Nanduri ebay Corporation L. Jalil Verizon May 2018OSPF Graceful Link ShutdownAbstract When a link is being prepared to be taken out of service, the traffic needs to be diverted from both ends of the link. Increasing the metric to the highest value on one side of the link is not sufficient to divert the traffic flowing in the other direction. It is useful for the routers in an OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 routing domain to be able to advertise a link as being in a graceful-shutdown state to indicate impending maintenance activity on the link. This information can be used by the network devices to reroute the traffic effectively. This document describes the protocol extensions to disseminate graceful-link-shutdown information in OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document.

RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20181. Introduction This document describes a mechanism for gracefully taking a link out of service while allowing it to be used if no other path is available. It also provides a mechanism to divert the traffic from both directions of the link. Many OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 deployments run on overlay networks provisioned by means of pseudowires or L2 circuits. Prior to devices in the underlying network going offline for maintenance, it is useful to divert the traffic away from the node before maintenance is actually performed. Since the nodes in the underlying network are not visible to OSPF, the existing stub-router mechanism described in [RFC6987] cannot be used. In a service provider's network, there may be many CE-to-CE connections that run over a single PE. It is cumbersome to change the metric on every CE-to-CE connection in both directions. This document provides a mechanism to change the metric of the link on the remote side and also use the link as a last-resort link if no alternate paths are available. An application specific to this use case is described in detail inSection 7.1. This document provides mechanisms to advertise graceful-link-shutdown state in the flexible encodings provided by "OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attribute Advertisement" [RFC7684] and the E-Router-LSA [RFC8362] for OSPFv3. Throughout this document, OSPF is used when the text applies to both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 is used when the text is specific to one version of the OSPF protocol.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 inBCP14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.2. Motivation The motivation of this document is to reduce manual intervention during maintenance activities. The following objectives help to accomplish this in a range of deployment scenarios. 1. Advertise impending maintenance activity so that traffic from both directions can be diverted away from the link. 2. Allow the solution to be backward compatible so that nodes that do not understand the new advertisement do not cause routing loops.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 2018 3. Advertise the maintenance activity to other nodes in the network so that Label Switched Path (LSP) ingress routers/controllers can learn about the impending maintenance activity and apply specific policies to reroute the LSPs for deployments based on Traffic Engineering (TE). 4. Allow the link to be used as a last-resort link to prevent traffic disruption when alternate paths are not available.3. Flooding Scope The graceful-link-shutdown information is flooded in an area-scoped Extended Link Opaque LSA [RFC7684] for OSPFv2 and in an E-Router-LSA for OSPFv3 [RFC8362]. The Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV MAY be processed by the head-end nodes or the controller as described in theSection 7. The procedures for processing the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV are described inSection 5.4. Protocol Extensions4.1. OSPFv2 Graceful-Link-Shutdown Sub-TLV The Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV identifies the link as being gracefully shutdown. It is advertised in the Extended Link TLV of the Extended Link Opaque LSA as defined in [RFC7684]. 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 1: Graceful-Link-Shutdown Sub-TLV for OSPFv2 Type: 7 Length: 04.2. Remote IPv4 Address Sub-TLV This sub-TLV specifies the IPv4 address of the remote endpoint on the link. It is advertised in the Extended Link TLV as defined in [RFC7684]. This sub-TLV is optional and MAY be advertised in an area-scoped Extended Link Opaque LSA to identify the link when there are multiple parallel links between two nodes.Hegde, et al.

Local/Remote Interface ID Sub-TLV This sub-TLV specifies Local and Remote Interface IDs. It is advertised in the Extended Link TLV as defined in [RFC7684]. This sub-TLV is optional and MAY be advertised in an area-scoped Extended Link Opaque LSA to identify the link when there are multiple parallel unnumbered links between two nodes. The Local Interface ID is generally readily available. One of the mechanisms to obtain the Remote Interface ID is described in [RFC4203]. 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Local Interface ID | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Remote Interface ID | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 3: Local/Remote Interface ID Sub-TLV Type: 9 Length: 8 Value: 4 octets of the Local Interface ID followed by 4 octets of the Remote Interface ID.Hegde, et al.

RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20184.4. OSPFv3 Graceful-Link-Shutdown Sub-TLV The Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV is carried in the Router-Link TLV as defined in [RFC8362] for OSPFv3. The Router-Link TLV contains the Neighbor Interface ID and can uniquely identify the link on the remote node. 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 4: Graceful-Link-Shutdown Sub-TLV for OSPFv3 Type: 8 Length: 04.5. BGP-LS Graceful-Link-Shutdown TLV BGP-LS as defined in [RFC7752] is a mechanism that distributes network information to the external entities using the BGP routing protocol. Graceful link shutdown is important link information that the external entities can use for various use cases as defined inSection 7. BGP Link Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) is used to carry the link information. A new TLV called "Graceful-Link- Shutdown" is defined to describe the link attribute corresponding to graceful-link-shutdown state. The TLV format is as described inSection 3.1 of [RFC7752]. There is no Value field, and the Length field is set to zero for this TLV. 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 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 5: Graceful-Link-Shutdown TLV for BGP-LS Type: 1121 Length: 0Hegde, et al.

RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20184.6. Distinguishing Parallel Links ++++++++++I.w I.y+++++++++++ |Router A|------------------|Router B | | |------------------| | ++++++++++I.x I.z+++++++++++ Figure 6: Parallel Links Consider two routers, A and B, connected with two parallel point-to-point interfaces. I.w and I.x represent the interface address on Router A's side, and I.y and I.z represent interface addresses on Router B's side. The Extended Link Opaque LSA as defined in [RFC7684] describes links using Link Type, Link ID, and Link Data. For example, a link with the address I.w is described as below on Router A. Link Type = Point-to-point Link ID = Router ID of B Link Data = I.w A third node (controller or head-end) in the network cannot distinguish the interface on Router B, which is connected to this particular Interface on Router A based on the link information described above. The interface with address I.y or I.z could be chosen due to this ambiguity. In such cases, a Remote IPv4 Address sub-TLV should be originated and added to the Extended Link TLV. The use cases as described inSection 7 require controller or head-end nodes to interpret the graceful-link-shutdown information and hence the need for the Remote IPv4 Address sub-TLV. I.y is carried in the Extended Link TLV, which unambiguously identifies the interface on the remote side. The OSPFv3 Router-Link TLV as described in [RFC8362] contains an Interface ID and a neighbor's Interface ID, which can uniquely identify connecting the interface on the remote side; hence, OSPFv3 does not require a separate remote IPv6 address to be advertised along with the OSPFv3 Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20185. Elements of Procedure As defined in [RFC7684], every link on the node will have a separate Extended Link Opaque LSA. The node that has the link to be taken out of service MUST advertise the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV in the Extended Link TLV of the Extended Link Opaque LSA for OSPFv2, as defined in [RFC7684], and in the Router-Link TLV of E-Router-LSA for OSPFv3. The Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV indicates that the link identified by the sub-TLV is subjected to maintenance. For the purposes of changing the metric OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 Router-LSAs need to be reoriginated. To change the Traffic Engineering metric, TE Opaque LSAs in OSPFv2 [RFC3630] and Intra-area-TE-LSAs in OSPFv3 [RFC5329] need to be reoriginated. The graceful-link-shutdown information is advertised as a property of the link and is flooded through the area. This information can be used by ingress routers or controllers to take special actions. An application specific to this use case is described inSection 7.2. When a link is ready to carry traffic, the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV MUST be removed from the Extended Link TLV/Router-Link TLV, and the corresponding LSAs MUST be readvertised. Similarly, the metric MUST be set to original values, and the corresponding LSAs MUST be readvertised. The procedures described in this document may be used to divert the traffic away from the link in scenarios other than link-shutdown or link-replacement activity. The precise action taken by the remote node at the other end of the link identified for graceful-shutdown depends on the link type.5.1. Point-to-Point Links The node that has the link to be taken out of service MUST set the metric of the link to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff) and reoriginate its Router-LSA. The Traffic Engineering metric of the link SHOULD be set to (0xffffffff), and the node SHOULD reoriginate the corresponding TE Link Opaque LSAs. When a Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV is received for a point-to-point link, the remote node MUST identify the local link that corresponds to the graceful-shutdown link and set its metric to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff), and the remote node MUST reoriginate its Router-LSA with the changed metric. When TE is enabled, the Traffic Engineering metric of the link SHOULD be set to (0xffffffff) and follow the procedures in [RFC5817]. Similarly, theHegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 2018 remote node SHOULD set the Traffic Engineering metric of the link to 0xffffffff and SHOULD reoriginate the TE Link Opaque LSA for the link with the new value. The Extended Link Opaque LSAs and the Extended Link TLV are not scoped for multi-topology [RFC4915]. In multi-topology deployments [RFC4915], the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV advertised in an Extended Link Opaque LSA corresponds to all the topologies that include the link. The receiver node SHOULD change the metric in the reverse direction for all the topologies that include the remote link and reoriginate the Router-LSA as defined in [RFC4915]. When the originator of the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV purges the Extended Link Opaque LSA or reoriginates it without the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV, the remote node must reoriginate the appropriate LSAs with the metric and TE metric values set to their original values.5.2. Broadcast/NBMA Links Broadcast or Non-Broadcast Multi-Access (NBMA) networks in OSPF are represented by a star topology where the Designated Router (DR) is the central point to which all other routers on the broadcast or NBMA network logically connect. As a result, routers on the broadcast or NBMA network advertise only their adjacency to the DR. Routers that do not act as DRs do not form or advertise adjacencies with each other. For the broadcast links, the MaxLinkMetric on the remote link cannot be changed since all the neighbors are on same link. Setting the link cost to MaxLinkMetric would impact all paths that traverse any of the neighbors connected on that broadcast link. The node that has the link to be taken out of service MUST set the metric of the link to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff) and reoriginate the Router-LSA. The Traffic Engineering metric of the link SHOULD be set to (0xffffffff), and the node SHOULD reoriginate the corresponding TE Link Opaque LSAs. For a broadcast link, the two-part metric as described in [RFC8042] is used. The node originating the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV MUST set the metric in the Network-to-Router Metric sub-TLV to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff) for OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 and reoriginate the corresponding LSAs. The nodes that receive the two-part metric should follow the procedures described in [RFC8042]. The backward-compatibility procedures described in [RFC8042] should be followed to ensure loop-free routing.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20185.3. Point-to-Multipoint Links Operation for the point-to-multipoint (P2MP) links is similar to the point-to-point links. When a Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV is received for a point-to-multipoint link, the remote node MUST identify the neighbor that corresponds to the graceful-shutdown link and set its metric to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff). The remote node MUST reoriginate the Router-LSA with the changed metric for the corresponding neighbor.5.4. Unnumbered Interfaces Unnumbered interfaces do not have a unique IP address and borrow their address from other interfaces. [RFC2328] describes procedures to handle unnumbered interfaces in the context of the Router-LSA. We apply a similar procedure to the Extended Link TLV advertising the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV in order to handle unnumbered interfaces. The Link-Data field in the Extended Link TLV includes the Local Interface ID instead of the IP address. The Local/Remote Interface ID sub-TLV MUST be advertised when there are multiple parallel unnumbered interfaces between two nodes. One of the mechanisms to obtain the Interface ID of the remote side is defined in [RFC4203].5.5. Hybrid Broadcast and P2MP Interfaces Hybrid Broadcast and P2MP interfaces represent a broadcast network modeled as P2MP interfaces. [RFC6845] describes procedures to handle these interfaces. Operation for the Hybrid interfaces is similar to operation for the P2MP interfaces. When a Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV is received for a hybrid link, the remote node MUST identify the neighbor that corresponds to the graceful-shutdown link and set its metric to MaxLinkMetric (0xffff). All the remote nodes connected to the originator MUST reoriginate the Router-LSA with the changed metric for the neighbor.6. Backward Compatibility The mechanisms described in the document are fully backward compatible. It is required that the node adverting the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV as well as the node at the remote end of the graceful-shutdown link support the extensions described herein for the traffic to be diverted from the graceful-shutdown link. If the remote node doesn't support the capability, it will still use the graceful-shutdown link, but there are no other adverse effects. In the case of broadcast links using two-part metrics, the backward- compatibility procedures as described in [RFC8042] are applicable.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20187. Applications7.1. Overlay Network Many service providers offer L2 services to a customer connecting different locations. The customer's IGP protocol creates a seamless private network (overlay network) across the locations for the customer. Service providers want to offer graceful-shutdown functionality when the PE device is taken out for maintenance. There can be large number of customers attached to a PE node, and the remote endpoints for these L2 attachment circuits are spread across the service provider's network. Changing the metric for all corresponding L2 circuits in both directions is a tedious and error- prone process. The graceful-link-shutdown feature simplifies the process by increasing the metric on the CE-CE overlay link so that traffic in both directions is diverted away from the PE undergoing maintenance. The graceful-link-shutdown feature allows the link to be used as a last-resort link so that traffic is not disrupted when alternate paths are not available. ------PE3---------------PE4------CE3 / \ / \ CE1---------PE1----------PE2---------CE2 \ \ ------CE4 CE: Customer Edge PE: Provider Edge Figure 7: Overlay Network In the example shown in Figure 7, when the PE1 node is going out of service for maintenance, a service provider sets the PE1 to stub- router state and communicates the pending maintenance action to the overlay customer networks. The mechanisms used to communicate between PE1 and CE1 is outside the scope of this document. CE1 sets the graceful-link-shutdown state on its links connecting CE3, CE2, and CE4, changes the metric to MaxLinkMetric, and reoriginates the corresponding LSA. The remote end of the link at CE3, CE2, and CE4 also set the metric on the link to MaxLinkMetric, and the traffic from both directions gets diverted away from PE1.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20187.2. Controller-Based Deployments In controller-based deployments where the controller participates in the IGP protocol, the controller can also receive the graceful-link-shutdown information as a warning that link maintenance is imminent. Using this information, the controller can find alternate paths for traffic that uses the affected link. The controller can apply various policies and reroute the LSPs away from the link undergoing maintenance. If there are no alternate paths satisfying the constraints, the controller might temporarily relax those constraints and put the service on a different path. Increasing the link metric alone does not specify the maintenance activity as the metric could increase in events such as LDP-IGP synchronization. An explicit indication from the router using the Graceful-Link-Shutdown sub-TLV is needed to inform the controller or head-end routers. _____________ | | --------------| Controller |-------------- | |____________ | | | | |--------- Primary Path ------------------| PE1---------P1----------------P2---------PE2 | | | | |________P3________| Alternate Path Figure 8: Controller-Based Traffic Engineering In the above example, the PE1->PE2 LSP is set up to satisfy a constraint of 10 Gbps bandwidth on each link. The links P1->P3 and P3->P2 have only 1 Gbps capacity, and there is no alternate path satisfying the bandwidth constraint of 10 Gbps. When the P1->P2 link is being prepared for maintenance, the controller receives the graceful-link-shutdown information, as there is no alternate path available that satisfies the constraints, and the controller chooses a path that is less optimal and temporarily sets up an alternate path via P1->P3->P2. Once the traffic is diverted, the P1->P2 link can be taken out of service for maintenance/upgrade.Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 8379 OSPF Graceful Link Shutdown May 20187.3. L3VPN Services and Sham Links Many service providers offer Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) services to customers, and CE-PE links run OSPF [RFC4577]. When the PE is taken out of service for maintenance, all the links on the PE can be set to graceful-link-shutdown state, which will guarantee that the traffic to/from dual-homed CEs gets diverted. The interaction between OSPF and BGP is outside the scope of this document. A mechanism based on [RFC6987] with summaries and externals that are advertised with high metrics could also be used to achieve the same functionality when implementations support high metrics advertisement for summaries and externals. Another useful use case is when ISPs provide sham-link services to customers [RFC4577]. When the PE goes out of service for maintenance, all sham links on the PE can be set to graceful-link- shutdown state, and traffic can be diverted from both ends without having to touch the configurations on the remote end of the sham links.7.4. Hub and Spoke Deployment OSPF is largely deployed in Hub and Spoke deployments with a large number of Spokes connecting to the Hub. It is a general practice to deploy multiple Hubs with all Spokes connecting to these Hubs to achieve redundancy. The mechanism defined in [RFC6987] can be used to divert the Spoke-to-Spoke traffic from the overloaded Hub router. The traffic that flows from Spokes via the Hub into an external network may not be diverted in certain scenarios. When a Hub node goes down for maintenance, all links on the Hub can be set to graceful-link-shutdown state, and traffic gets diverted from the Spoke sites as well without having to make configuration changes on the Spokes.8. Security Considerations This document utilizes the OSPF packets and LSAs described in [RFC2328] , [RFC3630], [RFC5329], and [RFC5340]. The authentication procedures described in [RFC2328] for OSPFv2 and [RFC4552] for OSPFv3 are applicable to this document as well. This document does not introduce any further security issues other than those discussed in [RFC2328] and [RFC5340].Hegde, et al. Standards Track [Page 13]
