+RFC 7883 Advertising S-BFD Discriminators in IS-IS July 2016
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ [RFC7880] defines a simplified mechanism for using Bidirectional
+ Forwarding Detection (BFD) [RFC5880]. This mechanism depends on
+ network nodes knowing the BFD Discriminators that each node in the
+ network has reserved for this purpose. The use of the Intermediate
+ System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) [IS-IS] protocol is one
+ possible means of advertising these discriminators.
+
+ 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].
+
+2. Encoding Format
+
+ The IS-IS Router CAPABILITY TLV as defined in [RFC4971] will be used
+ to advertise Seamless BFD (S-BFD) Discriminators. A new sub-TLV is
+ defined as described below. S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLVs are
+ formatted as specified in [RFC5305].
+
+ No. of octets
+ +-----------------------------+
+ | Type (20) | 1
+ +-----------------------------+
+ | Length (multiple of 4) | 1
+ +-----------------------------+
+ | Discriminator Value(s) | 4/Discriminator
+ : :
+ +-----------------------------+
+
+ The inclusion of an S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLV in a Router
+ CAPABILITY TLV is optional. Multiple S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLVs
+ MAY be advertised by an IS. How a given discriminator is mapped to a
+ specific use case when multiple S-BFD Discriminators are advertised
+ is out of scope for this document.
+
+ S-BFD Discriminator advertisements MAY be flooded within an area or
+ throughout the domain, using the procedures specified in [RFC4971].
+ The appropriate flooding scope depends on the intended use of S-BFD.
+ If S-BFD usage will be exclusively within a Level-1 area, then area
+ scope is appropriate. If S-BFD usage will span different Level-1
+ areas, then domain scope is appropriate.

+
+
+3. IANA Considerations
+
+ IANA has added a new sub-TLV in the "Sub-TLVs for TLV 242" registry.
+ The registration is as follows:
+
+ Value Description
+ ----- --------------------
+ 20 S-BFD Discriminators
+
+4. Security Considerations
+
+ Security concerns for IS-IS are addressed in [IS-IS], [RFC5304], and
+ [RFC5310]. The new S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLV does not introduce
+ any new security risks for IS-IS.
+
+ Advertising the S-BFD Discriminators makes it possible for attackers
+ to initiate S-BFD sessions using the advertised information. The
+ vulnerabilities this poses and how to mitigate them are discussed in
+ [RFC7880].
