This has many possible applications but the primary one for many network operators is the distribution of traffic filtering actions for DDoS mitigation. The flow-spec standard RFC5575 {[}2{]} defines a redirect-to-VRF action for policy-based forwarding but this mechanism is not always sufficient, particular if the redirected traffic needs to be steered into an engineered path. This document defines a new redirect-to-Path-id (32-bit or 128-bit) flow-spec action to provide advanced redirection capabilities. When activated, the flowspec signalled Path-id is used to identify the next-hop redirect information within a localized to the router Path- id redirect table. The Path-id redirect table is a table providing a list of Path-id's and router local redirect information. This allows a Flowspec signalled redirect towards a next-hop IP address, next-hop local interface or next-hop (traffic engineered) tunnel interface.}, }
