RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 20081.  Introduction   [RFC4216] defines the scenarios motivating the deployment of inter-AS   Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS TE) and   specifies the requirements for inter-AS MPLS TE when the ASes are   under the administration of one Service Provider (SP) or the   administration of different SPs.   Three signaling options are defined for setting up an inter-AS TE   Label Switched Path (LSP):       1) contiguous TE LSP as documented in [RFC5151];       2) stitched inter-AS TE LSP discussed in [RFC5150];       3) nested TE LSP as in [RFC4206].   [RFC5152] defines mechanisms for the computation of inter-domain TE   LSPs using network elements along the signaling paths to compute   per-domain constrained path segments.  The mechanisms in [RFC5152] do   not guarantee an optimum constrained path across multiple ASes where   an optimum path for a TE LSP is one that has the smallest cost,   according to a normalized TE metric (based upon a TE metric or   Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) metric adopted in each transit AS)   among all possible paths that satisfy the LSP TE constraints.   The Path Computation Element (PCE) [RFC4655] is a component that is   capable of computing paths for MPLS TE and Generalized Multiprotocol   Label Switching Protocol ((G)MPLS TE) LSPs.  The requirements for a   PCE have come from SP demands to compute optimum constrained paths   across multiple areas and/or domains, and to be able to separate the   path computation elements from the forwarding elements.   The PCE Communication Protocol (PCECP) is defined to allow   communication between Path Computation Clients (PCCs) and PCEs, and   between PCEs.  The PCECP is used to request (G)MPLS TE paths and to   supply computed paths in response.  Generic requirements for the   PCECP are discussed in [RFC4657].  This document provides a set of   PCECP requirements that are specific to inter-AS (G)MPLS TE path   computation.2.  Terminology   This document adopts the definitions and acronyms defined inSection3 of [RFC4216] andSection 2 of [RFC4655].  In addition, we use the   following terminology:   ASBR: Autonomous System Border Router (seesection 3 of RFC 4216)   PCECP: PCE Communication ProtocolBitar, et al.

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   (G)MPLS TE: MPLS or Generalized MPLS Traffic Engineering   Inter-AS (G)MPLS TE path: An MPLS TE or Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) path      that traverses two or more ASes.   Intra-AS (G)MPLS TE path: An MPLS TE or GMPLS path that is confined      to a single AS.  It may traverse one or more IGP areas.   Intra-AS PCE: A PCE responsible for computing (G)MPLS TE paths      remaining within a single AS.   Inter-AS PCE: A PCE responsible for computing inter-AS (G)MPLS paths      or path segments, possibly by cooperating with intra-AS PCEs.   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 2119.3.  Reference Model   Figure 1 depicts the reference model for PCEs in an inter-AS   application.  We refer to two types of PCE functions in this   document: inter-AS PCEs and intra-AS PCEs.  Inter-AS PCEs perform the   procedures needed for inter-AS (G)MPLS TE path computation while   intra-AS PCEs perform the functions needed for intra-AS (G)MPLS TE   path computation.

R1 in AS1   wants to setup a (G)MPLS TE path, call it LSP1, with certain   constraints to R7 in AS3.  R1 determines, using mechanisms out of theBitar, et al.

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   scope of this document, that R7 is an inter-AS route and that R1   (itself) needs to contact its Inter-AS PCE1 to compute the path.  R1,   as a PCC, sends a PCECP path computation request to PCE1.  PCE1   determines that R7 is reachable via AS2 and that PCE2 is the PCE to   ask for path computation across AS2.  PCE1 sends a PCECP path   computation request to PCE2.  Inter-AS PCE2, in turn, sends a PCECP   path computation request to Intra-AS PCE R4 to compute a path within   AS2 (in certain cases, the same router such as R3 can assume both   inter-AS and intra-AS path computation functions).  R4 may for   instance return a PCECP path computation response to PCE2 with ASBR3   as the entry point to AS2 from AS1 and ASBR7 as the exit point to   AS3.  PCE2 then sends a PCECP path computation request to PCE3 to   compute the path segment across AS3, starting at ASBR7 and   terminating at R7.  PCE3 returns a PCECP path computation response to   PCE2 with the path segment ASBR7-R7.  PCE2 then returns path ASBR3-   ASBR5-ASBR7-R7 to PCE1, which, in turn, returns path ASBR1-ASBR3-   ASBR5-ASBR7-R7 to PCC R1.   As described in the above scenario, in general, a PCC may contact an   inter-AS PCE to request the computation of an inter-AS path.  That   PCE may supply the path itself or may solicit the services of other   PCEs, which may themselves be inter-AS PCEs, or may be intra-AS PCEs   with the responsibility for computing path segments within just one   AS.   This document describes the PCE Communication Protocol requirements   for inter-AS path computation, i.e., for PCCs to communicate path   computation requests for inter-AS (G)MPLS TE paths to PCEs, and for   the PCEs to respond.  It also includes the requirements for PCEs to   communicate inter-AS path computation requests and responses.3.1.  Scope of Deployment Model   All attempts to predict future deployment scopes within the Internet   have proven fruitless.  Nevertheless, it may be helpful to provide   some discussion of the scope of the inter-AS deployment model as   envisioned at the time of writing.   It is expected that most, if not all, inter-AS PCECP-based   communications will be between PCEs operating in the cooperative PCE   model described in [RFC4655].  Clearly, in this model, the requesting   PCE acts as a PCC for the purpose of issuing a path computation   request, but nevertheless, the requesting node fills the wider role   of a PCE in its own AS.  It is currently considered unlikely that a   PCC (for example, a normal Label Switching Router) will make a path   computation request to a PCE outside its own AS.  This means that the   PCECP relationships between ASes are limited to at most n squared   (n^2), where n is the number of peering PCEs in the various ASesBitar, et al.

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   (considered to be no greater than 100 in [RFC4657]).  In practice,   however, it is likely that only a few PCEs in one AS will be   designated for PCECP communications with a PCE in an adjacent AS, and   each of these will only have a few PCEs in the adjacent AS to choose   from.  A deployment model might place the PCEs as co-resident with   the ASBRs, resulting in a manageable scaling of the PCE-PCE   relationships.  Scaling considerations (Section 4.2), manageability   considerations (Section 4.3), and security considerations (Section 5)   should be examined in the light of these deployment expectations.4.  Detailed PCECP Requirements for Inter-AS G(MPLS) TE Path Computation   This section discusses detailed PCECP requirements for inter-AS   (G)MPLS TE LSPs.  Depending on the deployment environment, some or   all of the requirements described here may be utilized.   Specifically, some requirements are more applicable to inter-   provider inter-AS (G)MPLS TE operations than to intra-provider   operations.4.1.  PCE Communication Protocol Requirements   Requirements specific to inter-AS PCECP path computation requests and   responses are discussed in the following sections.4.1.1.  Requirements for Path Computation Requests   The following are inter-AS specific requirements for PCECP requests   for path computation:   1. [RFC4657] states the requirement for a priority level to be      associated with each path computation request.  This document does      not change that requirement.  However, PCECP should include a      mechanism that enables an inter-AS PCE to inform the requesting      inter-AS PCE of a change in the request priority level that may      have resulted from the application of a local policy.   2. A path computation request by an inter-AS PCE or a PCC to another      inter-AS PCE MUST be able to specify the sequence of ASes and/or      ASBRs across the network by providing ASBRs and/or ASes as hops in      the desired path of the TE LSP to the destination.  For instance,      an inter-AS PCE MUST be able to specify to the inter-AS PCE      serving the neighboring AS a preferred ASBR for exiting to that AS      and reach the destination.  That is, where multiple ASBRs exist,      the requester MUST be able to indicate a preference for one of      them.  The PCE must be able to indicate whether the specified ASBR      or AS is mandatory or non-mandatory on the (G)MPLS TE path.Bitar, et al.                Informational                      [Page 6]

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   3. PCECP MUST allow a requester to provide a list of ASes and/or      ASBRs to be excluded from the computed path.   4. A PCECP path computation request from one inter-AS PCE to another      MUST include the AS number of the requesting AS to enable the      correct application of local policy at the second inter-AS PCE.   5. A path computation request from a PCC to an inter-AS PCE or an      inter-AS PCE to another MUST be able to specify the need for      protection against node, link, or Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG)      failure using 1:1 detours or facility backup.  It MUST be possible      to request protection across all ASes or across specific ASes.   6. PCECP MUST support the disjoint path requirements as specified in      [RFC4657].  In addition, it MUST allow the specification of AS-      diversity for the computation of a set of two or more paths.   7. A PCECP path computation request message MUST be able to identify      the scope of diversified path computation to be end-to-end (i.e.,      between the endpoints of the (G)MPLS TE tunnel) or to be limited      to a specific AS.4.1.2.  Requirements for Path Computation Responses   The following are inter-AS specific requirements for PCECP responses   for path computation:   1. A PCECP path computation response from one inter-AS PCE to another      MUST be able to include both ASBRs and ASes in the computed path      while preserving path segment and topology confidentiality.   2. A PCECP path computation response from one inter-AS PCE to the      requesting inter-AS PCE MUST be able to carry an identifier for a      path segment it computes to preserve path segment and topology      confidentiality.  The objective of the identifier is to be      included in the TE LSP signaling, whose mechanism is out of scope      of this document, to be used for path expansion during LSP      signaling.   3. If a constraint for a desired ASBR (seeSection 4.1.1, requirement      2) cannot be satisfied by a PCE, PCECP SHOULD allow the PCE to      notify the requester of that fact as an error in a path      computation response.   4. A PCECP path computation response from an inter-AS PCE to a      requesting inter-AS PCE or a PCC MUST be able to carry a      cumulative inter-AS path cost.  Path cost normalization across      ASes is out of scope of this document.Bitar, et al.                Informational                      [Page 7]

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   5. A PCECP path computation response from an inter-AS PCE to a PCC      SHOULD be able to carry the intra-AS cost of the path segment      within the PCC AS.   6. A PCECP path computation response MUST be able to identify      diversified paths for the same (G)MPLS TE LSP.  End-to-end (i.e.,      between the two endpoints of the (G)MPLS TE tunnel) disjoint paths      are paths that do not share nodes, links, or SRLGs except for the      LSP head-end and tail-end.  In cases where diversified path      segments are desired within one or more ASes, the disjoint path      segments may share only the ASBRs of the first AS and the ASBR of      the last AS across these ASes.4.2.  Scalability and Performance Considerations   PCECP design for use in the inter-AS case SHOULD consider the   following criteria:   -  PCE message processing load.   -  Scalability as a function of the following parameters:      o  number of PCCs within the scope of an inter-AS PCE      o  number of intra-AS PCEs within the scope of an inter-AS PCE      o  number of peering inter-AS PCEs per inter-AS PCE   -  Added complexity caused by inter-AS features.4.3.  Management Considerations   [RFC4657] specifies generic requirements for PCECP management.  This   document specifies new requirements that apply to inter-AS   operations.   The PCECP MIB module MUST provide objects to control the behavior of   PCECP in inter-AS applications.  These objects include the ASes   within the scope of an inter-AS PCE, inter-AS PCEs in neighboring   ASes to which the requesting PCE will or will not communicate,   confidentiality, and policies.   The built-in diagnostic tools MUST enable failure detection and   status checking of PCC/PCE-PCE PCECP.  Diagnostic tools include   statistics collection on the historical behavior of PCECP as   specified in [RFC4657], but additionally it MUST be possible to   analyze these statistics on a neighboring AS basis (i.e., across the   inter-AS PCEs that belong to a neighboring AS).   The MIB module MUST support trap functions when thresholds are   crossed or when important events occur as stated in [RFC4657].  These   thresholds SHOULD be specifiable per neighbor AS as well as per peer   inter-AS PCE, and traps should be accordingly generated.Bitar, et al.                Informational                      [Page 8]

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   Basic liveliness detection for PCC/PCE-PCE PCECP is described in   [RFC4657].  The PCECP MIB module SHOULD allow control of liveliness   check behavior by providing a liveliness message frequency MIB   object, and this frequency object SHOULD be specified per inter-AS   PCE peer.  In addition, there SHOULD be a MIB object that specifies   the dead-interval as a multiplier of the liveliness message frequency   so that if no liveliness message is received within that time from an   inter-AS PCE, the inter-AS PCE is declared unreachable.4.4.  Confidentiality   Confidentiality mainly applies to inter-provider (inter-AS) PCE   communication.  It is about protecting the information exchanged   between PCEs and about protecting the topology information within an   SP's network.  Confidentiality rules may also apply among ASes owned   by a single SP.  Each SP will in most cases designate some PCEs for   inter-AS (G)MPLS TE path computation within its own administrative   domain and some other PCEs for inter-provider inter-AS (G)MPLS TE   path computation.  Among the inter-provider-scoped inter-AS PCEs in   each SP domain, there may also be a subset of the PCEs specifically   enabled for path computation across a specific set of ASes of   different peer SPs.   PCECP MUST allow an SP to hide from other SPs the set of hops within   its own ASes that are traversed by an inter-AS inter-provider TE LSP   (c.f.,Section 5.2.1 of [RFC4216]).  In a multi-SP administrative   domain environment, SPs may want to hide their network topologies for   security or commercial reasons.  Thus, for each inter-AS TE LSP path   segment an inter-AS PCE computes, it may return to the requesting   inter-AS PCE an inter-AS TE LSP path segment from its own ASes   without detailing the explicit intra-AS hops.  As stated earlier,   PCECP responses SHOULD be able to carry path-segment identifiers that   replace the details of that path segment.  The potential use of that   identifier for path expansion, for instance, during LSP signaling is   out of scope of this document.4.5.  Policy Controls Affecting Inter-AS PCECPSection 5.2.2 of [RFC4216] discusses the policy control requirements   for inter-AS RSVP-TE signaling at the AS boundaries for the   enforcement of interconnect agreements, attribute/parameter   translation and security hardening.   This section discusses those policy control requirements that are   similar to what are discussed insection 5.2.2 of [RFC4216] for   PCECP.  Please note that SPs may still require policy controls duringBitar, et al.                Informational                      [Page 9]

Inter-AS PCE Peering Policy Controls   An inter-AS PCE sends path computation requests to its neighboring   inter-AS PCEs, and an inter-AS PCE that receives such a request   enforces policies applicable to the sender of the request.  These   policies may include rewriting some of the parameters or rejecting   requests based on parameter values.  Such policies may be applied for   PCEs belonging to different SPs or to PCEs responsible for ASes   within a single SP administrative domain.  Parameters that might be   subject to policy include bandwidth, setup/holding priority, Fast   Reroute request, Differentiated Services Traffic Engineering (DS-TE)   Class Type (CT), and others as specified insection 5.2.2.1 of   [RFC4216].   For path computation requests that are not compliant with locally   configured policies, PCECP SHOULD enable a PCE to send an error   message to the requesting PCC or PCE indicating that the request has   been rejected because a specific parameter did not satisfy the local   policy.4.5.2.  Inter-AS PCE Re-Interpretation Policies   Each SP may have different definitions in its use of, for example,   DS-TE TE classes.  An inter-AS PCE receiving a path computation   request needs to interpret the parameters and constraints and adapt   them to the local environment.  Specifically, a request constructed   by a PCC or PCE in one AS may have parameters and constraints that   should be interpreted differently or translated by the receiving PCE   that is in a different AS.  A list of signaling parameters subject to   policy re-interpretation at AS borders can be found insection5.2.2.2 of [RFC4216], and the list for path computation request   parameters and constraints is the same.  In addition, the transit SPs   along the inter-AS TE path may be GMPLS transport providers, which   may require re-interpretation of MPLS-specific PCECP path computation   request objects in order to enable path computation over a GMPLS   network or vice versa.5.  Security Considerations   The PCECP is a communications protocol for use between potentially   remote entities (PCCs and PCEs) over an IP network.  Security   concerns arise in order to protect the PCC, PCE, and the information   they exchange.  [RFC4758] specifies requirements on the PCECP to   protect against spoofing, snooping, and DoS attacks.  That documentBitar, et al.                Informational                     [Page 10]

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   is concerned with general protocol requirements applicable to the   basic use of the PCECP.  This document is specific to the application   of the PCE architecture in an inter-AS environment, and so it is   appropriate to highlight the security considerations that apply in   that environment.   Security requirements that exist within a single administrative   domain become critical in the multi-AS case when the control of IP   traffic and access to the network may leave the authority of a single   administration.5.1.  Use and Distribution of Keys   How the participants in a PCECP session discover each other and the   need for the session is out of scope of this document.  It may be   through configuration or automatic discovery.  However, when a PCECP   session is established, the PCECP speakers MUST have mechanisms to   authenticate each other's identities and validate the data they   exchange.  They also SHOULD have mechanisms to protect the data that   they exchange via encryption.  Such mechanisms usually require the   use of keys, and so the PCECP MUST describe techniques for the   exchange and use of security keys.  Where inter-AS PCE discovery is   used, and PCECP security is required, automated key distribution   mechanisms MUST also be used.  Since such key exchange must   (necessarily) operate over an AS boundary, proper consideration needs   to be given to how inter-AS key exchanges may be carried out and how   the key exchange, itself, may be secured.  Key distribution   mechanisms MUST be defined with consideration of [RFC4107].  Where a   PCECP session is configured between a pair of inter-AS PCEs, a   security key may be manually set for that session.5.2.  Application of Policy   Policy forms an important part of the operation of PCEs in an inter-   AS environment as described inSection 4.5, especially when ASes are   administrated by different SPs.  A wider discussion of the   application of policy to the PCE architecture can be found in   [PCE-POLICY].   Policy may also form part of the security model for the PCECP and may   be particularly applicable to inter-AS path computation requests.  A   fundamental element of the application of policy at a PCE is the   identity of the requesting PCC/PCE.  This makes the use of   authentication described inSection 5.1 particularly important.   Where policy information is exchanged as part of the computation   request and/or response, the policy object is transparent to the   PCECP being delivered un-inspected and unmodified to the policy   component of a PCE or PCC.  Therefore, the policy components areBitar, et al.                Informational                     [Page 11]

RFC 5376            Inter-AS Requirements for PCECP        November 2008   responsible for protecting (for example, encrypting) the policy   information and using additional identification and authentication if   a higher level of validation is required than is provided by the base   protocol elements of the PCECP.5.3.  Confidentiality   The PCECP MUST provide a mechanism to preserve the confidentiality of   path segments computed by a PCE in one AS and provided in a   computation response to another AS.   Furthermore, a PCE SHOULD be provided with a mechanism to mask its   identity such that its presence in the path computation chain in a   cooperative PCE model (such as described in [BRPC]) cannot be derived   from the computed path.  This will help to protect the PCE from   targeted attacks.  Clearly, such confidentiality does not extend to   the PCECP peer (i.e., a PCC or another PCE) that invokes the PCE with   a path computation request.5.4.  Falsification of Information   In the PCE architecture, when PCEs cooperate, one PCE may return a   path computation result that is composed of multiple path segments,   each computed by a different PCE.  In the inter-AS case, each PCE may   belong to a different administrative domain, and the source PCC might   not know about the downstream PCEs, nor fully trust them.  Although   it is possible and RECOMMENDED to establish a chain of trust between   PCEs, this might not always be possible.  In this case, it becomes   necessary to guard against a PCE changing the information provided by   another downstream PCE.  Some mechanism MUST be available in the   PCECP, and echoed in the corresponding signaling, that allows an AS   to verify that the signaled path conforms to the path segment   computed by the local PCE and returned on the path computation   request.6.
