               draft-xiong-pce-detnet-bounded-latency-02

Abstract

   In certain networks, such as Deterministic Networking (DetNet), it is
   required to consider the bounded latency for path selection.  This
   document describes the extensions to PCEP to carry deterministic
   latency constraints and distribute deterministic paths for end-to-end
   path computation in DetNet service.

1.  Introduction

   [RFC5440] describes the Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP)
   which is used between a Path Computation Element (PCE) and a Path
   Computation Client (PCC) (or other PCE) to enable computation of
   Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) for Traffic Engineering Label
   Switched Path (TE LSP).  PCEP Extensions for the Stateful PCE Model
   [RFC8231] describes a set of extensions to PCEP to enable active
   control of MPLS-TE and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) tunnels.  As depicted
   in [RFC4655], a PCE MUST be able to compute the path of a TE LSP by
   operating on the TED and considering bandwidth and other constraints
   applicable to the TE LSP service request.  The constraint parameters
   are provided such as metric, bandwidth, delay, affinity, etc.
   However these parameters can't meet the DetNet requirements.

   According to [RFC8655], Deterministic Networking (DetNet) operates at
   the IP layer and delivers service which provides extremely low data
   loss rates and bounded latency within a network domain.  The bounded

   latency indicates the minimum and maximum end-to-end latency from
   source to destination and bounded jitter (packet delay variation).
   [I-D.xiong-detnet-large-scale-enhancements] has proposed the packet
   treatment which should support new functions such as queuing
   mechanisms to ensure the deterministic latency.  A common data fields
   can be defined as per [I-D.xiong-detnet-data-fields-edp] and a
   Deterministic Latency Action (DLA) option has been proposed to carry
   queuing-based metadata.  The computing method of end-to-end delay
   bounds is defined in [RFC9320].  It is the sum of the 6 delays in
   DetNet bounded latency model.  And these delays should be measured
   and collected by IGP, but the related mechanisms are out of this
   document.  The end-to-end delay bounds can also be computed as the
   sum of non queuing delay bound and queuing delay bound along the
   path.  The upper bounds of non queuing delay are constant and depend
   on the specific network and the value of queuing delay bound depends
   on the queuing mechanisms deployed along the path.

   As per [I-D.ietf-detnet-controller-plane-framework], explicit path
   should be calculated and established in control plane to guarantee
   the deterministic transimission.  When the PCE is deployed, the path
   computation should be applicable for DetNet networks.  It is required
   that bounded latency including minimum and maximum end-to-end latency
   and bounded delay variation are considered during the deterministic
   path selection for PCE.  The bounded latency constriants should be
   extended for PCEP.  Moreover, the information along the deterministic
   path should be provided to the PCC after the path conputation such as
   queuing parameters.

   This document describes the extensions to PCEP to carry deterministic
   latency constraints and distribute deterministic paths for end-to-end
   path computation in DetNet service.

Internet-Draft  PCEP Extension for DetNet Bounded Latenc      March 2023

3.1.  METRIC Object

   The METRIC object is defined in Section 7.8 of [RFC5440], comprising
   metric-value and metric-type (T field), and a flags field, comprising
   a number of bit flags (B bit and C bit).  This document defines two
   types for the METRIC object.

3.1.1.  End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric

   [RFC8233] has proposed the Path Delay metric type of the METRIC
   object to represent the sum of the Link Delay metric of all links
   along a P2P path.  This document proposes the End-to-End Bounded
   Delay metric in PCEP to represent the sum of Output delay, Link
   delay, Frame preemption delay, Processing delay, Regulation delay and
   Queuing delay as defined in [RFC9320] along a deterministic path.  Or
   the End-to-End Bounded Delay metric can be encoded as the sum of non
   queuing delay bound and queuing delay bound along the deterministic
   path.  The extensions for End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric are as
   following shown:

   *  T=TBD1: End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric.

   *  The value of End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric is the encoding in
      units of microseconds with 32 bits.

   *  The B bit MUST be set to suggest a maximum bound for the end-to-
      end delay of deterministic path.  The end-to-end delay must be
      less than or equal to the value.

   A PCC MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Latency metric in a Path
   Computation Request (PCReq) message to request a deterministic path
   meeting the end-to-end latency requirement.  A PCE MAY use the End-
   to-End Bounded Latency metric in a Path Computation Reply (PCRep)
   message along with a NO-PATH object in the case where the PCE cannot
   compute a path meeting this constraint.  A PCE can also use this
   metric to send the computed end-to-end bounded latency to the PCC.

3.1.2.  End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric

   [RFC8233] has proposed the Path Delay Variation metric type of the
   METRIC object to represent the sum of the Link Delay Variation metric
   of all links along the path.  This document proposes the End-to-End
   Bounded Jitter metric in PCEP to represent the difference between the
   end-to-end upper bounded latecny and the end-to-end lower bounded
   latecny along a deterministic path.  The extensions for End-to-End
   Bounded Jitter Metric are as following shown:

   *  T=TBD2: End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric.

Xiong, et al.           Expires 27 September 2023               [Page 4]
Internet-Draft  PCEP Extension for DetNet Bounded Latenc      March 2023

   *  The value of End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric is the encoding in
      units of microseconds with 32 bits.

   *  The B bit MUST be set to suggest a maximum bound for the end-to-
      end jitter of deterministic path.  The end-to-end jitter must be
      less than or equal to the value.

   A PCC MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Jitter metric in a PCReq message
   to request a deterministic path meeting the end-to-end delay
   variation requirement.  A PCE MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Jitter
   metric in a PCRep message along with a NO-PATH object in the case
   where the PCE cannot compute a path meeting this constraint.  A PCE
   can also use this metric to send the computed end-to-end bounded
   Jitter to the PCC.

3.2.  LSP Object

   The LSP Object is defined in Section 7.3 of [RFC8231].  This document
   defiend a new flag (D-flag) to present the deterministic path for the
   LSP-EXTENDED-FLAG TLV carried in LSP Object as defined in [RFC9357].

   D (Request for Deterministic Path) : If the bit is set to 1, it
   indicates that the PCC requests PCE to compute the deterministic
   path.  A PCE would also set this bit to 1 to indicate that the
   deterministic path is included by PCE and encoded in the PCRep, PCUpd
   or PCInitiate message.

3.3.  Deterministic Path Object

   As defined in [RFC9320], the end-to-end delay bounds can be presented
   as the sum of non queuing delay bound and queuing delay bound along
   the path.  The upper bounds of non queuing delay are constant and
   depend on the specific network, but the value of queuing delay bound
   depends on the queuing mechanisms deployed along the deterministic
   path.  [I-D.xiong-detnet-data-fields-edp] and a Deterministic Latency
   Action (DLA) option has been proposed to carry the queuing
   information.  So to meet the requirements of the end-to-end delay,
   the PCE should select a path with a specific queuing mechanism and
   configure the related parameters to the PCC.  And the PCC may insert
   the queuing-based information into the pakects headers.  This
   document defines Deterministic Path Object (DPO) to distribute the
   deterministic latency Action Information through DetNet networks.

   DPO Object-Class is TBD3.

   DPO Object-Type is TBD4.

   The format of the DPO object body is as follows:

3.3.1.  Deadline TLV

   Deadline TLV is optional for the Deterministic Path Object.  The
   deadline-based queuing mechanism has been proposed in
   [I-D.stein-srtsn] and [I-D.peng-detnet-deadline-based-forwarding].
   The deadlines along the path should be computed at PCE and configured
   to the PCC, and then inserted into the packet headers.  When the
   Queuing Algorithm Type is set to indicate the deadline-based queuing
   mechanisms, the Deadline TLV should be used to carry the deadline
   parameters.

3.3.2.  Cycle TLV

   Cycle TLV is optional for the Deterministic Path Object.  The cyclic-
   based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [IEEE802.1Qch] and
   improved in [I-D.dang-queuing-with-multiple-cyclic-buffers].  The
   clycle along the path should be computed at PCE and configured to the
   PCC, and then inserted into the packet headers.  When the Queuing
   Algorithm Type is set to indicate the cycle-based queuing mechanisms,
   the Cycle TLV should be used to carry the cycle parameters.

3.3.3.  Timeslot TLV

   Timeslot TLV is optional for the Deterministic Path Object.  The
   timeslot-based queuing mechanism has been proposed in
   [I-D.peng-detnet-packet-timeslot-mechanism].  The timeslot ID along
   the path should be computed at PCE and configured to the PCC, and
   then inserted into the packet headers.  When the Queuing Algorithm
   Type is set to indicate the Timeslot-based queuing mechanisms, the
   Timeslot TLV should be used to carry the parameters.
