1. Introduction

   In 5G Edge Computing (EC) environment, it is common for an
   application that needs low latency to be instantiated on
   multiple servers close in proximity to UEs (User
   Equipment). Those applications instances can be behind one
   or multiple application-layer load balancers. When they
   have relatively short flows that can go to any instance,
   having the cluster of them at different locations share the
   same IP address can minimize the impact to DNS and achieve
   optimal forwarding that leverages network conditions. E.g.,
   Kubernetes for data center networking uses one single
   Virtual IP address for a cluster of instances of
   microservices so that the network can forward via multiple
   paths towards one single destination.

   This draft describes using additional site costs to
   influence the shortest path computation for a specific set
   of prefixes. The site costs can be a group of metrics, or
   one aggregated cost computed based on a configured
   algorithm. As there are a small number of egress routers
   having those prefixes (or destinations) that need to
   incorporate site costs in SPF computation, Flexible

Internet-Draft     LSR Extension for 5G EC Service

   Algorithms [LSR-FlexAlgo] is used to indicate the need for
   the site costs to be considered for the specific
   topologies. Flexible algorithms provide mechanisms for
   topologies to use different IGP path algorithms.

 1.1. Unbalanced Distribution due to UE Mobility

   UEs' frequent moving from one 5G site to another can make
   it difficult to plan where the App Servers should be
   hosted. When a group of App servers at one location, which
   can be behind an application-layer load balancer, are
   heavily utilized, the instances for the same application at
   another location can be under-utilized. The difference in
   the routing distance to reach multiple sites where the
   application instances are instantiated might be relatively
   small in 5G LDN environment. The site capacity and
   preferences can be more significant than the routing
   distance from the application's latency and performance
   perspective.

   Since the condition can change in days or weeks, it is
   difficult for the application controller to anticipate the
   moving and adjusting relocation of application instances.

 1.2. ANYCAST in 5G EC Environment

   ANYCAST is assigning the same IP address for multiple
   instances at different locations. Using ANYCAST can
   eliminate the single point of failure and bottleneck at
   load balancers or DNS. Another benefit is removing the
   dependency on how UEs resolve IP addresses for their
   applications. Some UEs (or clients) might use stale cached
   IP addresses for an extended period.

   But having the same IP address at multiple locations of the
   5G Edge Computing environment can be problematic because
   all those locations can be close in proximity. There might
   be a tiny difference in the routing distance to reach an
   application instance attached to a different edge router.

 1.3. Scope of the Document

   The draft is for scenarios where applications or micro
   services are instantiated at multiple locations behind one
   or multiple application layer load balancers. They have
   relative short flows that can go to any instances.



Dunbar, et al.          Expires July 25, 2022         [Page 4]


Internet-Draft     LSR Extension for 5G EC Service

   Under this scenario, multiple instances for the same type
   of services can be assigned with the same IP address, so
   that network condition can be utilized to achieve optimal
   forwarding.

   From IP network perspective, application layer load
   balancers and app servers all appear as IP addresses.
   Throughout this document, the term "app server" can
   represent the load balancer in front of a cluster of app
   server instances, app server instances, or app server.

   Note: for the ease of description, the EC (Edge Computing)
   server, Application server, App server are used
   interchangeably throughout this document.

2. Conventions used in this document

   A-ER:       Egress Edge Router to an Application Server,
               [A-ER] is used to describe the last router that
               the Application Server is attached. For 5G EC
               environment, the A-ER can be the gateway router
               to a (mini) Edge Computing Data Center.

   Application Server: An application server is a physical or
               virtual server that hosts the software system
               for the application.

   Application Server Location: Represent a cluster of servers
               at one location serving the same Application.
               One application may have a Layer 7 Load
               balancer, whose address(es) are reachable from
               an external IP network, in front of a set of
               application servers. From IP network
               perspective, this whole group of servers is
               considered as the Application server at the
               location.

   Edge Application Server: used interchangeably with
               Application Server throughout this document.

   here.

3. Solution Overview

   The proposed solution is for the egress edge router (A-ER)
   with the application instances directly attached to

     - advertise the aggregated site cost via IP prefix
        reachability TLV associated with the (anycast) prefix.
        [note: the aggregated cost in this version of the
        draft is one value. Some deployment scenarios could
        have a set of values as the site cost.]


Dunbar, et al.          Expires July 25, 2022         [Page 6]


Internet-Draft     LSR Extension for 5G EC Service

     - use a Flag in the Flexible Algorithm TLV to indicate
        that the aggregated site cost needs to influence the
        SPF to reach the Prefix.

   The aggregated site cost associated with a prefix (i.e.,
   ANYCAST prefix) is computed based on the Capacity Index,
   the Preference Index, and other constraints by a consistent
   algorithm across all A-ERs. The capacity and preference
   indexes are configured to the egress routers to which the
   prefix is attached.

   The solution assumes that the 5G EC controller or
   management system is aware of the ANYCAST addresses that
   need optimized forwarding. Only the addresses that match
   with the ACLs configured by the 5G EC controller will have
   their aggregated site cost advertised.



4. New Flags added to FAD Flags Sub-TLV

   A New flag (P-flag) is added to indicate that the
   aggregated site cost needs to be considered for the SPF to
   the prefix for a specific topology. One specific topology
   can consist of a subset of routers within one single IGP
   domain.

   Flags:

     0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7...
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+...
     |M|P| | ...
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+...


   The detailed algorithm of integrating the routing distance
   and the aggregated site cost for the shortest path is out
   of the scope of this document.

5. Minimum Interval for Aggregated Site Cost Advertisement

   The aggregated site cost associated with a prefix (e.g., an
   ANYCAST prefix) can be a value or a set of values
   configured on the router to which the prefix is attached.
   The aggregated site cost can be computed based on an
   algorithm configured on router for specific prefixes. The


Dunbar, et al.          Expires July 25, 2022         [Page 7]


Internet-Draft     LSR Extension for 5G EC Service

   detailed algorithm of computing the aggregated site cost is
   out of the scope of document.

   As the cost change can impact the path computation, there
   must be a Minimum Interval for Metrics Change Advertisement
   which is configured on the routers to avoid route
   oscillations. Default is 30s.

   The aggregated site cost change rate is comparable with the
   rate of adding or removing application instances at
   locations to adapt to the workload distribution changes.
   The rate of change could be in days or weeks. On rare
   occasions, there might need rate changes in hours.

6. Aggregate Site Cost Advertisement in OSPF

     - IPv4: OSPFv2
        A new Aggregated Cost Sub-TLV needs to be added to
        OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV [RFC7684]

     - IPv6: OSPFv3
        A new sub-TLV can be appended to the E-Intra-Area-
        Prefix-LSA, E-Inter-Area-Prefix-LSA, E-AS-External-
        LSA, and E-Type-7-LSA [RFC8362] to carry the
        Aggregated Cost.

7. "Site-Cost" Advertisement in IS-IS

   Aggregated Cost can be appended as subTLV to the Extended
   IP Reachability TLV 135 for IPv4 [RFC5305] and 236 for IPv6
   [RFC5308].

   For Multi-Topology with non-zero IDs, the Aggregated Cost
   SubTLV can be carried by Multi-topology TLV 235 for IPv4
   and 237 for IPv6 [RFC5120].

8. Alternative method for Distributing Aggregated Cost

   Section 6 and Section 7 demonstrate different ways for
   OSPFv2, OSPFv3, and ISIS to propagate the aggregated cost.
   It would be better if the aggregated cost could be
   advertised the same way, regardless of OSPFv2, OSPFv3, or
   ISIS.

   Draft [draft-wang-lsr-stub-link-attributes] introduces the
   Stub-Link TLV for OSPFv2/v3 and ISIS protocol respectively.
   Considering the interfaces on an edge router that connects
   to the EC servers are normally configured as passive
   interfaces, these IP-layer App-metrics can also be
   advertised as the attributes of the passive/stub link. The
   associated prefixes can then be advertised in the "Stub-
   Link TLV" that is defined in [draft-wang-lsr-stub-link-
   attributes]. All the associated prefixes share the same
   characteristic of the link. Other link related sub-TLVs
   defined in [RFC8920] can also be attached and applied to
   the calculation of path to the associated prefixes."

   The aggregated site cost metric can also be carried by the
   Stub-Link TLV defined in [draft-wang-lsr-stub-link-
   attributes]

13. Appendix A:5G Edge Computing Background

   The network connecting the 5G EC servers with the 5G Base
   stations consists of a small number of dedicated routers
   that form the 5G Local Data Network (LDN) to enhance the
   performance of the EC services.

   When a User Equipment (UE) initiates application packets
   using the destination address from a DNS reply or its
   cache, the packets from the UE are carried in a PDU session
   through 5G Core [5GC] to the 5G UPF-PSA (User Plan Function
   - PDU Session Anchor). The UPF-PSA decapsulates the 5G GTP
   outer header, performs NAT sometimes, before handing the
   packets from the UEs to the adjacent router, also known as
   the ingress router to the EC LDN, which is responsible for
   forwarding the packets to the intended destinations.

   When the UE moves out of coverage of its current gNB (next-
   generation Node B) (gNB1), the handover procedure is
   initiated, which includes the 5G SMF (Session Management
   Function) selecting a new UPF-PSA [3GPP TS 23.501 and TS
   23.502]. When the handover process is complete, the IP
   point of attachment is to the new UPF-PSA. The UE's IP
   address stays the same unless moving to different operator
   domain. 5GC may maintain a path from the old UPF to the new
   UPF for a short time for SSC [Session and Service
   Continuity] mode 3 to make the handover process more
   seamless.

 13.1. Metrics to change traffic flow patterns

   When UEs pattern changes, the Application controller can
   instantiate more instances at certain locations to
   accommodate higher demand.

   However, network layer can offer a simpler solution. By
   adjusting the site cost for the prefix at specific egress
   routers, IGP distribution of those site cost plus the flex
   algorithm can increase (or decrease) flows for the specific
   prefixes towards the certain locations.

     - Capacity Index:
       a numeric number, configured on all A-ERs in the
       domain consistently, is used to represent the capacity
       of an EC server attached to an A-ER. The IP addresses
       exposed to the A-ER can be the App Layer Load
       balancers that have many instances attached.  At other
       sites, the IP address exposed is the server itself.
     - Site preference index:
       Is used to describe some sites are more preferred than
       others. For example, a site with less leasing cost has
       a higher preference value. Note: the preference value
       is configured on all A-ERs in the domain consistently
       by the Domain Controller.


 13.2. Reason for using IGP Based Solution

    IGP provides stable underlay reachability within the IGP
    coverage area (including hierarchy). Even through IGP has
    been extended to carry underlay TE or SR information, IGP
    has been within the core transport. IGP traditionally
    doesn't carry any service information.
    In the networks where traditional IGP has been deployed,
    different addresses are for different end points. But for
    the 5G edge computing environment, one entity can have
    multiple addresses and one prefix "A" can be attached to
    multiple routers. E.g., one entity EAS-1 can have 3
    addresses (E1/E2/E3). By adjusting the site cost for E1 on
    the E1 attached router (R1) for the Topology-Red, traffic
    destined towards E1 from the routers in the Topology-Red
    can be led to (or away from) to the R1. While the traffic
    destined towards E2/E3 stay the same.
    Here are some benefits of using IGP to propagate the IP
    Layer App-Metrics:
    - Intermediate routers can utilize the aggregated cost to
      reach the same prefix attached to different egress edge
      nodes, especially:
        - The path to the optimal egress edge node can be
           more accurate or shorter.

        - Convergence is shorter when there is any failure
           along the way towards the optimal egress for the
           prefix.
        - When there is any failure at the intended instance
           of the prefix, all the packets in transit can be
           optimally forwarded to another instance of the same
           prefix attached to a different egress router.
    - Doesn't need the ingress nodes to establish tunnels with
      egress edge nodes.

    There are limitations of using IGP too, such as:

    - The IGP approach might not suit well to 5G EC LDN
      operated by multiple ISPs.
      For LDN operated by multiple ISPs, BGP should be used.
      [BGP-5G-AppMetaData] describes the BGP UPDATE message to
      propagate IP Layer App-Metrics crossing multiple ISPs.

 13.3. Flow Affinity to an ANYCAST server

   When multiple servers with the same IP address (ANYCAST)
   are attached to different A-ERs, Flow Affinity means
   routers sending the packets of the same flow to the same A-
   ER even if the cost towards the A-ER is no longer optimal.

   Many commercial routers support some forms of flow affinity
   to ensure packets belonging to one flow be forwarded along
   the same path.

   Editor's note: for IPv6 traffic, Flow Affinity can be
   achieved by routers forwarding the packets with the same
   Flow Label extracted from the IPv6 Header along the same
   path.
