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 or into a service plane. This document defines a new redirect-to-INDIRECTION\_ID (32-bit or 128-bit) flow-spec action to provide advanced redirection capabilities. When activated, the flowspec Indirection-id is used to identify the next-hop redirect information within a router locallized Indirection-id table. This allows a flowspec controller to signal redirection towards a next-hop IP address, a shortest path tunnel, a traffic engineered tunnel or a next-next-hop engineered tunnel interface.}, }
