1. Introduction
BGP Link-State RFC7752 [RFC7752] defines mechanisms to advertise information about the underlying IGP in BGP NLRI to an external entity (e.g. a controller). New BGP-LS TLVs are required in order to faciliate IS-IS Flood Reflection [IS-IS-FR] extensions.¶
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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119].¶
2. BGP-LS Extensions for IS-IS Flood Reflectors
This document defines the following BGP-LS TLV code point value in accordance with RFC7752 rules:¶
TLV Code Point | Description | IS-IS TLV |
---|---|---|
TBD1 | Flood Reflection TLV | TBD1 (161) [IS-IS-FR] |
TLV formats are described in detail in subsequent subsections.¶
3. BGP-LS TLVs for IS-IS Flood Reflection
This TLV advertises Flood Reflector details. The semantics and values of the fields in the TLV are described in [IS-IS-FR].¶
where:¶
4. IANA Considerations
This section requests entries from the "BGP-LS Node Descriptor, Link Descriptor, Prefix Descriptor, and Attribute TLVs" registry for the following TLVs:¶
4.1. Requested TLV Entries
TLV Code Point | Description |
---|---|
TBD1 | Flood Reflection TLV |
5. Security Considerations
Procedures and protocol extensions defined in this document do not affect the BGP security model. See the "Security Considerations" section of [RFC4271] for a discussion of BGP security. Also, refer to [RFC4272] and [RFC6952] for analyses of BGP security issues. Security considerations for acquiring and distributing BGP-LS information are discussed in [RFC7752].¶
The TLVs introduced in this document are used to propagate IS-IS Flood Reflection TLVs defined in [IS-IS-FR]. These TLVs represent IS-IS Flood Reflector state and are therefore assumed to support any/all of the required security and authentication mechanisms as described in [IS-IS-FR] to prevent any security issues when propagating the TLVs into BGP-LS.¶
