Yang Expires: August 13, 2013 Cisco Systems February 09, 2013 IS-IS Flooding Scope LSPs draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt Abstract Intermediate System To Intermediate System (IS-IS) provides efficient and reliable flooding of information to its peers. However the current flooding scopes are limited to either area wide scope or domain wide scope. There are existing use cases where support of other flooding scopes are desirable. This document defines new Protocol Data Units (PDUs) which provide support for new flooding scopes as well as additional space for advertising information targeted for the currently supported flooding scopes. The protocol extensions defined in this document are not backwards compatible with existing implementations and so must be deployed with care.

Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 3] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 1. Introduction The Update Process as defined by [IS-IS] provides reliable and efficient flooding of information to all routers in a given flooding scope. Currently the protocol supports two flooding scopes and associated Protocol Data Units (PDUs). Level 1 (L1) Link State PDUs (LSPs) are flooded to all routers in an area. Level 2 (L2) LSPs are flooded to all routers in the Level 2 sub-domain. The basic operation of the Update Process can be applied to any subset of the routers in a given topology so long as that topology is not partitioned. It is therefore possible to introduce new PDUs in support of other flooding scopes and utilize the same Update Process machinery to provide the same reliability and efficiency which the Update Process currently provides for L1 and L2 scopes. This document defines these new PDUs and the modified Update Process rules which are to be used in supporting new flooding scopes. New deployment cases have introduced the need for reliable and efficient circuit scoped flooding. For example, Appointed Forwarder information as defined in [RFC6326] needs to be flooded reliably and efficiently to all RBridges on a broadcast circuit. Currently, only Intermediate System to Intermediate System Hellos (IIHs) have the matching scope - but IIHs are unreliable i.e. individual IIHs may be lost without affecting correct operation of the protocol. To provide reliability in cases where the set of information to be flooded exceeds the carrying capacity of a single PDU requires sending the information periodically even when no changes in the content have occurred. When the information content is large this is inefficient and still does not provide a guarantee of reliability. This document defines circuit scoped flooding in order to provide a solution for such cases. Another existing limitation of [IS-IS] is the carrying capacity of an LSP set. It has been noted in [RFC5311] that the set of LSPs that may be originated by a system at each level is limited to 256 LSPs and the maximum size of each LSP is limited by the minimum Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of any link used to flood LSPs. [RFC5311] has defined a backwards compatible protocol extension which can be used to overcome this limitation if needed. While the [RFC5311] solution is viable, in order to be interoperable with routers which do not support the extension it imposes some restrictions on what can/cannot be advertised in the Extended LSPs and requires allocation of multiple unique system IDs to a given router. A more flexible and less constraining solution is possible if interoperability with legacy routers is not a requirement. As the introduction of new PDUs required to support new flooding scopes is by definition not interoperable with legacy routers, it is possible to simultaneously introduce an alternative solution to the limited LSP set carrying Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 4] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 capacity as part of the extensions defined in this document. This capability is also defined in this document. The PDU type field in the common header for all IS-IS PDUs is a 5 bit field. The possible PDU types supported by the protocol are therefore limited to a maximum of 32. In order to minimize the need to introduce additional PDU types in the future, the new PDUs introduced in this document are defined so as to allow multiple flooding scopes to be associated with the same PDU type. This means if new flooding scopes are required in the future the same PDU type can be used. 2. Definition of New PDUs In support of new flooding scopes the following new PDUs are required: o Flooding Scoped LSPs (FS-LSPs) o Flooding Scoped Complete Sequence Number PDUs (FS-CSNPs) o Flooding Scoped Partial Sequence Number PDUs (FS-PSNPs) Each of these PDUs is intentionally defined with a header as similar in format to the corresponding PDU types currently defined in [IS-IS] as possible. Although it might have been possible to eliminate or redefine PDU header fields in a new way the existing formats are retained in order to allow maximum reuse of existing PDU processing logic in an implementation. Note that in the case of all FS PDUs, the Maximum Area Addresses field in the header of the corresponding standard PDU has been replaced with a Scope field. The maximum area addresses checks specified in [IS-IS] are therefore not performed on FS PDUs. 2.1.

Flooding Scope Update Process Operation The Update Process as defined in [IS-IS] maintains a Link State Database (LSDB) for each level supported. Each level specific LSDB contains the full set of LSPs generated by all routers operating in that level specific scope. The introduction of FS-LSPs creates additional LSDBs (FS-LSDBs) for each additional scope supported. The set of FS-LSPs in each FS-LSDB consists of all FS-LSPs generated by all routers operating in that scope. There is therefore an additional instance of the Update Process for each supported flooding scope. Operation of the scope specific Update Process follows the Update Process specification in [IS-IS]. The circuit(s) on which FS-LSPs are flooded are limited to those circuits which are participating in the given scope. Similarly the sending/receiving of FS-CSNPs and FS- PSNPs is limited to the circuits participating in the given scope. Consistent support of a given flooding scope on a circuit by all routers operating on that circuit is required. 3.1. Scope Types A flooding scope may be limited to a single circuit (circuit scope). Circuit scopes may be further limited by level (L1 circuit scope/L2 circuit scope). A flooding scope may be limited to all circuits enabled for L1 routing (area scope). A flooding scope may be limited to all circuits enabled for L2 routing (L2 sub-domain scope). Additional scopes may be defined which include all circuits enabled for either L1 or L2 routing (domain-wide scope). 3.2. Operation on Point-to-Point Circuits When a new adjacency is formed, synchronization of all FS-LSDBs supported on that circuit is required. Therefore FS-CSNPs for all supported scopes MUST be sent when a new adjacency reaches the UP state. Send Receive Message (SRM) bit MUST be set for all FS-LSPs associated with the scopes supported on that circuit. Receipt of an FS-PSNP with the U bit equal to 1 indicates that the neighbor does not support that scope (although it does support FS PDUs). This MUST cause SRM bit to be cleared for all FS-LSPs with the matching scope which are currently marked for flooding on that circuit. Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 11] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 3.3. Operation on Broadcast Circuits FS PDUs are sent to the same destination address(es) as standard PDUs for the given protocol instance. For specification of the defined destination addresses consult [IS-IS], [IEEEaq], [RFC6822], and [RFC6325]. The Designated Intermediate System (DIS) for a broadcast circuit has the responsibility to generate periodic scope specific FS-CSNPs for all supported scopes. A scope specific DIS is NOT elected as all routers on a circuit MUST support a consistent set of flooding scopes. It is possible that a scope may be defined which is not level specific. In such a case the DIS for each level enabled on a broadcast circuit MUST independently send FS PDUs for that scope to the appropriate level specific destination address. This may result in redundant flooding of FS-LSPs for that scope. 3.4. Use of Authentication Authentication TLVs MAY be included in FS PDUs. When authentication is in use, the scope is first used to select the authentication configuration that is applicable. The authentication check is then performed as normal. Although scope specific authentication MAY be used, sharing of authentication among multiple scopes and/or with the standard LSP/CSNP/PSNP PDUs is considered sufficient. 4. Deployment Considerations Introduction of new PDU types is incompatible with legacy implementations. Legacy implementations do not support the FS specific Update process(es) and therefore flooding of the FS-LSPs throughout the defined scope is unreliable when not all routers in the defined scope support FS PDUs. Further, legacy implementations will likely treat the reception of an FS PDUs as an error. Even when all routers in a given scope support FS PDUs, if not all routers in the flooding domain for a given scope support that scope flooding of the FS-LSPs may be compromised. Therefore all routers in the flooding domain for a given scope SHOULD support both FS PDUs and the specified scope before use of that scope can be enabled. The U bit in FS-PSNPs provides a means to suppress retransmissions of unsupported scopes. Routers which support FS PDUs SHOULD support the sending of PSNPs with the U bit equal to 1 when an FS-LSP is received with a scope which is unsupported. Routers which support FS PDUs SHOULD trigger management notifications when FS PDUs are received for Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 12] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 unsupported scopes and when PSNPs with the U bit equal to 1 are received. 5. Graceful Restart Interactions [RFC5306] defines protocol extensions in support of graceful restart of a routing instance. Synchronization of all supported FS-LSDBs is required in order for database synchronization to be complete. This involves the use of additional T2 timers. Receipt of a PSNP with the U bit equal to 1 will cause FS-LSDB synchronization with that neighbor to be considered complete for that scope. See [RFC5306] for further details. 6. Multi-instance Interactions In cases where FS-PDUs are associated with a non-zero instance the use of IID-TLVs in FS-PDUs follows the rules for use in LSPs, CSNPs, PSNPs as defined in [RFC6822]. 7. Circuit Scoped Flooding This document defines two circuit scoped flooding identifiers: o Level 1 circuit scope (L1CS) o Level 2 circuit scope (L2CS) FS-LSPs with the scope field set to one of these values contain information specific to the circuit on which they are flooded. When received, such FS-LSPs MUST NOT be flooded on any other circuit. The FS LSP ID Extended format is used in these PDUs. The FS-LSDB associated with circuit scoped FS-LSPs consists of the set of FS-LSPs which both have matching circuit scope and are transmitted(locally generated) or received on a specific circuit. The set of TLVs which may be included in such FS-LSPs is specific to the given use case and is outside the scope of this document. 8. Extending LSP Set Capacity The need for additional space in the set of LSPs generated by a single IS has been articulated in [RFC5311]. When legacy interoperability is not a requirement, the use of FS-LSPs meets that need without the need for assigning alias system-ids to a single IS. Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 13] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 Two flooding scopes are defined for this purpose: o Level 1 Scoped FS-LSPs (L1-FS-LSP) o Level 2 Scoped FS-LSPs (L2-FS-LSP) The FS LSP ID Extended format is used in these PDUs. This provides 64K of additional LSPs which may be generated by a singe system at each level. Lx-FS-LSPs are used by the level specific Decision Process (defined in [IS-IS]) in the same manner as standard LSPs (i.e. as additional information sourced by the same IS) subject to the following restrictions: o A valid version of LSP #0 from the same IS at the corresponding Level MUST be present in the LSDB in order for the FS-LSP set to be usable o Information in an Lx-FS-LSP (e.g. IS-Neighbor information) which supports using the originating IS as a transit node MUST NOT be used when the Overload bit is set in LSP #0 o Existing TLVs which are restricted to LSP #0 MUST NOT appear in Lx-FS-LSPs. There are no further restrictions as to what TLVs may be advertised in FS-LSPs. 9. Domain Scoped Flooding Existing support for flooding information domain wide (i.e. to L1 routers in all areas as well as to routers in the Level 2 sub-domain) requires the use of leaking procedures between levels. For further details see [RFC4971]. This is sufficient when the data being flooded domain-wide consists of individual TLVs. If it is desired to retain the identity of the originating IS for the complete contents of a PDU, then support for flooding the unchanged PDU is desirable. This document therefore defines a domain-wide flooding scope. FS- LSPs with this scope MUST be flooded on all circuits regardless of what level(s) are supported on that circuit. The FS LSP ID Extended format is used in these PDUs. Use of information in FS-LSPs for a given scope depends on determining the reachability to the IS originating the FS-LSP. This presents challenges for FS-LSPs with domain-scopes because no single Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 14] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 IS has the full view of the topology across all areas. It is therefore necessary for the originator of domain scoped FS-LSPs to advertise an identifier which will allow an IS who receives such an FS-LSP to determine whether the source of the FS-LSP is currently reachable. The identifier required depends on what "address- families" are being advertised. When IS-IS is deployed in support of Layer 3 routing for IPv4 and/or IPv6 then FS-LSP #0 with domain-wide scope MUST include at least one of the following TLVs: o IPv4 Traffic Engineering Router ID (TLV 134) o IPv6 Traffic Engineering Router ID (TLV 140) When IS-IS is deployed in support of Layer 2 routing, current standards (e.g. [RFC6325]) only support a single area. Therefore domain-wide scope is not yet applicable. When the Layer 2 standards are updated to include multi-area support the identifiers which can be used to support inter-area reachability will be defined - at which point the use of domain-wide scope for Layer 2 can be fully defined. 10. Announcing Support for Flooding Scopes Announcements of support for flooding scope may be useful in validating that full support has been deployed and/or in isolating the reasons for incomplete flooding of FS-LSPs for a given scope. ISs supporting FS-PDUs MAY announce supported scopes in IIH PDUs. To do so a new TLV is defined. Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 15] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 Scoped Flooding Support Type: 243 (suggested - to be assigned by IANA) Length: 1 - 127 Value No of octets +----------------------+ |R| Supported Scope | 1 +----------------------+ : : +----------------------+ |R| Supported Scope | 1 +----------------------+ A list of the circuit scopes supported on this circuit and other non-circuit flooding scopes supported. R bit MUST be 0 and is ignored on receipt. In a Point-Point IIH L1, L2 and domain-wide scopes MAY be advertised. In Level 1 LAN IIHs L1 and domain-wide scopes MAY be advertised. In Level 2 LAN IIHs L2 and domain-wide scopes MAY be advertised. Information in this TLV MUST NOT be considered in adjacency formation. Whether information in this TLV is used to determine when FS-LSPs associated with a locally supported scope are flooded is an implementation choice. 11. IANA Considerations This document requires the definition of three new PDU types that need to be reflected in the ISIS PDU registry. Values below are suggested values subject to assignment by IANA. Value Description ---- --------------------- 10 FS-LSP 11 FS-CSNP 12 FS-PSNP This document requires that a new IANA registry be created to control the assignment of scope identifiers in FS-PDUs. The registration procedure is "Expert Review" as defined in [RFC5226]. Suggested registry name is "LSP Flooding Scoped Identifier Registry". A scope identifier is a number from 1-127 inclusive. The following scope Ginsberg, et al. Expires August 13, 2013 [Page 16] Internet-Draft draft-ginsberg-isis-fs-lsp-00.txt February 2013 identifiers are defined by this document. Values are suggested values subject to assignment by IANA. Value Description FS LSP ID Format ----- ------------------------------ ---------------- 1 Level 1 Circuit Flooding Scope Extended 2 Level 2 Circuit Flooding Scope Extended 3 Level 1 Flooding Scope Extended 4 Level 2 Flooding Scope Extended 5 Domain-wide Flooding Scope Extended This document requires the definition of a new IS-IS TLV to be reflected in the "IS-IS TLV Codepoints" registry: Type Description IIH LSP SNP Purge ---- ------------ --- --- --- ----- 243 Circuit Scoped Flooding Support Y N N N 12. Security Considerations Security concerns for IS-IS are addressed in [IS-IS], [RFC5304], and [RFC5310]. The new PDUs introduced are subject to the same security issues associated with their standard LSP/CSNP/PSNP counterparts. To the extent that additional PDUs represent additional load for routers in the network this increases the opportunity for denial of service attacks. 13.
