PROPOSED STANDARD
Updated by:9184Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) E. RosenRequest for Comments: 7153 Cisco Systems, Inc.Updates:4360,5701 Y. RekhterCategory: Standards Track Juniper Networks, Inc.ISSN: 2070-1721 March 2014IANA Registries for BGP Extended CommunitiesAbstract This document reorganizes the IANA registries for the type values and sub-type values of the BGP Extended Communities attribute and the BGP IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Communities attribute. This is done in order to remove interdependencies among the registries, thus making it easier for IANA to determine which codepoints are available for assignment in which registries. This document also clarifies the information that must be provided to IANA when requesting an allocation from one or more of these registries. These changes are compatible with the existing allocations and thus do not affect protocol implementations. The changes will, however, impact the "IANA Considerations" sections of future protocol specifications. This document updatesRFC 4360 andRFC 5701.Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

Normative References ...........................................161. IntroductionRFC 4360 [RFC4360] defines the BGP "Extended Communities" (EC) attribute. This attribute consists of a sequence of eight-octet "extended communities". The high-order octet is defined to be the "Type" field. Each Type has a range of values for "Transitive Extended Community Types" and a range of values for "Non-transitive Extended Community Types". Some of these ranges are further subdivided into a sub-range of values to be assigned by IANA under the "Standards Action" policy, a sub-range of values to be assignedRosen & Rekhter Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 7153 IANA Registries for BGP ECs March 2014 by IANA under the "First Come First Served" policy, and a sub-range for "experimental use". (See [RFC5226], [RFC7120], and [RFC3692] for an explanation of these policies.) For some Extended Community Types, the second octet of the Extended Community is a "Sub-Type" field, and the remaining six octets are the "Value" field. These are referred to as "Extended Types". For other types, there is no "Sub-Type" field, and the "Value" field contains seven octets. These are referred to as "Regular Types".RFC 4360 is not very specific about how the IANA registries for Extended Community Types and/or Sub-Types are to be organized, and this has led to some confusion. The purpose of this document is to reorganize the registries to make the IANA codepoint allocation task more straightforward.2. Types, Sub-Types, and Registries The high-order octet of an Extended Community will be known as the "Type" field. There will be one IANA registry for "Transitive Extended Community Types" (seeSection 5.1.1) and one for "Non-transitive Extended Community Types" (Section 5.1.2). Each registry specifies three ranges, and each range is associated with a particular IANA allocation policy. There will be a set of IANA registries for Extended Community Sub-Types (seeSection 5.2). Each such registry will have a range of 0x00-0xFF. Values in the range 0x00-0xBF are assignable by IANA according to the "First Come First Served" allocation policy of [RFC5226]. Values in the range 0xC0-0xFF are assignable by IANA according to the "IETF Review" allocation policy of [RFC5226]. If a particular Type has Sub-Types, that Type's entry in its Type registry identifies its Sub-Type registry. Note that some Types do not have Sub-Types. When the request is made to establish a new Type registry, the request must specify whether or not there is to be a Sub-Type registry associated with that Type. Whether a given Type has Sub-Types is determined when the Type is initially defined; this cannot be changed later.3. Applicability to IPv6-Address-Specific EC AttributeRFC 5701 [RFC5701] defines the IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Community to be a 20-octet quantity whose high-order two octets may be considered to be the "Type" field. The high-order octet is eitherRosen & Rekhter Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 7153 IANA Registries for BGP ECs March 2014 0x00, indicating a transitive Extended Community; or 0x40, indicating a Non-transitive Extended Community. The second octet is said to be a "Sub-Type", and it is suggested that the Sub-Types are the same as the Sub-Types for the IPv4-Address-Specific Extended Community. However, the existing IANA codepoint allocations for this octet do not always match the corresponding allocations for the IPv4-Address-Specific Extended Community Sub-Types. This document modifiesRFC 5701 by removing any requirement for the values of the second octet of the IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Community Type codepoints to match the codepoints in either of the IPv4-Address-Specific Sub-Types registries. This document requests IANA to create two IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Community registries -- one for transitive communities and one for non-transitive communities. SeeSection 5.3.4. How to Request EC Type and/or Sub-Type Codepoints When a codepoint is needed for a new Extended Community, the requester should first determine whether an existing Type can be used. If so, IANA should be asked to allocate a codepoint from the corresponding Sub-Type registry, if there is one. If a new Extended Community Type is needed, the requester should ask IANA to allocate a new type from the "BGP Transitive Extended Community Types" registry, the "BGP Non-Transitive Extended Community Types" registry, or both. It is up to the requester to state whether an allocation is needed from one or both of these registries. When an allocation from both registries is requested, the requester may find it desirable for both allocations to share the same low-order six bits. If so, it is the responsibility of the requester to explicitly request this of IANA. Of course, any request for a codepoint from a particular registry must follow the defined registration procedures for that registry. If a new Extended Community Type is needed and the new Type is to have Sub-Types, the requester should specify whether an existing Sub-Type registry can be used for the new Type or a new Sub-Type registry is needed. (At the current time, every Type that has Sub-Types is associated with a unique Sub-Type registry. It is possible that in the future a new Type registry may be created that is associated with a pre-existing Sub-Type registry.) In either case, if a new Sub-Type value needs to be allocated from a particular Sub-Type registry, the request should explicitly identify the registry.Rosen & Rekhter Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 7153 IANA Registries for BGP ECs March 2014 If the creation of a new Sub-Type registry is requested, the range of values is always 0x00-0xFF. It is recommended that the allocation policy described inSection 2 be used, i.e., 0x00-0xBF to be allocated by IANA under the "First Come First Served" policy and 0xC0-0xFF to be allocated by IANA under the "IETF Review" policy. Commonly, a new Extended Community is defined such that it can be of several Types. For example, one may want to define a new Extended Community so that it can be either transitive or non-transitive, either the two-octet AS Number Type or the four-octet AS Number Type, etc. The requester is responsible for explicitly asking IANA to allocate codepoints in all the necessary Type and/or Sub-Type registries. When a new Extended Community is defined, it may be necessary to ask IANA to allocate codepoints in several Sub-Type registries. In this case, it is a common practice to ask IANA to allocate the same codepoint value in each registry. If this is desired, it is the responsibility of the requester to explicitly ask IANA to allocate the same value in each registry. When a new Extended Community Sub-Type codepoint is allocated, it may also be desirable to allocate a corresponding value in one or both of the IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Community registries. The requester is responsible for requesting this allocation explicitly. If the requester would like the same numerical value to be allocated in an IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Community registry that is allocated in some other registry, it is the responsibility of the requester to explicitly ask this of IANA.5. IANA Considerations IANA has replaced the pre-existing BGP Extended Communities registries with the registries described in this section. The registries reproduced below do not include the "references" or "date" fields for the individual codepoints in the registries, because it is difficult to incorporate those within the 72-character line limitation of RFCs. The references and associated dates have been copied from the existing registries when creating the new registries; the authors have worked with IANA to ensure that this information has been carried over correctly to the reorganized registry. As this document does not change the usage or semantics of any of the codepoints, the references associated with the individual codepoints do not change. On the other hand, the references for each of the registries defined in this section have been changed to refer to this document.Rosen & Rekhter Standards Track [Page 6]
