INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 1. Introduction Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Flow Specification [RFC5575bis] (flowspec) is an extension to BGP that supports the dissemination of traffic flow specification rules and actions to be taken on packets in a specified flow. It leverages the BGP Control Plane to simplify the distribution of ACLs (Access Control Lists). Using the Flow Specification extension new filter rules can be injected to all BGP peers simultaneously without changing router configuration. A typical application is to automate the distribution of traffic filter lists to routers for DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) mitigation, access control, and similar applications. BGP Flow Specification [RFC5575bis] defines a BGP Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) format used to distribute traffic flow specification rules. The NLRI for (AFI=1, SAFI=133) specifies IPv4 unicast filtering. The NLRI for (AFI=1, SAFI=134) specifies IPv4 BGP/MPLS VPN filtering [RFC7432]. The Flow Specification match part defined in [RFC5575bis] only includes L3/L4 information like IPv4 source/destination prefix, protocol, ports, and the like, so traffic flows can only be filtered based on L3/L4 information. This has been extended by [FlowSpecV6] to cover IPv6 (AFI=2) L3/L4. Layer 2 Virtual Private Networks (L2VPNs) have been deployed in an increasing number of networks. Such networks also have requirements to deploy BGP Flow Specification to mitigate DDoS attack traffic. Within an L2VPN network, both IP and non-IP Ethernet traffic may exist. For IP traffic filtering, the VPN Flow Specification rules defined in [RFC5575bis] and/or [FlowSpecV6], which include match criteria and actions, can still be used. For non-IP Ethernet traffic filtering, Layer 2 related information like source/destination MAC and VLAN must be considered. There are different kinds of L2VPN networks like EVPN [RFC7432], BGP VPLS [RFC4761], LDP VPLS [RFC4762] and border gateway protocol (BGP) auto discovery [RFC6074]. Because the Flow Specification feature relies on the BGP protocol to distribute traffic filtering rules, it can only be incrementally deployed in those L2VPN networks where BGP has already been used for auto discovery and/or signaling purposes such as BGP-based VPLS [RFC4761], EVPN, and LDP-based VPLS [RFC4762] with BGP auto-discovery [RFC6074]. This document defines new flowspec component types and two new extended communities to support L2 and L2VPN flowspec applications. The flowspec rules can be enforced on all border routers or on some interface sets of the border routers. SAFI=133 in [RFC5575bis] and [FlowSpecV6] is extended for AFI=6 as specified in Section 2 to cover L2 traffic filtering information and in Section 3 SAFI=134 is extended for AFI=25 to cover the L2VPN environment.

INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 1.1 Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. The following acronyms and terms are used in this document: AFI - Address Family Identifier ACL - Access Control List DDoS - Distributed Denial of Service DEI - Drop Eligible Indicator EVPN - Ethernet VPN [RFC7432] flowspec - BGP Flow Specification L2 - Layer 2 L2VPN - Layer 2 VPN L3 - Layer 3 L3VPN - Layer 3 VPN NLRI - Network Layer Reachability Information PCP - Priority Code Point [802.1Q] SAFI - Subsequent Address Family Identifier TPID - Tag Protocol ID, typically a VLAN ID VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network VPLS - Virtual Private Line Service [RFC4762] VPN - Virtual Private Network W. Hao, et al [Page 4]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 2. Layer 2 Flow Specification Encoding [RFC5575bis] defines SAFI 133 and SAFI 134, with AFI=1, for "dissemination of IPv4 flow specification rules" and "dissemination of VPNv4 flow specification rules", respectively. [FlowSpecV6]] extends [RFC5575bis] to also allow AFI=2 thus making it applicable to both IPv4 and IPv6 applications. This document further extends SAFI=133 for AFI=6 and SAFI=134 for AFI=25 to make them applicable to L2 and L2VPN applications. This document also provides for the optional combination of L3 flow specifications with these L2 flow specifications. This section specifies the L2 flowspec for AFI=6/SAFI=133. To simplify assignments, a new registry is used for L2 flowspec. Since it is frequently desirable to also filter on L3/L4 fields, provision is made for their inclusion along with an indication of the L3 protocol involved (IPv4 or IPv6). The NLRI part of the MP_REACH_NLRI and MP_UNREACH_NLRI is encoded as a 1- or 2-octet total NLRI length field followed by several fields as described below. +-------------------------------+ | total-length (0xnn or 0xfnnn) | 2 or 3 octets +-------------------------------+ | L3-AFI | 2 octets +-------------------------------+ | L2-length (0xnn or 0xfnnn) | 2 or 3 octets +-------------------------------+ | NLRI-value | variable +-------------------------------+ Figure 1: Flow Specification NLRI for L2 The fields show in Figure 1 are further specified below: total-length: The length of the subsequent fields (L3 AFI, L2-length, and NRLI-value) encoded as provided in Section 4.1 of [RFC5575bis]. If this field is less than 4, which is the minimum valid value, then the NLRI is malformed in which case a NOTIFICATION message is sent and the BGP connection closed as provided in Section 6.3 of [RFC4271]. L3-AFI: If no L3/L4 filtering is desired, this two octet field MUST be zero which is a reserved AFI value. Otherwise L3-AFI indicates the L3 protocol involved by giving its AFI (0x0001 for IPv4 or 0x0002 for IPv6). If the receiver does not understand the value of the L3-AFI field, the MP_REACH or MP_UNREACH attribute is ignored. W. Hao, et al [Page 5]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec L2-length: The length of the L2 components at the beginning of the NLRI-value field encoded as provided in Section 4.1 of [RFC5575bis]. If the value of this field indicates that the L2 components extend beyond the total-length, the NLRI is malformed in which case a NOTIFICATION message is sent and the BGP connection closed as provided in Section 6.3 of [RFC4271]. N2-length MAY be zero although, in that case, it would have been more efficient to encode the attribute as an L3 Flow spec unless it is desired to apply an L2 action (see Section 4). A null L2 flowspec always matches. NLRI-value: This consists of the L2 flowspec, of length L2-length, followed by an optionally present L3 flowspec. The result can be treated in most ways as a single flowspec, matching the intersection (AND) of all the components except that the components in the initial L2 region are interpreted as L2 components and the remainder as L3 components per the L3-AFI field. This is necessary because there are different registries for the L2, L3 IPv4, and L3 IPv6 component types. If the L3 flowspec is null (length zero), it always matches. 2.1 L2 Component Types The L2 flowspec portion of the NLRI-value consists of flowspec components as in [RFC5575bis] but using L2 components and types as specified below. All components start with a type octet followed by a length octet followed by any additional information needed. The length octet give the length, in octets, of the information after the length octet. This structure applies to all new components to be defined in the L2 Flow-spec Component Registry (see Section 6) and to all existing components except Types 2 and 3 where the length is in bits. 2.1.1 Type 1 - Ethernet Type (EtherType) Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match the two- octet EtherType field. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. Values are encoded as 2-octet quantities. Ethernet II framing defines the two-octet Ethernet Type (EtherType) field in an Ethernet frame, preceded by destination and source MAC addresses, that identifies an upper layer protocol encapsulating the frame data. The match fails if LLC encoding is being used rather than EtherType encoding. W. Hao, et al [Page 6]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 2.1.2 Type 2 - Source MAC Encoding: <type (1 octet), MAC Prefix length (1 octet), MAC Prefix> Defines the source MAC Address prefix to match encoded as in BGP UPDATE messages [RFC4271]. Prefix length is in bits and the MAC Prefix is fill out with from 1 to 7 padding bits so that it is an integer number of octets. These padding bits are ignored for matching purposes. 2.1.3 Type 3 - Destination MAC Encoding: <type (1 octet), MAC Prefix length (1 octet), MAC Prefix> Defines the destination MAC Address to match encoded as in BGP UPDATE messages [RFC4271]. Prefix length is in bits and the MAC Prefix is fill out with from 1 to 7 padding bits so that it is an integer number of octets. These padding bits are ignored for matching purposes. 2.1.4 Type 4 - DSAP (Destination Service Access Point) Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match the 1-octet DSAP in the IEEE 802.2 LLC (Logical Link Control Header). Values are encoded as 1-octet quantities. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. The match fails if EtherType L2 header encoding is being used rather than LLC encoding. 2.1.5 Type 5 - SSAP (Source Service Access Point) Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match the 1-octet SSAP in the IEEE 802.2 LLC. Values are encoded as 1-octet quantities. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. The match fails if EtherType L2 header encoding is being used rather than LLC encoding. W. Hao, et al [Page 7]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 2.1.6 Type 6 - Control field in LLC Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match the 1-octet control field in the IEEE 802.2 LLC. Values are encoded as 1-octet quantities. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. The match fails if EtherType L2 header encoding is being used rather than LLC encoding. 2.1.7 Type 7 - SNAP Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match 5-octet SNAP (Sub-Network Access Protocol) field. Values are encoded as 5-octet quantities. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. The match fails if EtherType L2 header encoding is being used rather than LLC encoding. 2.1.8 Type 8 - VLAN ID Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match VLAN ID. Values are encoded as 2-octet quantities, where the four most significant bits are set to zero and ignored for matching and the 12 least significant bits contain the VLAN value. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. In the virtual local-area network (VLAN) stacking case, the VLAN ID is the outer VLAN ID. 2.1.9 Type 9 - VLAN PCP Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match 3-bit VLAN PCP (priority code point) fields [802.1Q]. Values are encoded using a single octet, where the five most significant bits are set to zero and ignored for matching and the three least significant bits contain the VLAN PCP value. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. W. Hao, et al [Page 8]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec In the virtual local-area network (VLAN) stacking case, the VLAN PCP is part of the outer VLAN tag. 2.1.10 Type 10 - Inner VLAN ID Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match the inner VLAN ID using for virtual local-area network (VLAN) stacking or Q-in- Q use. Values are encoded as 2-octet quantities, where the four most significant bits are set to zero and ignored for matching and the 12 least significant bits contain the VLAN value. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. In the single VLAN case, this component type MUST NOT be used. If it appears the match will fail. 2.1.11 Type 11 - Inner VLAN PCP Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), [op, value]+> Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match 3-bit inner VLAN PCP fields [802.1Q] using for virtual local-area network (VLAN) stacking or Q in Q use. Values are encoded using a single octet, where the five most significant bits are set to zero and ignored for matching and the three least significant bits contain the VLAN PCP value. op is encoded as specified in Section 4.2.1.1 of [RFC5575bis]. In the single VLAN case, this component type MUST NOT be used. If it appears the match will fail. 2.1.12 Type 12 - VLAN DEI Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), op (1 octet)> This type tests the DEI (Drop Eligible Indicator) bit in the VLAN tag. If op is zero, it matches if and only if the DEI bit is zero. If op is non-zero, it matches if and only if the DEI bit is one. In the virtual local-area network (VLAN) stacking case, the VLAN DEI is part of the outer VLAN tag. W. Hao, et al [Page 9]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 2.1.13 Type 13 - Inner VLAN DEI Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), op (1 octet)> This type tests the DEI bit in the inner VLAN tag. If op is zero, it matches if and only if the DEI bit is zero. If op is non-zero, it matches if and only if the DEI bit is one. In the single VLAN case, this component type MUST NOT be used. If it appears the match will fail. 2.1.14 Type 14 - Source MAC Special Bits Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), op (1 octet)> This type tests the bottom nibble of the top octet of the Source MAC address. The two low order bits of that nibble have long been the local bit (0x2) and the group addressed bit (0x1). However, recent changes in IEEE 802 have divided the local address space into 4 quadrants specified by the next two bits (0x4 and 0x8) [RFC7042bis]. This flowspec component permits testing, for example, that a MAC is group addressed or is a local address in a particular quadrant. The encoding is as given in Section 4.2.1.2 of [RFC5575bis]. 2.1.15 Type 15 - Destination MAC Special Bits Encoding: <type (1 octet), length (1 octet), op (1 octet)> As discussed in Section 2.1.14 but for the Destination MAC Address. 2.2 Order of Traffic Filtering Rules The existing rules in Section 5.1 of [RFC5575bis] and in [FlowSpecV6] for the ordering of traffic filtering are extended as follows: L2 flowspecs (AFI = 6, 25) take precedence over L3 flowspecs (AFI = 1, 2). Between two L2 flowspecs, precedence of the L2 portion is determined as specified in this section after this paragraph. If the L2 flowspec L2 portions are the same and the L3-AFI is nonzero, then the L3 portions are compared as specified in [RFC5575bis] or [FlowSpecV6] as appropriate. Note: if the L3-AFI fields are different between two L2 flowspecs, they will never match the same packet so it will not be necessary to prioritize two flowspecs with different L3-AFI values. W. Hao, et al [Page 10]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec The original definition for the order of traffic filtering rules can be reused for L2 with new consideration for the MAC Address offset. As long as the offsets are equal, the comparison is the same, retaining longest-prefix-match semantics. If the offsets are not equal, the lowest offset has precedence, as this flow matches the most significant bit. Pseudocode: flow_rule_L2_cmp (a, b) { comp1 = next_component(a); comp2 = next_component(b); while (comp1 || comp2) { // component_type returns infinity on end-of-list if (component_type(comp1) < component_type(comp2)) { return A_HAS_PRECEDENCE; } if (component_type(comp1) > component_type(comp2)) { return B_HAS_PRECEDENCE; } if (component_type(comp1) == MAC_DESTINATION || MAC_SOURCE) { common = MIN(MAC Address length (comp1), MAC Address length (comp2)); cmp = MAC Address compare(comp1, comp2, common); // not equal, lowest value has precedence // equal, longest match has precedence } else { common = MIN(component_length(comp1), component_length(comp2)); cmp = memcmp(data(comp1), data(comp2), common); // not equal, lowest value has precedence // equal, longest string has precedence } } return EQUAL; } W. Hao, et al [Page 11]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 3. L2VPN Flow Specification Encoding in BGP The NLRI format for AFI=25/SAFI=134 (L2VPN), as with the other VPN flowspec AFI/SAFI pairs, is the same as the non-VPN Flow-Spec but with the addition of a Route Distinguisher to identify the VPN to which the flowspec is to be applied. In addition, the IANA entry for SAFI 134 is slightly generalized as specified at the beginning of Section 6. The L2VPN NLRI format is as follows: +-------------------------------+ | total-length (0xnn or 0xfnnn) | 2 or 3 octets +-------------------------------+ | Route Distinguisher | 8 octets +-------------------------------+ | L3-AFI | 2 octets +-------------------------------+ | L2-length (0xnn or 0xfnnn) | 2 or 3 octets +-------------------------------+ | NLRI-value | variable +-------------------------------+ Figure 2: Flow Specification NLRI for L2VPN The fields in Figure 2, other than the Route Distinguisher, are encoded as specified in Section 2 except that the minimum value for total-length is 12. Flow specification rules received via this NLRI apply only to traffic that belongs to the VPN instance(s) into which it is imported. Flow rules are accepted as specified in Section 5. 3.1 Order of L2VPN Filtering Rules The order between L2VPN filtering rules is determined as specified in Section 2.2. Note that if the Route Distinguisher is different between two L2VPN filtering rules, they will never both match the same packet so they need not be prioritized. W. Hao, et al [Page 12]
INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 4. Ethernet Flow Specification Traffic Actions The default action for an L2 traffic filtering flowspec is to accept traffic that matches that particular rule. The following extended community values per [RFC5575bis] can be used to specify particular actions in an L2 VPN network: +--------+--------------------+----------------------------+ | type | extended community | encoding | +--------+--------------------+----------------------------+ | 0x8006 | traffic-rate | 2-octet as#, 4-octet float | | 0x8007 | traffic-action | bitmask | | 0x8008 | redirect | 6-octet Route Target | | 0x8009 | traffic-marking | DSCP value | +--------+--------------------+----------------------------+ Redirect: The action should be redefined to allow the traffic to be redirected to a MAC or IP VRF routing instance that lists the specified route-target in its import policy. Besides the above extended communities, this document also specifies the following BGP extended communities for Ethernet flows to extend [RFC5575bis]: +--------+------------------------+--------------------------+ | type | extended community | encoding | +--------+------------------------+--------------------------+ | TBD1 | VLAN-action | bitmask | | TBD2 | TPID-action | bitmask | +--------+------------------------+--------------------------+ 4.1 VLAN-action The VLAN-action extended community, as shown in the diagram below, consists of 6 octets that include action Flags, two VLAN IDs, and the associated PCP and DEI values. The action Flags fields are further divided into two parts which correspond to the first action and the second action respectively. Bit 0 to bit 7 give the first action while bit 8 to bit 15 give the second action. The bits of PO, PU, SW, RI and RO in each part represent the action of Pop, Push, Swap, Rewrite inner VLAN and Rewrite outer VLAN respectively. Through this method, more complicated actions also can be represented in a single VLAN-action extended community, such as SwapPop, PushSwap, etc. For example, SwapPop action is the sequence of two actions, the first action is Swap and the second action is Pop.

If the PO1 flag is one, it indicates the outmost VLAN should be removed. PU1: Push action. If PU1 is one, it indicates VLAN ID1 will be added, the associated PCP and DEI are PCP1 and DE1. SW1: Swap action. If the SW1 flag is one, it indicates the outer VLAN and inner VLAN should be swapped. PO2: Pop action. If the PO2 flag is one, it indicates the outmost VLAN should be removed. PU2: Push action. If PU2 is one, it indicates VLAN ID2 will be added, the associated PCP and DEI are PCP2 and DE2. SW2: Swap action. If the SW2 flag is one, it indicates the outer VLAN and inner VLAN should be swapped. RI1 and RI2: Rewrite inner VLAN action. If the RIx flag is one (where "x" is "1" or "2"), it indicates the inner VLAN should be replaced by a new VLAN where the new VLAN is VLAN IDx and the associated PCP and DEI are PCPx and DEx. If the VLAN IDx is 0, the action is to only modify the PCP and DEI value of the inner VLAN. RO1 and RO2: Rewrite outer VLAN action. If the ROx flag is one (where "x" is "1" or "2"), it indicates the outer VLAN should be replaced by a new VLAN where the new VLAN is VLAN IDx and the associated PCP and DEI are PCPx and DEx. If the VLAN IDx is 0, the action is to only modify the PCP and DEI value of the outer VLAN. Resv: Reserved for future use. MUST be sent as zero and ignored on receipt. Giving an example below: if the action of PUSH Inner VLAN 10 with PCP value 5 and DEI value 0 and PUSH Outer VLAN 20 with PCP value 6 and DEI value 0 is needed, the format of the VLAN-action extended community is as follows: W.

INTERNET-DRAFT L2 Flow Spec 7. Security Considerations For General BGP Flow Specification Security Considerations, see [RFC5575bis]. VLAN tagging identifies Layer 2 communities which are commonly expected to be isolated except when higher layer connection is provided, such as Layer 3 routing. Thus, the ability of the flowspec VLAN action to change the VLAN ID in a frame might compromise security. 8.
