1. Introduction

[S-BFD]

[RFC7880] defines a simplified mechanism to use for using Bidirectional
Forwarding Detection (BFD)[RFC5880]. (BFD) [RFC5880]. This mechanism depends on
network nodes knowing the BFD discriminators which Discriminators that each node in the
network has reserved for this purpose. Use The use of the Intermediate
System to Intermediate System (IS-IS)[IS-IS] (IS-IS) [IS-IS] protocol is one
possible means of advertising these discriminators.

2. Encoding Format

The IS-IS Router CAPABILITY TLV as defined in [RFC4971] will be used
to advertise S-BFD discriminators. Seamless BFD (S-BFD) Discriminators. A new sub-TLV is
defined as described below. S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLVs are
formatted as specified in [RFC5305].

Inclusion

The inclusion of the an S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLV in a Router Capability
CAPABILITY TLV is optional. Multiple S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLVs
MAY be advertised by an IS. When multiple S-BFD discriminators are
advertised how How a given discriminator is mapped to a
specific use case when multiple S-BFD Discriminators are advertised
is out of scope for this document.

S-BFD discriminator Discriminator advertisements MAY be flooded within an area or
throughout the domain domain, using the procedures specified in [RFC4971].
The appropriate flooding scope depends on the intended use of S-BFD.
If S-BFD use usage will be exclusively within a Level-1 area area, then area
scope is appropriate. If S-BFD usage will span different L1 areas Level-1
areas, then domain scope is appropriate.

3. IANA Considerations

This document requires the definition of

IANA has added a new sub-TLV in the Sub-
TLVs "Sub-TLVs for TLV 242 242" registry.
The value written below registration is a suggested
value subject to assignment by IANA. as follows:

Value Description
---- ---------------------
----- --------------------
20 S-BFD Discriminators

4. Security Considerations

Security concerns for IS-IS are addressed in [IS-IS], [RFC5304], and
[RFC5310]. Introduction of the The new S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLV
introduces no does not introduce
any new security risks for IS-IS.

Advertisement of

Advertising the S-BFD discriminators does make Discriminators makes it possible for attackers
to initiate S-BFD sessions using the advertised information. The
vulnerabilities this poses and how to mitigate them are discussed in the Security Considerations section of [S-BFD].
[RFC7880].
