Standards Track [Page 2] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + +1. Introduction + + The default control plane for Pseudowire (PW) technology, as defined + in [RFC4447], is based on the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP). + However, that document also describes a static provisioning mode + without a control plane. When a static PW is used, there is no + method to transmit the status of the PW or attachment circuit (AC) + between the two Provider Edge (PE) devices at each end of the PW. + This document defines a method to transport the PW status codes + defined in Section 5.4.2 of [RFC4447] and elsewhere [REDUNDANCY] in- + band with the PW data using a generic associated channel [RFC5586]. + +2. Specification of Requirements + + 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 [RFC2119]. + +3.

Applicability + + As described in [RFC4447] and [RFC6310], a PE that establishes an + MPLS PW using means other than LDP, e.g., by static configuration, + MUST support some alternative method of status reporting. The + + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 3] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + procedures described in this document are for use when PWs are + statically configured and an LDP control plane is not available. + + As defined in [RFC4447], a PE that establishes a PW using LDP MUST + use the PW status TLV mechanism for AC and PW status and defect + notification on that PW. In order to avoid duplicate notifications + and potentially conflicting notifications, such PEs MUST NOT use the + mechanisms described in this document for those PWs, except that the + S-PE bypass mode described in Section 5.5 MAY be used when both T-PEs + at each end of the PW use LDP to establish the PW. + + In order to protect against duplicate notifications and potentially + conflicting notifications, when the Pseudowire Status protocol for + Static Pseudowires described in this document is used, the BFD VCCV + (Virtual Circuit Connectivity Verification) status-signaling + mechanisms described in [RFC5885] (CV Types 0x08 and 0x20) MUST NOT + be used. BFD VCCV for fault detection (CV types 0x04 and 0x10) MAY + still be used. + +5. Pseudowire Status Operation + +5.1.

The + version and the reserved values are both set to 0 as specified in + [RFC4385]. + + + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 4] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + The refresh timer is an unsigned integer and specifies refresh time + in seconds with a range from 1 to 65535. The value 0 means that the + refresh timer is set to infinity, and the PW OAM message will never + be refreshed, and will never timeout. + + The TLV length field indicates the length of all TLVs only. This + document defines only the transport of the PW status TLV, as defined + in Section 5.4.2, [RFC4447], in the TLV field. In the future, + additional TLVs may be defined to be used in this field with code + points allocated from the IANA registry called "LDP TLV Type Name + Space". + + The A flag bit is used to indicate an acknowledgment of the PW status + TLV included. The rest of the flag bits are reserved and they MUST + be set to 0 on transmit, and ignored upon receipt. When the A bit is + set, the refresh timer value is a requested timer value. + + The PW OAM Message code point value is 0x0027. + +5.2. Sending a PW Status Message + + The PW Status messages are sent in-band using the PW OAM message + containing the PW Status TLV for a particular PW, as defined in + [RFC4447]. The PW Status TLV format is almost as defined in + [RFC4447] and is repeated here for the reader's convenience: + + 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 + +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + |Res| PW Status (0x096A) | Length | + +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + | Status Code | + +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + + Figure 2: PW Status TLV Format + + Unlike the case in [RFC4447], here, the first 2 bits are reserved, + and MUST be set to zero on transmit and ignored on receipt. + + The PW Status TLV is prepended with a PW OAM message header and sent + on the ACh of the PW to which the status update applies. + + To clear a particular status indication, the PE needs to send a new + PW OAM message containing a PW Status TLV with the corresponding bit + cleared as defined in [RFC4447]. + + The procedures described in [RFC6073] that apply to an S-PE and PW + using an LDP control plane also apply when sending PW status using + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 5] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + the PW OAM channel. The OPTIONAL procedures using the SP-PE TLV + described in [RFC6073] can also be applied when sending PW status + using the PW OAM channel. + + The detailed message transmit and message receive procedures are + specified in the next section. PW OAM status messages MUST NOT be + used as a connectivity verification method. + +5.3. PW OAM Status Message Transmit and Receive + + Unlike the PW status procedures defined in [RFC4447], with this + method there is no TCP/IP session or session management. Therefore, + unlike the TCP/IP case, where each message is sent only once, the PW + OAM message containing the PW status TLV needs to be transmitted + repeatedly to ensure reliable message delivery. If a malformed TLV + or an unknown TLV is received in a PW OAM status message, the TLV + MUST be ignored, and the PE SHOULD report the event to the operator. + + A PW OAM message containing a PW status TLV with a new status bit set + or reset will be transmitted immediately by the PE. Unless the + message is acknowledged within a second, the PW OAM message will then + be repeated twice more at an initial interval of one second. + Subsequently, the PW OAM message will be transmitted with an interval + specified by the refresh timer value in the packet. Note that this + value MAY be updated in the new PW OAM message packet, in which case + the new refresh timer value becomes the new packet transmit interval. + + The suggested default value for the refresh timer is 600 seconds. + This default is adequate for typical deployments, and PEs are + designed to take into account processing these messages at the + required rate. + + When a PW OAM message containing a status TLV is received, a timer is + started according to the refresh rate specified in the packet. If + another non-zero PW status message is not received within 3.5 times + the specified timer value, the status condition will timeout in 3.5 + times the last refresh timer value received, and the default status + of zero is assumed on the PW. It is also a good practice to + introduce some jitter in the delay between refresh transmissions, as + long as the maximum jitter delay is within the prescribed maximum + refresh time of 3.5 times the specified timer value for 3 consecutive + refresh packets. + + To clear a particular status fault, the PE need only send an updated + message with the corresponding bit cleared. If the PW status code is + zero, the PW OAM message will be sent like any other PW OAM status + message using the procedures described above; however, transmission + will cease after 3 PW status messages have been sent at one second + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 6] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + intervals and before the refresh timer expires. A PW status message + of zero MAY be acknowledged using the procedures described in Section + 5.3.1. If it is acknowledged, then a timer value of zero MUST be + used. This SHOULD cause the PE sending the PW status notification + message with a PW status code equal to zero to stop sending and to + continue normal operation. + +5.3.1. Acknowledgment of PW Status + + A PE receiving a PW OAM message containing a PW status message MAY + acknowledge the PW status message by simply building a reply packet + with the same format and status code as the received PW OAM message, + but with the A bit set, and transmitting it on the PW ACh back to the + source of the PW OAM message. The receiving PE MAY use the refresh + timer field in the acknowledgement packet to request a new refresh + interval from the originator of the PW OAM message. The timer value + set in the reply packet SHOULD then be used by the originator of the + PW OAM message as the new transmit interval. If the requested + refresh timer value is to be used, then, when the the current timer + expires, the PW OAM message transmission interval is set to the new + value and the new value is sent in the PW OAM message. If the + transmitting PE does not want to use the new timer value (for local + policy reasons, or because it simply cannot support it), it MUST + refresh the PW OAM message with the timer value it desires. The + receiving PE will then set its timeout timer according to the new + refresh timer value that is in the packet received, regardless of + what timer value it requested. The receiving PE MUST NOT request a + new refresh timer value more than once per refresh interval. + + The suggested default value for the refresh timer value in the + acknowledgment packet is 600 seconds. + + If the sender PE receives an acknowledgment message that does not + match the current active PW status message being sent, it simply + ignores the acknowledgment packet. + + If a PE that has received a non-zero status code for a PW detects by + any means that the far end PE has become unreachable, it will follow + the standard defect entry procedures of [RFC6310], Section 6.2. + +5.4. MPLS Label Stack + + With one exception, all PW OAM status messages are sent to the + adjacent PE across the PSN tunnel. In many cases, the transmitting + PE has no way to determine whether the adjacent PE is an S-PE or a + T-PE. This is a necessary behavior to preserve backward + compatibility with PEs that do not understand MS-PWs. In the + procedures described in this document, there are two possible + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 7] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + destinations for the PW OAM status messages: the adjacent PE or the + T-PE. Sending a PW status message directly to the T-PE is an + enhanced method that is only applicable using PW OAM status messages + sent in the PW ACH. + +5.4.1. Label Stack for a Message Destined to the Next PE + + A PE that needs to forward a PW OAM status message to the adjacent PE + across the PSN tunnel MUST set the PW label TTL field to 1. + Furthermore, if the control word is not in use on the particular PW, + the PE MUST place the GAL reserved label [RFC5586] below the PW label + with the TTL field set to 1. + +5.4.2. Label Stack for a Message Destined to the Egress PE + + This is also known as "S-PE bypass mode"; see below. A T-PE that + requires sending a PW OAM status message directly to the + corresponding T-PE at the other end of the PW MUST set the TTL of the + PW label to a value that is sufficient to reach the corresponding + T-PE. This value will be greater than one, but will be set according + to the local policy on the transmitting T-PE. Furthermore, if the + control word is not in use on the particular PW, the PE MUST also + place the GAL reserved label [RFC5586] below the PW label with the + TTL field set to 1. + +5.5. S-PE Bypass Mode + + S-PE bypass mode enables a T-PE that uses LDP as the PW setup and + control protocol to bypass all S-PEs that might be present along the + MS-PW and to send a message directly to the remote T-PE. This is + used for very fast message transmission in-band with the PW PDUs. + This mode is OPTIONAL and MUST be supported by both T-PEs to be + enabled. This mode MUST NOT be used if the first PW segment + connected to each T-PE is not using LDP. + + Note that this method MUST NOT be used to send messages that are + permitted to originate at an S-PE. Otherwise, race conditions could + occur between messages sent via the control plane by S-PEs and + messages sent via the data plane by T-PEs. + + Status codes, except for those listed below, MUST NOT be sent using + the S-PE bypass procedure and MUST be ignored on reception. + + 0x00000002 - Local Attachment Circuit (ingress) Receive Fault + + 0x00000004 - Local Attachment Circuit (egress) Transmit Fault + + 0x00000020 - PW forwarding standby + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 8] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + 0x00000040 - Request switchover to this PW + + Note that since "clear all failures" may be sent by an S-PE, it MUST + NOT be sent using the S-PE bypass mode. + + When S-PE bypass mode is enabled, all PW Status TLVs received using + this method have priority over PW Status TLVs sent via control + protocols such as LDP [RFC4447]. However, the same PW Status TLVs + MUST also be sent in LDP to keep the S-PEs state updated. + +5.5.1. S-PE Bypass Mode LDP Flag Bit + + When a PW Segment along an MS-PW is using the LDP control protocol + and wishes to request the use of the S-PE bypass status message mode, + it sets the B bit in the generic protocol flags interface parameters + sub-TLV as shown in Figure 3. This flag can only be set by a T-PE + using LDP as the PW configuration and management protocol. If the + S-PE bypass mode LDP flag bit in the generic protocol flags interface + parameter does not match in the FEC advertisement for directions of a + specific PW, that PW MUST NOT be enabled. + + The interface parameter is defined as follows: + + 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=0x18 | Length=4 |R R R R R R R R R R R R R R R B| + +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + + Figure 3: PW Generic Protocol Flags Sub-TLV + + TLV Type + + Type 0x18 - PW Generic Protocol Flags. + + Length + + TLV length is always 4 octets. + + Flags + + Bit B, in position 31 above, is set to request the S-PE bypass + mode. R bits are to be allocated by IANA as described in the IANA + section. If they are not allocated, they are to be considered as + reserved for future use and MUST be zero on transmission and + ignored on reception of this TLV. + + + + + +Martini, et al. Standards Track [Page 9] + +RFC 6478 Pseudowire Status for Static Pseudowires May 2012 + + + If the T-PE receives an LDP label mapping message containing a + generic protocol flags interface parameter TLV with the bit B set, + then the T-PE receiving the label mapping message MAY send S-PE + bypass status messages in the PW ACh. If bit B of said TLV is not + set, or the TLV is not present, then the T-PE receiving the label + mapping message MUST NOT send S-PE bypass status messages in the + PW ACh. + +6. S-PE Operation + + The S-PE will operate according to the procedures defined in + [RFC6073]. The following additional procedures apply to the case + where a static PW segment is switched to a dynamic PW segment that + uses LDP, and the case where a static PW segment is switched to + another static PW segment. + +6.1. Static PW to Another Static PW + + The procedures that are described in [RFC6073] Section 10 also apply + to the case of a static PW switched to another static PW. The LDP + header is simply replaced by the PW OAM header; otherwise, the packet + format will be identical. The information that is necessary to form + an SP-PE TLV MUST be configured in the S-PE, or no SP-PE TLV will be + sent. [RFC6073] defines the IANA "Pseudowire Switching Point PE TLV + Type" registry. In order to support the static PW configuration and + addressing scheme, the following new code point has been assigned: + + Type Length Description + ---- ------ ----------- + 0x07 24 Static PW/MPLS-TP PW segment ID of last + PW segment traversed + + The format of this TLV is that of the "Static Pseudowire Sub-TLV" + defined in [RFC6426]. + +6.2. Dynamic PW to Static PW or Vice Versa + + The procedures that are described in Section 10 of [RFC6073] also + apply to this situation. However, if the PW label of the LDP- + controlled PW segment is withdrawn by the adjacent PE, the S-PE will + set the PW status code "0x00000001 - Pseudowire Not Forwarding" to + the adjacent PW on the static PW segment. + + The S-PE will only withdraw its label for the dynamic, LDP-controlled + PW segment if the S-PE is not provisioned. + + + + + + +Martini, et al.
