Introduction   There are two well-known approaches in deploying MPLS Traffic   Engineering:   (1) The so-called "strategic" approach that consists of setting up a   full mesh of TE LSPs between a set of LSRs.   (2) The so-called "tactical" approach, where a set of TE LSPs are   provisioned on well-identified "hot spots" in order to alleviate a   congestion resulting, for instance, from an unexpected traffic growth   in some parts of the network.   The setup of a full mesh of TE LSPs among a set of LSRs is a common   deployment scenario of MPLS Traffic Engineering either for bandwidth   optimization, bandwidth guarantees, or fast rerouting with MPLS Fast   Reroute.  Setting up a full mesh of TE LSPs between N LSRs requires   the configuration of a potentially large number of TE LSPs (O(N^2)).   Furthermore, the addition of any new LSR in the mesh requires the   configuration of N additional TE LSPs on the new LSR and one new TE   LSP on every LSR of the existing mesh destined to this new LSR, which   gives a total of 2*N TE LSPs to be configured.  Such an operation is   not only time consuming but also risky (prone to misconfiguration)   for Service Providers.  Hence, an automatic mechanism for setting up   TE LSPs meshes is desirable and requires the ability to automatically   discover the set of LSRs that belong to the mesh.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 2007   specifies routing extensions so as to automatically discover the   members of a mesh, also referred to as a "TE mesh-group".  Note that   the mechanism(s) needed for the dynamic creation of TE LSPs is   implementation specific and outside the scope of this document.   Routing extensions have been defined in [RFC4970] and [RFC4971] in   order to advertise router capabilities.  This document specifies IGP   (OSPF and IS-IS) TE Mesh Group (Type Length Value) TLVs allowing for   the automatic discovery of a TE mesh-group members, to be carried in   the OSPF Router Information (Link State Advertisement) LSA [RFC4970]   and IS-IS Router Capability TLV [RFC4971].  The routing extensions   specified in this document provide the ability to signal multiple TE   mesh groups.  An LSR may belong to more than one TE mesh-group(s).   There are relatively tight real-time constraints on the operation of   IGPs (such as OSPF and IS-IS).  For this reason, some care needs to   be applied when proposing to carry additional information in an IGP.   The information described in this document is both relatively small   in total volume (compared with other information already carried in   IGPs), and also relatively stable (i.e., changes are based on   configuration changes, but not on dynamic events within the network,   or on dynamic triggers, such as the leaking of information from other   routing protocols or routing protocol instances).2.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 20072.1.  Conventions Used in This Document   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this   document are to be interpreted as described inRFC 2119 [RFC2119].3.  Description of a TE Mesh-Group   A TE mesh-group is defined as a group of LSRs that are connected by a   full mesh of TE LSPs.  Routing extensions are specified in this   document, allowing for dynamic discovery of the TE mesh-group   members.  Procedures are also specified for a member to join and   leave a TE mesh-group.  For each TE mesh-group membership announced   by an LSR, the following information is advertised:   -  A mesh-group number identifying the TE mesh-group that the LSR      belongs to,   -  A tail-end address (used as the TE LSP Tail-end address by other      LSRs belonging to the same mesh-group),   -  A tail-end name: a display string that is allocated to the tail-      end used to ease the TE-LSP naming.4.  TE-MESH-GROUP TLV Formats4.1.  OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV Format   The TE-MESH-GROUP TLV is used to advertise the desire of an LSR to   join/leave a given TE mesh-group.  No sub-TLV is currently defined   for the TE-MESH-GROUP TLV.   The OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV (advertised in an OSPF router information   LSA defined in [RFC4970]) has the following format:      0                   1                   2                   3      0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |              Type             |             Length            |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                                                               |      //                            Value                            //      |                                                               |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+                      Figure 1 - OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV formatVasseur, et al.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 2007   Where      Type: identifies the TLV type      Length: the length of the value field in octets   The format of the OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV is the same as the TLV   format used by the Traffic Engineering Extensions to OSPF   (see[RFC3630]).  The TLV is padded to a four-octet alignment; padding   is not included in the length field (so a three-octet value would   have a length of three, but the total size of the TLV would be eight   octets).  Nested TLVs are also 32-bit aligned.  Unrecognized types   are ignored.  All types between 32768 and 65535 are reserved for   vendor-specific extensions.  All other undefined type codes are   reserved for future assignment by IANA.   The OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV format for IPv4 (Figure 2) and IPv6   (Figure 3) is as follows:   TYPE: 3   LENGTH: Variable      0                   1                   2                   3      0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                      mesh-group-number 1                      |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                     Tail-end IPv4 address 1                   |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |  Name length  |               Tail-end name 1                 |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+     //                                                               //      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                      mesh-group-number n                      |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |                     Tail-end IPv4 address n                   |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+      |  Name length  |               Tail-end name n                 |      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+          Figure 2 - OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV format (IPv4 Address)Vasseur, et al.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 20074.2.  IS-IS TE-MESH-GROUP Sub-TLV Format   The TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is used to advertise the desire of an LSR   to join/leave a given TE mesh-group.  No sub-TLV is currently defined   for the TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV.   The IS-IS TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV (advertised in the IS-IS CAPABILITY   TLV defined in [RFC4971]) is composed of 1 octet for the type, 1   octet specifying the TLV length and a value field.  The format of the   TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is identical to the TLV format used by the   Traffic Engineering Extensions for IS-IS [RFC3784].

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 20075.  Elements of Procedure   The OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV is carried within the OSPF Routing   Information LSA and the IS-IS TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is carried within   the IS-IS Router capability TLV.  As such, elements of procedure are   inherited from those defined in [RFC4970] and [RFC4971] for OSPF and   IS-IS respectively.  Specifically, a router MUST originate a new   LSA/LSP whenever the content of this information changes, or whenever   required by regular routing procedure (e.g., updates).   The TE-MESH-GROUP TLV is OPTIONAL and MUST NOT include more than one   of each of the IPv4 instances or the IPv6 instance.  If either the   IPv4 or the IPv6 OSPF TE-MESH-GROUP TLV occurs more than once within   the OSPF Router Information LSA, only the first instance is   processed, subsequent TLV(s) SHOULD be silently ignored.  Similarly,   if either the IPv4 or the IPv6 IS-IS TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV occurs   more than once within the IS-IS Router capability TLV, only the first   instance is processed, subsequent TLV(s) SHOULD be silently ignored.5.1.  OSPF   The TE-MESH-GROUP TLV is advertised within an OSPF Router Information   opaque LSA (opaque type of 4, opaque ID of 0) for OSPFv2 [RFC2328]   and within a new LSA (Router Information LSA) for OSPFv3 [RFC2740].   The Router Information LSAs for OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 are defined in   [RFC4970].   A router MUST originate a new OSPF router information LSA whenever   the content of any of the advertised TLV changes or whenever required   by the regular OSPF procedure (LSA update (every LSRefreshTime)).  If   an LSR desires to join or leave a particular TE mesh group, it MUST   originate a new OSPF Router Information LSA comprising the updated   TE-MESH-GROUP TLV.  In the case of a join, a new entry will be added   to the TE-MESH-GROUP TLV; conversely, if the LSR leaves, a mesh-group   the corresponding entry will be removed from the TE-MESH-GROUP TLV.   Note that both operations can be performed in the context of a single   LSA update.  An implementation SHOULD be able to detect any change to   a previously received TE-MESH-GROUP TLV from a specific LSR.   As defined in [RFC2370] for OSPVv2 and in [RFC2740] for OSPFv3, the   flooding scope of the Router Information LSA is determined by the LSA   Opaque type for OSPFv2 and the values of the S1/S2 bits for OSPFv3.   For OSPFv2 Router Information opaque LSA:   -  Link-local scope: type 9;   -  Area-local scope: type 10;Vasseur, et al.             Standards Track                     [Page 9]

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 2007   -  Routing-domain scope: type 11.  In this case, the flooding scope      is equivalent to the Type 5 LSA flooding scope.   For OSPFv3 Router Information LSA:   -  Link-local scope: OSPFv3 Router Information LSA with the S1 and S2      bits cleared;   -  Area-local scope: OSPFv3 Router Information LSA with the S1 bit      set and the S2 bit cleared;   -  Routing-domain scope: OSPFv3 Router Information LSA with S1 bit      cleared and the S2 bit set.   A router may generate multiple OSPF Router Information LSAs with   different flooding scopes.   The TE-MESH-GROUP TLV may be advertised within an Area-local or   Routing-domain scope Router Information LSA, depending on the MPLS TE   mesh group profile:   -  If the MPLS TE mesh-group is contained within a single area (all      the LSRs of the mesh-group are contained within a single area),      the TE-MESH-GROUP TLV MUST be generated within an Area-local      Router Information LSA.   -  If the MPLS TE mesh-group spans multiple OSPF areas, the TE mesh-      group TLV MUST be generated within a Routing-domain scope router      information LSA.5.2.  IS-IS   The TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is advertised within the IS-IS Router   CAPABILITY TLV defined in [RFC4971].  An IS-IS router MUST originate   a new IS-IS LSP whenever the content of any of the advertised sub-TLV   changes or whenever required by regular IS-IS procedure (LSP   updates).  If an LSR desires to join or leave a particular TE mesh   group, it MUST originate a new LSP comprising the refreshed IS-IS   Router capability TLV comprising the updated TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV.   In the case of a join, a new entry will be added to the TE-MESH-GROUP   sub-TLV; conversely, if the LSR leaves a mesh-group, the   corresponding entry will be deleted from the TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV.   Note that both operations can be performed in the context of a single   update.  An implementation SHOULD be able to detect any change to a   previously received TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV from a specific LSR.   If the flooding scope of a TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is limited to an   IS-IS level/area, the sub-TLV MUST not be leaked across level/areaVasseur, et al.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 2007   and the S flag of the Router CAPABILITY TLV MUST be cleared.   Conversely, if the flooding scope of a TE-MESH-GROUP sub-TLV is the   entire routing domain, the TLV MUST be leaked across IS-IS   levels/areas, and the S flag of the Router CAPABILITY TLV MUST be   set.  In both cases, the flooding rules specified in [RFC4971] apply.   As specified in [RFC4971], a router may generate multiple IS-IS   Router CAPABILITY TLVs within an IS-IS LSP with different flooding   scopes.6.  Backward Compatibility   The TE-MESH-GROUP TLVs defined in this document do not introduce any   interoperability issue.  For OSPF, a router not supporting the TE-   MESH-GROUP TLV SHOULD just silently ignore the TLV as specified in   [RFC2370].  For an IS-IS, a router not supporting the TE-MESH-GROUP   sub-TLV SHOULD just silently ignore the sub-TLV.7.  IANA Considerations7.1.

RFC 4972        Discovery of MPLS LSR TE Mesh Membership       July 20078.  Security Considerations   The function described in this document does not create any new   security issues for the OSPF and IS-IS protocols.  Security   considerations are covered in [RFC2328] and [RFC2740] for the base   OSPF protocol and in [RFC1195] for IS-IS.  It must be noted that the   advertisement of "fake" TE Mesh Group membership(s) by a mis-   configured or malicious LSR Y would not have any major impact on the   network (other than overloading the IGP), such as triggering the set   up of new MPLS TE LSP: indeed, for a new TE LSP originated by another   LSR X destined to LSR Y to be set up, the same TE Mesh group   membership must be configured on both LSRs.  Thus such fake   advertisement could not amplify any Denial of Service (DoS) attack.9.
