OSPFv3 Extensions for SRv6
draft-ietf-lsr-ospfv3-srv6-extensions-09
Abstract
The Segment Routing (SR) architecture allows a flexible definition of
the end-to-end path by encoding it as a sequence of topological
elements called segments. It can be implemented over an MPLS or IPv6
data plane. This document describes the OSPFv3 extensions required
to support Segment Routing over the IPv6 data plane (SRv6).

Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
1. Introduction
Segment Routing (SR) architecture [RFC8402] specifies how a node can
steer a packet through an ordered list of instructions, called
segments. These segments are identified through Segment Identifiers
(SIDs).
Segment Routing can be instantiated on the IPv6 data plane through
the use of the Segment Routing Header (SRH) defined in [RFC8754].
SRv6 refers to this SR instantiation on the IPv6 dataplane.
The network programming paradigm for SRv6 is specified in [RFC8986].
It describes how any behavior can be bound to a SID and how any
network program can be expressed as a combination of SIDs. It also
describes several well-known behaviors that can be bound to SRv6
SIDs.
This document specifies OSPFv3 extensions to support SRv6 as defined
in [RFC8986]. The extensions include advertisement of an OSPFv3
router's SRv6 capabilities, SRv6 Locators, and required SRv6 SIDs
along with their supported endpoint behaviors. Familiarity with
[RFC8986] is necessary to understand the extensions specified in this
document.
At a high level, the extensions to OSPFv3 are comprised of the
following:
1. An SRv6 Capabilities TLV to advertise the SRv6 features and SRH
operations supported by an OSPFv3 router
2. Several sub-TLVs are defined to advertise various SRv6 Maximum
SID Depths.
3. An SRv6 Locator TLV using an SRv6 Locator Link-State
Advertisement (LSA) to advertise the SRv6 Locator - a form of
summary address for the algorithm-specific SIDs instantiated on
an OSPFv3 router
4. TLVs and Sub-TLVs to advertise the SRv6 SIDs instantiated on an
OSPFv3 router along with their endpoint behaviors
1.1. Requirements Language
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.
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
2. SRv6 Capabilities TLV
The SRv6 Capabilities TLV is used by an OSPFv3 router to advertise
its support for the SR Segment Endpoint Node [RFC8754] functionality
along with its SRv6-related capabilities. This is an optional top
level TLV of the OSPFv3 Router Information LSA [RFC7770] which MUST
be advertised by an SRv6-enabled router.
This TLV SHOULD be advertised only once in the OSPFv3 Router
Information LSA. When multiple SRv6 Capabilities TLVs are received
from a given router, the receiver MUST use the first occurrence of
the TLV in the OSPFv3 Router Information LSA. If the SRv6
Capabilities TLV appears in multiple OSPFv3 Router Information LSAs
that have different flooding scopes, the TLV in the OSPFv3 Router
Information LSA with the area-scoped flooding scope MUST be used. If
the SRv6 Capabilities TLV appears in multiple OSPFv3 Router
Information LSAs that have the same flooding scope, the TLV in the
OSPFv3 Router Information LSA with the numerically smallest LSA ID
MUST be used and subsequent instances of the TLV MUST be ignored.
The OSPFv3 Router Information LSA can be advertised at any of the
defined flooding scopes (link, area, or Autonomous System (AS)). For
the purpose of SRv6 Capabilities TLV advertisement, area-scoped
flooding is REQUIRED.
The format of OSPFv3 SRv6 Capabilities TLV is shown below:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Type | Length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Flags | Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Sub-TLVs...
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 1: SRv6 Capabilities TLV
Where:
* Type: 2-octet field. The value for this type is 20.
* Length: 2-octet field. The total length (in octets) of the value
portion of the TLV including nested Sub-TLVs.
* Reserved: 2-octet field. It MUST be set to 0 on transmission and
MUST be ignored on receipt.
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
* Flags: 2-octet field. The flags are defined as follows:
0 1
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| |O| |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
where:
- O-flag: If set, then the router is capable of supporting the
O-bit in the SRH flags, as specified in [RFC9259].
- Other flags are not defined and are reserved for future use.
They MUST be set to 0 on transmission and MUST be ignored on
receipt.
The SRv6 Capabilities TLV may contain optional Sub-TLVs. No Sub-TLVs
are defined in this specification.
3. Advertisement of Supported Algorithms
An SRv6-enabled OSPFv3 router advertises its algorithm support using
the SR-Algorithm TLV defined in [RFC8665] as described in [RFC8666].
4. Advertisement of Maximum SRv6 SID Depths
An SRv6-enabled router may have different capabilities and limits
related to SRH processing and this needs to be advertised to other
OSPFv3 routers in the SRv6 domain.
[RFC8476] defines the means to advertise node and link specific
values for Maximum SID Depth (MSD) types. Node MSDs are advertised
using the Node MSD TLV in the OSPFv3 Router Information LSA [RFC7770]
while Link MSDs are advertised using the Link MSD Sub-TLV of the
Router-Link TLV [RFC8362]. The format of the MSD types for OSPFv3 is
defined in [RFC8476].
The MSD types for SRv6 that are defined in section 4 of
[I-D.ietf-lsr-isis-srv6-extensions] for IS-IS are also used by
OSPFv3. These MSD Types are allocated under the IGP MSD Types
registry maintained by IANA that are shared by IS-IS and OSPF. They
are described below:
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
4.1. Maximum Segments Left MSD Type
The Maximum Segments Left MSD Type signals the maximum value of the
"Segments Left" field of the SRH of a received packet before applying
the Endpoint behavior associated with a SID. If no value is
advertised, the supported value is assumed to be 0.
4.2. Maximum End Pop MSD Type
The Maximum End Pop MSD Type signals the maximum number of SIDs in
the SRH to which the router can apply "Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP)
of the SRH" or "Ultimate Segment Pop (USP) of the SRH", as defined in
[RFC8986] flavors. If the advertised value is zero or no value is
advertised, then the router cannot apply PSP or USP flavors.
4.3. Maximum H.Encaps MSD Type
The Maximum H.Encaps MSD Type signals the maximum number of SIDs that
can be added as part of the "H.Encaps" behavior as defined in
[RFC8986]. If the advertised value is zero or no value is advertised
then the headend can apply an SR Policy that only contains one
segment, without inserting any SRH. A non-zero SRH Max H.encaps MSD
indicates that the headend can insert an SRH with SIDs up to the
advertised value.
4.4. Maximum End D MSD Type
The Maximum End D MSD Type specifies the maximum number of SIDs
present in an SRH when performing decapsulation. These include, but
not limited to, End.DX6, End.DT4, End.DT46, End with USD, End.X with
USD as defined in [RFC8986]. If the advertised value is zero or no
value is advertised, then the router cannot apply any behavior that
results in decapsulation and forwarding of the inner packet when the
outer IPv6 header contains an SRH.
5. SRv6 SIDs and Reachability
An SRv6 Segment Identifier (SID) is 128 bits and consists of Locator,
Function, and Argument parts as described in [RFC8986].
An OSPFv3 router is provisioned with algorithm-specific locators for
each algorithm supported by that router. Each locator is a covering
prefix for all SIDs provisioned on that router that have the matching
algorithm.
Locators MUST be advertised within an SRv6 Locator TLV (see
Section 7.1) using an SRv6 Locator LSA (see Section 7). The SRv6
Locator LSA is introduced instead of reusing the respective Extended
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
Prefix LSAs [RFC8362] for a clear distinction between the two
different types of reachability advertisements (viz., the base OSPFv3
prefix reachability advertisements and the SRv6 Locator reachability
advertisements).
Forwarding entries for the locators advertised in the SRv6 Locator
TLV MUST be installed in the forwarding plane of receiving
SRv6-capable routers when the associated algorithm is supported by
the receiving OSPFv3 router. Locators can be of different route
types similar to existing OSPFv3 route types - Intra-Area, Inter-
Area, External, and NSSA. The advertisement and propagation of the
SRv6 Locator LSAs also follow the OSPFv3 [RFC5340] specifications for
the respective route types. The processing of the prefix advertised
in the SRv6 Locator TLV, the calculation of its reachability, and the
installation in the forwarding plane follows the OSPFv3 [RFC5340]
specifications for the respective route types.
Locators associated with algorithms 0 and 1 SHOULD be advertised
using the respective OSPFv3 Extended LSA types with extended TLVs
[RFC8362] so that routers that do not support SRv6 will install a
forwarding entry for SRv6 traffic matching those locators. When
operating in Extended LSA sparse-mode [RFC8362], these locators
SHOULD be also advertised using the respective legacy OSPFv3 LSAs
[RFC5340].
When SRv6 Locators are also advertised as Intra-Area-Prefix-LSAs and/
or E-Intra-Area-Prefix-LSAs, the SRv6 Locator MUST be considered as a
prefix associated with the router and the referenced LSA type MUST
point to the Router LSA of the advertising router as specified in
Section 4.4.3.9 of [RFC5340].
In cases where a locator advertisement is received both in a prefix
reachability advertisement (i.e., via legacy OSPFv3 LSAs and/or
Extended Prefix TLVs using OSPFv3 Extended LSAs) and an SRv6 Locator
TLV, the prefix reachability advertisement in the OSPFv3 legacy LSA
or Extended LSA MUST be preferred over the advertisement in the SRv6
Locator TLV when installing entries in the forwarding plane. This is
to prevent inconsistent forwarding entries between SRv6 capable and
SRv6 incapable OSPFv3 routers. Such preference for prefix
reachability advertisement does not have any impact on the rest of
the data advertised in the SRv6 Locator TLV.
SRv6 SIDs are advertised as Sub-TLVs in the SRv6 Locator TLV except
for SRv6 End.X SIDs/LAN End.X SIDs which are associated with a
specific Neighbor/Link and are therefore advertised as Sub-TLVs of E-
Router-Link TLV.
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
SRv6 SIDs received from other OSFPv3 routers are not directly
routable and MUST NOT be installed in the forwarding plane.
Reachability to SRv6 SIDs depends upon the existence of a covering
locator.
Adherence to the rules defined in this section will assure that SRv6
SIDs associated with a supported algorithm will be forwarded
correctly, while SRv6 SIDs associated with an unsupported algorithm
will be dropped. NOTE: The drop behavior depends on the absence of a
default/summary route matching the locator prefix.
For forwarding to work correctly, the locator associated with SRv6
SID advertisements must be the longest prefix match installed in the
forwarding plane for those SIDs. To ensure correct forwarding,
network operators should take steps to make sure that this
requirement is not compromised. For example, the following
situations should be avoided:
* Another locator associated with a different algorithm is the
longest prefix match
* Another prefix advertised via OSPFv3 legacy or Extended LSA
advertisement is the longest prefix match
5.1. SRv6 Flexible Algorithm
[I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] specifies IGP Flexible Algorithm mechanisms
for OSPFv3. Section 14.2 of [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] explains SRv6
forwarding for Flexible Algorithm and the same applies to supporting
SRv6 Flexible Algorithm using OSPFv3. When the algorithm value that
is advertised in the SRv6 Locator TLV (refer to Section 7.1)
represents a Flexible Algorithm, the procedures described in section
14.2 of [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] are followed for the programming of
those specific SRv6 Locators.
Locators associated with Flexible Algorithms SHOULD NOT be advertised
in the base OSPFv3 prefix reachability advertisements. Advertising
the Flexible Algorithm locator in a regular prefix reachability
advertisement would make them available for non-Flexible Algorithm
forwarding (i.e., algorithm 0).
The procedures for OSPFv3 Flexible Algorithm for SR-MPLS, as
specified in [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo], like ASBR reachability, inter-
area, external, and NSSA prefix advertisements and their use in
Flexible Algorithm route computation also apply for SRv6.

Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
6. Advertisement of Anycast Property
Both prefixes and SRv6 Locators may be configured as anycast and as
such the same value can be advertised by multiple routers. It is
useful for other routers to know that the advertisement is for an
anycast identifier.
A new bit in OSPFv3 PrefixOptions [RFC5340] is defined to advertise
the anycast property:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
|AC|EL| N|DN| P| x|LA|NU|
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
Figure 2: OSPFv3 Prefix Options Field
Value: 0x80
Description: Anycast (AC-bit)
When the prefix/SRv6 Locator is configured as anycast, the AC-bit
SHOULD be set. Otherwise, this flag MUST be clear.
The AC-bit MUST be preserved when re-advertising the prefix/SRv6
Locator across areas.
The AC-bit and the N-bit MUST NOT both be set. If both N-bit and AC-
bit are set in the prefix/SRv6 Locator advertisement, the receiving
routers MUST ignore the N-bit.
The same prefix/SRv6 Locator can be advertised by multiple routers.
If at least one of them sets the AC-bit in its advertisement, the
prefix/SRv6 Locator SHOULD be considered as anycast.
A prefix/SRv6 Locator that is advertised by a single node and without
an AC-bit is considered node-specific.
All the nodes advertising the same anycast SRv6 Locator MUST
instantiate the exact same set of SIDs under that anycast SRv6
Locator. Failure to do so may result in traffic being dropped or
misrouted.
The PrefixOptions field is common to the prefix reachability
advertisements (i.e., the base OSPFv3 prefix LSA types defined in
[RFC5340] and the OSPFv3 Extended Prefix TLV types defined in
[RFC8362]) and the SRv6 Locator TLV advertisements specified in
Section 7.1 of this document. When a router originates both the
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
prefix reachability advertisement and the SRv6 Locator advertisement
for a given prefix, the router SHOULD advertise the same
PrefixOptions bits in both advertisements. In the case of any
inconsistency between the PrefixOptions advertised in the SRv6
Locator and in the prefix reachability advertisements, the ones
advertised in prefix reachability advertisement MUST be preferred.
7. SRv6 Locator LSA
The SRv6 Locator LSA has a function code of 42 while the S1/S2 bits
are dependent on the desired flooding scope for the LSA. The
flooding scope of the SRv6 Locator LSA depends on the scope of the
advertised SRv6 Locator and is under the control of the advertising
router. The U-bit will be set indicating that the LSA should be
flooded even if it is not understood.
Multiple SRv6 Locator LSAs can be advertised by an OSPFv3 router and
they are distinguished by their Link State IDs (which are chosen
arbitrarily by the originating router).
The format of SRv6 Locator LSA is shown below:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

Figure 3: SRv6 Locator LSA
The format of the TLVs within the body of the SRv6 Locator LSA is the
same as the format used by [RFC3630]. The variable TLV section
consists of one or more nested TLV tuples. Nested TLVs are also
referred to as Sub-TLVs. The format of each TLV is:

Figure 4: SRv6 Locator LSA TLV Format
The Length field defines the length of the value portion in octets
(thus, a TLV with no value portion would have a length of 0). The
TLV is padded to 4-octet alignment; padding is not included in the
Length field (so a 3-octet value would have a length of 3, but the
total size of the TLV would be 8 octets). Nested TLVs are also
32-bit aligned. For example, a 1-byte value would have the Length
field set to 1 and 3 octets of padding would be added to the end of
the value portion of the TLV. The padding is composed of zeros.
7.1. SRv6 Locator TLV
The SRv6 Locator TLV is a top-level TLV of the SRv6 Locator LSA that
is used to advertise an SRv6 Locator, its attributes, and SIDs
associated with it. Multiple SRv6 Locator TLVs MAY be advertised in
each SRv6 Locator LSA. However, since the S12 bits define the
flooding scope, the LSA flooding scope MUST satisfy the application-
specific requirements for all the locators included in a single SRv6
Locator LSA.
When multiple SRv6 Locator TLVs are received from a given router in
an SRv6 Locator LSA for the same Locator, the receiver MUST use the
first occurrence of the TLV in the LSA. If the SRv6 Locator TLV for
the same Locator appears in multiple SRv6 Locator LSAs that have
different flooding scopes, the TLV in the SRv6 Locator LSA with the
area-scoped flooding scope MUST be used. If the SRv6 Locator TLV for
the same Locator appears in multiple SRv6 Locator LSAs that have the
same flooding scope, the TLV in the SRv6 Locator LSA with the
numerically smallest Link-State ID MUST be used and subsequent
instances of the TLV MUST be ignored.
The format of SRv6 Locator TLV is shown below:

* Route-Tag sub-TLV [RFC8362]
* Prefix Source OSPF Router-ID sub-TLV [RFC9084]
* Prefix Source Router Address sub-TLV [RFC9084]
8. Advertisement of SRv6 End SIDs
The SRv6 End SID Sub-TLV is a Sub-TLV of the SRv6 Locator TLV in the
SRv6 Locator LSA (defined in Section 7). It is used to advertise the
SRv6 SIDs belonging to the router along with their associated
endpoint behaviors. SIDs associated with adjacencies are advertised
as described in Section 9. Every SRv6-enabled OSPFv3 router SHOULD
advertise at least one SRv6 SID associated with an END behavior for
itself as specified in [RFC8986].
SRv6 End SIDs inherit the algorithm from the parent locator. The
SRv6 End SID MUST be allocated from its associated locator. SRv6 End
SIDs that are NOT allocated from the associated locator MUST be
ignored.
Li, et al. Expires 18 July 2023 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
The router MAY advertise multiple instances of the SRv6 End SID Sub-
TLV within the SRv6 Locator TLV - one for each of the SRv6 SIDs to be
advertised. When multiple SRv6 End SID Sub-TLVs are received in the
SRv6 Locator TLV from a given router for the same SRv6 SID value, the
receiver MUST use the first occurrence of the Sub-TLV in the SRv6
Locator TLV.
The format of SRv6 End SID Sub-TLV is shown below

Sub-TLVs: Used to advertise Sub-TLVs that provide additional
attributes for the given SRv6 SID.
9. Advertisement of SRv6 SIDs Associated with Adjacencies
The SRv6 endpoint behaviors defined in [RFC8986] include certain
behaviors that are specific to links or adjacencies. The most basic
of these which is critical for link-state routing protocols like
OSPFv3 is the End.X behavior that is an instruction to forward to a
specific neighbor on a specific link. These SRv6 SIDs and others
that are defined in [RFC8986] which are specific to links or
adjacencies need to be advertised to OSPFv3 routers within an area to
steer SRv6 traffic over a specific link or adjacency.
The advertisement of SRv6 SIDs that are specific to a particular
neighbor is accomplished via two different optional Sub-TLVs of the
E-Router-Link TLV defined in [RFC8362]:
* SRv6 End.X SID Sub-TLV: Used for OSPFv3 adjacencies over point-to-
point or point-to-multipoint links and for the adjacency to the
Designated Router (DR) over broadcast and Non-Broadcast-Multi-
Access (NBMA) links.
* SRv6 LAN End.X SID Sub-TLV: Used for OSPFv3 adjacencies on
broadcast and NBMA links to the Backup DR and DR-Other neighbors.
This Sub-TLV includes the OSPFv3 Router-ID of the neighbor and
thus allows for an instance of this Sub-TLV for each neighbor to
be explicitly advertised as a Sub-TLV of the E-Router-Link TLV for
the same link.
Every SRv6 enabled OSPFv3 router SHOULD instantiate at least one
unique SRv6 End.X SID corresponding to each of its neighbors. A
router MAY instantiate more than one SRv6 End.X SID for a single
neighbor. The same SRv6 End.X SID MAY be advertised for more than
one neighbor. Thus multiple instances of the SRv6 End.X SID and SRv6
LAN End.X SID Sub-TLVs MAY be advertised within the E-Router-Link TLV
for a single link.
All End.X and LAN End.X SIDs MUST be subsumed by the subnet of a
Locator with the matching algorithm which is advertised by the same
OSPFv3 router in an SRv6 Locator TLV. End.X SIDs which do not meet
this requirement MUST be ignored. This ensures that the OSPFv3
router advertising the End.X or LAN End.X SID is also advertising its
corresponding Locator with the algorithm that will be used for
computing paths destined to the SID.

MUST be less than or equal to 128 bits. If the sum of all four sizes
advertised in the SRv6 SID Structure Sub-TLV is larger than 128 bits,
the parent TLV/Sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the receiver.
The SRv6 SID Structure Sub-TLV is intended for informational use by
the control and management planes. It MUST NOT be used at a transit
node (as defined in [RFC8754]) for forwarding packets. As an
example, this information could be used for:
* validation of SRv6 SIDs being instantiated in the network and
advertised via OSPFv3. These can be learned by controllers via
BGP-LS and then be monitored for conformance to the SRv6 SID
allocation scheme chosen by the operator as described in
Section 3.2 of [RFC8986].
* verification and the automation for securing the SRv6 domain by
provisioning filtering rules at SR domain boundaries as described
in Section 5 of [RFC8754].

12. Security Considerations
Existing security extensions as described in [RFC5340] and [RFC8362]
apply to these SRv6 extensions. While OSPFv3 is under a single
administrative domain, there can be deployments where potential
attackers have access to one or more networks in the OSPFv3 routing
domain. In these deployments, stronger authentication mechanisms
such as those specified in [RFC4552] or [RFC7166] SHOULD be used.
Implementations MUST assure that malformed TLV and Sub-TLV defined in
this document are detected and do not provide a vulnerability for
attackers to crash the OSPFv3 router or routing process. Reception
of malformed TLV or Sub-TLV SHOULD be counted and/or logged for
further analysis. Logging of malformed TLVs and Sub-TLVs SHOULD be
rate-limited to prevent a Denial of Service (DoS) attack (distributed
or otherwise) from overloading the OSPFv3 control plane.

Internet-Draft OSPFv3 Extensions for SRV6 January 2023
This document describes the OSPFv3 extensions required to support
Segment Routing over an IPv6 data plane. The security considerations
for Segment Routing are discussed in [RFC8402]. [RFC8986] defines
the SRv6 Network Programming concept and specifies the main Segment
Routing behaviors to enable the creation of interoperable overlays;
the security considerations from that document apply too.
The advertisement for an incorrect MSD value may have negative
consequences, see [RFC8476] for additional considerations.
Security concerns associated with the setting of the O-flag are
described in [RFC9259].
Security concerns associated with the usage of Flexible Algorithms
are described in [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo].
