	Title           : IPv4 and IPv6 Infrastructure Addresses in BGP Updates fo=
r Multicast VPN
	Author(s)       : Rahul Aggarwal
                          Eric C. Rosen
	Filename        : draft-ietf-l3vpn-mvpn-infra-addrs-05.txt
	Pages           : 10
	Date            : 2011-07-06

   To provide Multicast VPN (MVPN) service, Provider Edge routers
   originate BGP Update messages that carry Multicast-VPN (&quot;MCAST-VPN&=
quot;)
   BGP routes; they also originate unicast VPN routes that carry MVPN-
   specific attributes.  These routes encode addresses from the
   customer&#39;s address space, as well as addresses from the provider&#39=
;s
   address space.  These two address spaces are independent, and the
   address family (IPv4 or IPv6) of the two spaces may or may not be the
   same.  These routes always contain an &quot;address family&quot; field t=
hat
   specifies whether the customer addresses are IPv4 addresses or
   whether they are IPv6 addresses.  However, there is no field that
   explicitly specifies the address family of the provider addresses.
   To ensure interoperability, this document specifies that provider
   IPv4 addresses are always encoded in these update messages as four-
   octet addresses, and that the distinction between IPv4 and IPv6 is
   signaled solely by the length of the address field.  Specific cases
   are explained in detail.  This document updates draft-ietf-
   l3vpn-2547bis-mcast-bgp-08.txt.

   Many Service Providers (SPs) offer Virtual Private Network (VPN)
   services to their customers using a technique in which Customer Edge
   (CE) routers are routing peers of Provider Edge (PE) routers.  The
   Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is used to distribute the customer&#39;s
   routes across the provider&#39;s IP backbone network, and Multiprotocol
   Label Switching (MPLS) is used to tunnel customer packets across the
   provider&#39;s backbone.  This is known as a &quot;BGP/MPLS IP VPN&quot;.
   Originally only IPv4 was supported and it was later extended to
   support IPv6 VPNs as well.  Extensions were later added for the
   support of the Open Shortest Path First protocol version 2 (OSPFv2)
   as a PE-CE routing protocol for the IPv4 VPNs.  This document extends
   those specifications to support OSPF version 3 (OSPFv3) as a PE-CE
   routing protocol.  The OSPFv3 PE-CE functionality is identical to
   that of OSPFv2 except for the differences described in this document.

- 'Internal BGP as Provider/Customer Edge Protocol for BGP/MPLS IP
   Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)'
  (draft-ietf-l3vpn-ibgp-08.txt) as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Layer 3 Virtual Private Networks
Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel.

Technical Summary

In current RFC4364 deployments, when BGP is used as 
the PE-CE routing protocol, BGP peering sessions are 
typically configured as an external peering between the
VPN provider AS and the customer network AS.

While this technique works well in situations where there 
are no BGP routing exchanges between the client network 
and other networks, it does have drawbacks for customer 
networks that use BGP internally for purposes other than
interaction between CE and PE routers.

In order to make the usage of BGP/MPLS VPN services 
as transparent as possible to any external interaction, 
it is desirable to define a mechanism by which PE-CE 
routers can exchange BGP routes by means other than 
external BGP.

This document specifies a means to use Internal 
BGP for the purpose of exchanging PE-CE routes.

Working Group Summary

This document is a product of L3VPN WG. The document 
underwent WG Last Call in both the L3VPN and IDR WGs.

Document Quality

The L3VPN WG  is aware of two implementations.

   specific attributes.  These routes encode addresses from the
   customer's address space, as well as addresses from the provider's
   address space.  These two address spaces are independent, and the
   address family (IPv4 or IPv6) of the two spaces may or may not be the
   same.  These routes always contain an "address family" field that
   specifies whether the customer addresses are IPv4 addresses or
   whether they are IPv6 addresses.  However, there is no field that
   explicitly specifies the address family of the provider addresses.
   To ensure interoperability, this document specifies that provider
   IPv4 addresses are always encoded in these update messages as four-
   octet addresses, and that the distinction between IPv4 and IPv6 is
   signaled solely by the length of the address field.  Specific cases
   are explained in detail.

Working Group Summary

Hi Nagendra,

Thanks a lot for your comments, and please see replies with [Jie]

<snip>
A. If BGP speaker A is originator of the labeled IPv4 (or IPv6)
   route, A sets its BGP LSP Path MTU to the maximal value, advertises
   the labeled IPv4 (or IPv6) route with the MTU Extended Community to
   its BGP Peer (its upstream BGP LSR).

1.  Any reason to specify the MTU with maximal value on egress side?. I understand RFC3988 have the same behavior, but I am not aware of any reason. Per my understanding, setting the MTU value as the link MTU to the respective FEC value will help avoid IP fragmentation upto egress side. For example, if on egress PE, the link MTU is 1500 while the calculated Path MTU (based on this draft) is 9000, it still needs IP fragmentation on egress side.

[Jie] Actually this specification is for scenarios where the prefix advertised with label belongs to the egress node. When it's not the case, the MTU would be set to the link MTU to the prefix. I guess you are talking about advertising VPN routes, right? Yes in this case the Path MTU should be to a specific VPN prefix. This specification would be modified in next revision. 

2. After advertising the UPDATE to neighbor what will be the action when the MTU changes?.

[Jie] when the MTU changes, similar to other path attribute changes, update would be sent the the peer. In order to avoid unnecessary route flapping, we would define rules like this:
If the MTU decreases, the update SHOULD be sent to peer immediately to avoid possible packet discard.
If the MTU increases, the update SHOULD be hold down for a while, probably be sent when there is also change of other attributes.

3. Since we already have RFC3988 that helps calculate MTU with LDP, Am I assuming right that this ID helps in Inter-AS scenarios (Option B) or scenarios where RSVP is used for LSP establishment?. Should we specify that in ID?.

[Jie] As I know, RSVP also defines its mechanism of MTU discovery. Thus this draft helps in scenarios where end-to-end LSP is established with labeled BGP. The typical use cases include inter-AS VPN Option C, Seamless MPLS and Carrier's Carrier. And Option B may also be a use case. Next revision will describe the scenarios. 

Discussion about other possible use cases would be appreciated.

Many thanks,
Jie

>    Proper functioning of [RFC1191] path Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU)
>    discovery requires that IP routers have knowledge of the MTU for each
>    link to which they are connected.  As MPLS progresses, [RFC3988]
>    specifies some extensions to LDP in support of LDP LSP MTU discovery.
>    For the LSP created using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) [RFC3107], it

Hi,

=20

I was reading this draft and can you please let me know the below,

=20

1.       From ID, I understood that V-spoke PE will be advertising a
default route to CE site. Am I missing any statement about what will be
advertised to CE sites which are connected to V-Hub PE?. Will it
advertise all prefixes from other hub and spoke PEs or just default
route?.

2.       Since V-spoke will be advertising default route to its
connected CE site, Wont it result in undesired traffic from CE site
traversing over SP cloud and get dropped at Hub PE device?. Do you have
any recommendation/way to avoid it?.

3.       I understood that any V-spoke PE can advertise all prefixes to
CE site instead of default route on a need basis (From Section 8
"Further refinements") . I believe it should be made mandatory for CE
which has internet gateway connected. So the deployment I believe should
be that any PE (V-hub or V-spoke) to which Internet GW site is connected
SHOULD use methodology specified in Section 8. In other words, PE if
receives default route from a CE site, should advertise all prefixes
from other site to that CE and NOT the VPN-IP default route.

Regards,

Nagendra
