+
+1. Introduction
+
+ An IGP Flexible Algorithm allows IGPs to compute constraint-based
+ paths. The base IGP Flexible Algorithm specification describes how
+ it is used with Segment Routing (SR) data planes: SR MPLS and SRv6.
+
+ An IGP Flexible Algorithm as specified in [RFC9350] computes a
+ constraint-based path to:
+
+ * All Flexible-Algorithm-specific Prefix Segment Identifiers (SIDs)
+ [RFC8402].
+
+ * All Flexible-Algorithm-specific SRv6 Locators [RFC8986].
+
+ Therefore, Flexible Algorithm cannot be deployed in the absence of SR
+ or SRv6.
+
+ This document extends Flexible Algorithm, allowing it to compute
+ paths to IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes.
+
+2. 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 in
+ BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
+ capitals, as shown here.
+
+3. Use Case Example
+
+ In this section, we illustrate one use case that motivates this
+ specification: if a specific service can be identified by an IP
+ address, traffic to it can use constraint-based paths computed
+ according to this specification.
+
+ The System architecture for the 5G System [TS.23.501-3GPP] describes
+ the N3 interface between gNodeB and UPF (User Plane Function).
+
+ Mobile networks are becoming more and more IP-centric. Each end-user
+ session from a gNodeB can be destined to a specific UPF based on the
+ session requirements. For example, some sessions require high
+ bandwidth, while others need to be routed along the lowest latency
+ path. Each UPF is assigned a unique IP address. As a result,
+ traffic for different sessions is destined to a different destination
+ IP address.
+
+ The IP address allocated to the UPF can be associated with an
+ algorithm. The mobile user traffic is then forwarded along the path
+ based on the algorithm-specific metric and constraints. As a result,
+ traffic can be sent over a path that is optimized for minimal latency
+ or highest bandwidth. This mechanism is used to achieve Service
+ Level Agreement (SLA) appropriate for a user session.
+
+4. Advertising Flexible Algorithm Definitions (FADs)
+
+ To guarantee loop-free forwarding, all routers that participate in a
+ Flex-Algorithm MUST agree on the Flexible Algorithm Definition (FAD).
+
+ Selected nodes within the IGP domain MUST advertise FADs as described
+ in Sections 5, 6, and 7 of [RFC9350].
+
+5. Advertising IP Flexible Algorithm Participation
+
+ A node may use various algorithms when calculating paths to nodes and
+ prefixes. Algorithm values are defined in the "IGP Algorithm Types"
+ registry [IANA-ALG].
+
+ Only a node that is participating in a Flex-Algorithm is:
+
+ * Able to compute a path for such Flex-Algorithm
+
+ * Part of the topology for such Flex-Algorithm
+
+ Flexible Algorithm participation MUST be advertised for each Flexible
+ Algorithm data plane independently, as specified in [RFC9350]. Using
+ Flexible Algorithm for regular IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes represents an
+ independent Flexible Algorithm data plane; as such, the Flexible
+ Algorithm participation for the IP Flexible Algorithm data plane MUST
+ be signaled independently of any other Flexible Algorithm data plane
+ (e.g., SR).
+
+ All routers in an IGP domain participate in default algorithm 0.
+ Advertisement of participation in IP Flexible Algorithm does not
+ impact the router participation in default algorithm 0.
+
+ Advertisement of participation in IP Flexible Algorithm does not
+ impact the router participation signaled for other data planes. For
+ example, it is possible that a router participates in a particular
+ Flex-Algorithm for the IP data plane but does not participate in the
+ same Flex-Algorithm for the SR data plane.
+
+ The following sections describe how the IP Flexible Algorithm
+ participation is advertised in IGP protocols.
+
+5.1. The IS-IS IP Algorithm Sub-TLV
+
+ The IS-IS [ISO10589] IP Algorithm Sub-TLV is a sub-TLV of the IS-IS
+ Router Capability TLV [RFC7981] and 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 |
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ | Algorithm 1 | Algorithm 2 | Algorithm ... | Algorithm n |
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+
+ Figure 1: IS-IS IP Algorithm Sub-TLV
+
+ Type (1 octet): IP Algorithm Sub-TLV (Value 29)
+
+ Length (1 octet): Variable
+
+ Algorithm (1 octet): Value from 128 to 255
+
+ The IP Algorithm Sub-TLV MUST be propagated throughout the level and
+ MUST NOT be advertised across level boundaries. Therefore, the S bit
+ in the Router Capability TLV, in which the IP Algorithm Sub-TLV is
+ advertised, MUST NOT be set.
+
+ The IP Algorithm Sub-TLV is optional. It MUST NOT be advertised more
+ than once at a given level. A router receiving multiple IP Algorithm
+ sub-TLVs from the same originator MUST select the first advertisement
+ in the lowest-numbered Link State PDU (LSP), and subsequent instances
+ of the IP Algorithm Sub-TLV MUST be ignored.
+
+ Algorithms outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255) MUST be ignored
+ by the receiver. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ The IP Flex-Algorithm participation advertised in the IS-IS IP
+ Algorithm Sub-TLV is topology independent. When a router advertises
+ participation in the IS-IS IP Algorithm Sub-TLV, the participation
+ applies to all topologies in which the advertising node participates.
+
+5.2. The OSPF IP Algorithm TLV
+
+ The OSPF [RFC2328] IP Algorithm TLV is a top-level TLV of the Router
+ Information Opaque Link State Advertisement (LSA) [RFC7770] and 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 |
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ | Algorithm 1 | Algorithm... | Algorithm n | |
+ +- -+
+ | |
+ + +
+
+ Figure 2: OSPF IP Algorithm TLV
+
+ Type (2 octets): IP Algorithm TLV (21)
+
+ Length( 2 octets): Variable
+
+ Algorithm (1 octet): Value from 128 to 255
+
+ The IP Algorithm TLV is optional. It MUST only be advertised once in
+ the Router Information LSA.
+
+ Algorithms outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255) MUST be ignored
+ by the receiver. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ When multiple IP Algorithm TLVs are received from a given router, the
+ receiver MUST use the first occurrence of the TLV in the Router
+ Information LSA. If the IP Algorithm TLV appears in multiple Router
+ Information LSAs that have different flooding scopes, the IP
+ Algorithm TLV in the Router Information LSA with the area-scoped
+ flooding scope MUST be used. If the IP Algorithm TLV appears in
+ multiple Router Information LSAs that have the same flooding scope,
+ the IP Algorithm TLV in the Router Information LSA with the
+ numerically smallest Instance ID (Opaque ID for OSPFv2 or Link State
+ ID for OSPFv3) MUST be used, and subsequent instances of the IP
+ Algorithm TLV MUST be ignored.
+
+ The Router Information LSA can be advertised at any of the defined
+ flooding scopes (link, area, or Autonomous System (AS)). For the
+ purpose of IP Algorithm TLV advertisement, area- or AS-scoped
+ flooding is REQUIRED. The AS flooding scope SHOULD NOT be used
+ unless local configuration policy on the originating router indicates
+ domain-wide flooding.
+
+ The IP Flexible Algorithm participation advertised in the OSPF IP
+ Algorithm TLV is topology independent. When a router advertises
+ participation in OSPF IP Algorithm TLV, the participation applies to
+ all topologies in which the advertising node participates.
+
+6. Advertising IP Flexible Algorithm Reachability
+
+ To be able to associate the prefix with the Flex-Algorithm, the
+ existing prefix reachability advertisements cannot be used, because
+ they advertise the prefix reachability in default algorithm 0.
+ Instead, new IP Flexible Algorithm reachability advertisements are
+ defined in IS-IS and OSPF.
+
+ The M-flag in the FAD is not applicable to IP Algorithm Prefixes.
+ Any IP Algorithm Prefix advertisement includes the Algorithm and
+ Metric fields. When an IP Algorithm Prefix is advertised between
+ areas or domains, the metric field in the IP Algorithm Prefix
+ advertisement MUST be used irrespective of the M-flag in the FAD
+ advertisement.
+
+6.1. The IS-IS IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV
+
+ The IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability top-level TLV is defined for
+ advertising IPv4 Flexible Algorithm Prefix Reachability in IS-IS.
+
+ This new TLV shares the sub-TLV space defined for TLVs Advertising
+ Prefix Reachability.
+
+ The IS-IS IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV 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

+
+ Figure 3: IS-IS IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV
+
+ Type (1 octet): IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV (Value 126)
+
+ Length (1 octet): Variable based on number of prefix entries encoded

+ transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt.
+
+ MTID (12 bits): Multitopology Identifier as defined in [RFC5120].
+ Note that the value 0 is legal.
+
+ Followed by one or more prefix entries of the form:
+
+ 0 1 2 3

+
+ D-flag: The D-flag is described as the "up/down bit" in
+ Section 4.1 of [RFC5305]. When the Prefix is leaked from level
+ 2 to level 1, the D bit MUST be set. Otherwise, this bit MUST
+ be clear. Prefixes with the D bit set MUST NOT be leaked from
+ level 1 to level 2. This is to prevent looping.
+
+ The remaining bits: Reserved for future use. They MUST be set to
+ zero on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt.

+
+ If the Algorithms in the IS-IS IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV
+ are outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255), the IS-IS IPv4
+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV MUST be ignored by the receiver.
+ This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ If a router receives multiple IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ advertisements for the same prefix from the same originator, it MUST
+ select the first advertisement in the lowest-numbered LSP and ignore
+ any subsequent IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability advertisements for
+ the same prefix.
+
+ If a router receives multiple IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ advertisements for the same prefix, from different originators, where
+ all of them do not advertise the same algorithm, it MUST ignore all
+ of them and MUST NOT install any forwarding entries based on these
+ advertisements. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in both an IPv4
+ Prefix Reachability TLV [RFC5305] [RFC5120] and an IPv4 Algorithm
+ Prefix Reachability TLV, the IPv4 Prefix Reachability advertisement
+ MUST be preferred when installing entries in the forwarding plane.
+
+6.2. The IS-IS IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV
+
+ The IS-IS IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV is identical to the
+ IS-IS IPv4 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV, except that it has a
+ distinct type. The type is 127.
+
+ If the Algorithms in the IS-IS IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV
+ are outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255), the IS-IS IPv6
+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV MUST be ignored by the receiver.
+ This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ If a router receives multiple IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ advertisements for the same prefix from the same originator, it MUST
+ select the first advertisement in the lowest-numbered LSP and ignore
+ any subsequent IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability advertisements for
+ the same prefix.
+
+ If a router receives multiple IPv6 Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ advertisements for the same prefix, from different originators, where
+ all of them do not advertise the same algorithm, it MUST ignore all
+ of them and MUST NOT install any forwarding entries based on these
+ advertisements. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in both an IPv6
+ Prefix Reachability TLV [RFC5308] [RFC5120] and an IPv6 Algorithm
+ Prefix Reachability TLV, the IPv6 Prefix Reachability advertisement
+ MUST be preferred when installing entries in the forwarding plane.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in both an IS-IS
+ SRv6 Locator TLV [RFC9352] and in IS-IS IPv6 Algorithm Prefix
+ Reachability TLV, the receiver MUST ignore both of them and MUST NOT
+ install any forwarding entries based on these advertisements. This
+ situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+6.3. The OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV
+
+ A new sub-TLV of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV is defined for
+ advertising IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability in OSPFv2, the OSPFv2 IP
+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV.
+
+ The OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV 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

+
+ The remaining bits: Reserved for future use. They MUST be set to
+ zero on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt.
+
+ Reserved (1 octet): SHOULD be set to 0 on transmission and MUST be
+ ignored on reception.
+
+ Metric (4 octets): The algorithm-specific metric value. The metric
+ value of 0XFFFFFFFF MUST be considered unreachable.
+
+ If the Algorithms in the OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-
+ TLV are outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255), the OSPFv2 IP
+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the
+ receiver. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ An OSPFv2 router receiving multiple OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix
+ Reachability Sub-TLVs in the same OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV MUST
+ select the first advertisement of this sub-TLV and MUST ignore all
+ remaining occurrences of this sub-TLV in the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix
+ TLV.
+
+ An OSPFv2 router receiving multiple OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix
+ Reachability TLVs for the same prefix from different originators
+ where all of them do not advertise the same algorithm MUST ignore all
+ of them and MUST NOT install any forwarding entries based on these
+ advertisements. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in any of the LSAs
+ advertising the prefix reachability for algorithm 0 and in an OSPFv2
+ IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV, only the prefix
+ reachability advertisement for algorithm 0 MUST be used, and all
+ occurrences of the OSPFv2 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV
+ MUST be ignored.
+
+ When computing the IP Algorithm Prefix reachability in OSPFv2, only
+ information present in the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV MUST be used.
+ There will not be any information advertised for the IP Algorithm
+ Prefix in any of the OSPFv2 LSAs that advertise prefix reachability
+ for algorithm 0. For the IP Algorithm Prefix, the OSPFv2 Extended
+ Prefix TLV is used to advertise the prefix reachability, unlike for
+ algorithm 0 prefixes, where the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV is only
+ used to advertise additional attributes -- but not the reachability
+ itself.
+
+6.3.1. The OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV
+
+ A new sub-TLV of the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix TLV is defined for
+ advertising IP Forwarding Address, the OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address
+ Sub-TLV.
+
+ The OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV 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

+
+ Length (2 octets): 4
+
+ Forwarding Address (4 octets): The same as defined in Appendix A.4.5
+ of [RFC2328]
+
+ The OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV MUST NOT be used for
+ computing algorithm 0 prefix reachability and MUST be ignored for
+ algorithm 0 prefixes.
+
+ The OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV is optional. If it is not
+ present, the forwarding address for computing the IP Algorithm Prefix
+ reachability is assumed to be equal to 0.0.0.0.
+
+ The OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV is only applicable to AS
+ External and Not-So-Stubby Area (NSSA) External route types. If the
+ OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV is advertised in the OSPFv2
+ Extended Prefix TLV that has the Route Type field set to any other
+ type, the OSPFv2 IP Forwarding Address Sub-TLV MUST be ignored.
+
+6.4. The OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV
+
+ The OSPFv3 [RFC5340] IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV is
+ defined for advertisement of the IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability in
+ OSPFv3.
+
+ The OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV is a sub-TLV of
+ the following OSPFv3 TLVs defined in [RFC8362]:
+
+ * Intra-Area-Prefix TLV
+
+ * Inter-Area-Prefix TLV
+
+ * External-Prefix TLV
+
+ The format of OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV is
+ shown below:
+
+ 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

+ value of 0XFFFFFFFF MUST be considered unreachable.
+
+ If the Algorithms in the OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-
+ TLV are outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255), the OSPFv3 IP
+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the
+ receiver. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ When the OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV is present,
+ the NU-bit in the PrefixOptions field of the parent TLV MUST be set.
+ This is needed to prevent the OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ advertisement from contributing to the base algorithm reachability.
+ If the NU-bit in the PrefixOptions field of the parent TLV is not
+ set, the OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the
+ receiver.
+
+ The metric value in the parent TLV is RECOMMENDED to be set to
+ LSInfinity [RFC2328]. This recommendation is provided as a network
+ troubleshooting convenience; if it is not followed, the protocol will
+ still function correctly.
+
+ An OSPFv3 router receiving multiple OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix
+ Reachability Sub-TLVs in the same parent TLV MUST select the first
+ advertisement of this sub-TLV and MUST ignore all remaining
+ occurrences of this sub-TLV in the parent TLV.
+
+ An OSPFv3 router receiving multiple OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix
+ Reachability TLVs for the same prefix from different originators
+ where all of them do not advertise the same algorithm MUST ignore all
+ of them and MUST NOT install any forwarding entries based on these
+ advertisements. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in any of the LSAs
+ advertising the prefix reachability for algorithm 0 and in an OSPFv3
+ OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV, only the prefix
+ reachability advertisement for algorithm 0 MUST be used, and all
+ occurrences of the OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability Sub-TLV
+ MUST be ignored.
+
+ In cases where a prefix advertisement is received in both an OSPFv3
+ SRv6 Locator TLV and in an OSPFv3 IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability
+ Sub-TLV, the receiver MUST ignore both of them and MUST NOT install
+ any forwarding entries based on these advertisements. This situation
+ SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+6.5. The OSPF IP Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric Sub-TLV
+
+ [RFC9350] defines the OSPF Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric (FAAM) Sub-
+ TLV that is used by an OSPFv2 or an OSPFv3 Area Border Router (ABR)
+ to advertise a Flex-Algorithm-specific metric associated with the
+ corresponding ASBR LSA.
+
+ As described in [RFC9350], each data plane signals its participation
+ independently. IP Flexible Algorithm participation is signaled
+ independent of SR Flexible Algorithm participation. As a result, the
+ calculated topologies for SR and IP Flexible Algorithm could be
+ different. Such a difference prevents the usage of FAAM for the
+ purpose of the IP Flexible Algorithm.
+
+ The OSPF IP Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric (IPFAAM) Sub-TLV is
+ defined for the advertisement of the IP Flex-Algorithm-specific
+ metric associated with an ASBR by the ABR.
+
+ The IPFAAM Sub-TLV is a sub-TLV of the:
+
+ * OSPFv2 Extended Inter-Area ASBR TLV, as defined in [RFC9350]
+
+ * OSPFv3 Inter-Area-Router TLV, as defined in [RFC8362]
+
+ The OSPF IPFAAM Sub-TLV 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

+ Figure 8: OSPF IP Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric Sub-TLV
+
+ Where:
+
+ Type (2 octets): 2 (allocated by IANA) for OSPFv2, 36 for OSPFv3
+
+ Length (2 octets): 8
+
+ Algorithm (1 octet): Associated Algorithm from 128 to 255
+
+ Reserved (3 octets): SHOULD be set to 0 on transmission and MUST be
+ ignored on reception
+
+ Metric (4 octets): The algorithm-specific metric value
+
+ If the Algorithms in the OSPF IP Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric Sub-
+ TLV are outside the Flex-Algorithm range (128-255), the OSPF IP
+ Flexible Algorithm ASBR Metric Sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the
+ receiver. This situation SHOULD be logged as an error.
+
+ The usage of the IPFAAM Sub-TLV is similar to the usage of the FAAM
+ Sub-TLV defined in [RFC9350], but it is used to advertise IP Flexible
+ Algorithm metric.
+
+ An OSPF ABR MUST include the OSPF IPFAAM Sub-TLVs as part of any IP
+ Flexible Algorithm ASBR reachability advertisement between areas.
+
+ The FAAM Sub-TLV as defined in [RFC9350] MUST NOT be used during IP
+ Flexible Algorithm path calculation; the IPFAAM Sub-TLV MUST be used
+ instead.
+
+7. Calculating of IP Flexible Algorithm Paths
+
+ The IP Flexible Algorithm is considered as yet another data plane of
+ the Flexible Algorithm as described in [RFC9350].
+
+ Participation in the IP Flexible Algorithm is signaled as described
+ in Section 5 and is specific to the IP Flexible Algorithm data plane.
+
+ Calculation of IP Flexible Algorithm paths follows what is described
+ in [RFC9350]. This computation uses the IP Flexible Algorithm data
+ plane participation and is independent of the Flexible Algorithm
+ calculation done for any other Flexible Algorithm data plane (e.g.,
+ SR, SRv6).
+
+ The IP Flexible Algorithm data plane only considers participating
+ nodes during the Flexible Algorithm calculation. When computing
+ paths for a given Flex-Algorithm, all nodes that do not advertise
+ participation for such IP Flex-Algorithm, as described in Section 5,
+ MUST be pruned from the topology.
+
+8. IP Flexible Algorithm Forwarding
+
+ The IP Algorithm Prefix Reachability advertisement as described in
+ Section 5 includes the MTID value that associates the prefix with a
+ specific topology. Algorithm Prefix Reachability advertisement also
+ includes an Algorithm value that explicitly associates the prefix
+ with a specific Flex-Algorithm. The paths to the prefix MUST be
+ calculated using the specified Flex-Algorithm in the associated
+ topology.
+
+ Forwarding entries for the IP Flex-Algorithm prefixes advertised in
+ IGPs MUST be installed in the forwarding plane of the receiving IP
+ Flex-Algorithm prefix capable routers when they participate in the
+ associated topology and algorithm. Forwarding entries for IP Flex-
+ Algorithm prefixes associated with Flex-Algorithms in which the node
+ is not participating MUST NOT be installed in the forwarding plane.
+
+9. Deployment Considerations
+
+ IGP Flexible Algorithm can be used by many data planes. The original
+ specification was done for SR and SRv6; this specification adds IP as
+ another data plane that can use IGP Flexible Algorithm. Other data
+ planes may be defined in the future. This section provides some
+ details about the coexistence of the various data planes of an IGP
+ Flexible Algorithm.
+
+ Flexible Algorithm Definition (FAD), as described in [RFC9350], is
+ data plane independent and is used by all Flexible Algorithm data
+ planes.
+
+ Participation in the Flexible Algorithm, as described in [RFC9350],
+ is data plane specific.
+
+ Calculation of the Flexible Algorithm paths is data plane specific
+ and uses data-plane-specific participation advertisements.
+
+ Data-plane-specific participation and calculation guarantee that the
+ forwarding of the traffic over the Flex-Algorithm data-plane-specific
+ paths is consistent between all nodes that apply the IGP Flex-
+ Algorithm to the data plane.
+
+ Multiple data planes can use the same Flex-Algorithm value at the
+ same time and, and as such, share the FAD for it. For example, SR-
+ MPLS and IP can both use a common Flex-Algorithm. Traffic for SR-
+ MPLS will be forwarded based on Flex-Algorithm-specific SR SIDs.
+ Traffic for IP Flex-Algorithm will be forwarded based on Flex-
+ Algorithm-specific prefix reachability advertisements. Note that for
+ a particular Flex-Algorithm, for a particular IP prefix, there will
+ only be path(s) calculated and installed for a single data plane.
+
+10. Protection
+
+ In many networks where IGP Flexible Algorithms are deployed, IGP
+ restoration will be fast and additional protection mechanisms will
+ not be required. IGP restoration may be enhanced by Equal Cost
+ Multipath (ECMP).
+
+ In other networks, operators can deploy additional protection
+ mechanisms. The following are examples:
+
+ * Loop-Free Alternates (LFAs) [RFC5286]
+
+ * Remote Loop-Free Alternates (R-LFAs) [RFC7490]
+
+ LFA and R-LFA computations MUST be restricted to the Flex-Algorithm
+ topology and the computed backup next hops should be programmed for
+ the IP Flex-Algorithm prefixes.
+
+11. IANA Considerations
+
+ This specification updates the "OSPF Router Information (RI) TLVs"
+ registry as follows:
+

+
+ Since the above TLVs share the sub-TLV space managed in the "IS-IS

+ Algorithm Prefix Reachability TLV (127)" to the list of TLVs in the
+ description of that registry.
+
+ In addition, columns headed "126" and "127" have been added to that

+12. Security Considerations
+
+ This document inherits security considerations from [RFC9350].
+
+ This document adds one new way to disrupt IGP networks that are using
+ Flexible Algorithm: an attacker can suppress reachability for a given
+ prefix whose reachability is advertised by a legitimate node for a
+ particular IP Flex-Algorithm X by advertising the same prefix in
+ Flex-Algorithm Y from another malicious node. (To see why this is,
+ consider, for example, the rule given in the second-to-last paragraph
+ of Section 6.1).
+
+ This attack can be addressed by the existing security extensions, as
+ described in [RFC5304] and [RFC5310] for IS-IS, in [RFC2328] and
+ [RFC7474] for OSPFv2, and in [RFC4552] and [RFC5340] for OSPFv3.
+
+ If a node that is authenticated is taken over by an attacker, such a
+ rogue node can perform the attack described above. Such an attack is
+ not preventable through authentication, and it is not different from
+ advertising any other incorrect information through IS-IS or OSPF.
