Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) Extensions for
IPv6 Segment Routing
draft-ietf-pce-segment-routing-ipv6-25
Abstract
Segment Routing (SR) can be used to steer packets through a network
using the IPv6 or MPLS data plane, employing the source routing
paradigm.
A Segment Routed
An SR Path can be derived from a variety of mechanisms, including an
IGP Shortest Path Tree (SPT), explicit configuration, or a Path
Computation Element(PCE). Element (PCE).
Since SR can be applied to both MPLS and IPv6 data-planes, data planes, a PCE
should be able to compute an SR Path for both MPLS and IPv6 data- data
planes. The Path Computation Element communication Communication Protocol (PCEP)
extension and mechanisms to support SR-MPLS have been defined. This
document outlines the necessary extensions to support SR for the IPv6
data-plane
data plane within PCEP.

1. Introduction
As defined in [RFC8402], Segment Routing (SR) architecture allows the
source node to steer a packet through a path indicated by an ordered
list of instructions, called segments. "segments". A segment can represent any
instruction, topological or service-based, service based, and it can have a semantic
local to an SR node or global within an SR domain.
[RFC5440] describes Path Computation Element communication Communication Protocol
(PCEP) for communication between a Path Computation Client (PCC) and
a PCE or between a pair of PCEs. A PCE or a PCC operating as a PCE
(in a hierarchical PCE environment) computes paths for MPLS Traffic
Engineering LSPs Label Switched Paths (MPLS-TE LSPs) based on various
constraints and optimization criteria.
[RFC8231] specifies extensions to PCEP that allow a stateful PCE to
compute and recommend network paths in compliance with [RFC4657] and
defines objects and TLVs for MPLS-TE LSPs. Stateful PCEP extensions
provide synchronization of LSP state between a PCC and a PCE or
between a pair of PCEs, delegation of LSP control, reporting of LSP
state from a PCC to a PCE, and controlling the setup and path routing
of an LSP from a PCE to a PCC. Stateful PCEP extensions are intended
for an operational model in which LSPs are configured on the PCC, and
control over them is delegated to the PCE.
A mechanism to dynamically initiate LSPs on a PCC based on the
requests from a stateful PCE or a controller using stateful PCE is
specified in [RFC8281]. As per [RFC8664], it is possible to use a
stateful PCE for computing one or more SR-TE paths taking into
account various constraints and objective functions. Once a path is
computed, the stateful PCE can initiate an SR-TE path on a PCC using
PCEP extensions specified in [RFC8281] and the SR-specific PCEP
extensions specified in [RFC8664].
[RFC8664] specifies PCEP extensions for supporting a an SR-TE LSP for
the MPLS data-plane. data plane. This document extends [RFC8664] to support SR
for the IPv6 data-plane. data plane. Additionally, using procedures described in
this document, a PCC can request an SRv6 path from either a stateful
or stateless PCE. This specification relies on the PATH-SETUP-TYPE
TLV and procedures specified in [RFC8408].
This specification provides a mechanism for a network controller
(acting as a PCE) to instantiate candidate paths for an SR Policy
onto a head-end node (acting as a PCC) using PCEP. For more
information on the SR Policy Architecture, architecture, see [RFC9256] [RFC9256], which
applies to both SR-MPLS and SRv6.
1.1. Requirements Language
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.
2. Terminology
This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC5440]: PCC,
PCE, PCEP, PCEP Peer.
This document uses the following terms defined in [RFC8051]: Stateful
PCE, Delegation.
Further, the following terms are used in the document, document:
MSD: Maximum SID Depth. Depth
PST: Path Setup Type. Type
SR: Segment Routing. Routing
SID: Segment Identifier. Identifier
SRv6: Segment Routing over IPv6 data-plane. data plane
SRH: IPv6 Segment Routing Header [RFC8754]. [RFC8754]
SRv6 Path: path: IPv6 Segment List (List (A list of IPv6 SIDs representing a
path in IPv6 SR domain in the context of this document) document.)
Further, note that the term LSP "LSP" used in the PCEP specifications, specifications
would be equivalent to an SRv6 Path path (represented as a list of SRv6
segments) in the context of supporting SRv6 in PCEP.
3. Overview of PCEP Operation in SRv6 Networks
Basic operations for PCEP speakers are built on [RFC8664].
In PCEP messages, route information is carried in the Explicit Route
Object (ERO), which consists of a sequence of subobjects. [RFC8664]
defined a new Explicit Route Object (ERO) ERO subobject denoted by "SR-
ERO "SR-ERO subobject" that is
capable of carrying a SID as well as the identity of the node/adjacency node/
adjacency represented by the SID for SR-MPLS. SR-capable PCEP
speakers can generate and/or process such an ERO subobject. An ERO
containing SR-ERO subobjects can be included in the PCEP Path
Computation Reply (PCRep) message defined in [RFC5440], the PCEP LSP
Initiate Request message (PCInitiate) defined in [RFC8281], as well
as in the PCEP LSP Update Request (PCUpd) and PCEP LSP State Report
(PCRpt) messages defined in [RFC8231]. [RFC8664] also defines a new
Reported Route Object(RRO) Object (RRO), called SR-RRO "SR-RRO", to represent the SID
list that was applied by the PCC, that is, which is the actual path taken by
the LSP in SR-MPLS network.
The SRv6 Paths paths computed by a PCE can be represented as an ordered
list of SRv6 segments. This document defines new subobjects
"SRv6-ERO" and "SRv6-RRO" in the ERO and the RRO respectively RRO, respectively, to
carry the SRv6 SID. SRv6-capable PCEP speakers MUST be able to
generate and/or process these subobjects.
When a PCEP session between a PCC and a PCE is established, both PCEP
speakers exchange their capabilities to indicate their ability to
support SRv6 specific SRv6-specific functionality as described in Section 4.1.1.
In summary, this document, document defines:
* Defines a new PCEP capability for SRv6. SRv6,
* Defines a new subobject SRv6-ERO in ERO. ERO,
* Defines a new subobject SRv6-RRO in RRO. RRO, and
* Defines a new path setup Path Setup type (PST) [RFC8408] [RFC8408], carried in the PATH-
SETUP-TYPE TLV PATH-SETUP-
TYPE and the PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV. TLVs.
3.1. Operation Overview
In SR networks, an SR source node [RFC8754] steers a packet into an
SR Policy resulting in a segment list.
When SR leverages the IPv6 data-plane (i.e. data plane (i.e., SRv6), the PCEP
procedures and mechanisms are extended in this document.
This document describes the extension to support SRv6 in PCEP. A PCC
or PCE indicates its ability to support SRv6 during the PCEP session
Initialization Phase
initialization phase via a new SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV (see
details in Section 4.1.1).
3.2. SRv6-Specific PCEP Message Extensions
As defined in [RFC5440], a PCEP message consists of a common header
followed by a variable length variable-length body made up of mandatory and/or
optional objects. This document does not require any changes in the
format of PCReq and PCRep messages specified in [RFC5440], the
PCInitiate message specified in [RFC8281], and or PCRpt and PCUpd
messages specified in [RFC8231]. However, PCEP messages pertaining
to SRv6 MUST include PATH-SETUP-TYPE TLV in the RP (Request Parameters) Request Parameters
(RP) or
SRP (Stateful Stateful PCE Request Parameters) Parameters (SRP) object to clearly
identify that SRv6 is intended.
4. Object Formats
4.1. The OPEN Object
4.1.1. The SRv6 PCE Capability sub-TLV
This document defines a new Path Setup Type (PST) [RFC8408] for SRv6,
as follows.
* PST = 3 : follows:
PST=3: Path is setup set up using SRv6.
A PCEP speaker indicates its support of the function described in
this document by sending a PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV in the OPEN
object with this new PST "3" (value 3) included in the PST list.
This document also defines the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV. PCEP
speakers use this sub-TLV to exchange information about their SRv6
capability. If a PCEP speaker includes PST=3 in the PST List list of the
PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV TLV, then it MUST also include the SRv6-
PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV inside the PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV.
For further error handling, please see Section 5.
The format of the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV is shown in the
following figure. Figure 1.

Figure 1: SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV format Sub-TLV Format
The code point for the TLV type is 27 27, and the format is compliant
with the PCEP TLV format defined in [RFC5440]. That is, the sub-TLV
is composed of 2 octets for the type, 2 octets specifying the length,
and a Value field. The Type field when When set to 27 27, the Type field identifies the
SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV sub-TLV, and the presence of the sub-TLV
indicates the support for the SRv6 paths in PCEP. The Length field
defines the length of the value portion in octets. The sub-TLV is
padded to 4-octet alignment, and padding is not included in the
Length field. The (MSD-Type,MSD-Value) pairs are OPTIONAL. The
number of (MSD-
Type,MSD-Value) (MSD-Type,MSD-Value) pairs can be determined from by the Length
field of the TLV.
The value comprises of - is comprised of:
* Reserved: 2 octet, octets; this field MUST be set to 0 on transmission, transmission
and ignored on receipt.
* Flags: 2 octet, octets; one bit is currently assigned in this document. Section 9.6 8.6
- N bit (bit position 14): A PCC sets this flag bit to 1 to
indicate that it is capable of resolving a Node or Adjacency
Identifier (NAI) to an SRv6-SID.
- Unassigned bits MUST be set to 0 on transmission and ignored on
receipt
* A pair of (MSD-Type, MSD-Value): (MSD-Type,MSD-Value): Where MSD-Type (1 octet) is as per
the IGP MSD Type registry created by [RFC8491] and populated with
SRv6 MSD types as per [RFC9352]; [RFC9352], and where MSD-Value (1 octet) is
as per [RFC8491].
The SRv6 MSD information advertised via SRv6-PCE-Capability sub-TLV
conveys the SRv6 capabilities of the PCEP speaker alone. However,
when it comes to the computation of an SR Policy for the SRv6 data- data
plane, the SRv6 MSD capabilities of all the intermediate SRv6 Endpoint
node as well as and the tail-end node also need to be considered to ensure those
midpoints are able to correctly process their segments and for the
tail-end to dispose of the SRv6 encapsulation. The SRv6 MSD
capabilities of other nodes might be learned as part of the topology
information via BGP-LS[RFC9514] the Border Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS)
[RFC9514] or via PCEP if the PCE also happens to have PCEP sessions to
with those nodes.
It is recommended that the SRv6 MSD information be not be included in
the SRv6-PCE-Capability sub-TLV in deployments where the PCE is able
to obtain this via IGP/BGP-LS as part of the topology information.
4.2. The RP/SRP Object
This document defines a new Path Setup Type (PST=3) for SRv6. In
order to indicate that the path is for SRv6, any RP or SRP object
MUST include the PATH-SETUP-TYPE TLV as specified in [RFC8408], where
PST is set to 3.
4.3. ERO
In order to support SRv6, a new "SRv6-ERO" subobject is defined for
inclusion in the ERO.
4.3.1. SRv6-ERO Subobject
An SRv6-ERO subobject is formatted as shown in the following figure. Figure 2.

Figure 2: SRv6-ERO Subobject Format
The fields in the SRv6-ERO subobject are as follows:
* The 'L' Flag: "L" flag: Indicates whether the subobject represents a loose-hop loose
hop (see [RFC3209]). If this flag is set to zero, a PCC MUST NOT
overwrite the SID value present in the SRv6-ERO subobject.
Otherwise, a PCC MAY expand or replace one or more SID values in
the received SRv6-ERO based on its local policy.
* Type: indicates Indicates the content of the subobject, i.e. i.e., when the field
is set to 40, the suboject subobject is an SRv6-ERO subobject representing
an SRv6 SID.
* Length: Contains the total length of the subobject in octets. The
Length MUST be at least 24, 24 and MUST be a multiple of 4. An
SRv6-ERO subobject MUST contain at least one of an SRv6-SID or an
NAI. The S and F bit bits in the Flags field indicates whether the
SRv6-SID or NAI fields are absent.
* NAI Type (NT): Indicates the type and format of the NAI contained
in the object body, if any is are present. If the F bit is set to
one (see
below) below), then the NT field has no meaning and MUST be
ignored by the receiver. This document creates a new PCEP
SRv6-ERO NAI Types registry in Section 9.2 8.2 and allocates the
following values. values:
- If NT value is 0, the NAI MUST NOT be included.
- When NT value is 2, the NAI is as per the 'IPv6 Node ID' "IPv6 node ID" format
defined in [RFC8664], which specifies an IPv6 address. This is
used to identify the owner of the SRv6 Identifier. This is
optional, as the LOC (the locator portion) of the SRv6 SID
serves a similar purpose (when present).
- When NT value is 4, the NAI is as per the 'IPv6 Adjacency' "IPv6 adjacency"
format defined in [RFC8664], which specify a pair of IPv6
addresses. This is used to identify the IPv6 Adjacency adjacency and
used with the SRv6 Adj-SID.
- When NT value is 6, the NAI is as per the 'link-local "link-local IPv6
addresses'
addresses" format defined in [RFC8664], which specify a pair of
(global IPv6 address, interface ID) tuples. It is used to
identify the IPv6 Adjacency adjacency and used with the SRv6 Adj-SID.
* Flags: Used to carry additional information pertaining to the
SRv6-SID. This document defines the following flag bits. The
other bits MUST be set to zero by the sender and MUST be ignored
by the receiver. This document creates a new registry SRv6-ERO
Flag Field registry in Section 9.3 8.3 and allocates the following
values.
*
- S: When this bit is set to 1, the SRv6-SID value in the
subobject body is absent. In this case, the PCC is responsible
for choosing the SRv6-SID value, e.g., by looking up in the SR-DB SR-
DB using the NAI
which, that, in this case, MUST be present in the
subobject. If the S bit is set to 1 1, then the F bit MUST be
set to zero.
*
- F: When this bit is set to 1, the NAI value in the subobject
body is absent. The F bit MUST be set to 1 if NT=0, and otherwise NT=0; otherwise,
it MUST be set to zero. The S and F bits MUST NOT both be set
to 1.
*
- T: When this bit is set to 1, the SID Structure value in the
subobject body is present. The T bit MUST be set to 0 when the
S bit is set to 1. If the T bit is set when the S bit is set,
the T bit MUST be ignored. Thus, the T bit indicates the
presence of an optional 8-byte SID Structure when SRv6 SID is
included. The SID Structure is defined in Section 4.3.1.1.
*
- V: The "SID verification" bit usage is as per Section 5.1 of
[RFC9256]. If a PCC "Verification fails" for a SID, it MUST
report this error by including the LSP-ERROR-CODE TLV with LSP
error-value
Error-value "SID Verification fails" in the LSP object in the
PCRpt message to the PCE.
* Reserved: MUST be set to zero while sending and ignored on
receipt.
* Endpoint Behavior: A 16-bit field representing the behavior
associated with the SRv6 SIDs. This information is optional, but
providing it is recommended to signal it always if whenever possible. It could be used
for maintainability and diagnostic purpose. purposes. If behavior is not
known, value '0xFFFF' "0xFFFF" as defined in the registry "SRv6 Endpoint Behaviors"
registry is used [RFC8986].
* SRv6 SID: SRv6 Identifier is an a 128-bit value representing the SRv6
segment.
* NAI: The NAI associated with the SRv6-SID. The NAI's format
depends on the value in the NT field, field and is described in
[RFC8664].
At least one SRv6-SID or the NAI MUST be included in the SRv6-ERO
subobject, and both MAY be included.
4.3.1.1. SID Structure
The SID Structure is an optional part of the SR-ERO subobject, as
described in Section 4.3.1.
[RFC8986] defines an SRv6 SID as consisting of LOC:FUNCT:ARG, where a
locator (LOC) is encoded in the L most significant bits of the SID,
followed by F bits of function (FUNCT) and A bits of arguments (ARG).
A locator may be represented as B:N where B is the SRv6 SID locator
block (IPv6 prefix allocated for SRv6 SIDs by the operator) and N is
the identifier of the parent node instantiating the SID called
locator node.
It
"locator node".
The SID Structure is formatted as shown in the following figure. Figure 3.

("Reception of an invalid object") and Error-Value Error-value = 37 ("Invalid
SRv6 SID Structure") is returned.
* Reserved: MUST be set to zero while sending and ignored on
receipt.
* Flags: Currently no flags are defined.
* Unassigned bits must be set to zero while sending and ignored on
receipt.
The SRv6 SID Structure provides the detailed encoding information of
an SRv6 SID, which is useful helpful in the use cases that require to know the SRv6
SID structure. structure to be known. When a PCEP speaker receives the SRv6 SID
and its structure information, the SRv6 SID can be parsed based on
the SRv6 SID Structure and/or possible local policies. The SRv6 SID
Structure could be used by the PCE for ease of operations and
monitoring. For example, this information could be used for
validation of SRv6 SIDs being instantiated in the network and checked
for conformance to with the SRv6 SID allocation scheme chosen by the
operator as described in Section 3.2 of [RFC8986]. In the future,
PCE might also be utilized to verify and automate the security of the
SRv6 domain by provisioning filtering rules at the domain boundaries
as described in Section 5 of [RFC8754]. The details of these
potential applications are outside the scope of this document.
4.3.1.2. Order of the Optional fields Fields
The optional elements in the SRv6-ERO subobject i.e. subobject, i.e., SRv6 SID, NAI NAI,
and the SID Structure Structure, MUST be encoded in the order as depicted in
Figure 2. The presence or absence of each of them is indicated by
the respective flags i.e. flags, i.e., S flag, F flag flag, and T flag.
In order to ensure future compatibility, any optional elements added
to the SRv6-ERO subobject in the future must specify their order and
request that the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) to allocate
a flag to indicate their presence from the subregistry created in
Section 9.3. 8.3.
4.4. RRO
In order to support SRv6, a new "SRv6-RRO" subobject is defined for
inclusion in the RRO.
4.4.1. SRv6-RRO Subobject
A PCC reports an SRv6 path to a PCE by sending a PCRpt message, per
[RFC8231]. The RRO on this message represents the SID list that was
applied by the PCC, that is, the actual path taken. The procedures
of [RFC8664] with respect to the RRO apply equally to this
specification without change.
An RRO contains one or more subobjects called "SRv6-RRO subobjects" subobjects",
whose format is shown below. in Figure 4.

Figure 4: SRv6-RRO Subobject Format
The format of the SRv6-RRO subobject is the same as that of the
SRv6-ERO subobject, subobject but without the L flag.
The V flag has no meaning in the SRv6-RRO and is ignored on receipt
at the PCE.
Ordering
The ordering of SRv6-RRO subobjects by PCC in PCRpt message remains
as per [RFC8664].
The ordering of optional elements in the SRv6-RRO subobject is the
same as described in Section 4.3.1.2.
5. Procedures
5.1. Exchanging the SRv6 Capability
A PCC indicates that it is capable of supporting the head-end
functions for SRv6 by including the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV in
the Open message that it sends to a PCE. A PCE indicates that it is
capable of computing SRv6 paths by including the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY
sub-TLV in the Open message that it sends to a PCC.
If a PCEP speaker receives a PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV with a
PST list containing PST=3, but the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV is
absent, then the PCEP speaker MUST send a PCErr message with Error-
Type = 10 (Reception ("Reception of an invalid object) object") and Error-Value = 34
(Missing
("Missing PCE-SRv6-CAPABILITY sub-TLV) sub-TLV") and MUST then close the PCEP
session. If a PCEP speaker receives a PATH-SETUP-TYPE-CAPABILITY TLV
with an SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV, but the PST list does not
contain PST=3, then the PCEP speaker MUST ignore the SRv6-PCE-
CAPABILITY sub-TLV.
In case the MSD-Type in the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV received by
the PCE does not correspond to one of the SRv6 MSD types, the PCE
MUST respond with a PCErr message (Error-Type = 1 "PCEP ("PCEP session
establishment failure" failure") and Error-Value = 1 "reception ("reception of an invalid
Open message or a non Open message."). message.")).
Note that the MSD-Type, MSD-Value (MSD-Type,MSD-Value) pair exchanged via the SRv6-PCE-
CAPABILITY sub-TLV indicates the SRv6 SID imposition limit for the
sender PCC node only. However, if a PCE learns these via alternate
mechanisms, e.g. e.g., routing protocols [RFC9352], then it ignores the
values in the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV. Furthermore, whenever a
PCE learns any other SRv6 MSD types that may be defined in the future
via alternate mechanisms, it MUST use those values regardless of the
values exchanged in the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV.
During path computation, a PCE must consider the MSD information of
all the nodes along the path instead of only the MSD information of
the ingress PCC since a packet may be dropped on any node in a
forwarding path because of the SID depth exceeding the MSD exceeding. of the
node. The MSD capabilities of all SR nodes along the path can be
learned as part of the topology information via IGP/BGP-LS or via
PCEP if the PCE also happens to have PCEP sessions
to with those nodes.
A PCE MUST NOT send SRv6 paths exceeding that exceed the SRv6 MSD capabilities
of the PCC. If a PCC needs to modify the SRv6 MSD value signaled via
the Open message, it MUST close the PCEP session and re-establish it
with the new value. If the PCC receives an SRv6 path that exceed exceeds
its SRv6 MSD capabilities, the PCC MUST send a PCErr message with Error-
Type
Error-Type = 10 (Reception ("Reception of an invalid object) object") and Error-Value Error-value = 39
(Unsupported
40 ("Unsupported number of SRv6-ERO subobjects). subobjects").
The N flag and (MSD-Type,MSD-Value) pair inside the SRv6-PCE-
CAPABILITY sub-TLV are meaningful only in the Open message sent to a
PCE. As such, the flags MUST be set to zero and a (MSD-Type,MSD-
Value) pair MUST NOT be present in the SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV in
an Open message sent to a PCC. Similarly, a PCC MUST ignore flags
and any (MSD-Type,MSD-Value) pair in a received Open message. If a
PCE receives multiple SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLVs in an Open
message, it processes only the first sub-TLV received.
5.2. ERO Processing
The processing of ERO remains unchanged in accordance with both
[RFC5440] and [RFC8664].
5.2.1. SRv6 ERO Validation
If a PCC does not support the SRv6 PCE Capability and thus cannot
recognize the SRv6-ERO or SRv6-RRO subobjects, it should respond
according to the rules for a malformed object as described in
[RFC5440].
On receiving an SRv6-ERO, a PCC MUST validate that the Length field,
the S bit, the F bit, the T bit, and the NT field are consistent, as
follows.
follows:
* If NT=0, the F bit MUST be 1, the S bit MUST be zero zero, and the
Length MUST be 24.
* If NT=2, the F bit MUST be zero. If the S bit is 1, the Length
MUST be 24, otherwise 24; otherwise, the Length MUST be 40.
* If NT=4, the F bit MUST be zero. If the S bit is 1, the Length
MUST be 40, otherwise 40; otherwise, the Length MUST be 56.
* If NT=6, the F bit MUST be zero. If the S bit is 1, the Length
MUST be 48, otherwise 48; otherwise, the Length MUST be 64.
* If the T bit is 1, then the S bit MUST be zero.
If a PCC finds that the NT field, Length field, S bit, F bit, and T
bit are not consistent, it MUST consider the entire ERO invalid and
MUST send a PCErr message with Error-Type = 10 ("Reception of an
invalid object") and Error-Value Error-value = 11 ("Malformed object").
If a PCC does not recognize or support the value in the NT field, it
MUST consider the entire ERO invalid and send a PCErr message with
Error-Type = 10 ("Reception of an invalid object") and Error- value Error-value =
40
41 ("Unsupported NAI Type in the SRv6-ERO/SRv6-RRO subobject").
If a PCC receives an SRv6-ERO subobject in which the S and F bits are
both set to 1 (that is, both the SID and NAI are absent), it MUST
consider the entire ERO invalid and send a PCErr message with Error-
Type = 10 ("Reception of an invalid object") and Error-value = 41 42
("Both SID and NAI are absent in the SRv6-ERO subobject").
If a PCC receives an SRv6-ERO subobject in which the S bit is set to
1 and the F bit is set to zero (that is, the SID is absent and the
NAI is present), but the PCC does not support NAI resolution, it MUST
consider the entire ERO invalid and send a PCErr message with Error-
Type = 4 ("Not supported object") and Error-value = 4 ("Unsupported
parameter").
If a PCC detects that the subobjects of an ERO are a mixture of SRv6-
ERO
SRv6-ERO subobjects and subobjects of other types, then it MUST send
a PCErr message with Error-Type = 10 ("Reception of an invalid
object") and Error-value = 42 43 ("ERO mixes SRv6-ERO subobjects with
other subobject types").
In case a PCEP speaker receives an SRv6-ERO subobject, when the PST
is not set to 3 or SRv6-PCE-CAPABILITY sub-TLV was not exchanged, it
MUST send a PCErr message with Error-Type = 19 ("Invalid Operation")
and Error-Value Error-value = 19 ("Attempted SRv6 when the capability was not
advertised").
If a PCC receives an SRv6 path that exceeds the SRv6 MSD
capabilities, it MUST send a PCErr message with Error-Type = 10
("Reception of an invalid object") and Error-Value Error-value = 43 40 ("Unsupported
number of SRv6-ERO subobjects") as per [RFC8664].
5.2.2. Interpreting the SRv6-ERO
The SRv6-ERO contains a sequence of subobjects. According to
[RFC9256], each SRv6-ERO subobject in the sequence identifies a
segment that the traffic will be directed to, in the order given.
That is, the first subobject identifies the first segment the traffic
will be directed to, the second SRv6-ERO subobject represents the
second segment, and so on.
5.3. RRO Processing
The syntax checking syntax-checking rules that apply to the SRv6-RRO subobject are
identical to those of the SRv6-ERO subobject, except as noted below.
If a PCEP speaker receives an SRv6-RRO subobject in which both SRv6
SID and NAI are absent, it MUST consider the entire RRO invalid and
send a PCErr message with Error-Type = 10 ("Reception of an invalid
object") and Error-Value Error-value = 35 ("Both SID and NAI are absent in
SRv6-RRO subobject").
If a PCE detects that the subobjects of an RRO are a mixture of
SRv6-RRO subobjects and subobjects of other types, then it MUST send
a PCErr message with Error-Type = 10 ("Reception of an invalid
object") and Error-Value Error-value = 36 ("RRO mixes SRv6-RRO subobjects with
other subobject types").
The mechanism by which the PCC learns the path is outside the scope
of this document.
6. Security Considerations
The security considerations Security Considerations described in [RFC5440], section Section 2.5 of
[RFC6952], [RFC8231], [RFC8281], [RFC8253] [RFC8253], and [RFC8664] are
applicable to this specification.
Note that this specification enables a network controller to
instantiate an SRv6 path in the network. This creates an additional
vulnerability if the security mechanisms of [RFC5440], [RFC8231], and
[RFC8281] are not used. If there is no integrity protection on the
session, then an attacker could create an SRv6 path that may not be
subjected to the further verification checks. Further, the MSD field
in the Open message could disclose node forwarding capabilities if
suitable security mechanisms are not in place. Hence, securing the
PCEP session using Transport Layer Security (TLS) [RFC8253] is
RECOMMENDED.
7. Manageability Considerations
All manageability requirements and considerations listed in
[RFC5440], [RFC8231], [RFC8281], and [RFC8664] apply to PCEP protocol
extensions defined in this document. In addition, requirements and
considerations listed in this section apply.
7.1. Control of Function and Policy
A PCEP implementation SHOULD allow the operator to configure the SRv6
capability. Further Further, a policy to accept NAI only for the SRv6 SHOULD
be allowed to be set.
7.2. Information and Data Models
The PCEP YANG module is out of the scope of this document and document; it is
defined in other documents, for example, [I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-yang]. [PCEP-YANG]. An augmented
YANG module for SRv6 is also specified in another document
[I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-srv6-yang] [PCEP-SRv6-YANG] that
allows for SRv6 capability and MSD configurations as well as to
monitor the SRv6 paths set in the network.
7.3. Liveness Detection and Monitoring
Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new liveness
detection and monitoring requirements in addition to those already
listed in [RFC5440].
7.4. Verify Correct Operations
Verification of the mechanisms defined in this document can be built
on those already listed in [RFC5440], [RFC8231], and [RFC8664].
7.5. Requirements On on Other Protocols
Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new requirements
on other protocols.
7.6. Impact On on Network Operations
Mechanisms defined in [RFC5440], [RFC8231], and [RFC8664] also apply
to PCEP extensions defined in this document.
8. Implementation Status
