Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
1. Introduction
Generally, Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-
TE) requires the corresponding network devices support Multiprotocol
Label Switching (MPLS) or Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP)/Label
Distribution Protocol (LDP) technologies to assure the End-to-End
(E2E) traffic performance. In Segment Routing either IGP extensions
or BGP are used to steer a packet through an SR Policy instantiated
as an ordered list of instructions called "segments". 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. [RFC8821]
describes the architecture and solution philosophy for the E2E
traffic assurance in Native IP network via Multi Border Gateway
Protocol (BGP) solution. This draft describes the corresponding Path
Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions to
transfer the key information about BGP peer info, peer prefix
advertisement and the explicit peer route on on-path routers.
2. Conventions used in this document
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.
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 BPI: BGP Peer Info
o EPR: Explicit Peer Route
o PPA: Peer Prefix Advertisement
o QoS: Quality of Service

4. Capability Advertisemnt
4.1. Open message
During the PCEP Initialization Phase, PCEP Speakers (PCE or PCC)
advertise their support of Native IP extensions.
This document defines a new Path Setup Type (PST) [RFC8408] for
Native-IP, as follows:
o PST = TBD1: Path is a Native IP path as per [RFC8821].
A PCEP speaker MUST indicate its support of the function described in
this document by sending a PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV in the OPEN
object with this new PST included in the PST list.
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller] defined the PCECC-
CAPABILITY sub-TLV to exchange information about their PCECC
capability. A new flag is defined in PCECC-CAPABILITY sub-TLV for
Native IP:
N (NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY - 1 bit - TBD2): If set to 1 by a PCEP
speaker, it indicates that the PCEP speaker is capable for TE in
Native IP network as specified in this document. The flag MUST be
set by both the PCC and PCE in order to support this extension.
If a PCEP speaker receives the PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV with
the newly defined path setup type, but without the N bit set in
PCECC-CAPABILITY sub-TLV, it MUST:
o Send a PCErr message with Error-Type=10(Reception of an invalid
object) and Error-Value TBD3(PCECC NATIVE-IP-TE-CAPABILITY bit is
not set).
o Terminate the PCEP session
5. PCEP messages
PCECC Native IP TE solution utilizing the existing PCE LSP Initate
Request message(PCInitiate)[RFC8281], and PCE Report message(PCRpt)
[RFC8281] to accomplish the multi BGP sessions establishment, E2E TE
path deployment, and route prefixes advertisement among different BGP
sessions. A new PST for Native-IP is used to indicate the path setup
based on TE in Native IP networks.
The extended PCInitiate message described in
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller] is used to download
or cleanup central controller's instructions (CCIs).
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller] specify an object
called CCI for the encoding of central controller's instructions.
This document specify a new CCI object-type for Native IP. The PCEP
messages are extended in this document to handle the PCECC operations
for Native IP. Three new PCEP Objects (BGP Peer Info (BPI) Object,
Explicit Peer Route (EPR) Object and Peer Prefix Advertisement (PPA)
Object) are defined in this document. Refer to (Section 7) for
detail object definitions.
5.1. The PCInitiate message
The PCInitiate Message defined in [RFC8281] and extended in
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller] is further extended
to support Native-IP CCI.
The format of the extended PCInitiate message is as follows:
<PCInitiate Message> ::= <Common Header>
<PCE-initiated-lsp-list>
Where:
<Common Header> is defined in [RFC5440]
<PCE-initiated-lsp-list> ::= <PCE-initiated-lsp-request>
[<PCE-initiated-lsp-list>]
<PCE-initiated-lsp-request> ::=
(<PCE-initiated-lsp-instantiation>|
<PCE-initiated-lsp-deletion>|
<PCE-initiated-lsp-central-control>)
<PCE-initiated-lsp-central-control> ::= <SRP>
<LSP>
(<cci-list>|
((<BPI>|<EPR>|<PPA>)
<CCI>))
<cci-list> ::= <CCI>
[<cci-list>]
Where:
<cci-list> is as per
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller].
<PCE-initiated-lsp-instantiation> and
<PCE-initiated-lsp-deletion> are as per
[RFC8281].
The LSP and SRP objects are defined in [RFC8231].
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
When PCInitiate message is used create Native IP instructions, the
SRP, LSP and CCI objects MUST be present. The error handling for
missing SRP, LSP or CCI object is as per
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller]. Further only one
of BPI, EPR, or PPA object MUST be present. The PLSP-ID within the
LSP object should be set by PCC uniquely according to the Symbolic
Path Name TLV that included in the CCI object. The Symbolic Path
Name is used by the PCE/PCC to identify uniquely the E2E native IP TE
path.
If none of them are present, the receiving PCC MUST send a PCErr
message with Error-type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-
value=TBD4 (Native IP object missing). If there are more than one of
BPI, EPR or PPA object are presented, the receiving PCC MUST send a
PCErr message with Error-type=19(Invalid Operation) and Error-
value=TBD5(Only one of the BPI, EPR or PPA object can be included in
this message).
To cleanup the SRP object must set the R (remove) bit.
5.2. The PCRpt message
The PCRpt message is used to acknowledge the Native-IP instructions
received from the central controller (PCE).
The format of the PCRpt message is as follows:
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
<PCRpt Message> ::= <Common Header>
<state-report-list>
Where:
<state-report-list> ::= <state-report>[<state-report-list>]
<state-report> ::= (<lsp-state-report>|
<central-control-report>)
<lsp-state-report> ::= [<SRP>]
<LSP>
<path>
<central-control-report> ::= [<SRP>]
<LSP>
(<cci-list>|
((<BPI>|<EPR>|<PPA>)
<CCI>))
Where:
<path> is as per [RFC8231] and the LSP and SRP object are
also defined in [RFC8231].
The error handling for missing CCI object is as per
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller]. Further only one
of BPI, EPR, or PPA object MUST be present.
If none of them are present, the receiving PCE MUST send a PCErr
message with Error-type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-
value=TBD4 ( Native IP object missing). If there are more than one
of BPI, EPR or PPA object are presented, the receiving PCE MUST send
a PCErr message with Error-type=19(Invalid Operation) and Error-
value=TBD5(Only one of the BPI, EPR or PPA object can be included in
this message).
6. PCECC Native IP TE Procedures
The detail procedures for the TE in native IP environment are
described in the following sections.
6.1. BGP Session Establishment Procedures
The procedures for establishing the BGP session between two peers is
shown below, using the PCInitiate and PCRpt message pair.
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
The PCInitiate message should be sent to PCC which acts as BGP router
and route reflector(RR). In the example in Figure 1, it should be
sent to R1(M1), R3(M2 & M3) and R7(M4), when R3 acts as RR.
When PCC receives the BPI and CCI object (with the R bit set to 0 in
SRP object) in PCInitiate message, the PCC should try to establish
the BGP session with the indicated Peer AS and Local/Peer IP address.
When PCC creates successfully the BGP session that is indicated by
the associated information, it should report the result via the PCRpt
messages, with BPI object and the corresponding SRP and CCI object
included.
When PCC receives this message with the R bit set to 1 in SRP object
in PCInitiate message, the PCC should clear the BGP session that
indicated by the BPI object.
When PCC clears successfully the specified BGP session, it should
report the result via the PCRpt message, with the BPI object
included, and the corresponding SRP and CCI object.

|M4-R| |PCRpt |BPI Object(Local_IP=R7_A,Peer_IP=R3_A)|
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
If the PCC cannot establish the BGP session that required by this
object, it should report the error values via PCErr message with the
newly defined error type(Error-type=TBD6) and error value(Error-
value=TBD7, Peer AS not match; or Error-Value=TBD8, Peer IP can't be
reached), which is indicated in Section 11
If the Local IP Address or Peer IP Address within BPI object is used
in other existing BGP sessions, the PCC should report such error
situation via PCErr message with Err-type=TBD6 and error value(Error-
value=TBD9, Local IP is in use; Error-value=TBD10, Remote IP is in
use).
6.2. Explicit Route Establish Procedures
The detail procedures for the explicit route establishment procedures
is shown below, using PCInitiate and PCRpt message pair.
The PCInitiate message should be sent to the on-path routers
respectively. In the example, for explicit route from R1 to R7, the
PCInitiate message should be sent to R1(M1), R2(M2) and R4(M3), as
shown in Figure 2. For explicit route from R7 to R1, the PCInitiate
message should be sent to R7(M1), R4(M2) and R2(M3), as shown in
Figure 3.
When PCC receives the EPR and the CCI object (with the R bit set to 0
in SRP object) in PCInitiate message, the PCC should install the
explicit route to the the peer.
When PCC install successfully the explicit route to the peer, it
should report the result via the PCRpt messages, with EPR object and
the corresponding SRP and CCI object included.
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
When PCC receives the EPR and the CCI object with the R bit set to 1
in SRP object in PCInitiate message, the PCC should clear the
explicit route to the peer that indicated by the EPR object.
When PCC clear successfully the explicit route that indicated by this
object, it should report the result via the PCRpt message, with the
EPR object included, and the corresponding SRP and CCI object.

In order to avoid the transient loop during the deploy of explicit
peer route, the EPR object should be sent to the PCCs in the reverse
order of the E2E path. To remove the explicit peer route, the EPR
object should be sent to the PCCs in the same order of E2E path.
Upon the error occurs, the PCC SHOULD send the corresponding error
via PCErr message, with an error information (Error-type=TBD6, Error-
value=TBD12, Explicit Peer Route Error) that defined in Section 11.
When the peer info is not the same as the peer info that indicated in
BPI object in PCC for the same path that is identified by Symbolic
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
Path Name TLV, an error (Error-type=TBD6, Error-value=17, EPR/BPI
Peer Info mismatch) should be reported via the PCErr message.
6.3. BGP Prefix Advertisement Procedures
The detail procedures for BGP prefix advertisement are shown below,
using PCInitiate and PCRpt message pair.
The PCInitiate message should be sent to PCC that acts as BGP peer
router only. In the example, it should be sent to R1(M1) or R7(M2)
respectively.
When PCC receives the PPA and the CCI 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 PPA object
and the corresponding SRP and CCI object included.
When PCC receives the PPA and the CCI 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 the
PPA object included, and the corresponding SRP and CCI 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(Error-type=TBD6, Error-value=TBD18, BPI/PPR
address family mismatch) should be reported via PCErr message.
When the peer info is not the same as the peer info that indicated in
BPI object in PCC for the same path that is identified by Symbolic
Path Name TLV, an error (Error-type=TBD6, Error-value=TBD19, PPA/BPI
peer info mismatch) should be reported via the PCErr message.

8. End to End Path Protection
[RFC8697] defines the path associations procedures between sets of
Label Switched Path (LSP). Such procedures can also be used for the
E2E path protection. To accomplish this, the PCE should attach the
ASSOCIATION object with the EPR object in the PCInitiate message,
with the association type set to 1 (Path Protection Association).
The Extended Association ID that included within the Extended
Association ID TLV, which is included in the ASSOCIATION object,
should be set to the Symbolic Path Name of different E2E path. This
PCinitiate should be sent to the head-end of the E2E path.
The head-end of the path can use the existing path detection
mechanism, to monitor the status of the active path. Once it detects
the failure, it can switch the backup protection path immediately.
9. Re-Delegation and Clean up
In case of a PCE failure, a new PCE can gain control over the central
controller instructions. As per the PCEP procedures in [RFC8281],
the State Timeout Interval timer is used to ensure that a PCE failure
does not result in automatic and immediate disruption for the
services. Similarly, as per
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-extension-for-pce-controller], the central
controller instructions are not removed immediately upon PCE failure.
Instead, they could be re-delegated to the new PCE before the
expiration of this timer, or be cleaned up on the expiration of this
timer. The allows for network clean up without manual intervention.
The PCC MUST support the removal of CCI as one of the behaviors
applied on expiration of the State Timeout Interval timer.
10. BGP Considerations
This draft defines the procedures and objects to create the BGP
sessions and advertises the associated prefixes dynamically. Only
the key information, for example peer IP addresses, peer AS number
are exchanged via the PCEP protocol. Other parameters that are
needed for the BGP session setup should be derived from their default
values, as described in Section 7.2. Upon receives such key
information, the BGP module on the PCC should try to accomplish the
task that appointed by the PCEP protocol and report the status to the
PCEP modules.
There is no influence to current implementation of BGP Finite State
Machine(FSM). The PCEP cares only the success and failure status of
BGP session, and act upon such information accordingly.
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 21]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
The error handling procedures related to incorrect BGP parameters are
specified in Section 6.1, Section 6.2, and Section 6.3. The handling
of the dynamic BGP sessions and associated prefixes on PCE failure is
described in Section 9.
11. 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.

| Error-Type | Meaning | Error-value |
+============+===============+=====================================+

12. Deployment Considerations
The information transferred in this draft is mainly used for the
light weight BGP session setup, explicit route deployment and the
prefix distribution. The planning, allocation and distribution of
Wang, et al. Expires December 9, 2021 [Page 22]
Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Native IP Network June 2021
the peer addresses within IGP should be accomplished in advanced and
they are out of the scope of this draft.
[RFC8232] describes the state synchronization procedure between
stateful PCE and PCC. The communication of PCE and PCC described in
this draft should also follow this procedures, treat the three newly
defined objects that associated with the same symbolic path name as
the attribute of the same path in the LSP-DB.
When PCE detects one or some of the PCCs are out of control, it
should recompute and redeploy the traffic engineering path for native
IP on the active PCCs. When PCC detects that it is out of control of
the PCE, it should clear the information that initiated by the PCE.
The PCE should assures the avoidance of possible transient loop in
such node failure when it deploy the explicit peer route on the PCCs.
If the established BGP session is broken after some time, the PCC
should also report such error via PCErr message with Err-type=TBD6
and error value(Error-value=TBD11, Existing BGP session is broken).
Upon receiving such PCErr message, the PCE should clear the prefixes
advertisement on the previous BGP session, clear the explicit peer
route to the previous peer address; select other Local_IP/Peer_IP
pair to establish the new BGP session, deploy the explicit peer route
to the new peer address, and advertises the prefixes on the new BGP
session.
13. Security Considerations
The setup of BGP sessions, prefix advertisement, and explicit peer
route establishment are all controlled by the PCE. See [RFC4271] and
[RFC4272] for BGP security considerations. Security consideration
part in [RFC5440] and [RFC8231] should be considered. To prevent a
bogus PCE sending harmful messages to the network nodes, the network
devices should authenticate the validity of the PCE and ensure a
secure communication channel between them. Mechanisms described in
[RFC8253] should be used.
14. IANA Considerations
14.1. Path Setup Type Registry
[RFC8408] created a sub-registry within the "Path Computation Element
Protocol (PCEP) Numbers" registry called "PCEP Path Setup Types".
IANA is requested to allocate a new code point within this registry,
