1. Introduction
[RFC9262] introduces Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) Traffic/
Tree Engineering (BIER-TE). It is an architecture for per-packet
stateless explicit point to multipoint (P2MP) multicast path/tree.
There are three types of BitPositions (BPs) in a BIER-TE domain: link
BitPosition (BP), routed BP and localdecap BP. A link BP is a BP
configured on a link from Bit-Forwarding Router (BFR) X to BFR Y for
a forward connected adjacency from X to Y. A routed BP is a BP
configured on BFR X for a forward routed adjacency from X to a remote
BFR Z not directly connected to X. A localdecap BP is a BP
configured on a BFR.
[RFC8401] describes IS-IS Extensions for distributing the BFR
identifier (BFR-id) configured on a BFR. This document specifies IS-
IS extensions for distributing the BitPositions configured a BFR in a
BIER-TE domain. The BitPositions distributed may be used by a BFR as
a Point of Local Repair (PLR) for Fast-ReRoute (FRR).

2. Extensions to IS-IS
This section describes protocol extensions to IS-IS for distributing
the BitPositions configured on a BFR in a BIER-TE domain.
2.1. Link BitPosition
An Extended IS Reachability TLV (Type 22) defined in [RFC5305] may
contain Sub-TLVs (such as those for TE) that apply to a link/
interface to a neighbor. To encode multiple links or interfaces to
neighbors, the structure inside TLV is repeated.
MT Intermediate Systems TLV (Type 222) defined in [RFC5120] may
contain Sub-TLVs (such as those for TE) that apply to a link/
interface. It is aligned with Extended IS Reachability TLV (Type 22)
beside an additional two bytes in front at the beginning of the TLV
for MT-ID.
Link-BP Sub-TLV of the following format is defined and used in
Extended IS Reachability TLV (Type 22) and/or MT Intermediate Systems
TLV (Type 222) to advertise a link BP.
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: Link-BP Sub-TLV
Type: TBD1 is to be assigned by IANA.
Length: Variable, dependent on Sub-Sub-TLVs.
BAR, IPA and sub-domain-id: They are defined in Section 6.1 of
[RFC8401].
BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition locally
configured on the link/interface to an Intermediate System
neighbor.
DisEndBitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition of the

connection on the designated Intermediate Systems (Dis) end.
This field exists when the neighbor is a pseudonode. If the
neighbor is not a pseudonode, this field MUST NOT exist. The
DisEndBitPosition may be configured on the link/interface to a
transit network (i.e., broadcast link or say LAN) as described
in [I-D.chen-bier-te-lan].
No Sub-Sub-TLVs are currently defined.
2.2. Routed and Localdecap BitPositions
A Sub-TLV, called Node BPs Sub-TLV, is defined and carried within the
TLVs 235, 237 [RFC5120], 135 [RFC5305], or 236 [RFC5308]. It
contains Sub-Sub-TLVs. Two types of Sub-Sub-TLVs are defined. One
is for a Routed BitPosition and the other for a Localdecap
BitPosition. The Node BPs Sub-TLV has the following format:
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 2: Node BPs Sub-TLV
Type: TBD2 is to be assigned by IANA.
Length: Variable.
BAR, IPA and sub-domain-id: They are defined in Section 6.1 of
[RFC8401].
Sub-Sub-TLVs: They are Routed-BP Sub-Sub-TLVs for Routed BPs and/or
Localdecap-BP Sub-Sub-TLV for Localdecap BP.
The Routed-BP Sub-Sub-TLV has the following format:
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 3: Routed-BP Sub-Sub-TLV
Type: 1 is the type for routed BP.
Length: It is 4.
BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the BitPosition configured on
a BFR for a forward routed adjacency to a remote BFR.
BFR-id: A 2-octet field encoding the BFR-id of the remote BFR.
The Localdecap-BP Sub-Sub-TLV has the following format:
0 1 2 3

Figure 4: Localdecap-BP Sub-Sub-TLV
Type: 2 is the type for localdecap BP.
Length: It is 2.
BitPosition: A 2-octet field encoding the localdecap BitPosition
configured on a BFR.
3. Security Considerations
Protocol extensions defined in this document do not affect the IS-IS
security.
4. IANA Considerations
Under "IS-IS Sub-TLVs for TLVs Advertising Neighbor Information"
registry, IANA is requested to assign a new Sub-TLV Type for Link BP
as follows:
+=======+=============+==+==+==+===+===+===+=============+
