OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attribute Advertisement
draft-ietf-ospf-prefix-link-attr-06.txt
Abstract
OSPFv2 requires functional extension beyond what can readily be done
with the fixed-format Link State Advertisements (LSAs) as described
in RFC 2328. This document defines OSPF opaque LSAs based on Type-
Length-Value (TLV) tuples that can be used to associate additional
attributes with prefixes or links. Dependent on the application,
these prefixes and links may or not be advertised in the fixed-format
LSAs. The OSPF opaque LSAs are optional and fully backward
compatible.

1. Introduction
OSPFv2 requires functional extension beyond what can readily be done
with the fixed-format Link State Advertisements (LSAs) as described
in RFC 2328 [OSPFV2]. This document defines OSPF opaque LSAs based
on Type-Length-Value (TLV) tuples that can be used to associate
additional attributes with prefixes or links. Dependent on the
application, these prefixes and links may or not be advertised in the
fixed-format LSAs. The OSPF opaque LSAs are optional and fully
backward compatible. This is in contrast to the approach taken in
OSPFv3 [I-D.ietf-ospf-ospfv3-lsa-extend] where the existing LSAs will
be replaced by TLV-based extended LSAs.
New requirements such as source/destination routing, route tagging,
and segment routing necessitate this extension.
This specification defines the following OSPFv2 opaque LSAs:
1. OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA - Allows advertisement of
additional attributes for prefixes advertised in Router-LSAs,
Network-LSAs, Network-Summary-LSAs, NSSA-LSAs, and AS-External-
LSAs [OSPFV2]
2. OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA - Allows advertisement of
additional attributes for links advertised in Router-LSAs.
Additionally, the following TLVs are defined:
1. OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV - Top-level TLV advertising attributes
for a prefix in the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA.
2. OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV - Top-level TLV advertising attributes
for a link in the OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA.
1.1. Requirements notation
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-KEYWORDS].
2. OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA
The OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA will be used to advertise
additional prefix attributes. Opaque LSAs are described in [OPAQUE].
Psenak, et al. Expires December 9, 2015 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes June 2015
Multiple OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs can be advertised by an
OSPFv2 router. The flooding scope of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSA depends on the scope of the advertised prefixes and is
under the control of the advertising router. In some cases (e.g.,
mapping server deployment), the LSA flooding scope may be greater
than the scope of the corresponding prefixes.
The format of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA is as follows:
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

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| LS checksum | length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| |
+- TLVs -+
| ... |
OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA
The opaque type used by OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA is 7.
The Instance field is an arbitrary value used to maintain multiple
Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs. A maximum of 16777216 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSAs may be sourced by a single OSPF instance.
The format of the TLVs within the body of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSA is the same as the format used by the Traffic Engineering
Extensions to OSPF [TE]. The variable TLV section consists of one or
more nested Type/Length/Value (TLV) tuples. Nested TLVs are also
referred to as sub-TLVs. The format of each TLV is:
Psenak, et al. Expires December 9, 2015 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes June 2015
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 |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Value... |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
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.
2.1. OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV
The OSPF Extended Prefix TLV is used to advertise additional
attributes associated with the prefix. Multiple OSPF Extended Prefix
TLVs MAY be advertised in each OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA.
However, since the opaque LSA type defines the flooding scope, the
LSA flooding scope MUST satisfy the application specific requirements
for all the prefixes included in a single OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSA. The OSPF Extended Prefix TLV has the following format:
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

OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV
Psenak, et al. Expires December 9, 2015 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes June 2015
Type
The TLV type. Suggested value is 1.
Length
Variable dependent on sub-TLVs.
Route Type
Route type: type of the OSPF route. If the route type is 0
(Unspecified), the information inside the OSPF External Prefix TLV
applies to the prefix regardless of prefix's route-type. This is
useful when prefix specific attributes are advertised by an
external entity, which is not aware of the route-type associated
with the prefix. Supported types are:
0 - Unspecified
1 - Intra-Area
3 - Inter-Area
5 - AS External
7 - NSSA External
Prefix Length
Length in of the prefix in bits.
AF
Address family for the prefix. Currently, the only supported
value is 0 for IPv4 unicast.
Flags: 1 octet field. The following flags are defined:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
|A |N | | | | | | |
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
where:
A-Flag: Attach flag. An ABR generating Extended Prefix TLV for
inter-area prefix that is locally connected or attached in
other connected area SHOULD set this flag.
N-Flag: Set when the prefix identifies the advertising router
i.e., the prefix is a host prefix advertising a globally
reachable address typically associated with a loopback address.
Psenak, et al. Expires December 9, 2015 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes June 2015
The advertising router MAY choose to NOT set this flag even
when the above conditions are met. If the flag is set and the
prefix length is NOT a host prefix then the flag MUST be
ignored. The flag is preserved when OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSA is propagated between areas.
Address Prefix
The prefix itself encoded as an even multiple of 32-bit words,
padded with zeroed bits as necessary. This encoding consumes
((PrefixLength + 31) / 32) 32-bit words. The default route is
represented by a prefix of length 0.
If this TLV is advertised multiple times for the same prefix in the
same OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA, only the first instance is
used by receiving OSPFv2 Routers. This situation SHOULD be logged as
an error.
If this TLV is advertised multiple times for the same prefix in
different OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs originated by the same
OSPF router, the OSPF advertising router is re-originating Extended
Prefix Opaque LSAs for multiple prefixes and is most likely repacking
Extended-Prefix-TLVs in Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs. In this case,
the Extended-Prefix-TLV in the Extended Prefix Opaque LSA with the
smallest Instance is used by receiving OSPFv2 Routers. This
situation MAY be logged as a warning.
It is RECOMMENDED that OSPF routers advertising Extended Prefix TLVs
in different Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs re-originate these LSAs in
ascending order of Instance to minimize the disruption.
If this TLV is advertised multiple times for the same prefix in
different OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSAs originated by the
different OSPF routers, the application using the information is
required to determine which OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA is
used. For example, the application could prefer the LSA providing
the best path to the prefix.
This document creates a registry for OSPF Extended Prefix sub-TLVs in
Section 7.
3. OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA
The OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA will be used to advertise
additional link attributes. Opaque LSAs are described in [OPAQUE].
The OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA has an area flooding scope.
Multiple OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSAs can be advertised by a
single router in an area.

OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA
The Opaque type used by OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque LSA is 8.
The Instance field is an arbitrary value used to maintain multiple
Extended Link Opaque LSAs. A maximum of 16777216 Extended Link
Opaque LSAs may be sourced by a single OSPF instance.
The format of the TLVs within the body of the OSPFv2 Extended Link
Opaque LSA is the same as described in Section 2.
3.1. OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV
The OSPFv2 Extended Link TLV is used to advertise various attributes
of the link. It describes a single link and is constructed of a set
of Sub-TLVs. There are no ordering requirements for the Sub-TLVs.
Only one Extended Link TLV SHALL be advertised in each Extended Link
Opaque LSA, allowing for fine granularity changes in the topology.
The Extended Link TLV has following format:

This document creates a registry for OSPF Extended Link sub-TLVs in
Section 7.
4. Backward Compatibility
Since opaque OSPFv2 LSAs are optional and backward compatible
[OPAQUE], the extensions described herein is fully backward
compatible. However, future OSPFv2 extensions utilizing these
extensions must address backward compatibility of the corresponding
functionality.
5. Implementation Status
This section records the status of known implementations of the
protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this
Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in RFC 6982.
The description of implementations in this section is intended to
assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to
RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation
here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort
has been spent to verify the information presented here that was
supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not
be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their
features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may
exist.
According to RFC 6982, "this will allow reviewers and working groups
to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of
running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation
and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature.
It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as
they see fit".
5.1. Implementation Survey Results
An implementation survey with seven questions related to the
implementer's support of OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes was sent to
the OSPF WG list and several known implementers. This section
contains responses from four implementers who completed the survey.
No external means were used to verify the accuracy of the information
submitted by the respondents. The respondents are considered experts
on the products they reported on. Additionally, responses were
omitted from implementers who indicated that they have not
implemented the function yet.
Four vendors and one open source entity replied to the survey. These
included Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, Huawei, Juniper, and FreeRouter
(http://freerouter.nop.hu). Cisco and Alcatel-Lucent also did
Psenak, et al. Expires December 9, 2015 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attributes June 2015
interoperability testing. FreeRouter did interoperability testing
with Cisco. The Cisco, Alcatel-Lucent, and FreeRouter
implementations are in released software versions. The Huawei and
Juniper implementation software releases are pending. For prefix
attributes, the recent change incorporating the A-Flag is pending
implementation for all four vendors. The FreeRouter implementation
includes support for the A-Flag. Implementation of the N-flag is
pending for the Huawei and Juniper implementations. Otherwise, all
the survey respondents have full implementations. For all four
vendors and the FreeRouter implementation, segment routing
[SEGMENT-ROUTING] was an application making use of the extensions.
Additionally, Cisco has implemented Topology-Independent Loop-Free
Alternatives (TI-LFA) [TI-LFA] and Bit Indexed Egress Replication
(BIER) advertisement [BIER].
Alcatel-Lucent's support of this specification is included in SR OS,
Release 13.0.R4. Cisco's support is included in IOS-XR 5.3.2. The
FreeRouter implementation is available in the FreeRouter 15.6.4
distribution. Huawei and Juniper will respectively provide support
in future versions Versatile Routing Platform (VRP) and JUniper
Network Operating System (JUNOS).
6. Security Considerations
In general, new LSAs defined in this document are subject to the same
security concerns as those described in [OSPFV2]. Additionally,
implementations must assure that malformed TLV and Sub-TLV
permutations do not result in errors that cause hard OSPF failures.
7. IANA Considerations
This specification updates the Opaque Link-State Advertisements (LSA)
Option Types with the following values:
o 7 (IANA Early Allocation [RFC7120]) - OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
Opaque LSA
o 8 (IANA Early Allocation [RFC7120]) - OSPFv2 Extended Link Opaque
LSA
This specification also creates four new registries:
o OSPF Extended Prefix Opaque LSA TLVs
o OSPF Extended Prefix TLV Sub-TLVs
o OSPF Extended Link Opaque LSA TLVs
