based Shortest
      Path First (SPF), various sorts of Constrained SPF, etc.  The
      Algorithm field allows a router to advertise algorithms that
      router is currently using.  SR-Algorithm TLV has following
      structure: one octet identifying the algorithm to which the
      Prefix-SID is associated.  Currently, the following value has been
      defined:

         0: Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm based on link metric.

         Definitions and use of algorithms in Segment Routing are
         described in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing]

      SID/Index: 32 bit index defining the offset in the SID/Label space
      advertised by this router using the encodings defined in
      Section 3.1.

   Multiple Prefix-SIDs Sub-TLVs MAY appear on the same prefix in which
   case each SID is encoded as a separate Sub-TLV.  When multiple
   Prefix-SID Sub-TLVs are present, the receiving router MUST use the
   first encoded SID and MAY use the subsequent ones.

   The No-PHP flag MUST be set on the Prefix-SIDs associated with
   reachability advertisements which were originated by other routers
   and leaked (either from Level-1 to Level-2 or vice versa).

   The R-Flag MUST be set for prefixes that are not local to the router
   and either:

      advertised because of propagation (Level-1 into Level-2);

      advertised because of leaking (Level-2 into Level-1);

      advertised because redistribution (e.g.: from another protocol).

   In the case where a Level-1-2 router has local interface addresses
   configured in one level, it may also propagate these addresses into
   the other level.  In such case, the Level-1-2 router MUST NOT set the
   R bit.  The R-bit MUST be set only for prefixes that are not local to

   the router and advertised by the router because of propagation and/or
   leaking.

   The N-Flag is used in order to define a Node-SID.  A router MAY set
   the N-Flag only if all of the following conditions are met:

      The prefix to which the Prefix-SID is attached is local to the
      router.  I.e.: the prefix is configured on one of the local
      interfaces. (e.g.: 'stable transport' loopback).

      The prefix to which the Prefix-SID is attached MUST have a Prefix
      length of either /32 (IPv4) or /128 (IPv6).

   The router MUST ignore the N-Flag on a received Prefix-SID if the
   prefix has a Prefix length different than /32 (IPv4) or /128 (IPv6).

   The router behavior determined by the P, R and N flags are described
   in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing].

2.3.  Adjacency Segment Identifier (Adj-SID) Sub-TLV

   A new IS-IS Sub-TLV is defined: the Adjacency Segment Identifier Sub-
   TLV (Adj-SID Sub-TLV).

   The Adj-SID Sub-TLV is an optional Sub-TLV carrying the Segment
   Routing IGP-Adjacency-SID as defined in
   [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing] with flags and fields that may
   be used, in future extensions of Segment Routing, for carrying other
   types of SIDs.

   IS-IS adjacencies are advertised using one of the IS-Neighbor TLVs
   below:

      TLV-22 [RFC5305]

      TLV-222 [RFC5120]

      TLV-23 [RFC5311]

      TLV-223 [RFC5311]

      TLV-141 [RFC5316]

   Multiple Adj-SID Sub-TLVs MAY be associated with a single IS-
   neighbor.  Examples where more than one Adj-SID may be used per IS-
   neighbor are described in
   [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing-use-cases].

2.3.1.  Adjacency Segment Identifier (Adj-SID) Sub-TLV

   The following format is defined for the Adj-SID Sub-TLV:

    0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |   Type        |     Length    |     Flags     |     Weight    |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |               SID/Label Sub-TLV (variable)                    |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   where:

      Type: TBA

      Length: variable.

      Flags: 1 octet field of following flags:

         0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
         |F|B|         |
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

      where:

         F-Flag: Address-Family flag.  If unset, then the Adj-SID refers
         to an adjacency with outgoing IPv4 encapsulation.  If set then
         the Adj-SID refers to an adjacency with outgoing IPv6
         encapsulation.

         B-Flag: Backup flag.  If set, the Adj-SID refers to an
         adjacency being protected (e.g.: using IPFRR or MPLS-FRR) as
         described in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing-use-cases].

         Other bits: MUST be zero when originated and ignored when
         received.

      Weight: 1 octet.  The value represents the weight of the Adj-SID
      for the purpose of load balancing.  The use of the weight is
      defined in [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing].

      SID/Label Sub-TLV: contains the SID/Label value as defined in
      Section 2.1.

Previdi, et al.          Expires April 24, 2014                 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft    IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing      October 2013

      An SR capable router MAY allocate an Adj-SID for each of its
      adjacencies and SHOULD set the B-Flag when the adjacency is
      protected by a FRR mechanism (IP or MPLS) as described in
      [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing-use-cases].

      The F-flag is used in order for the router to advertise the
      outgoing encapsulation of the adjacency the Adj-SID is attached
      to.  Use cases of the use of the F-flag are described in
      [I-D.filsfils-rtgwg-segment-routing-use-cases].

2.3.2.  Adjacency Segment Identifiers in LANs

   In LAN subnetworks, the Designated Intermediate System (DIS) is
   elected and originates the Pseudonode-LSP (PN-LSP) including all
   neighbors of the DIS.

   When Segment Routing is used, each router in the LAN MAY advertise
   the Adj-SID of each of its neighbors.  Since, on LANs, each router
   only advertises one adjacency to the DIS (and doesn't advertise any
   other adjacency), each router advertises the set of Adj-SIDs (for
   each of its neighbors) inside a newly defined Sub-TLV part of the TLV
   advertising the adjacency to the DIS (e.g.: TLV-22).

   The following new Sub-TLV is defined: LAN-Adj-SID containing the set
   of Adj-SIDs the router assigned to each of its LAN neighbors.

   The format of the LAN-Adj-SID Sub-TLV is as follows:

    0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |   Type        |     Length    |      Flags    |    Weight     |

2.4.  SID/Label Binding TLV

   The SID/Label Binding TLV MAY be originated by any router in an IS-IS
   domain.  The router may advertise a SID/Label binding to a FEC along
   with at least a single 'nexthop style' anchor.  The protocol supports
   more than one 'nexthop style' anchor to be attached to a SID/Label
   binding, which results into a simple path description language.  In
   analogy to RSVP the terminology for this is called an 'Explicit Route
   Object' (ERO).  Since ERO style path notation allows to anchor SID/
   label bindings to to both link and node IP addresses any label
   switched path, can be described.  Furthermore also SID/Label Bindings
   from external protocols can get easily re-advertised.

   The SID/Label Binding TLV may be used for advertising SID/Label
   Bindings and their associated Primary and Backup paths.  In one
   single TLV either a primary ERO Path, a backup ERO Path or both are
   advertised.  If a router wants to advertise multiple parallel paths
   then it can generate several TLVs for the same Prefix/FEC.  Each
   occurence of a Binding TLV with respect with a given FEC Prefix has
   accumulating and not canceling semantics.  Due the space constraints
   in the 8-Bit IS-IS TLVs an originating router MAY encode a primary
   ERO path in one SID/Label Binding TLV and the backup ERO path in a
   second SID/Label Binding TLV.  Note that the FEC Prefix and SID/Label
   Sub-TLV MUST be identical in both TLVs.

   The SID/Label Binding TLV has type TBA and has the following format:

      0                   1                   2                   3

   It is not expected that a network operator will be able to keep fully
   continuous FEC Prefix / SID/Index mappings.  In order to support
   noncontinuous mapping ranges an implementation MAY generate several
   instances of Binding TLVs.

   For example if a router wants to advertise the following ranges:

      Range 16: { 192.168.1.1-15, Index 1-15 }

      Range 6: { 192.168.1.22-27, Index 22-27 }

      Range 41: { 192.168.1.44-84, Index 80-120 }

   A router would need to advertise three instances of the Binding TLV.

2.4.4.  Prefix Length, Prefix

   The 'FEC Prefix' represents the Forwarding equivalence class at the
   tail-end of the advertised path.  The 'FEC Prefix' does not need to
   correspond to a routable prefix of the originating node.

   The 'Prefix Length' field contains the length of the prefix in bits.
   Only the most significant octets of the Prefix FEC are encoded.  I.e.
   1 octet for FEC prefix length 1 up to 8, 2 octets for FEC prefix
   length 9 to 16, 3 octets for FEC prefix length 17 up to 24 and 4
   octets for FEC prefix length 25 up to 32, ...., 16 octets for FEC
   prefix length 113 up to 128.

2.4.5.  SID/Label Sub-TLV

   The SID/Label Sub-TLV contains the SID/Label value as defined in
   Section 2.1.  It MUST be present in every SID/Label Binding TLV.

2.4.6.  IPv4 ERO subTLV

   The IPv4 ERO subTLV (Type TBA) describes a path segment using IPv4
   address style of encoding.  Its semantics have been borrowed from
   [RFC3209].

   The 'L' bit in the Flags is a one-bit attribute.  If the L bit is
   set, then the value of the attribute is 'loose.'  Otherwise, the
   value of the attribute is 'strict.'

   The Unnumbered Interface-ID ERO subTLV (Type TBA) describes a path
   segment that spans over an unnumbered interface.  Unnumbered
   interfaces are referenced using the interface index.  Interface
   indices are assigned local to the router and therefore not unique
   within a domain.  All elements in an ERO path need to be unique
   within a domain and hence need to be disambiguated using a domain
   unique Router-ID.

   The 'Router-ID' field contains the router ID of the router which has
   assigned the 'Interface ID' field.  Its purpose is to disambiguate
   the 'Interface ID' field from other routers in the domain.

   IS-IS supports two Router-ID formats:

   o  (TLV 134, 32-Bit format) [RFC5305]

   o  (TLV 140, 128-Bit format) [RFC6119]

   The actual Router-ID format gets derived from the 'Length' field.

   o  For 32-Bit Router-ID width the subTLV length is set to 8 octets.

   o  For 128-Bit Router-ID width the subTLV length is set to 20 octets.

   The 'Interface ID' is the identifier assigned to the link by the
   router specified by the router ID.

   The 'L' bit in the Flags is a one-bit attribute.  If the L bit is
   set, then the value of the attribute is 'loose.'  Otherwise, the
   value of the attribute is 'strict.'

   The 'Router-ID' field contains the router ID of the router which has
   assigned the 'Interface ID' field.  Its purpose is to disambiguate
   the 'Interface ID' field from other routers in the domain.

   IS-IS supports two Router-ID formats:

   o  (TLV 134, 32-Bit format) [RFC5305]

   o  (TLV 140, 128-Bit format) [RFC6119]

   The actual Router-ID format gets derived from the 'Length' field.

   o  For 32-Bit Router-ID width the subTLV length is set to 8 octets.

   o  For 128-Bit Router-ID width the subTLV length is set to 20 octets.

   The 'Interface ID' is the identifier assigned to the link by the
   router specified by the router ID.

   The 'L' bit in the Flags is a one-bit attribute.  If the L bit is
   set, then the value of the attribute is 'loose.'  Otherwise, the
   value of the attribute is 'strict.'

2.4.12.  Prefix ERO and Prefix Backup ERO subTLV path semantics

   All 'ERO' and 'Backup ERO' information represents an ordered set
   which describes the segments of a path.  The last ERO subTLV
   describes the segment closest to the egress point of the path.
   Contrary the first ERO subTLV describes the first segment of a path.
   If a router extends or stitches a label switched path it MUST prepend
   the new segments path information to the ERO list.  The same ordering
   applies for the Backup ERO labels.  An implementation SHOULD first
   encode all primary path EROs followed by the bypass EROs.

3.  Router Capabilities

3.1.  SR-Capabilities Sub-TLV

   Segment Routing requires each router to advertise its SR data-plane
   capability and the range of SID/Label values it uses for Segment
   Routing.  Data-plane capabilities and SID/Label ranges are advertised
   using the newly defined SR-Capabilities Sub-TLV inserted into the
   IS-IS Router Capability TLV-242 that is defined in [RFC4971].

   The Router Capability TLV specifies flags that control its
   advertisement.  The SR Capabilities Sub-TLV MUST be propagated
   throughout the level and need not to be advertised across level
   boundaries.  Therefore Router Capability TLV distribution flags MUST
   be set accordingly, i.e.: the S flag MUST be unset.

   The SR Capabilities Sub-TLV is optional, MAY appear multiple times
   inside the Router Capability TLV and has following format:

    0                   1                   2                   3
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |   Type        |     Length    |    Flags      |    Range      |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   | Range (cont.) |      SID/Label Sub-TLV (variable size)        |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   where:

      Type: TBA.

      Length: variable.

      Flags: 1 octet of flags.  The following are defined:

      0
      0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |I|V|           |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

      where:

         I-Flag: IPv4 flag.  If set, then the router is capable of
         outgoing IPv4 encapsulation on all interfaces.

Previdi, et al.          Expires April 24, 2014                [Page 20]
Internet-Draft    IS-IS Extensions for Segment Routing      October 2013

         V-Flag: IPv6 flag.  If set, then the router is capable of
         outgoing IPv6 encapsulation on all interfaces.

      Range: 2 octets value defining the number of values of the range
      from the starting value defined in the SID/Label Sub-TLV.

      SID/Label Sub-TLV: SID/Label value as defined in Section 2.1.

   If multiple occurrence of the SR-Capabilities Sub-TLV are advertised
   by the same router, only the Flags in the first occurrence of the
   Sub-TLV are to be taken into account.

3.2.  SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV

   The router may use various algorithms when calculating reachability
   to other nodes or to prefixes attached to these nodes.  Examples of
   these algorithms are metric based Shortest Path First (SPF), various
   sorts of Constrained SPF, etc.  The SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV allows the
   router to advertise the algorithms that the router is currently
   using.  The following value has been defined:

      0: Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm based on link metric.

   The SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV is inserted into the IS-IS Router Capability
   TLV-242 that is defined in [RFC4971].

   The Router Capability TLV specifies flags that control its
   advertisement.  The SR-Algorithm MUST be propagated throughout the
   level and need not to be advertised across level boundaries.
   Therefore Router Capability TLV distribution flags MUST be set
   accordingly, i.e.: the S flag MUST be unset.

   The SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV is optional, it MAY only appear a single
   time inside the Router Capability TLV.  If the SID-Label Capability
   Sub-TLV is advertised then the SR-Algorithm Sub-TLV MUST also be
   advertised.

   It has following format:

     0                   1                   2                   3
     0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
    |   Type        |     Length    |
    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
    | Algorithm 1   |  Algorithm 2  | Algorithm ... |  Algorithm n  |
