IGMPv3/MLDv2 Message Extension
draft-venaas-pim-igmp-mld-extension-00
Abstract
IGMP and MLD protocols are extensible, but no extensions have been
defined so far. This document provides a well-defined way of
extending IGMP and MLD, including a new extension type to distinguish
between different extensions. This document also defines an
extension for use with IGMP and MLD over BIER, that allows for
identifying the sender. This will in turn enable MLD (resp. IGMP)
to be used in the BIER multicast flow overlay.

1. Introduction
In this document, we describe a generic method to extend IGMPv3
[RFC3376] and MLDv2 [RFC3810] messages to accommodate information
other than what is contained in the current message formats. This is
done by introducing an extension-type field in the message formats to
indicate the application for which the extension is done. This will
be followed by the actual value of the extension.
Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER [RFC8279]) defines a new
architecture for optimal forwarding of multicast packets through a
multicast domain without requiring a protocol for explicitly bulding
multicast distribution trees while obviating the need for
intermediate nodes to maintain any per-flow state. Forwarding in the
BIER network is accomplished by having ingress routers construct a
bit mask indicating the set of egress routers in the BIER domain
interested in receiving the packet.
New technologies (such as BIER) can use MLD (resp. IGMP) as an
overlay protocol, in order to collect the ingress and egress nodes
for multicast flows in a multicast domain (such as a BIER domain)
[I-D.ietf-bier-mld]. That draft makes use of an extension to IGMP/
MLD, defined in this document, to have additional info identifying
the BIER sender of the message. This allows the IGMP/MLD overlay to
know exactly who is interested in receiving flows. It can
potentially also be used for other purposes such as logging to

capture information regarding the sender of the message. The
extension will be part of additional data as mentioned in [RFC3810]
Section 5.1.12 (resp. [RFC3376] Section 4.1.10) for query messages
and [RFC3810] Section 5.2.12 (resp. [RFC3376] Section 4.2.11) for
report messages.
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. Proposed MLD/IGMP Extension
The proposed MLD (resp. IGMP) extension for BIER will contain the
same information as the PTA tunnel identifier in [RFC8556] and is
shown in Figure 1. Note that, as defined in the MLD (resp. IGMP),
existing implementations are supposed to ignore this additional data.

Figure 1: MLD/IGMP Extension Data for BIER
o Extension Type: The first octet will introduce an IGMP/MLD
extension type for BIER. This would mean that if we need to
extend MLD (resp. IGMP) messages for other purposes, the type can
tell us what the extension represents. What follows is the
information needed for BIER overlay. For BIER the value here will
be as assigned by IANA.
o Sub-domain-id: The second field is a single octet, containing a
BIER sub-domain-id (see [[RFC8279]]). This indicates the BIER
sub-domain of the router originating the message.

o BFR-id: The next field is a two-octet field containing the BFR-id,
in the specified sub-domain, of the router originating the
message.
o BFR-prefix: The last field is the BFR-prefix (see [[RFC8279]]) of
the router that is originating the message. The BFR-prefix will
either be a /32 IPv4 address or a /128 IPv6 address.

4. Security Considerations
This document extends MLD (resp. IGMP) message formats for a BIER
overlay. As such, there is no impact on security or changes to the
considerations in [RFC3810] and [RFC3376].
5. IANA Considerations
This document requests that IANA assign a new registry entry for the
MLD (resp. IGMP) extension-types.
