PCEP Extension for Native IP Network
draft-ietf-pce-pcep-extension-native-ip-07
Abstract
This document defines the Path Computation Element Communication
Protocol (PCEP) extension for Central Control Dynamic Routing (CCDR)
based application in Native IP network. The scenario and framework
of CCDR in native IP is described in [RFC8735] and
[I-D.ietf-teas-pce-native-ip]. This draft describes the key
information that is transferred between Path Computation Element
(PCE) and Path Computation Clients (PCC) to accomplish the End to End
(E2E) traffic assurance in Native IP network under central control
mode.

1. Introduction
Traditionally, Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering
(MPLS-TE) traffic assurance requires the corresponding network
devices support Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or the complex
Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP)/Label Distribution Protocol
(LDP) /Segment Routing etc. technologies to assure the End-to-End
(E2E) traffic performance. But in native IP network, there will be
no such signaling protocol to synchronize the action among different
network devices. It is necessary to use the central control mode
that described in [RFC8283] to correlate the forwarding behavior
among different network devices. Draft [I-D.ietf-teas-pce-native-ip]
describes the architecture and solution philosophy for the E2E
traffic assurance in Native IP network via Dual/Multi Border Gateway
Protocol (BGP) solution. This draft describes the corresponding Path
Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions to

transfer the key information about peer address list, peer prefix
association and the explicit peer route on on-path router.
2. Conventions used in this document
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].
3. Terminology
.This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC5440]: PCE,
PCEP
The following terms are defined in this document:
o CCDR: Central Control Dynamic Routing
o E2E: End to End
o BPI: BGP Peer Info
o EPR: Explicit Peer Route
o PPA: Peer Prefix Association
o QoS: Quality of Service
4. STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY TLV
The format of STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY is defined in [RFC8231] and
included here for easy reference with the addition of the new N flag.
The right bits of N flag have been defined by other RFC documents.
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 1: STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY TLV Format
A new flag is defined to indicate the sender's support for traffic
engineering in Native IP network. The newly defined PCEP Objects and
its proceeding procedures, as stated in Section 6 MUST be supported
by PCC or PCE when this flag is set.
Wang, et al. Expires March 15, 2021 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network September 2020
N( NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY-----1 bit): If set to 1 by a PCC/PCE, the
N flag indicate that the PCC/PCE can support the traffic engineering
in Native IP network. The NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY flag MUST be set
by both the PCC and PCE in order to enable PCE-initiated Native IP
traffic engineering.
5. PCE-Initiated Native IP TE Procedures
PCE-Initated Native IP TE solution utilizing the existing PCE LSP
Initate Request message(PCInitiate)[RFC8281], PCE Report
message(PCRpt) [RFC8281]and PCE Update message(PCUpd)[RFC8281] to
accomplish the multi BGP sessions establishment, end to end TE path
deployment, and route prefixes advertisement among different BGP
sessions.
There is no label switch path within the Native IP environment, but
there exist the end to end forwarding path that assigned to the
priority traffic. Such path can be identified by the PLSP-ID that
defined in Label Switched Path(LSP) object [RFC8231]_. _The PLSP-ID
is assigned by each PCC, based on the Symbolic Path Name TLV in the
LSP object that from PCInitiate message. The Symbolic Path Name TLV
can be used to identify the end to end TE path in Native IP
environment. The association of Symbolic Path Name and each PLSP-ID
in every PCC assures the TE policies are assigned end to end in the
network.
6. New Objects Extension
Three new objects are defined in this draft:
o BPI Object: BGP Peer Info Object, used to indicate the PCC which
peer it should be peered with dynamically.
o PPA Object: Peer Prefix Association Object, used to indicate the
PCC which prefixes should be advertised via the corresponding
peer.
o EPR Object: Explicit Peer Route object, used to indicate the PCC
which route should be taken into to arrive to the peer.
7. Objects Formats
Each extension object takes the similar format, that is to say, it
began with the common object header defined in [RFC5440] as the
following:

Figure 2: PCEP Object Format
Different object-class, object type and the corresponding object body
is defined separately in the following section.
7.1. BGP Peer Info Object
The BGP Peer Info object is used to specify the information about the
peer that the PCC should establish the BGP relationship with. This
object should only be included and sent to the head and end router of
the E2E path in case there is no Route Reflection (RR) involved. If
the RR is used between the head and end routers, then such
information should be sent to head router, RR and end router
respectively.
By default, there MUST be no prefix be distributed via such BGP
session that established by this object.
By default, the Local/Peer IP address SHOULD be dedicated to the
usage of native IP TE solution, and SHOULD not be used by other BGP
sessions that established by manual or non PCE initiated
configuration.
BGP Peer Info Object-Class is TBD

Figure 11: BGP Prefix Advertisement Procedures
When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 0 in SRP object
in PCInitiate message, the PCC should send the prefixes indicated in
this object to the appointed BGP peer.
When PCC sends successfully the prefixes to the appointed BGP peer,
it should report the result via the PCRpt messages, with this object
included, and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.
Wang, et al. Expires March 15, 2021 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network September 2020
When PCC receives this object with the R bit set to 1 in SRP object
in PCInitiate message, the PCC should withdraw the prefixes
advertisement to the peer that indicated by this object.
When PCC withdraws successfully the prefixes that indicated by this
object, it should report the result via the PCRpt message, with this
object included, and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.
When PCC receives this object in PCUpd message, it should update the
BGP routes advertised to the associated peer.
When PCC updates the advertised BGP routes successfully, it should
report the result via the PCRpt message, with this object included,
and the corresponding SRP and LSP object.
The IPv4 prefix MUST only be advertised via the IPv4 BGP session and
the IPv6 prefix MUST only be advertised via the IPv6 BGP session. If
mismatch occur, an error should be reported.
When the peer info that associated with the PLSP-ID is not the same
as the peer info that indicated in this object in PCC, a error should
be reported via the PCRpt message.
Upon the error occurs, the PCC SHOULD send the corresponding error
information that defined in Section 8
The object type of the above three objects should be identical to
assure the prefixes from one address family are advertised via the
peer belong to same address family, and the traffic is forwarded to
the next hop also belong to same address family. If the mismatch
occur, the error should be reported to the PCE.
For one PLSP-ID on the PCC, the object type of PAL object should be
equal to object type of PPA object. If not, the mismatch occurs and
the related error should be reported.
8. New Error-Types and Error-Values Defined
A PCEP-ERROR object is used to report a PCEP error and is
characterized by an Error-Type that specifies that type of error and
an Error-value that provides additional information about the error.
An additional Error-Type and several Error-values are defined to
represent some the errors related to the newly defined objects, which
are related to Native IP TE procedures.

9. Management Consideration
The information transferred in this draft is mainly used for the
light weight BGP session setup, the prefix distribution and the
explicit route deployment. The planning, allocation and distribution
of the peer addresses within IGP should be accomplished in advanced
and they are out of the scope of this draft.
10. Security Considerations
Service provider should consider the protection of PCE and their
communication with the underlay devices, which is described in
document [RFC5440] and [RFC8253]
11. IANA Considerations
