Susan Hares:

This draft under this usage case
1) Goes against the RFC 4456 requirement for a full distribution of
routes between Route Reflectors in IBGP mesh
2) specifies transitive optional Path Attribute (D-PATH) without an
Open Capability limitation, and
3) specifies changes to RFC4271 without an open Capability limitation.

Jorge:

  • discussion among authros are in progress
  • issues which were raised being already addressed for safi-1 and
    authors would work with chairs to make progress.

  • new co-author added
  • more cases added from previous version
  • WG adoption requested
  • Ketan : is this expansion for all AFI/SAFI ?
  • Gerg : yes, this is to make more generic. using existing attributes
    but procedures are changed.
  • Ketan : this is optional transitive, there have been discussion in
    IDR about this. it may be good to check in IDR to prevent
    information being leaked.
  • Greg : will take this input and take feedback from IED
  • Jeffery : Ketan points are correct. IDR general practice is to
    provide detail about how attributes can lead to trouble. Optional
    transitive may be wrong way to do it with security concern.
  • Greg : to mitigate security issue is to use source IP so that
    reflector can verify it.
  • Gyan : is this for EVPN or L3VPN and mVPN as well ? it may be good
    to say its specific to IP-VPN.
  • Greg : clarification would be added .
  • Ketan : follow up on Jeff comment, if putting security considiration
    is good enough.
