+RFC 5307 IS-IS Extensions for GMPLS October 2008
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ This document specifies extensions to the IS-IS routing protocol in
+ support of carrying link state information for Generalized Multi-
+ Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS). The set of required enhancements
+ to IS-IS are outlined in [GMPLS-ROUTING]. Support for unnumbered
+ interfaces assumes support for the "Point-to-Point Three-Way
+ Adjacency" IS-IS Option type [ISIS-3way].
+
+ In this section, we define the enhancements to the Traffic
+ Engineering (TE) properties of GMPLS TE links that can be announced
+ in IS-IS Link State Protocol Data Units.
+
+ In this document, we enhance the sub-TLVs for the extended IS
+ reachability TLV (see [ISIS-TE]) in support of GMPLS. Specifically,
+ we add the following sub-TLVs:
+
+ Sub-TLV Type Length Name
+ 4 8 Link Local/Remote Identifiers
+ 20 2 Link Protection Type
+ 21 variable Interface Switching Capability
+ Descriptor
+
+ We further add one new TLV to the TE TLVs:
+
+ TLV Type Length Name
+ 138 variable GMPLS-SRLG
+
+ 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 in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
+
+1.1. Link Local/Remote Identifiers
+
+ A Link Local Interface Identifier is a sub-TLV of the extended IS
+ reachability TLV. The type of this sub-TLV is 4, and the length is 8
+ octets. The value field of this sub-TLV contains 4 octets of Link
+ Local Identifier followed by 4 octets of Link Remote Identifier (see
+ Section 2.1, "Support for Unnumbered Links", of [GMPLS-ROUTING]). If
+ the Link Remote Identifier is unknown, it is set to 0.
+
+ The following illustrates encoding of the Value field of the Link
+ Local/Remote Identifiers sub-TLV.

+
+ The Link Local/Remote Identifiers sub-TLV MUST NOT occur more than
+ once within the extended IS reachability TLV. If the Link
+ Local/Remote Identifiers sub-TLV occurs more than once within the
+ extended IS reachability TLV, the receiver SHOULD ignore all these
+ sub-TLVs.
+
+1.2. Link Protection Type
+
+ The Link Protection Type is a sub-TLV (of type 20) of the extended IS
+ reachability TLV, with a length of 2 octets.
+
+ The following illustrates encoding of the Value field of the Link
+ Protection Type sub-TLV.

+
+The first octet is a bit vector describing the protection capabilities
+ of the link (see Section 2.2, "Link Protection Type", of
+ [GMPLS-ROUTING]). They are:
+
+ 0x01 Extra Traffic

+
+
+ The second octet SHOULD be set to zero by the sender, and SHOULD be
+ ignored by the receiver.
+
+ The Link Protection Type sub-TLV MUST NOT occur more than once within
+ the extended IS reachability TLV. If the Link Protection Type sub-
+ TLV occurs more than once within the extended IS reachability TLV,
+ the receiver SHOULD ignore all these sub-TLVs.
+
+1.3. Interface Switching Capability Descriptor
+
+ The Interface Switching Capability Descriptor is a sub-TLV (of type
+ 21) of the extended IS reachability TLV. The length is the length of
+ the value field in octets. The following illustrates encoding of the
+ Value field of the Interface Switching Capability Descriptor sub-TLV.

+
+
+ The Switching Capability (Switching Cap) field contains one of the
+ following values:
+
+ 1 Packet-Switch Capable-1 (PSC-1)
+ 2 Packet-Switch Capable-2 (PSC-2)
+ 3 Packet-Switch Capable-3 (PSC-3)
+ 4 Packet-Switch Capable-4 (PSC-4)
+ 51 Layer-2 Switch Capable (L2SC)
+ 100 Time-Division-Multiplex Capable (TDM)
+ 150 Lambda-Switch Capable (LSC)
+ 200 Fiber-Switch Capable (FSC)
+
+ The Encoding field contains one of the values specified in Section
+ 3.1.1 of [GMPLS-SIG].
+
+ Maximum Link State Protocol Data Unit (LSP) Bandwidth is encoded as a
+ list of eight 4-octet fields in the IEEE floating point format
+ [IEEE], with priority 0 first and priority 7 last. The units are
+ bytes (not bits!) per second.
+
+ The content of the Switching Capability specific information field
+ depends on the value of the Switching Capability field.
+
+ When the Switching Capability field is PSC-1, PSC-2, PSC-3, or PSC-4,
+ the Switching Capability specific information field includes Minimum
+ LSP Bandwidth and Interface MTU.

+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+
+ The Minimum LSP Bandwidth is encoded in a 4-octet field in the IEEE
+ floating point format. The units are bytes (not bits!) per second.
+ The Interface MTU is encoded as a 2-octet integer, and carries the
+ MTU value in the units of bytes.
+
+ When the Switching Capability field is L2SC, there is no Switching
+ Capability specific information field present.
+
+ When the Switching Capability field is TDM, the Switching Capability
+ specific information field includes Minimum LSP Bandwidth and an
+ indication whether the interface supports Standard or Arbitrary
+ SONET/SDH (Synchronous Optical Network / Synchronous Digital
+ Hierarchy).

+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+
+ The Minimum LSP Bandwidth is encoded in a 4-octet field in the IEEE
+ floating point format. The units are bytes (not bits!) per second.
+ The indication whether the interface supports Standard or Arbitrary
+ SONET/SDH is encoded as 1 octet. The value of this octet is 0 if the
+ interface supports Standard SONET/SDH, and 1 if the interface
+ supports Arbitrary SONET/SDH.
+
+ When the Switching Capability field is LSC, there is no Switching
+ Capability specific information field present.
+
+ To support interfaces that have more than one Interface Switching
+ Capability Descriptor (see Section 2.4, "Interface Switching
+ Capability Descriptor", of [GMPLS-ROUTING]) the Interface Switching
+ Capability Descriptor sub-TLV MAY occur more than once within the
+ extended IS reachability TLV.
+
+1.4. Shared Risk Link Group TLV
+
+ The Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) TLV (of type 138) contains a data
+ structure consisting of:
+
+ 6 octets of System ID
+ 1 octet of Pseudonode Number
+ 1 octet Flag
+ 4 octets of IPv4 interface address or 4 octets of a Link Local
+ Identifier
+ 4 octets of IPv4 neighbor address or 4 octets of a Link Remote
+ Identifier
+ (variable) list of SRLG values, where each element in the list
+ has 4 octets.
+
+ The following illustrates encoding of the Value field of the SRLG
+ TLV.

+
+ The neighbor is identified by its System ID (6 octets), plus one
+ octet to indicate the pseudonode number if the neighbor is on a LAN
+ interface.
+
+ The least significant bit of the Flag octet indicates whether the
+ interface is numbered (set to 1) or unnumbered (set to 0). All other
+ bits are reserved and should be set to 0.
+
+ The length of this TLV is 16 + 4 * (number of SRLG values).
+
+ This TLV carries the Shared Risk Link Group information (see Section
+ 2.3, "Shared Risk Link Group Information", of [GMPLS-ROUTING]).
+
+ The SRLG TLV MAY occur more than once within the IS-IS Link State
+ Protocol Data Units.
+
+1.5. Link Identifier for Unnumbered Interfaces
+
+ Link Identifiers are exchanged in the Extended Local Circuit ID field
+ of the "Point-to-Point Three-Way Adjacency" IS-IS Option type [ISIS-
+ 3way].
+
+2. Implications on Graceful Restart
+
+ The restarting node SHOULD follow the IS-IS restart procedures
+ [ISIS-RESTART] and the RSVP-TE restart procedures [GMPLS-RSVP].
+
+ When the restarting node is going to originate its IS-IS Link State
+ Protocol Data Units for TE links, these Link State Protocol Data
+ Units SHOULD be originated with 0 unreserved bandwidth, Traffic
+
+
+
+Kompella & Rekhter Standards Track [Page 7]
+
+RFC 5307 IS-IS Extensions for GMPLS October 2008
+
+
+ Engineering Default metric set to 0xffffff. Also, if the link has
+ LSC or FSC as its Switching Capability, then they SHOULD be
+ originated with 0 as Max LSP Bandwidth, until the node is able to
+ determine the amount of unreserved resources taking into account the
+ resources reserved by the already established LSPs that have been
+ preserved across the restart. Once the restarting node determines
+ the amount of unreserved resources, taking into account the resources
+ reserved by the already established LSPs that have been preserved
+ across the restart, the node SHOULD advertise these resources in its
+ Link State Protocol data units.
+
+ In addition, in the case of a planned restart prior to restarting,
+ the restarting node SHOULD originate the IS-IS Link State Protocol
+ data units for TE links with 0 as unreserved bandwidth. Also, if the
+ link has LSC or FSC as its Switching Capability, then they SHOULD be
+ originated with 0 as Max LSP Bandwidth. This would discourage new
+ LSP establishment through the restarting router.
+
+ Neighbors of the restarting node SHOULD continue to advertise the
+ actual unreserved bandwidth on the TE links from the neighbors to
+ that node.
+
+3. Security Considerations
+
+ This document specifies the contents of GMPLS TE TLVs in IS-IS. As
+ these TLVs are not used for SPF computation or normal routing, the
+ extensions specified here have no direct effect on IP routing.
+ Tampering with GMPLS TE TLVs may have an effect on the underlying
+ transport (optical and/or SONET/SDH) network. Mechanisms to secure
+ IS-IS Link State PDUs and/or the TE TLVs [ISIS-HMAC] can be used to
+ secure the GMPLS TE TLVs as well.
+
+ For a discussion of general security considerations for IS-IS, see
+ [ISIS-HMAC].
+
+4. IANA Considerations
+
+ This document defines the following new IS-IS TLV type that has been
+ reflected in the IS-IS TLV codepoint registry:
+
+ Type Description IIH LSP SNP
+ ---- ---------------------- --- --- ---
+ 138 Shared Risk Link Group n y n

+ level TLV 22 that have been reflected in the IS-IS sub-TLV registry
