         TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links):
     ESADI (End Station Address Distribution Information) Protocol
                    <draft-ietf-trill-esadi-02.txt>



Abstract

   The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links)
   protocol provides least cost pair-wise data forwarding without
   configuration in multi-hop networks with arbitrary topologies and
   link technologies.  TRILL supports multi-pathing of both unicast and
   multicast traffic.  Devices that implement the TRILL protocol are
   called RBridges (Routing Bridges) or TRILL Switches.

   ESADI (End Station Address Distribution Information) is an optional
   protocol by which a TRILL switch can communicate, in a Data Label
   (VLAN or Fine Grained Label) scoped way, end station addresses and
   other information to TRILL switches pariticipating in ESADI for the
   relevant Data Label.  This document updates RFC 6325, specifically
   the documentation of the ESADI protocol.

1. Introduction

   The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links)
   protocol [RFC6325] provides least cost pair-wise data forwarding
   without configuration in multi-hop networks with arbitrary topologies
   and link technologies, safe forwarding even during periods of
   temporary loops, and support for multi-pathing of both unicast and
   multicast traffic.  TRILL accomplishes this with the IS-IS
   (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) [IS-IS] [RFC1195]
   [rfc6326bis] link state routing protocol using a header with a hop
   count.  The design supports optimization of the distribution of
   multi-destination frames and two types of data labeling, VLANs
   (Virtual Local Area Networks) and FGLs (Fine Grained Labels,
   [RFCfgl]).  Devices that implement TRILL are called TRILL switches or
   RBridges (Routing Bridges).

   There are five ways an RBridge can learn end station addresses, as
   described in Section 4.8 of [RFC6325].  The ESADI (End Station
   Address Distribution Information) protocol is an optional Data Label
   scoped way RBridges can communicate, with each other, information
   such as end station addresses and their RBridge of attachment. An
   RBridge that is announcing interest in a Data Label MAY use the ESADI
   protocol to announce the end station address of some or all of its
   attached end stations in that Data Label to other RBridges that are
   running ESADI for that Data Label. (In the future, ESADI may also be
   used for additional types of information.)

   By default, TRILL switches with connected end stations learn
   addresses from the data plane when ingressing and egressing native
   frames. The ESADI protocol's potential advantages over data plane
   learning include the following:

   1. Security advantages: (1a) The ESADI protocol can be used to
      announce end stations with an authenticated enrollment (for
      example enrollment authenticated by cryptographically based EAP
      (Extensible Authentication Protocol [RFC3748]) methods via
      [802.1X]). (1b) The ESADI protocol supports cryptographic
      authentication of its message payloads for more secure
      transmission.

   2. Fast update advantages: The ESADI protocol provides a fast update
      of end stations MAC (Media Access Control) addresses.  If an end
      station is unplugged from one RBridge and plugged into another,
      frames ingressed for that MAC address can be black holed.  They
      can be sent just to the older egress RBridge that the end station
      was connected to until cached address information at some remote
      ingress RBridge times out, possibly for tens of seconds or more
      [RFC6325].

INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   MAC address reachability information, some ESADI parameters, and
   optionally authentication information are carried in ESADI packets
   rather than in the TRILL IS-IS protocol.  As described below, ESADI
   is, for each Data Label, a virtual logical topology overlay in the
   TRILL topology. An advantage of using ESADI over using TRILL IS-IS is
   that the end station attachment information is not flooded to all
   RBridges through TRILL IS-IS but only to RBridges advertising ESADI
   participation for the Data Label in which those end stations occur.




1.1 Content and Precedence

   This document updates [RFC6325], the TRILL basic specification,
   essentially replacing the description of the ESADI protocol, and
   prevails over [RFC6325] where they conflict.

   Section 2 is the ESADI protocol overview. Section 3 specifies ESADI
   DRB state.  Section 4 discusses the processing of ESADI PDUs. Section
   5 discusses interaction with other modes of end station address
   learning. And Section 6 describes the ESADI-LSP contents.




1.2 Terminology

   This document uses the acronyms defined in [RFC6325] and the
   following phrase:

      Data Label - VLAN or FGL.

      FGL - Fine Grained Lable [RFCfgl]

      LSP number zero - A Link State PDU with fragment number equal to
            zero

   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 [RFC2119].

2. ESADI Protocol Overview

   ESADI is a Data Label scoped way for RBridges to announce and learn
   end station addresses rapidly and securely.  An RBridge that is
   announcing participation in ESADI for one or more Data Labels is
   called an ESADI RBridge.

   ESADI is a separate protocol from the TRILL IS-IS implemented by all
   RBridges in a campus.  There is a separate ESADI instance for each
   Data Label (VLAN or FGL). In essence, for each Data Label, there is a
   modified instance of the IS-IS reliable flooding mechanism in which
   ESADI RBridges may choose to participate. (These are not the
   instances being specified in [RFC6822].) It is an implementation
   decision how independent the multiple ESADI instances at an RBridge
   are. For example, the ESADI link state database could be in a single
   database with a field in each record indicating the Data Label to
   which it applies or could be a separate database per Data Label. But
   the ESADI update process operates separately for each ESADI instance
   and independently from the TRILL IS-IS update process.

   ESADI does no routing so there is no reason for pseudo-nodes in ESADI
   and none are created. This allows re-purposing one byte of the LSP ID
   field to expand the number of possible fragments from 2**8 to 2**16.
   In [IS-IS], the "LSP ID" field is 8 bytes. (Actually it is the length
   of System ID plus 2, but we will assume a 6-byte System ID.)  The top
   6 bytes of the LSP ID are the router's System ID, the next byte is
   non-zero for pseudo-nodes, and the bottom byte is the fragment
   number. In ESADI-LSPs, there is just the System ID followed by two
   bytes of fragment number.  The same change is made to the LSP ID
   field of the Remaining Lifetime TLV which is used in EASDI-CSNP and
   ESADI-PSNP. The bottom byte of the ESADI CSNP/PSNP Header Source ID
   is always zero.

   After the TRILL header, ESADI packets have an inner Ethernet header
   with the Inner.MacDA of "All-Egress-RBridges" (formerly called "All-
   ESADI-RBridges"), an inner Data Label specifying the VLAN or FGL of
   interest, and the "L2-IS-IS" Ethertype followed by the ESADI payload
   as shown in Figure 1.

2.1 ESADI Virtual Link
   All transit RBridges forward ESADI packets as if they were ordinary
   TRILL Data packets.  Because of this forwarding, it appears to an
   instance of the ESADI protocol at an RBridge that it is directly
   connected by a multi-access virtual link to all other RBridges in the
   campus running ESADI for that Data Label. No "routing" computation or
   routing decisions ever have to be performed by ESADI. An ESADI


H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 10]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   RBridge merely transmits the ESADI packets it originates on this
   virtual link as described for TRILL Data packets in [RFC6325] and
   [RFCfgl]. For multicast ESADI packets it may use any distribution
   tree that it might use for an ordinary multi-destination TRILL Data
   packet. RBridges that do not implement the ESADI protocol, do not
   have it enabled, or are not participating for the Data Label of an
   ESADI packet do not decapsulate or locally process any TRILL ESADI
   packets they receive.  Thus the ESADI packets are transparently
   tunneled through transit RBridges.




2.2 ESADI Neighbor Determination

   The ESADI instance for Data Label X at an RBridge RB1 determines who
   its ESADI neighbors are by logically examining the TRILL IS-IS link
   state database for RBridges that are data and IS-IS reachable from
   RB1 (see Section 2 of [ClearCorrect]) and are announcing their
   participation in Data Label X ESADI. When an RBridge RB2 becomes IS-
   IS or data unreachable from RB1 or the relevant entries for RB2 are
   purged from the core IS-IS link state database, it is lost as a
   potential neighbor and also dropped from any ESADI instances. And
   when RB2 is no longer announcing participation in Data Label X ESADI,
   it ceases to be a neighbor for the Data Label X ESADI instance, these
   considerations being Data Label scoped. Because of these mechanisms,
   there are no "Hellos" sent in ESADI.

   Participation announcement in a VLAN scoped ESADI instance is through
   setting a flag bit in the Interested VLANs sub-TLV and announcement
   for an FGL scoped ESADI instance is through setting a flag bit in the
   Interested Labels sub-TLV [rfc6326bis]. (See Section 7.1)




2.3 ESADI Payloads

   TRILL ESADI packet payloads are structured like IS-IS PDUs, except as
   indicated below, but are always TRILL encapsulated on the wire as if
   they were TRILL Data packets.  The information distributed by the
   ESADI protocol includes a list of local end station MAC addresses
   connected to the originating RBridge and, for each such address, a
   one octet unsigned "confidence" rating in the range 0-254 (see
   Section 6.2). It is entirely up to the originating RBridge which
   locally connected MAC addresses it wishes to advertise via ESADI and
   with what confidence. It MAY advertise all, some, or none of such
   addresses. In addition, some ESADI parameters of the advertising
   RBridge (see Section 6.1) and possibly authenticaiton information
   (see Section 6.3) are included. Future uses of ESADI may distribute

   TRILL ESADI-LSPs MUST NOT contain a Data Label ID in their payload.
   The Data Label to which the ESADI data applies is the Data Label of
   the TRILL Data packet enclosing the ESADI payload. If a Data Label ID
   could occur within the payload, it might conflict with that TRILL
   Data packet Data Label and could conflict with any future Data Label
   mapping scheme that may be adopted [VLANmapping]. If a VLAN or FGL ID
   field within an ESADI-LSP PDU does include a value, that field's
   contents is ignored.

3. ESADI DRB Determination

   Because ESADI does no adjacency announcement or routing, the ESADI-
   DRB never creates a pseudonode. But a DRB is still needed for LSP
   synchronization by issuing ESADI-CSNP PDUs and responding to ESADI-
   PSNP PDUs.

   Generally speaking, the DRB election on the ESADI virtual link (see
   Section 2.1) operates similarly to a TRILL IS-IS broadcast link
   [RFC6327] with the following exceptions: In the Data Label X ESADI-
   DRB election at RB1 on an ESADI virtual link, the candidates are the
   local ESADI instance for Data Label X and all remote ESADI instances
   at RBridges that (1) are data and IS-IS reachable from RB1
   [ClearCorrect], and (2) are announcing in their TRILL IS-IS LSP that
   they are participating in ESADI for Data Label X. The winner is the
   instance with the highest ESADI Parameter 7-bit priority field with
   ties broken by System ID, comparing fields as unsigned integers with
   the larger magnitude considered higher priority. "SNPA/MAC address"
   is not considered and there is no "Port ID".

4. ESADI PDU processing

   Data Label X ESADI neighbors are usually not connected directly by a
   physical link, but are always logically connected by a virtual link
   (see Section 2.1). There could be hundreds or thousands of ESADI
   RBridges on the virtual link.  There are only ESADI-LSP, ESADI-CSNP
   and ESADI-PSNP PDUs used in ESADI. In particular, there are no Hello
   or MTU PDUs because ESADI does not build a topology and does not do
   any routing.

   In IS-IS, PDU multicasting is normal on a local link and no effort is
   made to optimize to unicast because under the original conditions
   when IS-IS was designed (commonly a piece of multi-access Ethernet
   cable) any frame made the link busy for that frame time. But in ESADI
   what appears to be a simple multi-access link is generally a set of
   multi-hop distribution trees that may or may not be pruned. Thus,
   transmitting a multicast frame on such a tree can impose a
   substantially greater load than transmitting a unicast frame. This
   load may be justified if there are likely to be multiple listeners
   but may not be justified if there is only one recipient of interest.
   For this reason, under some circumstances, ESADI PDUs MAY be TRILL
   unicast if it is confirmed that the destination RBridge supports
   receiving unicast ESADI PDUs (see Section 6.1).

   To support unicasting of ESADI PDUs, Section 4.6.2.2 of [RFC6325] is
   replaced with the following:

   "4.6.2.2. TRILL ESADI Packets

      If M=1, the egress nickname designates the distribution tree.  The
      packet is forwarded as described in Section 4.6.2.5.  In addition,
      if the forwarding RBridge is (1) interested in the specified VLAN
      or Fine Grained Label, (2) implements the TRILL ESADI protocol,
      and (3) ESADI is enabled for that VLAN or Fine Grained Label, the
      inner frame is decapsulated and provided to that local ESADI
      protocol.

      If M=0 and the egress nickname is not that of the receiving
      RBridge, the packet is forwarded as for known unicast TRILL Data
      in Section 4.6.2.4. If M=0 and the egress nickname is that of the
      receiving RBridge and the receiving RBridge supports unicast ESADI
      PDUs, then the ESADI packet is decapsulated and processed if it
      meets the three numbered conditions in the paragraph above,
      otherwise it is discarded."

   The references to "4.6.2.2", "4.6.2.4", and "4.6.2.5" above refer to
   those sections in [RFC6325].

   Section 4.1 describes the sending of ESADI PDUs. Section 4.2 covers
   the receipt of ESADI PDUs.


H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 14]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


4.1 Sending of ESADI PDUs

   The MTU available to ESADI payloads is at least 24 bytes less than
   that available to TRILL IS-IS because of the additional fields
   required (2(TRILL Ethertype) + 6(TRILL Header) + 6(Inner.MacDA) +
   6(Inner.MacSA) + 4/8(Inner.VLAN/Inner.FGL) bytes). Thus the inner
   ESADI payload, starting with the Intradomain Routeing Protocol
   Discriminator byte, MUST NOT exceed Sz minus 24 for a VLAN ESADI
   instance or Sz minus 28 for an FGL ESDAI instance; however, if a
   larger payload is received, it is processed normally. (See [RFC6325]
   and [ClearCorrect] for discussions of Sz and MTU.)

   An ESADI instance does not transmit any ESADI PDUs if it has zero
   EASDI neighbors. When an ESADI instance sees that it has a new
   neighbor, its self-originated EASDI-LSP fragments are scheduled to be
   sent and MAY be unicast to that neighbor if the neighbor is
   announcing in its LSP that it supports unicast ESADI (see Section
   6.1). If all the other ESADI instances for the same Data Label send
   their self-originated ESADI-LSPs immediately, there may be a surge of
   traffic to that new neighbor. So the other ESADI instances should
   wait an interval of time before sending the ESADI-LSP to a new
   neighbor.  The interval time value is up to the device implementation
   and is subject to the usual IS-IS timing jitter. One suggestion is
   that the interval time can be assigned a random value with a range
   based on the ESADI instace DRB priority such ( 2 * (127 - priority) /
   128) seconds.

   If the ESADI instance believes it is DRB, it multicasts an ESADI-CSNP
   periodically (thrice per CSNP Time, see Section 6.1) to keep the link
   state database synchronized among its neighbors on the virtual link.
   After receiving an ESADI-PSNP PDU, the DRB will multicast the ESADI-
   LSPs requested by the ESADI-PSNP on the virtual link.

   The multi-hop TRILL multi-destination packet distribution with
   Reverse Path Forwarding Check will typically be less reliable than
   the single hop link-local LSP synchronization of TRILL IS-IS.
   Therefore, for LSP synchronization robustness, in addition to sending
   ESADI-CSNPs when it is DRB, an ESADI RBridge SHOULD also transmit an
   ESADI-CSNP for an ESADI instance if all of the following conditions
   are met:

   o  it sees one or more ESADI neighbors for that instance, and
   o  it does not believe it is DRB for the ESADI instance, and
   o  it has not received or sent an ESADI-CSNP PDUs for the instance
      for the CSNP Time (see Section 6.1) of the DRB.

   In the case of receiving an ESADI-LSP with a smaller sequence number
   than the copy stored in the local EASDI Link State Database the local
   ESADI instance will also schedule to multicast the stored copy.



H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 15]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   The format of a unicast ESADI packet is the format of TRILL ESADI
   packet, in Section 2 above, except as follows:

   o  On an Ethernet link, in the Outer Ethernet Header the Outer.MacDA
      is the unicast address of the next hop RBridge.

   o  In the TRILL header, the M bit is set to zero and the Egress
      Nickname is the nickname of the destination RBridge.




4.2 Receipt of ESADI PDUs

   Because ESADI adjacency is in terms of System ID, all IS-IS PDU
   acceptance tests that check that the PDU is from an adjacent system
   instead check that the System ID is that of an ESADI neighbor and do
   not check either the source Inner or Outer SNPA/MAC.

   Because all data reachable ESADI RBridges participating for Data
   Label X are adjacent, when RB1 receives an ESADI-CSNP from RB2 and
   detects that it has ESADI-LSPs that RB2 is missing, it sets the
   transmission flag only for its own ESADI-LSPs that RB2 is missing.
   Missing ESADI-LSPs originated by other ESADI RBridges will be
   detected by those other ESADI RBridges.

   When receiving an ESADI-PSNP PDU, if the local ESADI instance is DRB,
   the ESADI-LSP PDUs requested by the ESADI-PSNP will be multicast on
   the virtual link.

5. End Station Addresses




5.1 Learning Confidence Level

   The confidence level mechanism allows an RBridge campus manager to
   cause certain address learning sources to prevail over others. MAC
   address information learned through a registration protocol, such as
   [802.1X] with a cryptographically based EAP [RFC3748] method, might
   be considered more reliable than information learned through the mere
   observation of data frames.  When such authenticated learned address
   information is transmitted via the ESADI protocol, the use of
   authentication in the TRILL ESADI-LSP packets could make tampering
   with it in transit very difficult.  As a result, it might be
   reasonable to announce such authenticated information via the ESADI
   protocol with a high confidence, so it would be used in preference to
   any alternative learning from data observation.




5.2 Forgetting End Station Addresses

   The end station addresses learned through TRILL ESADI protocol should
   be forgotten through changes in ESADI-LSPs. The time out of the
   learned end station address is up to the originating RBridge that
   decides when to remove such information from its ESADI-LSPs (or up to
   ESADI protocol timeouts if the originating RBridge becomes
   inaccessible).

   If RBridge RBn participating in the TRILL ESADI protocol for Data
   Label X no longer wishes to participate in ESADI, it ceases to
   participate in ESADI by (1) clearing the ESADI participation bit in
   the appropriate Interested VLANs or Interested Lables sub-TLV and (2)
   sending a final ESADI-LSP nulling out its ESADI-LSP information.




5.3 Duplicate MAC Address

   With ESADI, it is possible to persistently see two occurances of the
   same MAC address with the same Data Label being advertised by two or
   more RBridges. The specification of how to handle this situation in
   [RFC6325] is updated by replacing the last sentence of the last
   paragraph of Section 4.2 of [RFC6325] as shown below to provide
   better traffic spreading while avoiding possible address flip-
   flopping.


H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 17]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   As background, assume some end station or set of end stations have
   two or more ports with the same MAC&VLAN with each port connected to
   different RBridges (RB1, RB2, ...) by separate links.  With ESADI,
   some other RBridge, RB0, can persistently see that MAC&VLAN connected
   to multiple RBridges. When RB0 ingresses a frame destined that
   MAC&VLAN, the current [RFC6325] text permits a wide range of
   behavior. In particular, it would permit RB0 to use some rule such as
   always send to the egress with the lowest System ID, which would put
   all of this traffic through one of the egress RBridges and one of the
   end station ports.  There would be no load spreading even if there
   were multiple different ingress RBridges and/or different MAC
   addresses. It also would also permit RB0 to send different traffic to
   different egresses by doing ECMP at a flow level, which would likely
   result in return traffic to RB0 from RB1, RB2, ... for the same
   MAC&VLAN. The resulting address flip-flopping could cause problems.
   This update to [RFC6325] avoids these potential difficulties by
   requiring RB0 to either (1) use only one egress for a particular
   MAC&VLAN but to select that egress pseudo-randomly based on the
   topology including MAC reachabilty or (2) if it will not be disturbed
   by the returning TRILL Data packets showing the same MAC&VLAN flip-
   flopping between different ingresses, it may use ECMP.  Assuming
   multiple ingress RBridges and/or multiple MAC addresses, stragegy 1
   should result in load spreading without address flip-floping while
   stragegy 2 will produce more uniform load spreading.

   OLD [RFC6325] text:
      "... If confidences are also tied between the duplicates, for
      consistency it is suggested that RB2 direct all such frames (or
      all such frames in the same ECMP flow) toward the same egress
      RBridge; however, the use of other policies will not cause a
      network problem since transit RBridges do not examine the
      Inner.MacDA for known unicast frames."

   NEW [RFC6325] text:
      "...

      If confidences are also tied between the duplicates then RB2 MUST
      adopt one of the following two strategies:

      1. In a pseudo-random way [RFC4086], select one of the egress
         RBridges that is least cost from RB2 and to which the
         destination MAC appears to be attached and send all traffic for
         the destination MAC and VLAN (or FGL) to that egress. This
         pseudo-random choice need only be changed when there is a
         change in campus topology or MAC attachment information. Such
         pseudo-random selection will, over a population of ingress
         RBridges, probabilisticly spread traffic over the possible
         egress RBridges. Reasonable inputs to the pseudo-random
         selection are the ingress RBridge System ID and/or nickname,
         the VLAN or FGL, the destination MAC address, and a vector of

         the RBridges with connectivity to that MAC and VLAN. There is
         no need for different RBridges to use the same pseudo-random
         function.

      2. If RB2 supports ECMP and will not be disturbed by return
         traffic from the same MAC and VLAN (or FGL) coming from
         different ingress RBridges, then it MAY send traffic over ECMP
         at the flow level to the egress RBridges that are least cost
         from RB2 and to which the destination MAC appears to be
         attached."

6. ESADI-LSP Contents

   The only PDUs used in ESADI are the Level 1 ESADI-LSP, ESADI-CSNP,
   and ESADI-PSNP PDUs. Currently, the contents of an ESADI-LSP consists
   of zero or more MAC Reachability TLVs, optionally an Authentication
   TLV, and exactly one ESADI parameter APPsub-TLV. Other data may be
   included in the future and, as in IS-IS, an ESADI instances ignores
   any TLVs or sub-TLVs it does not understand.

   This section specifies the format for the ESADI parameter data
   APPsub-TLV, gives the reference for the ESADI MAC Reachability TLV,
   and discusses default authentication configuration.

   For robustness, the payload for an ESADI-LSP number zero MUST NOT
   exceed 1470 minus 24 bytes in length (1446 bytes) if it has an
   Inner.VLAN or 1470 minus 28 bytes (1442 bytes) if it has an
   Inner.FGL. But if an ESADI-LSP number zero is received longer, it is
   still processed normally.




6.1 ESADI Parameter Data

   The figure below presents the format of the ESADI parameter data.
   This APPsub-TLV MUST be included in a TRILL GENINFO TLV in ESADI-LSP
   number zero. If it is missing from ESADI-LSP number zero or if ESADI-
   LSP number zero is not known, priority for the sending RBridge
   defaults to 0x40 and CSNP Time defaults to 30. If there is more than
   one occurrence in ESADI-LSP number zero, the first occurrence will be
   used. Occurrences of the ESADI parameter data APPsub-TLV in non-zero
   ESADI-LSP fragments are ignored.

   Length: Set to 2 to 255.

   R: A reserved bit that MUST be sent as zero and ignored on receipt.

   Priority: The Priority field gives the originating RBridge's priority
      for being DRB on the ESADI instance virtual link (see Section 2.1)
      for the Data Label in which the PDU containing the parameter data
      was sent. It is an unsigned seven-bit integer with larger
      magnitude indication higher priority.  It defaults to 0x40 for an
      RBridge participating in ESADI for which it has not been
      configured.

   CSNP Time: An unsigned byte that gives the amount of time in seconds
      during which the originating RBridge, if it is DRB on the ESADI
      virtual link, will send at least three EASDI-CSNP PDUs. It
      defaults to 30 seconds for an RBridge participating in ESADI for
      which it has not been configured.

   Flags: A byte of flags associated with the originating ESADI instance
      as follows:

                  0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7
               +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
               | UN|         Reserved          |
               +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+

         The UN flag indicates that the RBridge originating the ESADI-
         LSP including this ESADI Parameter Data will accept and
         properly process ESADI PDUs sent by TRILL unicast. The
         remaining bits are reserved for future use and MUST be sent as
         zero and ignored on receipt.

   Reserved for future expansion: Future versions of the ESADI
      Parameters APPsub-TLV may have additional information. A receiving
      ESADI RBridge ignores any additional data here unless it
      implements such future expansion(s).




6.2 MAC Reachability TLV

   The primary information in TRILL ESADI-LSP PDUs consists of MAC
   Reachability (MAC-RI) TLVs as specified in [RFC6165].  These TLVs
   contain one or more unicast MAC addresses of end stations that are
   both on a port and in a VLAN for which the originating RBridge is
   appointed forwarder, along with the one octet unsigned Confidence in
   this information with a value in the range 0-254. If such a TLV is
   received with a confidence of 255, it is treated as if the confidence
   was 254. (This is to assure that any received address information can


H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 21]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   be overridden by local address information statically configured with
   a Confidence of 255.)

   The TLVs in TRILL ESADI PDUs, including the MAC-RI TLV, MUST NOT
   contain the Data Label ID. If a Data Label ID is present in the MAC-
   RI TLV, it is ignored. In the encapsulated TRILL ESADI packet, only
   the Inner.VLAN or Inner.FGL tag indicates the Data Label to which the
   ESADI-LSP applies.




6.3 Default Authentication

   The Authentication TLV may be included in ESADI PDUs. The default for
   ESADI PDU Authentication is based on the state of TRILL IS-IS shared
   secret authentication for LSP PDUs. If TRILL IS-IS authentication and
   ESADI are implemented at a TRILL switch, then ESADI MUST be able to
   use the authentication algorithms implemented for TRILL IS-IS and
   implement the keying material derivation function given below. If
   ESADI authentication has been configured, that configuration is not
   restricted by the configuration of TRILL IS-IS security.

   If TRILL IS-IS authentication is not in effect for LSP PDUs
   originated by a TRILL switch then, by default, ESADI PDUs originated
   by that TRILL switch are also unsecured.

   If such IS-IS LSP PDU authentication is in effect at a TRILL switch
   then, unless configured otherwise, ESADI PDUs sent by that switch
   MUST use the same algorithm in their Authentication TLVs.  The ESADI
   authentication keying material used is derived from the IS-IS LSP
   shared secret keying material as detailed below. However, such
   authentication MAY be configured to use some other keying material.

        HMAC-SHA256 ( "TRILL ESADI", IS-IS-LSP-shared-key )

   In the above HMAC-SHA256 is as described in [FIPS180] [RFC6234] and
   "TRILL ESADI" is the eleven byte US ASCII [ASCII] string indicated.
   IS-IS-LSP-shared-key is secret keying material being used by the
   originating TRILL switch for IS-IS LSP authentication.

7. IANA Considerations

   IANA allocation and registry considerations are given below.




7.1 ESADI Participation and Capability Flags

   IANA is requested to allocate bit TBD [3 recommended] as the "ESADI
   Participation" bit in the Interested VLANs sub-TLV and the Interested
   Labels sub-TLVs [rfc6326bis]. If The ESADI Participation bit is a
   one, it indicates that the originating RBridge is participating in
   ESADI for the indicated VLAN(s) or FGL(s). In addition, IANA is

7.2 TRILL GENINFO TLV

   IANA is requested to allocate an IS-IS Application Identifier under
   the Generic Information TLV (#251) for TRILL [RFC6823] and to create
   a subregistry in the TRILL Parameters Registry for "TRILL APPsub-TLVs
   under IS-IS TLV #251 Application Identifier #TBD".  The initial
   contents of this subregistry are as follows:

             Type   Name                Reference
            ------ --------            -----------
                0  Reserved            <this RFC>
                1  ESADI-PARAM         <this RFC>
            2-254  Available           <this RFC>
              255  Reserved            <this RFC>

   TRILL APPsub-TLV Types 2 through 254 are available for allocation by
   IETF Review. The RFC causing such an allocation will also include a
   discussion of security issues and of the rate of change of the
   information being advertised. TRILL APPsub-TLVs MUST NOT alter basic
   IS-IS protocol operation including the establishment of TRILL IS-IS
   adjacencies, the IS-IS update process, and the decision process for
   TRILL IS-IS [IS-IS] [RFC1195] [RFC6327]. The TRILL Generic
   Information TLV MUST NOT be used in an IS-IS instance zero [RFC6822].

   The V, I, D, and S flags in the initial flags byte of a TRILL Generic
   Information TLV have the meanings specified in [RFC6823] but are not
   currently used as TRILL operates as a Level 1 IS-IS area and no
   semantics is hereby assigned to the inclusion of an IPv4 and/or IPv6
   address via the I and V flags. Thus these flags MUST be zero;
   however, use of multi-level IS-IS is an obvious extension for TRILL


H. Zhai, et al                                                 [Page 24]


INTERNET-DRAFT                                              TRILL: ESADI


   [MultiLevel] and future IETF Standards Actions may update or obsolete
   this specification to provide for the use of any or all of these
   flags in the TRILL GENINFO TLV.

   The ESADI Parameters information, for which TRILL APPsub-TLV 1 is
   hereby assigned, is compact and slow changing (see Section 6.1).

   For Security Considerations related to ESADI and the ESADI parameters
   APPsub-TLV, see Section 8.
