1. Introduction
"Bit Index Explicit Replication Traffic Engineering" (BIER-TE)
[RFC9262] describes per-packet stateless strict and loose path
steered replication and forwarding for "Bit Index Explicit
Replication" (BIER, [RFC8279]) packets. It is called BIER Tree
Engineering (BIER-TE) and is intended to be used as the path steering
mechanism for Traffic Engineering with BIER. RBS
[I-D.eckert-bier-rbs] introduces a compact data-structure
representation of multicast trees called "Recursive Bitstring
Structure" (RBS) and its use for (stateless) forwarding of packets
that include this structure in their header.
Zhang, et al. Expires 14 September 2023 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft Abbreviated Title March 2023
BIER-TE and RBS both use a "bit positions" (BP) for the
representation of link or adjacency. [I-D.ietf-bier-te-isis],
[I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospf], and [I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospfv3] describe IS-
IS, OSPF, OSPFv3 extensions respectively for distributing
BitPositions configured on the links in BIER-TE domain.
As described in section 2.4 in [RFC9262] and section 5 in
[I-D.eckert-bier-rbs], BIER-TE/RBS inherits the encapsulation
supporting from BIER unchanged. The encapsulation defined in
[RFC8296], which specifies a common header format for both MPLS and
non-MPLS networks, though the first 20-bits (referred to as BIFT-id)
of the header is an "MPLS Label" in case of MPLS networks and is a
local 20-bit opaque value in case of non-MPLS networks.
As described in section 4.3 of [RFC9262] and section 5 in
[I-D.eckert-bier-rbs], it is necessary to distinguish the BIER and
BIER-TE/RBS packet and forwarding. like [RFC8401], [RFC8444],
[I-D.ietf-bier-ospfv3-extensions], and
[I-D.ietf-bier-lsr-non-mpls-extensions], the MPLS and non-MPLS
encapsulation needs to be advertised for BIER-TE/RBS packet
encapsulation.
The advertisement can follow the existed BIER-TE BP advertisement,
but it does not work well if there are many BIER-TE links need to be
advertised. Too many octets in the advertisement will be consumed
even if the same BIFT-id is used for different links.
This document describes the IS-IS and OSPF protocol extensions that
are required for BIER-TE/RBS with MPLS and non-MPLS encapsulation
associated with prefix distributing.
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
2. Terminology
This document does not introduce more terminologies than [RFC8279],
[RFC8296], [RFC8401], [RFC9262], [I-D.ietf-bier-te-isis],
[I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospf], [I-D.ietf-bier-te-ospfv3] and

3. Flooding of the BIER-TE/RBS Encapsulation Information in IS-IS
The BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation Sub-sub-TLV and BIER-TE non-MPLS
Encapsulation Sub-sub-TLV are advertised with BIER-Info Sub-TLV,
which is defined in section 6.1 in [RFC8401].
As described in section 4.3 in [RFC9262] and section 5 in
[I-D.eckert-bier-rbs], the label for MPLS encapsulation or the BIFT-
ID for non-MPLS encapsulation is allocatd per SD:BSL.
The flooding scope is the same with section 5 in [RFC8401].

3.2.1. BIER-TE IPv6 Encapsulation sub-sub-sub-tlv
As described in section 4 of [I-D.ietf-bier-bierin6], which describes
how the existing BIER encapsulation specified in [RFC8296] works in a
non-MPLS IPv6 network, a node that requires IPv6 encapsulation MUST
advertise the BIER-TE IPv6 encapsulation sub-sub-sub-TLV, which
follows the associated Non-MPLS Encapsulation, according to local
configuration or policy in the BIER domain to request other BFRs to
always use IPv6 encapsulation.

4. Flooding of the BIER-TE/RBS Encapsulation Information in OSPF
Same with IS-IS, the BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation Sub-TLV and BIER-TE
non-MPLS Encapsulation Sub-TLV are Sub-TLVs of BIER Sub-TLV, which is
defined in section 2.1 in [RFC8444].
It is similar for OSPFv3, the BIER-TE MPLS Encapsulation Sub-TLV and
BIER-TE non-MPLS Encapsulation Sub-TLV are Sub-TLVs of BIER Sub-TLV,
which is defined in section 2.1 in [I-D.ietf-bier-ospfv3-extensions].
As described in section 4.3 in [RFC9262] and section 5 in
[I-D.eckert-bier-rbs], the label for MPLS encapsulation or the BIFT-
ID for non-MPLS encapsulation is allocatd per SD:BSL.
The format defined below works for both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. The
flooding scope for OSPFv2 is the same with section 2.3 in [RFC8444].
The flooding scope for OSPFv3 is the same with section 2.2 in
[I-D.ietf-bier-ospfv3-extensions].
