Agreed.

See the example I gave (Andrew's originally?), the combination of 
AS_HOPCOUNT with peer:action could give the route /wider/ scope than 
either of the two methods on their own, which seems unintuitive.

A fair point.

How likely is it that people are going to experiment with 
announcements that are currently global scope? Surely such 
experiments will be carried out on announcements currently with 
restricted scope (by no-export or by <peer>:<action> communities)?

Yeah...

Though, as it stands it seems to interact poorly with one of the few 
existing restrict-scope traffic-engineering method during transition. 
Is that interaction more important than difference between "X 
hopcount means reaches at least X hops" and "X hopcount means reaches 
/up to/ X hops"? (particularly given the former can never be 
guaranteed anyway). I don't know.

Anyway..

Well, I'm always horrible at estimating probabilities of group behavior.

My hope is that restricting the scope of global prefixes becomes the  
predominant
use of the attribute.  Specifically, longer prefixes that are being  
injected for traffic
engineering.  I'm guessing that the predominant use would be proxy  
application
by Tier 1 or 2 providers.

My $.02,
Tony

Sure. But if they're restricting scope of a route, they want its 
scope restricted. The covering global scope prefix will be there 
anyway. But who knows, indeed :).

A more focused answer might be to make just the 'ignore no-export' 
part of the draft conditional on the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute being 
complete. Would that be acceptable? That'd solve the no-export 
concerns while still erring on the liberal-scope side.

Ok, I don't understand what you're suggesting.  Here's what I think  
you're saying.

If a prefix has both NO_EXPORT and AS_HOPCOUNT and it's received by  
an AS,
then there are three cases:

1) The AS doesn't support AS_HOPCOUNT and it obeys NO_EXPORT,  
limiting the prefix
to the local domain.

2) The AS does support AS_HOPCOUNT.

a) If the hopcount hasn't completed, then the AS would obey NO_EXPORT.

b) If the hopcount has completed, then the AS would drop the route.

I don't see how the path can ever exit the AS.  I'm guessing that I'm  
being dense, but
I'm not seeing how...

Tony

Odd, the draft doesn't seem to say this.

In 3.3:

"   Systems that receive NLRI with both an AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT and
    which do implement AS_HOPCOUNT will ignore the NO_EXPORT community
    and propagate the NLRI."

In 5.1:

"   If a BGP speaker receives a route with both the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
    and the NO_EXPORT community string attribute, then the normal
    semantics of NO_EXPORT do not apply and the route should be processed
    as if NO_EXPORT was not present."

Maybe I'm being dense too ;) but that reads to me like AS_HOPCOUNT 
/always/ overrides NO_EXPORT, which is not good imho (see my X-Y-Z 
action-community + AS_HOPCOUNT example in previous email). I'm saying 
AS_HOPCOUNT should override NO_EXPORT *only* if it is complete.

If it's partial, then NO_EXPORT, IFF present, should be honoured 
instead, because there's no way to know how many hops were "missed" 
in the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute, NO_EXPORT is the only complete 
"scope-reducer" in such case and should hence be obeyed.

Failure could to do so could result in the prefix reaching /further/ 
than intended by anyone, possibly even result in global scope, where 
this was never intended for that prefix.

That was my interpretation of what YOU were suggesting when you said  
that "AS_HOPCOUNT
should override NO_EXPORT *only* if it is complete".  Is that incorrect?

Perhaps we might make more progress if you could expand on your  
proposed semantics a bit.


> If it's partial, then NO_EXPORT, IFF present, should be honoured  
> instead,


If AS_HOPCOUNT is partial, the it implies that it transited an AS  
that did not support AS_HOPCOUNT.
But any such AS should have obeyed NO_EXPORT and thus should never  
have propagated the
path in the first place.

   When I first raised this issue, I was thinking of a particular case
(in addition to the general case):

- BGP-speaker at the edge advertises with AS_HOPCOUNT (without NO_EXPORT);
- ISP-A doesn't know AS_HOPCOUNT, adds NO_EXPORT for whatever reason;
- ISP-B recognizes AS_HOPCOUNT, and ignores NO_EXPORT.

   This particular case feels wrong to me.

See the examples I gave previously wrt interaction of AS_HOPCOUNT and 
<peer>:<action> communities:

 	X-Y-Z

Z sends prefix with both AS_HOPCOUNT (count >= 2), and also community 
Y:n (where AS Y will attach no-export community for any prefix which 
has Y:n community attached). Y does not support AS_HOPCOUNT. X 
receives the advertisement and ignores no-export, as the draft 
currently stands.

The prefix might now have have global scope, particularly in early 
days of AS_HOPCOUNT deployment (where it may never transit through 
sufficient other AS_HOPCOUNT capable speakers to be stopped). The 
prefix has /wider/ scope because of the combination of AS_HOPCOUNT 
and <peer>:<action> communities, wider than it could ever have with 
either method (presuming everyone supported AS_HOPCOUNT). It'd be a 
surprising effect of AS_HOPCOUNT possibly.

See also the example I gave where Y has some AS_HOPCOUNT capable 
speakers, and some not.

Making the NO_EXPORT override be conditional on AS_HOPCOUNT being a 
complete attribute would solve this case, while not restricting scope 
of AS_HOPCOUNTed prefixes unneccesarily, I think. (that was your 
objection to my earlier 'partial -> set to 0' proposal).

Understood, and this is certainly a bad side effect of AS_HOPCOUNT  
and Y:n interaction.

Yes, but as I pointed out, making the NO_EXPORT override be  
conditional on AS_HOPCOUNT being
complete breaks the NO_EXPORT override for everyone who is NOT  
depending on Y:n semantics.
This begs the question: how many folks are reliant on Y:n semantics?   
Or should we simply remove
the interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT?

Tony

Tony,
I've got a couple of concerns with the current specification, a few
high-level points are provided here as the detailed text below is
admittedly overly verbose (in part because I was trying to wrap my
head around the various scenarios - which I'm still not sure I have).
I have read the entire thread to date and don't believe I'm duplicating
much...

In short, I'd definitely prefer that AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT
interaction be removed entirely.  I believe the corner cases where it'd
be useful are fewer than the cases where it could adversely effect
existing deployments.

I'd also think that adapting AS_HOPCOUNT behavior to be much more
akin to that of the NO_EXPORT community string may be desirable.  I.e.,
make AS_HOPCOUNT an egress policy function rather than an ingress
one - as expanded on in the text below.

Finally, I'd strongly suggest that Member-ASes of an AS confederation
NOT be treated like standard external peers, but rather, that the
AS_HOPCOUNT functions only apply to Member-ASes that are
advertising a route to eBGP peers outside of the local confederation.
My reasoning for this is that IBGP AS properties that are only visible
within an AS would now result in routes only being propagated
throughout a subset of a given AS, or an AS_HOPCOUNT being
decremented multiple times in a seemingly single A (AUTONOMOUS)
System....

Imagine a case where a multi-homed AS wanted to employ
AS_HOPCOUNT to scope traffic two ASes upstream from it's two
providers.  One of it's upstream providers employs route reflection
or a full mesh iBGP, while the other has confederations.  As
you can imagine, the confederation could result in the route
never being advertised outside of the AS, or entirely within the AS if
employing confederations, while still being propagated via the other
provider.  In short, it results in behavior that would be seemingly
non-deterministic without intimate knowledge of the the internal
BGP routing architectures of the networks in questions.

I suspect in this case implementers could provide a knob to
decrement AS_HOPCOUNT when advertising to other Member-ASes
of the same AS confederation, but it's not something I'd recommend
as normal default behavior.

I'm still a fan of AS_HOPCOUNT and believe it's a good idea, FWIW.

Further comments below...

-danny


As currently specified, (if I'm interpreting correctly) an eBGP speaker
upon receipt of NLRI that contains both the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
and NO_EXPORT community:

- if it doesn't understand the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute processing will
continue as usual per it's an optional transitive attribute and  
NO_EXPORT
will likely result in the NLRI NOT being propagated outside the local  
AS.
(note that this required that the eBGP peer transmit both the NO_EXPORT
community AND the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute)

- if it does understand AS_HOPCOUNT it will ignore the NO_EXPORT
(actually, behave as if it doesn't exist?) community and propagate the
route ---> IF the AS_HOPCOUNT value is non-zero.

- NO_EXPORT remains only applicable between adjacent ASes (by it's
very nature)?  I don't see anywhere here that it states NO_EXPORT should
be carried indefinitely if the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute is present?

With that, I'm honestly not sure I understand here where value is gained
by coupling the NO_EXPORT community with the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute, can you further expand for me?

On that point

In section 3.3 the draft states:

" Further control can be achieved by considering the implications of
using both AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT simultaneously.  Since
NO_EXPORT is widely deployed, understood by almost all implementations,
and since AS_HOPCOUNT is not deployed, we can make use of the overlap
in their semantics to provide a powerful transition mechanism."

This introduces a bit of confusion.  With the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
a route would be dropped as an ingress policy function (i.e., when
receiving a route from an eBGP peer with an AS_HOPCOUNT value
of 0).  Whereas, NO_EXPORT is applied as an egress policy function
(i.e., don't announce a route to an eBGP peer if the NO_EXPORT
community string is present), the latter of which has the advantage
of allowing me to tell an adjacent AS something and being quite
confident that it will not be propagated beyond their AS.  I.e., it
seems non-intuitive to tell someone something if I know they're
going to ignore it.  However, if I know they're going to use it but
not tell anyone else (e.g., as with NO_EXPORT), that makes sense.

So what this would mean is that if I wanted to employ this in a
similar manner to NO_EXPORT with an adjacent peer that
supported the new attribute, I'd set the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute to
1, it'd be decremented on ingress to the adjacent AS AND advertised
to ASes further upstream - *where it previously was not*, and on
ingress to those ASes IF they support the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
they'll discard the route (a route that would have never been advertised
had the AS_HOPCOUNT behavior not been introduced per the
NO_EXPORT community that existed on ingress to the second AS in
the path).  If they do not support the attribute the route will be
propagated indefinitely.

Perhaps we'd be better off here if we changed the rules a bit
such that NLRI with an AS_HOPCOUNT value of 1 (or 0) MUST
NOT be advertised to eBGP peers, then the semantics overlap much
more cleanly with that of the NO_EXPORT community string.  I'm
trying to think of a case where this might break if BGP speakers
don't support it but nothing comes to mind at the moment....?

Along the same lines, the issue that most of this thread has been
pertaining to regarding ignoring NO_EXPORT if the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute is present, that concerns me.  Primarily because if a
downstream AS attaches the NO_EXPORT community to a route
but has no knowledge of the existing AS_HOPCOUNT attribute,
then the NO_EXPORT community will be ignored.

According to the text here in section 5.1:

"If a BGP speaker receives a route with both the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute and the NO_EXPORT community string attribute, then the
normal semantics of NO_EXPORT do not apply and the route should
be processed as if NO_EXPORT was not present."

This has several implications.  The first is that my reading of this
leads me to believe that the NO_EXPORT community string should be
removed from the route.  So, if a transit AS added the NO_EXPORT
community fully intending for the adjacent to propagate the route
entirely throughout the local AS, but didn't recognize the AS_HOPCOUNT
value then policy just changed without their knowledge and the route
MAY be dropped on ingress to the AS, rather than egress (or in some
external AS), depending on the value of the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute.

I'd really prefer that the interactions between AS_HOPCOUNT and
NO_EXPORT be removed altogether as I suspect that this will likely
result in inadvertent propagation of prefixes that were previously
scoped by NO_EXPORT (e.g., as was mentioned in the case where
a transit AS doesn't support AS_HOPCOUNT but attached
NO_EXPORT for whatever reason).   Or, for example, all the routes that
MAY be leaked while I'm upgrading my egress routers to support
AS_HOPCOUNT while the ingress routers have stripped the
NO_EXPORT community.

Hi, Tony:

It seems to me that removing the interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and 
NO_EXPORT would make things simpler and cleaner. So I am in favor of the 
revision.

Also as Danny pointed out,  having the AS_HOPCOUNT as an outbound policy 
(rather than an inbound policy) would make it consistent with the 
commonly understood practice of NO_EXPORT. It seems to be a good idea.

I don't quite see that. Could you expand on this (apologies if you 
did already)?

It will work for fine for the combination of NO_EXPORT and 
AS_HOPCOUNT evisaged in the draft. Where the originator sets both. 
AS_HOPCOUNT will always be complete.

I think the draft is right to try modify no-export behaviour 
depending on AS_HOPCOUNT. Lets try find the best way to do so, no?

   I believe that any interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT
should be limited to _setting_ NO_EXPORT. Clearing it seems to
introduce too much risk of propagating farther than intended.

   That said, I can imagine a use for setting NO_EXPORT in the case
where AS_HOPCOUNT will reach its limit after one more hop: when the
next hop is suspected of not implementing AS_HOPCOUNT.

   Of course, this only helps during the "transition" to full
implementation of AS_HOPCOUNT -- but that transition, IMHO, will
take a minimum of five years, and any predictability we can add
during the transition is (IMHO) a good thing.

No objection from me.

I should point out that regardless of the way the draft describes the  
semantics, the implementation
is free to implement this as an inbound or outbound policy, as it  
sees fit.  For example, given the
current text, an implementation could pre-compute the ingress policy  
that a neighbor would implement
and filter the prefix on the outbound side, effectively making this  
an outbound policy.

Tony

We must have some miscommunication on the word "complete".  When an  
originator sets
AS_HOPCOUNT, I would assume that they would set it to some non-zero  
small integer.  It would
only be complete when it had subsequently traversed multiple ASs and  
the value had been
decremented to zero.

I think so. It was the "completed" word in your other email that 
threw me into thinking you were referring to some language in the 
draft.

Ah, in every case where I've used "complete" or "partial", I've been 
referring to the Partial bit in the attribute flags header.

The NO_EXPORT/AS_HOPCOUNT interaction described in the current draft  
were based on an old (unsubmitted) draft I wrote which was conceived  
very much from the perspective of trying to conservatively restrict  
propagation of routes covering the addresses of anycast services.  
(Apologies for not speaking up sooner; my traditional New Year's  
hangover was concatenated with influenza.)

The motivations for abusing NO_EXPORT in this way were that the  
implications for a leak from an anycast node in a region with poor  
external connectivity are often serious, and in many cases not  
propagating the prefix as widely as we could is preferable to  
accidentally propagating it globally. For example, propagating the  
covering route for F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET from ISC's anycast node in  
Nairobi could be bad for many people, both inside and outside Kenya.

Export policies are frequently designed and implemented to prevent  
peer routes leaking to transit providers for obvious reasons;  
however, in practice, we find ourselves deploying infrastructure in  
regions where the concept of "export policy" is not well-known, and  
BGP configurations are apparently copied verbatim from the backs of  
cereal boxes. Not all of these regions are those that would be  
normally considered to be in the developing world. Hence, we like the  
paranoid approach of setting NO_EXPORT on 192.5.5.0/24 from our local  
nodes, since the peers most likely to leak are also the peers least  
likely to know how to remove it, or to even notice it is there. We  
soak up queries from the client population that we miss with this  
conservative propagation strategy on a smaller number of bigger, well- 
connected anycast nodes.

There has been various discussion over the past week or so about how  
the unusual interaction between NO_EXPORT and AS_HOPCOUNT specified  
in this draft could cause confusion, e.g. by those practicing proxy  
application of NO_EXPORT, which for routes which also happen to carry  
AS_HOPCOUNT might not prevent the route from being exported. Breaking  
deployed expectations of NO_EXPORT does indeed seem bad. Since the  
whole NO_EXPORT/AS_HOPCOUNT interaction is a bit of a cheap short- 
cut, designed to allow use of AS_HOPCOUNT without waiting for  
widespread adoption of the AS_HOPCOUNT mechanism, perhaps the  
collateral ugliness is not justified.

As someone else here suggested (and as Tony pointed out to me)  
changing the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute to represent an upper bound on the  
length of an AS_PATH (and discarding the NO_EXPORT interaction) might  
be a useful compromise, since a prefix leaked by a non-AS_HOPCOUNT- 
aware speaker would continue to accrue AS_PATH length through non- 
AS_HOPCOUNT-aware routers, and would be suppressed by the first  
AS_HOPCOUNT-aware speaker it came across.

The only other mechanism that occurred to me was to replace the  
current proposed NO_EXPORT interaction with a capabilities  
negotiation in the specification such that an AS_HOPCOUNT-capable  
speaker would append a NO_EXPORT community-string attribute to routes  
carrying AS_HOPCOUNT in the case where it exports routes towards a  
non-AS_HOPCOUNT-capable speaker. This would provide a more  
conservative strategy for route propagation, but it seems dirtier  
than using AS_HOPCOUNT to bound an AS_PATH length. It also doesn't  
support the alternative, more leak-tolerant semantics achieved in the  
current proposal by adding AS_HOPCOUNT without NO_EXPORT.

I like this idea much better as well, assuming it accounts for private
AS, AS confederation path segments, AS sets, etc..

Not only would this require some more dynamic knowledge (e.g., BGP
Capabilities functions) of what capabilities the neighbor supports, it's
something that may vary even within a single AS.

I agree - I like the idea of examining the AS path and using that  
mechanism
instead...

Danny,

I would word it so that the hopcount explicitly does NOT count  
private ASs or confederation ASs.
AS sets would still count as one hop per set member.

Does that match what you're saying?

Tony

Hello folks,

I had a question about the FSM in BGP-4.
I am not sure, but was there was a problem
in BGP 4 (RFC 177) with the FSM collision detection rules?

According to what I vaguely remember, there was particular
sequence of message passing between peers which
would result in both of them getting stuck in the
active state.

This was supposed to be addressed in the later idr drafts.

Could you please comment on this and let me know if
I am right or wrong?

Thanks.
Vikram.

Hi All,
           I have a question on aggregation and dampening.

Consider the topology,

R1-----R3-------R4
          |
          |
R2------|


1. R1 and R2 are advertising 66.0.0.0/32 and 66.0.0.1/32 to R3 respectively=
.
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and advertising
to R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path attributes are
considered and if one of the routes flap , say the route from R2, the
aggregate flap to R4 will flap.
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3.

        Is it right to expect that now when the route from R2 flaps, it
should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate ? To put it more
elaboratively , say  the route from R2 flaps and reaches supress value and
is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the aggregate or stop
contributing to the aggregate ?
        Is this implementation specific ?

Thanks
Maneesh

p.s : Sorry , if it is a very basic question in this forum.

Hi Maneesh,

 

I feel Dampening should be considered irrespective of what you are doing
in aggregation.

When dampening is configured, route can take two values Dampened or
History.

Dampened route is valid to advertise.  History route is not valid to
advertise.

 

So whether the route can be considered for aggregation or not, depends
on this state - dampened or history.

 

With specific answer to your question, If the route is in Dampened state
it should contribute for Aggregation.

If it is in History state it should not contribute for Aggregation.

 

Any different opinion in the group?

 

Regards,

Anjan

Hi Maneesh,

 

I feel Dampening should be considered irrespective of what you are doing
in aggregation.

When dampening is configured, route can take two values Dampened or
History.

Dampened route is valid to advertise.  History route is not valid to
advertise.

 

So whether the route can be considered for aggregation or not, depends
on this state - dampened or history.

 

With specific answer to your question, If the route is in Dampened state
it should contribute for Aggregation.

If it is in History state it should not contribute for Aggregation.

 

Any different opinion in the group?

 

Regards,

Anjan

Subject: [Idr] Aggregation and dampening

 

Hi All,
           I have a question on aggregation and dampening.

Consider the topology,

R1-----R3-------R4
          |
          |
R2------|


1. R1 and R2 are advertising 66.0.0.0/32 and 66.0.0.1/32 to R3
respectively.
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and
advertising to R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path
attributes are considered and if one of the routes flap , say the route
from R2, the aggregate flap to R4 will flap. 
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3. 
   
        Is it right to expect that now when the route from R2 flaps, it
should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate ? To put it more
elaboratively , say  the route from R2 flaps and reaches supress value
and is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the aggregate
or stop contributing to the aggregate ? 
        Is this implementation specific ?

Thanks
Maneesh

style='font-size:12.0pt'>Hi All,<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have a question
on aggregation and dampening.<br>
<br>
Consider the topology,<br>
<br>
R1-----R3-------R4<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; |<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; |<br>
R2------|<br>
<br>
<br>
1. R1 and R2 are advertising <a href="http://66.0.0.0/32">66.0.0.0/32</a> and <a
href="http://66.0.0.1/32">66.0.0.1/32</a> to R3 respectively.<br>
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and advertising to
R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path attributes are considered
and if one of the routes flap , say the route from R2, the aggregate flap to R4
will flap. <br>
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3. <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is it right to expect that now when
the route from R2 flaps, it should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate
? To put it more elaboratively , say&nbsp; the route from R2 flaps and reaches
supress value and is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the
aggregate or stop contributing to the aggregate ? <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is this implementation specific ?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Maneesh<br>
<br>
p.s : Sorry , if it is a very basic question in this forum.<br>

Hi folks,

Based on the discussion that we've had so far, the authors of the  
AS_HOPCOUNT draft would
like to make some substantive changes to the draft.  The chairs have  
asked that we poll you to
ensure that we have rough consensus on the new direction.  The  
primary technical points of
these changes:

- Convert AS_HOPCOUNT from being decremented at each AS boundary and  
instead have it
   be a static upper bound on the AS path length.

- Rename the attribute to AS_PATHLIMIT.

- Completely remove the interaction with NO_EXPORT.

There are, of course, a number of details more fully explained in the  
revised draft, but before we
are allowed to present you with the revision, we need to have your  
approval on the above.

Could folks please comment to the list within the next two weeks as  
to whether or not this direction
is acceptable?  As this is to help gauge consensus, both positive and  
negative comments are
solicited.

Regards,
Joe & Rex & Tony

Hello folks,

I have a question about Cisco's implementation of BGP.

Is automatic start enabled by default in Cisco BGP?
i.e if a BGP session goes to idle, does Cisco
generate BGP start events automatically or is it only
with manual intervention.

If the default is not to automatically generate start events,
what is the command to enable it on Cisco.

Thanks,
Vikram.

For sake of progress: I'm in favor of all these changes to the draft...

--------------
For sake of other: I'm surprised you're being asked to poll the WG
before instituting them.  Out of curiosity, how many hands are required
to move forward?  And is there some pre-determined percentage of
in-favor/not-in-favor that dictates reasonable consensus in the face of
contention?

It's just that I'd really rather not see the noise - if folks take  
issue with
these changes shouldn't they comment when said issues are being
discussed?

Tony,

Apologies for not chiming in earlier.  Vacations and all that. :-)
My comments for the proposed feature are interspersed and cover
a number of previous e-mails.

I prefer the decrement behavior.

I would agree.

John Leslie brought up an interesting case that it woule be safe to
simply set NO_EXPORT when hopcount was 1 and we are propagating the
route.  It helps to guarantee that the next AS will not propagate
it, even if it doesn't understand the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute.

Another comment (Danny I think) spoke about where we check the
value.  If the value was checked upon egress, then we can avoid
sending the route to a downstream BGP speaker that may not understand
the attribute.

(Checking the value upon ingress in addition to egress is probably
a safe thing to do.)

Another previous comment suggests that we may not simply want to rely
on the behavior of BGP speakers that understand the feature to
decrement the value, but that we may wish to decrement it when
we think that it may not have been decremented for us.  If confederations
weren't a condition upon which the value was decremented, then it
would be possible to use the number of distinct ASes after the
advisory value to determine if the count was what we expected.

In the following example, presume that the BGP speaker doesn't
propagate the route if the decremented value would be zero.  (Change
from the spec in-line with my comments above.)

E.g.:

 A --- B --- C --- D --- E

If A sets the value to 2, we would expect B and C to receive
the route and AS-A would be in the attribute.  If C doesn't
understand the attribute, but D does, D can examine the AS_PATH C B A
and determine that the expected hop count has already been
exceeded.

Padding would need to be accounted for, so padding would need to 
be ignored when determining the number of ASes that have been
transited.

Other comments:

The 4 byte AS number in the attribute is probably a good idea.
However, we should carefully explain the behavior when the 4 byte
AS must be utilized by a 2byte speaker.

Like Danny, I would prefer that confederation boundaries be ignored
for purposes of the count.  However, this is also something I expect
that vendors may prefer to implement a knob to affect the behavior.

I think it would be good to specify behavior when aggregating routes
containing this attribute.

Your text regarding ATOMIC_AGGREGATE seems very 1771'ish.  The current
text on ATOMIC_AGGREGATE isn't quite as stringent on how this
attribute is set.

This is also addressed in the revised draft, but is actually more of  
an implementation
issue.

Yes, the revised draft specifies both checks.

This was exactly why we were shifting to a static value and way from
decrement.

The draft references the encoding rules used in the 4 octet draft.

The revised draft specifies that confederations be ignored.  Extensions
on top of this are, as you note, optional and perhaps inevitable.

You'll pardon me if my paranoia regarding deaggregation hasn't abated in
the last 15 years.  ;-)  If you feel additional text is warranted,  
contributions are
most welcome.

Hmm, a simple decrement seems nicer.

I hate dependencies between attributes, particularly (here) on the=20
relatively vague property of path length. If you have to depend on=20
some other attribute, I'd prefer the no-export interaction/dependency=20
to this one.

My =E2=82=AC0.02 anyway.

It is not clear to me how this would work with "ASPATH prepend", 
especially in an environment where some routers recognize the new 
attribute, and some do not (thus can not adjust the hopcount with prepend).

More specifically, consider a routing announcement from A --> B --> C -- 
 > D --> E, each has its own AS (say a, b, c, d, e respectively).

1) Router A recognizes the attribute, and set the hopcount to 5 with the 
intention for the announcement to reach E.
2) Router B does not recognize the attribute, thus would pass the new 
attribute. But it does AS prepend toward C, and the ASPATH would be: b b 
b b a
3) Router C recognize the attribute, and would not advertise the route 
to D due to the hopcount.

On the other hand, the AS_HOPCOUNT as a decrementor does not have this 
loss of connectivity issue.

It seems to me that what you want is the "absolute length" of the AS 
Path--the number of unique AS' in the path--rather than the "literal 
length." I know most implemenations (no implementations?) can do this 
today, but the absolute length seems like the only way to actually make 
the as hop count work in all situations.

:-)

What if the prepend is "x y z" instead?

It seems to me that the "decrementor" as previously defined is simpler.

Would it be too bad to modify the hopcount at this point to reflect the 
number of prepend ASes?

I think the intention of Tony's text is clearer if it is rephrased as  
"static upper bound on the length of the modified AS_PATH attribute",  
where the modification referred to is the elimination of private-use  
numbers, etc.

Correct.

When viewed from another angle, AS_HOPCOUNT as decrementor fails to  
take account of the fact that B is prepending towards C (presumably  
for a reason). It does not seem inconsistent with the intentions of  
A's operator for the route to be dropped in this case before it  
reaches E.

Even with more elaborate mechanisms at your disposal, when you're  
second-guessign the routing policies of remote networks, the best you  
can do is try to influence propagation. There is no absolute control.

I think they are both fairly simple.

I think that bounding the AS_PATH length has greater chance of being  
useful in the short term for applications where propagating too  
little is greatly preferred over propagating too widely (e.g. "local  
nodes" providing anycast service distribution): the AS-count variable  
(AS_PATH) continues to happen in routers without this new functionality.

By comparison, the decrementor behaviour (without the NO_EXPORT  
interaction, which was intended to bridge the implementation gap)  
will need quite substantial deployment before it can be used for the  
anycast node application.

Clearly anycast nodes are not the only potential consumers of this  
mechanism, but it seems like a shame not to accommodate their  
requirements if we can.

In addition to Joe's comments...

The problem that we had with decrementing the hopcount is that the  
semantics of this got VERY
messy when we also tried to take into account partial deployment.   
Which AS's decrement?  Which
routers within the AS decrement?  It all depends on the software rev  
of each individual router.
You could have two routers from the same AS that advertise the same  
prefix to you with
two different hopcounts, all based on the same original advertisement.

Having a static constant in the attribute is simpler, in that the  
first receiver that supports PATHLIMIT
that sees a too-long AS_PATH can discard the route.  There is no  
ambiguity about the semantics.

Yes, we need to deal with prepend, but whatever way we choose, the  
semantics are straightforward.
And if there is *ANYTHING* that my years of experience have taught  
me, it's to favor the
straightforward semantics.  ;-)

Tony

p.s. I should also point out that this issue was discussed on the  
mailing list a few weeks ago.  The
consensus on this issue seemed pretty clear to me.  Folks in favor of  
decrement were NOT
speaking up.

I think this is exactly the direction to follow.  This lessens my 
concerns of this attribute considerably.  The simpler, the better.

This is necessary for partial deployment.

I don't have an opinion on renaming as long as the draft moves forward.

I'm not expert enough (yet) to have an opinion on NO_EXPORT.

I don't have a strong enough opinion on wanting the decrement to
warrant a serious objection, just a preference.  I think I'll buy
into your argument that the fewer routers that have to worry about
actually changing the attribute, the better.  I withdraw my previous
support for using decrement. 

I would definitely like to see more language about how we do the
counting.  Absolute path length seems to be the wrong choice.  I think that
Russ's verbiage about distinct ASes is close.  I'd suggest that
we count any recurring adjacent sequences of an AS in one or more 
AS_SEQUENCEs as length 1 and simply count an entire AS_SET, regardless
of content, as length 1.

Ergo:

1 1 1 2 3 3 2 [5 6 7]

would count as length 5.  Yes, there's an intentional loop in there.

This is somewhat problematic when dealing with a 2 byte speaker
with AS_TRANS in the AS_PATH.  Without peeking into the NEW_AS_PATH,
you can't tell if multiple occurrences are distinct ASes or not.  This
affects how I'd expect path length counting to occur.

Of course, if you're counting absolute path length, that changes things.

(I'm really hoping you're not counting absolute path length.)

Let's just say I share your paranoia.  However, the current BGP RFC-to-be
doesn't use that particular verbiage and this leaves this document
out of "harmony".  I say this mostly because no one seems to implement
ATOMIC_AGGREGATE in the way that suggested in 1771.  Additionally, per
some e-mail chains a few years ago, adding ATOMIC_AGGREGATE on an
outbound-only basis isn't sufficient.  Safest to just pretend we don't
deaggregate since it leads to madness.

Another aspect of decrementing hop count vs "absolute" path length.

If one uses a decrementing hop count and there is a security
mechanism in place that tries provides protections that would
allow ASes many hops away to verify the integrity of what
you sent (i.e., the portion of what they receive that is
what you sent), then the hop count would have to be excluded
from that protection.  It would be legitimately changing,
so you could not protect its integrity.

That probably would leave open opportunities for bad/stupid/broken
guys to modify the field inappropriately, with ill effect.

(Like the TTL field in IP is not covered by IPSEC because it
changes at each hop.)

If one had an static absolute path length, its integrity could be
protected over many hops.

The other main mechanism which restricts route propagation (the

I would expect any AS to be able to remove an AS_PATHLIMIT attribute  
if that suited their local policy, substituting a new one if desired.  
In that context, I'm not sure what integrity there is to preserve?

Some might argue the appropriateness of stripping the current
well known communities as potential security issues.  At best, you're
outright ignoring your peer's requirements to not propagate things.
However, rpsec might be a better place for this particular operational
discussion.

One component would simply be ensuring that someone doesn't put 
someone else's AS number in the hoplimit field.  The mechanism
by which your ensure that integrity is probably better discussed in
rpsec.

(However, I'll agree with Sandy that this makes things "easier" for
some of the things we've discussed on rpsec.)

The behavior of mis-setting values in this field are already
discussed with Tony's usual wit in the security considerations of
the draft. :-)

True; however, many operators might also argue that their ability to  
impose their own policy on the routes they choose to accept and  
propagate is more important.

Perhaps it's more realistic to call them "requests" rather then  
"requirements".

Agreed; apologies for the tangent.

Absolutely.

I suspect many operators (I know of several first hand) that reset all
community values received from eBGP peers and MAY reapply well-
known communities on ingress, but avoid carrying any additional
communities that have no meaning within their routing domain (e.g.,
to avoid effects on update packing, etc..).

As I understand it, the NO_EXPORT attribute is intended just
for your immediate neighbor, and is not supposed to be propagated
elsewhere.  There's this "MUST NOT be advertised" in the spec.

Security mechanisms typically try to ensure that behavior matches
the spec or assumptions in the specs.  So the trivial strippability
(and subsequent propagation) would be a security vulnerability.

>What kind of modification would you consider inappropriate?

Oh, you know, any modification in violation of what the spec says
should be done.  Like changing the value from 3 to 15 (in the static
upper bound case) or incrementing the value by 6 instead of
decrementing by 1 (in the decremented case).

It is tough to operate a distributed system when you are putting
values in packets that are supposed to elicit certain behaviors
in all recipients and some recipients break the rules and do
something else entirely.

>I would expect any AS to be able to remove an AS_PATHLIMIT attribute  
>if that suited their local policy, substituting a new one if desired.  

AS_PATHLIMIT is a value that is supposed to affect ASes some distance
away and prevent propagation of information past a certain point.
Saying in the spec "but other ASes are free to do anything they want
to this field" seems to me to limit its usefulness.  It would make
"the control that we hope to achieve" (to quote the i-d) a rather
undeterministic sort of control.  Why bother with a "oh, who knows,
this might have some effect someplaces, then again, maybe not"
specification for what the field means?

Or maybe you intend the field to be advice rather than prescription?

If you would rather have a more deterministic semantics for
the field, then you probably would want some integrity protection
for the value.

If you want to permit a "maybe, maybe not" semantics to the field,
then you don't need the integrity.

If you set a AS_PATHLIMIT of 4 and the AS four hops away strips that
and adds a AS_PATHLIMIT of 15, would that be OK?  You write into the
spec whether that would be OK, and the security protections try to
make the decision enforceable.

RRPSEC might be the place the discuss the integrity mechanism,
but making a choice between a static PATHLIMIT and a decrementing
HOPCOUNT is better made here.  Adding a snipit of thought
to security consequences to the choice is, to me, appropriate here.

And, of course, there's the question of what integrity means
here.  If you really want the field completely mutable by other
ASes, then the definition of "integrity" is rather broad.

W-e-e-l-l.  Tony says that those routers who attach this attribute
could have used "normal policy mechanisms" to filter out the route.
But I thought the whole point was that normal policy mechanisms
did not provide the control desired.

That'd be NO_ADVERTISE.

In reality, NO_EXPORT in practice is employed to convey to
AN ADJACENT AS that the route should not be advertised to
BGP peers outside of that AS (i.e., eBGP peers).

In this case, deployability is dictated by each operators policy
independently.  I.e., you desire for this to be the intended function
and hope your peers respect that behavior.  However, if your
peer disagrees with you about how they should operate their
network (e.g., not accepting MEDs, modifying paths, stripping
communities) then their not having the capability to enforce their
own policies would be a security vulnerability.

Fortunately, most folks realize this and leave it as a matter of
implementation support and each network operators policies.

This distributed system is enabled and controlled by the folks
operating the networks, not providing those folks with the
capabilities to implement what policies they see fit for their
environment (i.e., rather than allowing their peers/competitors
to manipulate their network policies) is, well, not an option.

This is no different than any other attribute.  For example, if
an upstream chooses not to announce a route, well, there's
little we can do about that.

Sure, why not?  If I'm the 4th AS and have reason to do so?  I own
my network resources?

But you don't own the resources of the person who'll eventually
receive the traffic.  I can certainly see a shady economic argument
that you'd want to disrespect control communities, even well recognized
ones, in order to sink more traffic across your network.  In many
cases, this would lead to increased revenue being exchanged between
AS 3 and AS 4.  AS 1, on the other hand, receives more traffic than
they may have wanted on that link.

In the case where different routes that would affect flow across
your network (A and B), I can see some justification to ignore
downstream preferences because you may want to manage your own
resources.  This justification is vague because AS_PATH is usually
a bigger knob to adjust these flows.

In the case of communities, I can see the semi-justification that
some policy languages make it difficult to "strip everything but
well known communities".

I can see the justification that you'd want to decrease the length
in order to further constrain the diameter to which the routes propagate.

I'm having a difficult time seeing (aside from the reasons above)
why you'd otherwise want to increase the diameter of propagation.
If you could expand on such possible reasons, I think a lot of us
would appreciate it.

Yes, sorry, inexact use of terminology.  When I said neighbors,
I meant your external peer, I wasn't thinking of iBGP neighbors.

Sending an update to your (ebgp) neighbor is not a prescription
of what he/she/it does with that update.  Sending an AS_HOPCOUNT/
AS_PATHLIMIT or a community of NO_EXPORT is a prescription of
what your (ebgp) neighbor is supposed to do with that update.
So they are really very different.

Then you mean the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT to be advice or a request,
and you can't expect anything particular to happen.

You should make this clear in the draft text.  In particular,
you should remove all "MUST" and "MUST NOT" from the text.
It makes no sense to say "MUST advertise an AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
of one less than the value received", if replacing the value
with any other value is OK.  It makes no sense to say
"If the attribute value is zero, the path MUST be ignored
without further processing", if the BGP speaker can chose to
ignore the limit and propagate.

Are you sure you know what you want here?  The language of the
draft sounds like certainty and determinism is desired, but
you are saying that no integrity protections are desired because
local policy might do anything it wanted.

Correct. Ditto for NO_EXPORT and MED (to choose two other attributes  
that are commonly meddled-with).

I don't think so.

The draft specifies the required behaviour for an implementation in  
the case where the attribute is present. Those requirements are  
orthogonal to whether or not an operator of an AS decides to  
implement policy which removes particular attributes which were added  
elsewhere.

This is no different to the processing of NO_EXPORT. The semantics of  
how a BGP speaker should process a route with the NO_EXPORT community  
string attribute attached are described clearly, using normative  
text, in RFC 1997. There is nothing to stop people removing NO_EXPORT  
from routes as suits their local policy, however, just as there is  
nothing to stop people adding NO_EXPORT to routes whose originators  
intended them to propagate further.

Influencing other peoples' policy is a necessarily inexact science.

I could make arguments for each of the above but it's futile.

My point is simply that as a network operator I have policies that
I employ on my network that are driven by both technical AND
business requirements, either of which may drive me to ignore,
strip or manipulate any attribute that could have an impact on the
operations of my business.  In short, I decide what route I provide
transit for and how I'll permit the TE-associated attributes of those
routes impact my network resources - AND who I allow to modify
those resources.

Now, with that said, operators of course realize what makes
practical sense and what doesn't, and they clearly factor that into
their policies.

The fact that BGP provides this capability is a large contributor to
it's success, IMO.

Sounds to me like you are quibbling - if the AS removes the
attribute and creates a new lookalike with a value that would
not follow the spec, then it is OK.

I don't think "this isn't a modification, it is a deletion and
insertion" is necessarily always justified.

Or maybe you don't realize that I'm talking about changing the
value in an existing attribute.

So - suppose you create a PATHLIMIT of 4 and *two* hops away,
someone changes the limit to 15?  I.E., not a new attribute,
keeping your AS number in the attribute and all that.  Is that
still OK with you?  If we're talking about HOPCOUNT, if you
create a HOPCOUNT of 4 and two hops away someone adds 6?
Still OK?  These aren't at the limit you've specified for the
propagation of the route, the changes are somewhere along the way.

No, it's a prescription of what *you'd like your neighbor* to do with
the update.

Like it or not, isn't that the way routing in the Internet works today?

This applies to ALL attributes deployed today - why the exception
here?

Again, like it or not, that's the nature of routing in the Internet
today.  Think about it..  What if someone downstream wanted
to manipulate a competitors traffic flows and they couldn't do
anything about it?

First and foremost, operators have to protect their networks and
employ policies that make good technical and business sense.
Then they can permit and employ features such as this.  In reality,
most likely would support it, e.g., for the reasons outlined in the
draft, but determinism is a bit of a misnomer in the real world when
your considering thousands of companies globally, all with different
legal, regulatory, business and economic motivations.

<tweet>

Ok, this conversation, while interesting, is getting more than a wee  
bit off
topic.

Can we please take it to RPSEC?  The entire issue of what RPSEC will
protect, how it can protect mutable attributes and not force a full  
re-engineering
of the entire Internet is NOT something that we should be solving here.

PATHLIMIT is certainly intended to be one of those mutable attributes,
either because it is being decrement, applied by proxy, or both.

The point is that this does not create a new security hole, as manually
configured route filters could result in the same restrictions on
propagation today, but would require TONS more coordination
and other management hair.  Thus, the new attribute does not
make the security situation appreciably worse than it is today.

Well, the language that I'm proposing is slightly different in intent  
and result.
Regardless, when the revised draft is issued, I'd welcome alternate  
proposals
and contributions of specific language that capture WG consensus.

Good point.  Let's also put that on the agenda.

If the PATHLIMIT is intended to be mutable, then the conversation
can cease here and you don't need to take anything to RPSEC -
if the intent is to let anyone modify the attribute in any way,
there there is no integrity security needed.

Making that clear in the spec would, IMHO, a good thing.
It would be easy to read "PATHLIMIT" and "MUST advertise
an AS_HOPCOUNT atribute of one less than the value received"
and "If the attribute value is zero, the path MUST be ignored
without further processing" and think something more deterministic
was going on than a mutable attribute that was advice only.

RPSEC is charged with threat models and security analysis and
requirements, with "routing protocol designers" charged with
using the RPSEC products to ensure security in their protocols.
At least, that's what the charter says now.

Please see section 5.2.  We clearly state that AS_HOPCOUNT may
be used in a proxy fashion.

I believe that it's a rush to the other side of the spectrum to say that
no integrity security is needed.  There are a number of mutable
attributes necessary for fully functioning BGP (e.g., AS_PATH,
communities).  Hopefully whatever solution RPSEC selects to
protect these attributes will also be useable for AS_HOPCOUNT or
AS_PATHLIMIT.

Hopefully someone, somewhere will actually have responsibility for
coming up with some actual, workable security mechanisms and
specifications for implementations that still provide inter-domain
routing functionality in a manner that is actually useful and deployable
sometime before the heat death of the universe.

The AS_PATH is mutable, but the decision of what mutations are
permitted is one of the stumbling blocks in determining a solution.

If you go by the "MUST/MUST NOT" in the bgp spec, you come up with
one idea of what is permitted.  If you go by the what vendors
allow you to configure your routers to do, you come
up with a much different idea of what is permitted.


But whichever modification rule for AS_PATH you follow, there
may not be sufficient match to the semantics of the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT
to make the security protections for AS_PATH also protect the
HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT.

You imply you think that there is integrity required.  But the
conclusion I've reached from other email is that people want any
AS to be allowed to strip, replace, or modify the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT.
What sort of integrity do you see that would still allow that?
(Question, not dig.  Really - what integrity requirement do you see?
Limitation on who could strip/replacy/modify?)

Please see the revised version when I am permitted to post it.  If you
have comments on that version, then we should discuss them.

That is true.  However, as there are no proposed mechanisms for
AS_PATH, I don't see much point in arguing about whether the
not-yet-proposed semantics are sufficient or not.

Well, as I tried to point out, I think that you're leaping to all  
sorts of
conclusions, mostly unwarranted.  With regard to AS_PATHLIMIT,
I would like to see several properties.  For one example, if an
AS attaches AS_PATHLIMIT, I would like to know that the AS number
that it attaches is its AS number and no other.

There are a number of other security properties that I would like to  
see,
but again, they are general properties that should be applicable to all
BGP path attributes, not just AS_PATHLIMIT.  As such, I would prefer
to discuss them as part of RPSEC.

Tony

I may be misusing security taxonomy, but I think the property we'd
be interested in for this case is accountability.  Knowing who
made the change is often a good start to take some form of action
when someone acts contrary to your expectations.

Yes, I think that is absolutely right.  Decrementing counts was fine when the
community was smaller and closer knit, more trustworthy perhaps.  In the present
heterogeneous world, I think static upper bound the right approach.  It is also
easier to secure whatever form security ultimately takes.

Not sure that this is completely possible; to take the view that any reason not
to advertise means do not advertise is a form of interaction, which might
conflict with the use of AS_PATHLIMIT (no, I haven't got a concrete example of
when this would happen)

I think what Tony meant by his sentence above was that the  
interaction specified in draft-idr-as-hopcount-00 would be removed as  
part of this revision. No greater philosophical message should be  
inferred :-)

   Will somebody please own up to telling Tony he may not publish the
revised draft to the list?

   This is taking on a Kafka-esque feeling that we're expected to
agree we have consensus on something before we're allowed to find
out what it is we're consenting to.

This was the directive of our esteemed chairs.  Apparently this is now
the modus operandi of the IETF when one wants to re-architect
a draft.

I wholeheartedly agree.  Furthermore, I'm trying to play by the rules
as stated, which for those that know me, adds to the surreal
tableau.

Guys:=20

Sorry for the kafka-esque feeling. =20

We had agreement 20-30 people the work group on the last draft
that it was useful work.  And no one strongly objected.=20

Just floating by the changes to those same parties to make sure we're
still on-track is the goal.  And to make sure new objections don't
get too strong.=20

Don't get too bound up in the process.=20

If it aids, we can just send a note to all those who agreed previous and
go from there.  I or Tony can do that and publish the results to the
list.=20

Cheers,

Sue Hares=20
Co-chair

This was the directive of our esteemed chairs.  Apparently this is now
the modus operandi of the IETF when one wants to re-architect
a draft.

I wholeheartedly agree.  Furthermore, I'm trying to play by the rules
as stated, which for those that know me, adds to the surreal
tableau.

;-)

I know of at least 5, with two of them generalized in the BGP security
requirements draft.  Some of those match semantics you might choose,
some of them do not, depending on what you choose.

>For one example, if an
>AS attaches AS_PATHLIMIT, I would like to know that the AS number

That's good.  And then there's more to discuss from there.

>As such, I would prefer
>to discuss them as part of RPSEC.

I would recommend starting the discussion now.  The scenario to avoid
is:

idr to security/rpsec: OK, we've done with the draft.  Now tell us how to
                       secure it.
security/rpsec to idr: Oh, we see you made the design choice that is
                       really, really hard to protect.  Too bad.
idr to security/rpsec: Why can't you people ever come up with a deployable
                       security solution!!

I haven't seen any mention of the fact on the list, so I thought I'd be
the first to congratulate the working group chairs and routing area
directors and rfc editors in the emergence of the septuplet set of 
BGP RFCs after a prolonged confinement.

As one of those who were gently nudged, urged, and cattle-proded as
needed toward completing the final steps, I want to thank them all.

Folks,
 
Its about time to start thinking about agenda items for the next
IETF. Please forward any IDR agenda items you might have to me and Sue.

If you plan to make a presentation, please also keep in mind the 
rule "no document - no time slot".

Sue & Yakov.

Yakov, Sue,

I'd like to request a slot at next IETF to present:
draft-levy-idr-6pe-survey-00.txt , "Connecting IPv6 Islands over IPv4
MPLS using IPv6 Provider Edge Routers (6PE)- Implementation Report".

This document will be posted very shortly. It reports the results of the
implementation survey for the 6PE (aka draft-ooms-v6ops-bgp-tunnel-xx).
As discussed, this Implementation Report is in line with the Routing
Area's procedures, so we can proceed with RFCization of
draft-ooms-v6ops-bgp-tunnel.

Thank you

Francois

The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'BGP Route Reflection - An Alternative to Full Mesh IBGP '
   <draft-ietf-idr-rfc2796bis-02.txt> as a Draft Standard

This document is the product of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Bill Fenner and Alex Zinin.

A URL of this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-rfc2796bis-02.txt

Technical Summary

   This document describes the use and design of a method known as
   "Route Reflection" to alleviate the the need for "full mesh" IBGP.
   Route Reflection relaxes the rule that a route learned via IBGP
   must not be sent to another IBGP peer, for designated peers
   called "Route Reflectors".  It then replaces the full mesh among
   IBGP speakers with a single peering to a Route Reflector.
   This update adds an update to the BGP Decision Process.
 
Working Group Summary

   There was working group consensus to advance this
   specification to Draft Standard.
 
Protocol Quality
 
   Bill Fenner reviewed this specification for the IESG.  There are
   several known implementations, as described in the accompanying
   implementation report, available at the following URL:
   http://www.ietf.org/IESG/Implementations/RFC2796-implementations.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Subcodes for BGP Cease Notification Message
	Author(s)	: E. Chen, V. Gillet
	Filename	: draft-ietf-idr-cease-subcode-07.txt
	Pages		: 6
	Date		: 2006-1-25
	
This document defines several subcodes for the BGP Cease NOTIFICATION
   message that would provide more information to aid network operators
   in correlating network events and diagnosing BGP peering issues.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-cease-subcode-07.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4
	Author(s)	: T. Bates, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-idr-rfc2858bis-08.txt
	Pages		: 12
	Date		: 2006-1-27
	
Currently BGP-4 is capable of carrying routing information only for
   IPv4. This document defines extensions to BGP-4 to enable it to carry
   routing information for multiple Network Layer protocols (e.g., IPv6,
   IPX, etc...). The extensions are backward compatible - a router that
   supports the extensions can interoperate with a router that doesn't
   support the extensions.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The AS_PATHLIMIT Path Attribute
	Author(s)	: T. Li, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-idr-as-pathlimit-00.txt
	Pages		: 15
	Date		: 2006-1-31
	
   This document describes the 'AS path limit' (AS_PATHLIMIT) path
   attribute for BGP.  This is an optional, transitive path attribute
   that is designed to help limit the distribution of routing
   information in the Internet.

   By default, prefixes advertised into the BGP graph are distributed
   freely, and if not blocked by policy will propagate globally.  This
   is harmful to the scalability of the routing subsystem since
   information that only has a local effect on routing will cause state
   creation throughout the default-free zone.  This attribute can be
   attached to a particular path to limit its scope to a subset of the
   Internet.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-as-pathlimit-00.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.  
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.


Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-idr-as-pathlimit-00.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-as-pathlimit-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Yakov, Sue,

I'd like to request a slot at next IETF to present:
draft-levy-idr-6pe-survey-00.txt , "Connecting IPv6 Islands over IPv4
MPLS using IPv6 Provider Edge Routers (6PE)- Implementation Report".

This document will be posted very shortly. It reports the results of the
implementation survey for the 6PE (aka draft-ooms-v6ops-bgp-tunnel-xx).
As discussed, this Implementation Report is in line with the Routing
Area's procedures, so we can proceed with RFCization of
draft-ooms-v6ops-bgp-tunnel.

Thank you

Francois

I haven't seen any mention of the fact on the list, so I thought I'd be
the first to congratulate the working group chairs and routing area
directors and rfc editors in the emergence of the septuplet set of 
BGP RFCs after a prolonged confinement.

As one of those who were gently nudged, urged, and cattle-proded as
needed toward completing the final steps, I want to thank them all.

--Sandy

I know of at least 5, with two of them generalized in the BGP security
requirements draft.  Some of those match semantics you might choose,
some of them do not, depending on what you choose.

That's good.  And then there's more to discuss from there.

>As such, I would prefer

I would recommend starting the discussion now.  The scenario to avoid
is:

idr to security/rpsec: OK, we've done with the draft.  Now tell us how to
                       secure it.
security/rpsec to idr: Oh, we see you made the design choice that is
                       really, really hard to protect.  Too bad.
idr to security/rpsec: Why can't you people ever come up with a deployable
                       security solution!!

Guys: 

Sorry for the kafka-esque feeling.  

We had agreement 20-30 people the work group on the last draft
that it was useful work.  And no one strongly objected. 

Just floating by the changes to those same parties to make sure we're
still on-track is the goal.  And to make sure new objections don't
get too strong. 

Don't get too bound up in the process. 

If it aids, we can just send a note to all those who agreed previous and
go from there.  I or Tony can do that and publish the results to the
list. 

Cheers,

Sue Hares 
Co-chair

This was the directive of our esteemed chairs.  Apparently this is now
the modus operandi of the IETF when one wants to re-architect
a draft.

I wholeheartedly agree.  Furthermore, I'm trying to play by the rules
as stated, which for those that know me, adds to the surreal
tableau.

   Will somebody please own up to telling Tony he may not publish the

   This is taking on a Kafka-esque feeling that we're expected to
agree we have consensus on something before we're allowed to find

I think what Tony meant by his sentence above was that the  
interaction specified in draft-idr-as-hopcount-00 would be removed as  
part of this revision. No greater philosophical message should be  
inferred :-)

Yes, I think that is absolutely right.  Decrementing counts was fine when the
community was smaller and closer knit, more trustworthy perhaps.  In the present
heterogeneous world, I think static upper bound the right approach.  It is also
easier to secure whatever form security ultimately takes.

Not sure that this is completely possible; to take the view that any reason not
to advertise means do not advertise is a form of interaction, which might
conflict with the use of AS_PATHLIMIT (no, I haven't got a concrete example of
when this would happen)

I may be misusing security taxonomy, but I think the property we'd
be interested in for this case is accountability.  Knowing who
made the change is often a good start to take some form of action
when someone acts contrary to your expectations.

Please see the revised version when I am permitted to post it.  If you
have comments on that version, then we should discuss them.

That is true.  However, as there are no proposed mechanisms for
AS_PATH, I don't see much point in arguing about whether the
not-yet-proposed semantics are sufficient or not.

Well, as I tried to point out, I think that you're leaping to all  
sorts of
conclusions, mostly unwarranted.  With regard to AS_PATHLIMIT,
I would like to see several properties.  For one example, if an
AS attaches AS_PATHLIMIT, I would like to know that the AS number
that it attaches is its AS number and no other.

There are a number of other security properties that I would like to  
see,
but again, they are general properties that should be applicable to all
BGP path attributes, not just AS_PATHLIMIT.  As such, I would prefer
to discuss them as part of RPSEC.

Tony

The AS_PATH is mutable, but the decision of what mutations are
permitted is one of the stumbling blocks in determining a solution.

If you go by the "MUST/MUST NOT" in the bgp spec, you come up with
one idea of what is permitted.  If you go by the what vendors
allow you to configure your routers to do, you come
up with a much different idea of what is permitted.


But whichever modification rule for AS_PATH you follow, there
may not be sufficient match to the semantics of the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT
to make the security protections for AS_PATH also protect the
HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT.

You imply you think that there is integrity required.  But the
conclusion I've reached from other email is that people want any
AS to be allowed to strip, replace, or modify the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT.
What sort of integrity do you see that would still allow that?
(Question, not dig.  Really - what integrity requirement do you see?
Limitation on who could strip/replacy/modify?)

Please see section 5.2.  We clearly state that AS_HOPCOUNT may
be used in a proxy fashion.

I believe that it's a rush to the other side of the spectrum to say that
no integrity security is needed.  There are a number of mutable
attributes necessary for fully functioning BGP (e.g., AS_PATH,
communities).  Hopefully whatever solution RPSEC selects to
protect these attributes will also be useable for AS_HOPCOUNT or
AS_PATHLIMIT.

Hopefully someone, somewhere will actually have responsibility for
coming up with some actual, workable security mechanisms and
specifications for implementations that still provide inter-domain
routing functionality in a manner that is actually useful and deployable
sometime before the heat death of the universe.

If the PATHLIMIT is intended to be mutable, then the conversation
can cease here and you don't need to take anything to RPSEC -
if the intent is to let anyone modify the attribute in any way,
there there is no integrity security needed.

Making that clear in the spec would, IMHO, a good thing.
It would be easy to read "PATHLIMIT" and "MUST advertise
an AS_HOPCOUNT atribute of one less than the value received"
and "If the attribute value is zero, the path MUST be ignored
without further processing" and think something more deterministic
was going on than a mutable attribute that was advice only.

>The entire issue of what RPSEC will

RPSEC is charged with threat models and security analysis and
requirements, with "routing protocol designers" charged with
using the RPSEC products to ensure security in their protocols.
At least, that's what the charter says now.

Well, the language that I'm proposing is slightly different in intent  
and result.
Regardless, when the revised draft is issued, I'd welcome alternate  
proposals
and contributions of specific language that capture WG consensus.

Good point.  Let's also put that on the agenda.

The point is that this does not create a new security hole, as manually
configured route filters could result in the same restrictions on
propagation today, but would require TONS more coordination
and other management hair.  Thus, the new attribute does not
make the security situation appreciably worse than it is today.

Ok, this conversation, while interesting, is getting more than a wee  
bit off
topic.

Can we please take it to RPSEC?  The entire issue of what RPSEC will
protect, how it can protect mutable attributes and not force a full  
re-engineering
of the entire Internet is NOT something that we should be solving here.

PATHLIMIT is certainly intended to be one of those mutable attributes,
either because it is being decrement, applied by proxy, or both.

No, it's a prescription of what *you'd like your neighbor* to do with
the update.

This applies to ALL attributes deployed today - why the exception
here?

Again, like it or not, that's the nature of routing in the Internet
today.  Think about it..  What if someone downstream wanted
to manipulate a competitors traffic flows and they couldn't do
anything about it?

First and foremost, operators have to protect their networks and
employ policies that make good technical and business sense.
Then they can permit and employ features such as this.  In reality,
most likely would support it, e.g., for the reasons outlined in the
draft, but determinism is a bit of a misnomer in the real world when
your considering thousands of companies globally, all with different
legal, regulatory, business and economic motivations.

Sounds to me like you are quibbling - if the AS removes the
attribute and creates a new lookalike with a value that would
not follow the spec, then it is OK.

I don't think "this isn't a modification, it is a deletion and
insertion" is necessarily always justified.

Or maybe you don't realize that I'm talking about changing the
value in an existing attribute.

So - suppose you create a PATHLIMIT of 4 and *two* hops away,
someone changes the limit to 15?  I.E., not a new attribute,
keeping your AS number in the attribute and all that.  Is that
still OK with you?  If we're talking about HOPCOUNT, if you
create a HOPCOUNT of 4 and two hops away someone adds 6?
Still OK?  These aren't at the limit you've specified for the
propagation of the route, the changes are somewhere along the way.

I could make arguments for each of the above but it's futile.

My point is simply that as a network operator I have policies that
I employ on my network that are driven by both technical AND
business requirements, either of which may drive me to ignore,
strip or manipulate any attribute that could have an impact on the
operations of my business.  In short, I decide what route I provide
transit for and how I'll permit the TE-associated attributes of those
routes impact my network resources - AND who I allow to modify
those resources.

Now, with that said, operators of course realize what makes
practical sense and what doesn't, and they clearly factor that into
their policies.

The fact that BGP provides this capability is a large contributor to
it's success, IMO.

Correct. Ditto for NO_EXPORT and MED (to choose two other attributes  
that are commonly meddled-with).

I don't think so.

The draft specifies the required behaviour for an implementation in  
the case where the attribute is present. Those requirements are  
orthogonal to whether or not an operator of an AS decides to  
implement policy which removes particular attributes which were added  
elsewhere.

This is no different to the processing of NO_EXPORT. The semantics of  
how a BGP speaker should process a route with the NO_EXPORT community  
string attribute attached are described clearly, using normative  
text, in RFC 1997. There is nothing to stop people removing NO_EXPORT  
from routes as suits their local policy, however, just as there is  
nothing to stop people adding NO_EXPORT to routes whose originators  
intended them to propagate further.

Influencing other peoples' policy is a necessarily inexact science.

Yes, sorry, inexact use of terminology.  When I said neighbors,
I meant your external peer, I wasn't thinking of iBGP neighbors.

Sending an update to your (ebgp) neighbor is not a prescription
of what he/she/it does with that update.  Sending an AS_HOPCOUNT/
AS_PATHLIMIT or a community of NO_EXPORT is a prescription of
what your (ebgp) neighbor is supposed to do with that update.
So they are really very different.

Then you mean the HOPCOUNT/PATHLIMIT to be advice or a request,
and you can't expect anything particular to happen.

You should make this clear in the draft text.  In particular,
you should remove all "MUST" and "MUST NOT" from the text.
It makes no sense to say "MUST advertise an AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
of one less than the value received", if replacing the value
with any other value is OK.  It makes no sense to say
"If the attribute value is zero, the path MUST be ignored
without further processing", if the BGP speaker can chose to
ignore the limit and propagate.

Are you sure you know what you want here?  The language of the
draft sounds like certainty and determinism is desired, but
you are saying that no integrity protections are desired because
local policy might do anything it wanted.

But you don't own the resources of the person who'll eventually
receive the traffic.  I can certainly see a shady economic argument
that you'd want to disrespect control communities, even well recognized
ones, in order to sink more traffic across your network.  In many
cases, this would lead to increased revenue being exchanged between
AS 3 and AS 4.  AS 1, on the other hand, receives more traffic than
they may have wanted on that link.

In the case where different routes that would affect flow across
your network (A and B), I can see some justification to ignore
downstream preferences because you may want to manage your own
resources.  This justification is vague because AS_PATH is usually
a bigger knob to adjust these flows.

In the case of communities, I can see the semi-justification that
some policy languages make it difficult to "strip everything but
well known communities".

I can see the justification that you'd want to decrease the length
in order to further constrain the diameter to which the routes propagate.

I'm having a difficult time seeing (aside from the reasons above)
why you'd otherwise want to increase the diameter of propagation.
If you could expand on such possible reasons, I think a lot of us
would appreciate it.

That'd be NO_ADVERTISE.

In reality, NO_EXPORT in practice is employed to convey to
AN ADJACENT AS that the route should not be advertised to
BGP peers outside of that AS (i.e., eBGP peers).

In this case, deployability is dictated by each operators policy
independently.  I.e., you desire for this to be the intended function
and hope your peers respect that behavior.  However, if your
peer disagrees with you about how they should operate their
network (e.g., not accepting MEDs, modifying paths, stripping
communities) then their not having the capability to enforce their
own policies would be a security vulnerability.

Fortunately, most folks realize this and leave it as a matter of
implementation support and each network operators policies.

This distributed system is enabled and controlled by the folks
operating the networks, not providing those folks with the
capabilities to implement what policies they see fit for their
environment (i.e., rather than allowing their peers/competitors
to manipulate their network policies) is, well, not an option.

This is no different than any other attribute.  For example, if
an upstream chooses not to announce a route, well, there's
little we can do about that.

Sure, why not?  If I'm the 4th AS and have reason to do so?  I own
my network resources?

RRPSEC might be the place the discuss the integrity mechanism,
but making a choice between a static PATHLIMIT and a decrementing
HOPCOUNT is better made here.  Adding a snipit of thought
to security consequences to the choice is, to me, appropriate here.

And, of course, there's the question of what integrity means
here.  If you really want the field completely mutable by other
ASes, then the definition of "integrity" is rather broad.

>The behavior of mis-setting values in this field are already

W-e-e-l-l.  Tony says that those routers who attach this attribute
could have used "normal policy mechanisms" to filter out the route.
But I thought the whole point was that normal policy mechanisms
did not provide the control desired.

As I understand it, the NO_EXPORT attribute is intended just
for your immediate neighbor, and is not supposed to be propagated
elsewhere.  There's this "MUST NOT be advertised" in the spec.

Security mechanisms typically try to ensure that behavior matches
the spec or assumptions in the specs.  So the trivial strippability
(and subsequent propagation) would be a security vulnerability.

>What kind of modification would you consider inappropriate?

Oh, you know, any modification in violation of what the spec says
should be done.  Like changing the value from 3 to 15 (in the static
upper bound case) or incrementing the value by 6 instead of
decrementing by 1 (in the decremented case).

It is tough to operate a distributed system when you are putting
values in packets that are supposed to elicit certain behaviors
in all recipients and some recipients break the rules and do
something else entirely.

AS_PATHLIMIT is a value that is supposed to affect ASes some distance
away and prevent propagation of information past a certain point.
Saying in the spec "but other ASes are free to do anything they want
to this field" seems to me to limit its usefulness.  It would make
"the control that we hope to achieve" (to quote the i-d) a rather
undeterministic sort of control.  Why bother with a "oh, who knows,
this might have some effect someplaces, then again, maybe not"
specification for what the field means?

Or maybe you intend the field to be advice rather than prescription?

If you would rather have a more deterministic semantics for
the field, then you probably would want some integrity protection
for the value.

If you want to permit a "maybe, maybe not" semantics to the field,
then you don't need the integrity.

If you set a AS_PATHLIMIT of 4 and the AS four hops away strips that
and adds a AS_PATHLIMIT of 15, would that be OK?  You write into the
spec whether that would be OK, and the security protections try to
make the decision enforceable.

Absolutely.

I suspect many operators (I know of several first hand) that reset all
community values received from eBGP peers and MAY reapply well-
known communities on ingress, but avoid carrying any additional
communities that have no meaning within their routing domain (e.g.,
to avoid effects on update packing, etc..).

True; however, many operators might also argue that their ability to  
impose their own policy on the routes they choose to accept and  
propagate is more important.

Perhaps it's more realistic to call them "requests" rather then  
"requirements".

Agreed; apologies for the tangent.

Some might argue the appropriateness of stripping the current
well known communities as potential security issues.  At best, you're
outright ignoring your peer's requirements to not propagate things.
However, rpsec might be a better place for this particular operational
discussion.

One component would simply be ensuring that someone doesn't put 
someone else's AS number in the hoplimit field.  The mechanism
by which your ensure that integrity is probably better discussed in
rpsec.

(However, I'll agree with Sandy that this makes things "easier" for
some of the things we've discussed on rpsec.)

The behavior of mis-setting values in this field are already
discussed with Tony's usual wit in the security considerations of
the draft. :-)

The other main mechanism which restricts route propagation (the  
NO_EXPORT community string attribute) is trivial to strip from  
routes, overriding the intentions of the previous AS in the path. In  
general, surely every AS has a legitimate case for modifying the  
attributes on prefixes to suit its own needs.

What kind of modification would you consider inappropriate?

I would expect any AS to be able to remove an AS_PATHLIMIT attribute  
if that suited their local policy, substituting a new one if desired.  
In that context, I'm not sure what integrity there is to preserve?

Another aspect of decrementing hop count vs "absolute" path length.

If one uses a decrementing hop count and there is a security
mechanism in place that tries provides protections that would
allow ASes many hops away to verify the integrity of what
you sent (i.e., the portion of what they receive that is
what you sent), then the hop count would have to be excluded
from that protection.  It would be legitimately changing,
so you could not protect its integrity.

That probably would leave open opportunities for bad/stupid/broken
guys to modify the field inappropriately, with ill effect.

(Like the TTL field in IP is not covered by IPSEC because it
changes at each hop.)

If one had an static absolute path length, its integrity could be
protected over many hops.

I don't have a strong enough opinion on wanting the decrement to
warrant a serious objection, just a preference.  I think I'll buy
into your argument that the fewer routers that have to worry about
actually changing the attribute, the better.  I withdraw my previous
support for using decrement. 

I would definitely like to see more language about how we do the
counting.  Absolute path length seems to be the wrong choice.  I think that
Russ's verbiage about distinct ASes is close.  I'd suggest that
we count any recurring adjacent sequences of an AS in one or more 
AS_SEQUENCEs as length 1 and simply count an entire AS_SET, regardless
of content, as length 1.

Ergo:

1 1 1 2 3 3 2 [5 6 7]

would count as length 5.  Yes, there's an intentional loop in there.

This is somewhat problematic when dealing with a 2 byte speaker
with AS_TRANS in the AS_PATH.  Without peeking into the NEW_AS_PATH,
you can't tell if multiple occurrences are distinct ASes or not.  This
affects how I'd expect path length counting to occur.

Of course, if you're counting absolute path length, that changes things.

(I'm really hoping you're not counting absolute path length.)

Let's just say I share your paranoia.  However, the current BGP RFC-to-be
doesn't use that particular verbiage and this leaves this document
out of "harmony".  I say this mostly because no one seems to implement
ATOMIC_AGGREGATE in the way that suggested in 1771.  Additionally, per
some e-mail chains a few years ago, adding ATOMIC_AGGREGATE on an
outbound-only basis isn't sufficient.  Safest to just pretend we don't
deaggregate since it leads to madness.

I don't have an opinion on renaming as long as the draft moves forward.

I'm not expert enough (yet) to have an opinion on NO_EXPORT.

I think this is exactly the direction to follow.  This lessens my 
concerns of this attribute considerably.  The simpler, the better.

In addition to Joe's comments...

The problem that we had with decrementing the hopcount is that the  
semantics of this got VERY
messy when we also tried to take into account partial deployment.   
Which AS's decrement?  Which
routers within the AS decrement?  It all depends on the software rev  
of each individual router.
You could have two routers from the same AS that advertise the same  
prefix to you with
two different hopcounts, all based on the same original advertisement.

Having a static constant in the attribute is simpler, in that the  
first receiver that supports PATHLIMIT
that sees a too-long AS_PATH can discard the route.  There is no  
ambiguity about the semantics.

Yes, we need to deal with prepend, but whatever way we choose, the  
semantics are straightforward.
And if there is *ANYTHING* that my years of experience have taught  
me, it's to favor the
straightforward semantics.  ;-)

Tony

p.s. I should also point out that this issue was discussed on the  
mailing list a few weeks ago.  The
consensus on this issue seemed pretty clear to me.  Folks in favor of  
decrement were NOT
speaking up.

I think they are both fairly simple.

I think that bounding the AS_PATH length has greater chance of being  
useful in the short term for applications where propagating too  
little is greatly preferred over propagating too widely (e.g. "local  
nodes" providing anycast service distribution): the AS-count variable  
(AS_PATH) continues to happen in routers without this new functionality.

By comparison, the decrementor behaviour (without the NO_EXPORT  
interaction, which was intended to bridge the implementation gap)  
will need quite substantial deployment before it can be used for the  
anycast node application.

Clearly anycast nodes are not the only potential consumers of this  
mechanism, but it seems like a shame not to accommodate their  
requirements if we can.

I think the intention of Tony's text is clearer if it is rephrased as  
"static upper bound on the length of the modified AS_PATH attribute",  
where the modification referred to is the elimination of private-use  
numbers, etc.

Correct.

When viewed from another angle, AS_HOPCOUNT as decrementor fails to  
take account of the fact that B is prepending towards C (presumably  
for a reason). It does not seem inconsistent with the intentions of  
A's operator for the route to be dropped in this case before it  
reaches E.

Even with more elaborate mechanisms at your disposal, when you're  
second-guessign the routing policies of remote networks, the best you  
can do is try to influence propagation. There is no absolute control.

Would it be too bad to modify the hopcount at this point to reflect the 
number of prepend ASes?

What if the prepend is "x y z" instead?

It seems to me that the "decrementor" as previously defined is simpler.

It seems to me that what you want is the "absolute length" of the AS 
Path--the number of unique AS' in the path--rather than the "literal 
length." I know most implemenations (no implementations?) can do this 
today, but the absolute length seems like the only way to actually make 
the as hop count work in all situations.

It is not clear to me how this would work with "ASPATH prepend", 
especially in an environment where some routers recognize the new 
attribute, and some do not (thus can not adjust the hopcount with prepend).

More specifically, consider a routing announcement from A --> B --> C -- 
 > D --> E, each has its own AS (say a, b, c, d, e respectively).

1) Router A recognizes the attribute, and set the hopcount to 5 with the 
intention for the announcement to reach E.
2) Router B does not recognize the attribute, thus would pass the new 
attribute. But it does AS prepend toward C, and the ASPATH would be: b b 
b b a
3) Router C recognize the attribute, and would not advertise the route 
to D due to the hopcount.

On the other hand, the AS_HOPCOUNT as a decrementor does not have this 
loss of connectivity issue.

Hmm, a simple decrement seems nicer.

I hate dependencies between attributes, particularly (here) on the=20
relatively vague property of path length. If you have to depend on=20
some other attribute, I'd prefer the no-export interaction/dependency=20
to this one.

My =E2=82=AC0.02 anyway.

This is also addressed in the revised draft, but is actually more of  
an implementation
issue.

Yes, the revised draft specifies both checks.

This was exactly why we were shifting to a static value and way from
decrement.

The draft references the encoding rules used in the 4 octet draft.

The revised draft specifies that confederations be ignored.  Extensions
on top of this are, as you note, optional and perhaps inevitable.

You'll pardon me if my paranoia regarding deaggregation hasn't abated in
the last 15 years.  ;-)  If you feel additional text is warranted,  
contributions are
most welcome.

Tony,

Apologies for not chiming in earlier.  Vacations and all that. :-)
My comments for the proposed feature are interspersed and cover
a number of previous e-mails.

On Tue, Jan 10, 2006 at 12:35:57PM -0800, Tony Li wrote:

I prefer the decrement behavior.

> - Completely remove the interaction with NO_EXPORT.

I would agree.

John Leslie brought up an interesting case that it woule be safe to
simply set NO_EXPORT when hopcount was 1 and we are propagating the
route.  It helps to guarantee that the next AS will not propagate
it, even if it doesn't understand the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute.

Another comment (Danny I think) spoke about where we check the
value.  If the value was checked upon egress, then we can avoid
sending the route to a downstream BGP speaker that may not understand
the attribute.

(Checking the value upon ingress in addition to egress is probably
a safe thing to do.)

Another previous comment suggests that we may not simply want to rely
on the behavior of BGP speakers that understand the feature to
decrement the value, but that we may wish to decrement it when
we think that it may not have been decremented for us.  If confederations
weren't a condition upon which the value was decremented, then it
would be possible to use the number of distinct ASes after the
advisory value to determine if the count was what we expected.

In the following example, presume that the BGP speaker doesn't
propagate the route if the decremented value would be zero.  (Change
from the spec in-line with my comments above.)

E.g.:

 A --- B --- C --- D --- E

If A sets the value to 2, we would expect B and C to receive
the route and AS-A would be in the attribute.  If C doesn't
understand the attribute, but D does, D can examine the AS_PATH C B A
and determine that the expected hop count has already been
exceeded.

Padding would need to be accounted for, so padding would need to 
be ignored when determining the number of ASes that have been
transited.

Other comments:

The 4 byte AS number in the attribute is probably a good idea.
However, we should carefully explain the behavior when the 4 byte
AS must be utilized by a 2byte speaker.

Like Danny, I would prefer that confederation boundaries be ignored
for purposes of the count.  However, this is also something I expect
that vendors may prefer to implement a knob to affect the behavior.

I think it would be good to specify behavior when aggregating routes
containing this attribute.

Your text regarding ATOMIC_AGGREGATE seems very 1771'ish.  The current
text on ATOMIC_AGGREGATE isn't quite as stringent on how this
attribute is set.

For sake of progress: I'm in favor of all these changes to the draft...

--------------
For sake of other: I'm surprised you're being asked to poll the WG
before instituting them.  Out of curiosity, how many hands are required
to move forward?  And is there some pre-determined percentage of
in-favor/not-in-favor that dictates reasonable consensus in the face of
contention?

It's just that I'd really rather not see the noise - if folks take  
issue with
these changes shouldn't they comment when said issues are being
discussed?

Hello folks,

I have a question about Cisco's implementation of BGP.

Is automatic start enabled by default in Cisco BGP?
i.e if a BGP session goes to idle, does Cisco
generate BGP start events automatically or is it only
with manual intervention.

If the default is not to automatically generate start events,
what is the command to enable it on Cisco.

Thanks,
Vikram.

Hi folks,

Based on the discussion that we've had so far, the authors of the  
AS_HOPCOUNT draft would
like to make some substantive changes to the draft.  The chairs have  
asked that we poll you to
ensure that we have rough consensus on the new direction.  The  
primary technical points of
these changes:

- Convert AS_HOPCOUNT from being decremented at each AS boundary and  
instead have it
   be a static upper bound on the AS path length.

- Rename the attribute to AS_PATHLIMIT.

- Completely remove the interaction with NO_EXPORT.

There are, of course, a number of details more fully explained in the  
revised draft, but before we
are allowed to present you with the revision, we need to have your  
approval on the above.

Could folks please comment to the list within the next two weeks as  
to whether or not this direction
is acceptable?  As this is to help gauge consensus, both positive and  
negative comments are
solicited.

Regards,
Joe & Rex & Tony

Hi Maneesh,

 

I feel Dampening should be considered irrespective of what you are doing
in aggregation.

When dampening is configured, route can take two values Dampened or
History.

Dampened route is valid to advertise.  History route is not valid to
advertise.

 

So whether the route can be considered for aggregation or not, depends
on this state - dampened or history.

 

With specific answer to your question, If the route is in Dampened state
it should contribute for Aggregation.

If it is in History state it should not contribute for Aggregation.

 

Any different opinion in the group?

 

Regards,

Anjan

Subject: [Idr] Aggregation and dampening

 

Hi All,
           I have a question on aggregation and dampening.

Consider the topology,

R1-----R3-------R4
          |
          |
R2------|


1. R1 and R2 are advertising 66.0.0.0/32 and 66.0.0.1/32 to R3
respectively.
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and
advertising to R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path
attributes are considered and if one of the routes flap , say the route
from R2, the aggregate flap to R4 will flap. 
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3. 
   
        Is it right to expect that now when the route from R2 flaps, it
should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate ? To put it more
elaboratively , say  the route from R2 flaps and reaches supress value
and is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the aggregate
or stop contributing to the aggregate ? 
        Is this implementation specific ?

Thanks
Maneesh

p.s : Sorry , if it is a very basic question in this forum.

Hi Maneesh,

 

I feel Dampening should be considered irrespective of what you are doing
in aggregation.

When dampening is configured, route can take two values Dampened or
History.

Dampened route is valid to advertise.  History route is not valid to
advertise.

 

So whether the route can be considered for aggregation or not, depends
on this state - dampened or history.

 

With specific answer to your question, If the route is in Dampened state
it should contribute for Aggregation.

If it is in History state it should not contribute for Aggregation.

 

Any different opinion in the group?

 

Regards,

Anjan

Subject: [Idr] Aggregation and dampening

 

Hi All,
           I have a question on aggregation and dampening.

Consider the topology,

R1-----R3-------R4
          |
          |
R2------|


1. R1 and R2 are advertising 66.0.0.0/32 and 66.0.0.1/32 to R3
respectively.
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and
advertising to R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path
attributes are considered and if one of the routes flap , say the route
from R2, the aggregate flap to R4 will flap. 
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3. 
   
        Is it right to expect that now when the route from R2 flaps, it
should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate ? To put it more
elaboratively , say  the route from R2 flaps and reaches supress value
and is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the aggregate
or stop contributing to the aggregate ? 
        Is this implementation specific ?

Thanks
Maneesh

Hi All,
           I have a question on aggregation and dampening.

Consider the topology,

R1-----R3-------R4
          |
          |
R2------|


1. R1 and R2 are advertising 66.0.0.0/32 and 66.0.0.1/32 to R3 respectively=
.
2. R3 is aggregating the routes (with the as-set command ) and advertising
to R4. Since it is using the as-set option, all the path attributes are
considered and if one of the routes flap , say the route from R2, the
aggregate flap to R4 will flap.
3. Now , connfigure dampening also on R3.

        Is it right to expect that now when the route from R2 flaps, it
should be damped so as to not affect the aggregate ? To put it more
elaboratively , say  the route from R2 flaps and reaches supress value and
is thereby suppressed, should it still contribute to the aggregate or stop
contributing to the aggregate ?
        Is this implementation specific ?

Thanks
Maneesh

Hello folks,

I had a question about the FSM in BGP-4.
I am not sure, but was there was a problem
in BGP 4 (RFC 177) with the FSM collision detection rules?

According to what I vaguely remember, there was particular
sequence of message passing between peers which
would result in both of them getting stuck in the

This was supposed to be addressed in the later idr drafts.

Could you please comment on this and let me know if
I am right or wrong?

Thanks.

Danny,

I would word it so that the hopcount explicitly does NOT count  
private ASs or confederation ASs.
AS sets would still count as one hop per set member.

Does that match what you're saying?

Tony

I like this idea much better as well, assuming it accounts for private
AS, AS confederation path segments, AS sets, etc..

Not only would this require some more dynamic knowledge (e.g., BGP
Capabilities functions) of what capabilities the neighbor supports, it's
something that may vary even within a single AS.

I agree - I like the idea of examining the AS path and using that  
mechanism
instead...

The NO_EXPORT/AS_HOPCOUNT interaction described in the current draft  
were based on an old (unsubmitted) draft I wrote which was conceived  
very much from the perspective of trying to conservatively restrict  
propagation of routes covering the addresses of anycast services.  
(Apologies for not speaking up sooner; my traditional New Year's  
hangover was concatenated with influenza.)

The motivations for abusing NO_EXPORT in this way were that the  
implications for a leak from an anycast node in a region with poor  
external connectivity are often serious, and in many cases not  
propagating the prefix as widely as we could is preferable to  
accidentally propagating it globally. For example, propagating the  
covering route for F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET from ISC's anycast node in  
Nairobi could be bad for many people, both inside and outside Kenya.

Export policies are frequently designed and implemented to prevent  
peer routes leaking to transit providers for obvious reasons;  
however, in practice, we find ourselves deploying infrastructure in  
regions where the concept of "export policy" is not well-known, and  
BGP configurations are apparently copied verbatim from the backs of  
cereal boxes. Not all of these regions are those that would be  
normally considered to be in the developing world. Hence, we like the  
paranoid approach of setting NO_EXPORT on 192.5.5.0/24 from our local  
nodes, since the peers most likely to leak are also the peers least  
likely to know how to remove it, or to even notice it is there. We  
soak up queries from the client population that we miss with this  
conservative propagation strategy on a smaller number of bigger, well- 
connected anycast nodes.

There has been various discussion over the past week or so about how  
the unusual interaction between NO_EXPORT and AS_HOPCOUNT specified  
in this draft could cause confusion, e.g. by those practicing proxy  
application of NO_EXPORT, which for routes which also happen to carry  
AS_HOPCOUNT might not prevent the route from being exported. Breaking  
deployed expectations of NO_EXPORT does indeed seem bad. Since the  
whole NO_EXPORT/AS_HOPCOUNT interaction is a bit of a cheap short- 
cut, designed to allow use of AS_HOPCOUNT without waiting for  
widespread adoption of the AS_HOPCOUNT mechanism, perhaps the  
collateral ugliness is not justified.

As someone else here suggested (and as Tony pointed out to me)  
changing the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute to represent an upper bound on the  
length of an AS_PATH (and discarding the NO_EXPORT interaction) might  
be a useful compromise, since a prefix leaked by a non-AS_HOPCOUNT- 
aware speaker would continue to accrue AS_PATH length through non- 
AS_HOPCOUNT-aware routers, and would be suppressed by the first  
AS_HOPCOUNT-aware speaker it came across.

The only other mechanism that occurred to me was to replace the  
current proposed NO_EXPORT interaction with a capabilities  
negotiation in the specification such that an AS_HOPCOUNT-capable  
speaker would append a NO_EXPORT community-string attribute to routes  
carrying AS_HOPCOUNT in the case where it exports routes towards a  
non-AS_HOPCOUNT-capable speaker. This would provide a more  
conservative strategy for route propagation, but it seems dirtier  
than using AS_HOPCOUNT to bound an AS_PATH length. It also doesn't  
support the alternative, more leak-tolerant semantics achieved in the  
current proposal by adding AS_HOPCOUNT without NO_EXPORT.

I think so. It was the "completed" word in your other email that 
threw me into thinking you were referring to some language in the 
draft.

Ah, in every case where I've used "complete" or "partial", I've been 
referring to the Partial bit in the attribute flags header.

We must have some miscommunication on the word "complete".  When an  
originator sets
AS_HOPCOUNT, I would assume that they would set it to some non-zero  
small integer.  It would
only be complete when it had subsequently traversed multiple ASs and  
the value had been
decremented to zero.

No objection from me.

I should point out that regardless of the way the draft describes the  
semantics, the implementation
is free to implement this as an inbound or outbound policy, as it  
sees fit.  For example, given the
current text, an implementation could pre-compute the ingress policy  
that a neighbor would implement
and filter the prefix on the outbound side, effectively making this  
an outbound policy.

Tony

   I believe that any interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT
should be limited to _setting_ NO_EXPORT. Clearing it seems to
introduce too much risk of propagating farther than intended.

   That said, I can imagine a use for setting NO_EXPORT in the case
where AS_HOPCOUNT will reach its limit after one more hop: when the
next hop is suspected of not implementing AS_HOPCOUNT.

   Of course, this only helps during the "transition" to full
implementation of AS_HOPCOUNT -- but that transition, IMHO, will
take a minimum of five years, and any predictability we can add
during the transition is (IMHO) a good thing.

I don't quite see that. Could you expand on this (apologies if you 
did already)?

It will work for fine for the combination of NO_EXPORT and 
AS_HOPCOUNT evisaged in the draft. Where the originator sets both. 
AS_HOPCOUNT will always be complete.

I think the draft is right to try modify no-export behaviour 
depending on AS_HOPCOUNT. Lets try find the best way to do so, no?

Hi, Tony:

It seems to me that removing the interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and 
NO_EXPORT would make things simpler and cleaner. So I am in favor of the 
revision.

Also as Danny pointed out,  having the AS_HOPCOUNT as an outbound policy 
(rather than an inbound policy) would make it consistent with the 
commonly understood practice of NO_EXPORT. It seems to be a good idea.

Tony,
I've got a couple of concerns with the current specification, a few
high-level points are provided here as the detailed text below is
admittedly overly verbose (in part because I was trying to wrap my
head around the various scenarios - which I'm still not sure I have).
I have read the entire thread to date and don't believe I'm duplicating
much...

In short, I'd definitely prefer that AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT
interaction be removed entirely.  I believe the corner cases where it'd
be useful are fewer than the cases where it could adversely effect
existing deployments.

I'd also think that adapting AS_HOPCOUNT behavior to be much more
akin to that of the NO_EXPORT community string may be desirable.  I.e.,
make AS_HOPCOUNT an egress policy function rather than an ingress
one - as expanded on in the text below.

Finally, I'd strongly suggest that Member-ASes of an AS confederation
NOT be treated like standard external peers, but rather, that the
AS_HOPCOUNT functions only apply to Member-ASes that are
advertising a route to eBGP peers outside of the local confederation.
My reasoning for this is that IBGP AS properties that are only visible
within an AS would now result in routes only being propagated
throughout a subset of a given AS, or an AS_HOPCOUNT being
decremented multiple times in a seemingly single A (AUTONOMOUS)
System....

Imagine a case where a multi-homed AS wanted to employ
AS_HOPCOUNT to scope traffic two ASes upstream from it's two
providers.  One of it's upstream providers employs route reflection
or a full mesh iBGP, while the other has confederations.  As
you can imagine, the confederation could result in the route
never being advertised outside of the AS, or entirely within the AS if
employing confederations, while still being propagated via the other
provider.  In short, it results in behavior that would be seemingly
non-deterministic without intimate knowledge of the the internal
BGP routing architectures of the networks in questions.

I suspect in this case implementers could provide a knob to
decrement AS_HOPCOUNT when advertising to other Member-ASes
of the same AS confederation, but it's not something I'd recommend
as normal default behavior.

I'm still a fan of AS_HOPCOUNT and believe it's a good idea, FWIW.

Further comments below...

-danny


As currently specified, (if I'm interpreting correctly) an eBGP speaker
upon receipt of NLRI that contains both the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
and NO_EXPORT community:

- if it doesn't understand the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute processing will
continue as usual per it's an optional transitive attribute and  
NO_EXPORT
will likely result in the NLRI NOT being propagated outside the local  
AS.
(note that this required that the eBGP peer transmit both the NO_EXPORT
community AND the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute)

- if it does understand AS_HOPCOUNT it will ignore the NO_EXPORT
(actually, behave as if it doesn't exist?) community and propagate the
route ---> IF the AS_HOPCOUNT value is non-zero.

- NO_EXPORT remains only applicable between adjacent ASes (by it's
very nature)?  I don't see anywhere here that it states NO_EXPORT should
be carried indefinitely if the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute is present?

With that, I'm honestly not sure I understand here where value is gained
by coupling the NO_EXPORT community with the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute, can you further expand for me?

On that point

In section 3.3 the draft states:

" Further control can be achieved by considering the implications of
using both AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT simultaneously.  Since
NO_EXPORT is widely deployed, understood by almost all implementations,
and since AS_HOPCOUNT is not deployed, we can make use of the overlap
in their semantics to provide a powerful transition mechanism."

This introduces a bit of confusion.  With the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
a route would be dropped as an ingress policy function (i.e., when
receiving a route from an eBGP peer with an AS_HOPCOUNT value
of 0).  Whereas, NO_EXPORT is applied as an egress policy function
(i.e., don't announce a route to an eBGP peer if the NO_EXPORT
community string is present), the latter of which has the advantage
of allowing me to tell an adjacent AS something and being quite
confident that it will not be propagated beyond their AS.  I.e., it
seems non-intuitive to tell someone something if I know they're
going to ignore it.  However, if I know they're going to use it but
not tell anyone else (e.g., as with NO_EXPORT), that makes sense.

So what this would mean is that if I wanted to employ this in a
similar manner to NO_EXPORT with an adjacent peer that
supported the new attribute, I'd set the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute to
1, it'd be decremented on ingress to the adjacent AS AND advertised
to ASes further upstream - *where it previously was not*, and on
ingress to those ASes IF they support the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
they'll discard the route (a route that would have never been advertised
had the AS_HOPCOUNT behavior not been introduced per the
NO_EXPORT community that existed on ingress to the second AS in
the path).  If they do not support the attribute the route will be
propagated indefinitely.

Perhaps we'd be better off here if we changed the rules a bit
such that NLRI with an AS_HOPCOUNT value of 1 (or 0) MUST
NOT be advertised to eBGP peers, then the semantics overlap much
more cleanly with that of the NO_EXPORT community string.  I'm
trying to think of a case where this might break if BGP speakers
don't support it but nothing comes to mind at the moment....?

Along the same lines, the issue that most of this thread has been
pertaining to regarding ignoring NO_EXPORT if the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute is present, that concerns me.  Primarily because if a
downstream AS attaches the NO_EXPORT community to a route
but has no knowledge of the existing AS_HOPCOUNT attribute,
then the NO_EXPORT community will be ignored.

According to the text here in section 5.1:

"If a BGP speaker receives a route with both the AS_HOPCOUNT
attribute and the NO_EXPORT community string attribute, then the
normal semantics of NO_EXPORT do not apply and the route should
be processed as if NO_EXPORT was not present."

This has several implications.  The first is that my reading of this
leads me to believe that the NO_EXPORT community string should be
removed from the route.  So, if a transit AS added the NO_EXPORT
community fully intending for the adjacent to propagate the route
entirely throughout the local AS, but didn't recognize the AS_HOPCOUNT
value then policy just changed without their knowledge and the route
MAY be dropped on ingress to the AS, rather than egress (or in some
external AS), depending on the value of the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute.

I'd really prefer that the interactions between AS_HOPCOUNT and
NO_EXPORT be removed altogether as I suspect that this will likely
result in inadvertent propagation of prefixes that were previously
scoped by NO_EXPORT (e.g., as was mentioned in the case where
a transit AS doesn't support AS_HOPCOUNT but attached
NO_EXPORT for whatever reason).   Or, for example, all the routes that
MAY be leaked while I'm upgrading my egress routers to support
AS_HOPCOUNT while the ingress routers have stripped the
NO_EXPORT community.

Understood, and this is certainly a bad side effect of AS_HOPCOUNT  
and Y:n interaction.

Yes, but as I pointed out, making the NO_EXPORT override be  
conditional on AS_HOPCOUNT being
complete breaks the NO_EXPORT override for everyone who is NOT  
depending on Y:n semantics.
This begs the question: how many folks are reliant on Y:n semantics?   
Or should we simply remove
the interaction between AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm arguing for.

As above, sorry.

See the examples I gave previously wrt interaction of AS_HOPCOUNT and 
<peer>:<action> communities:

 	X-Y-Z

Z sends prefix with both AS_HOPCOUNT (count >= 2), and also community 
Y:n (where AS Y will attach no-export community for any prefix which 
has Y:n community attached). Y does not support AS_HOPCOUNT. X 
receives the advertisement and ignores no-export, as the draft 
currently stands.

The prefix might now have have global scope, particularly in early 
days of AS_HOPCOUNT deployment (where it may never transit through 
sufficient other AS_HOPCOUNT capable speakers to be stopped). The 
prefix has /wider/ scope because of the combination of AS_HOPCOUNT 
and <peer>:<action> communities, wider than it could ever have with 
either method (presuming everyone supported AS_HOPCOUNT). It'd be a 
surprising effect of AS_HOPCOUNT possibly.

See also the example I gave where Y has some AS_HOPCOUNT capable 
speakers, and some not.

Making the NO_EXPORT override be conditional on AS_HOPCOUNT being a 
complete attribute would solve this case, while not restricting scope 
of AS_HOPCOUNTed prefixes unneccesarily, I think. (that was your 
objection to my earlier 'partial -> set to 0' proposal).

   When I first raised this issue, I was thinking of a particular case
(in addition to the general case):

- BGP-speaker at the edge advertises with AS_HOPCOUNT (without NO_EXPORT);
- ISP-A doesn't know AS_HOPCOUNT, adds NO_EXPORT for whatever reason;
- ISP-B recognizes AS_HOPCOUNT, and ignores NO_EXPORT.

   This particular case feels wrong to me.

That was my interpretation of what YOU were suggesting when you said  
that "AS_HOPCOUNT
should override NO_EXPORT *only* if it is complete".  Is that incorrect?

Perhaps we might make more progress if you could expand on your  
proposed semantics a bit.

> instead,


If AS_HOPCOUNT is partial, the it implies that it transited an AS  
that did not support AS_HOPCOUNT.
But any such AS should have obeyed NO_EXPORT and thus should never  
have propagated the
path in the first place.

Odd, the draft doesn't seem to say this.

In 3.3:

"   Systems that receive NLRI with both an AS_HOPCOUNT and NO_EXPORT and
    which do implement AS_HOPCOUNT will ignore the NO_EXPORT community
    and propagate the NLRI."

In 5.1:

"   If a BGP speaker receives a route with both the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute
    and the NO_EXPORT community string attribute, then the normal
    semantics of NO_EXPORT do not apply and the route should be processed
    as if NO_EXPORT was not present."

Maybe I'm being dense too ;) but that reads to me like AS_HOPCOUNT 
/always/ overrides NO_EXPORT, which is not good imho (see my X-Y-Z 
action-community + AS_HOPCOUNT example in previous email). I'm saying 
AS_HOPCOUNT should override NO_EXPORT *only* if it is complete.

If it's partial, then NO_EXPORT, IFF present, should be honoured 
instead, because there's no way to know how many hops were "missed" 
in the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute, NO_EXPORT is the only complete 
"scope-reducer" in such case and should hence be obeyed.

Failure could to do so could result in the prefix reaching /further/ 
than intended by anyone, possibly even result in global scope, where 
this was never intended for that prefix.

Ok, I don't understand what you're suggesting.  Here's what I think  
you're saying.

If a prefix has both NO_EXPORT and AS_HOPCOUNT and it's received by  
an AS,
then there are three cases:

1) The AS doesn't support AS_HOPCOUNT and it obeys NO_EXPORT,  
limiting the prefix
to the local domain.

2) The AS does support AS_HOPCOUNT.

a) If the hopcount hasn't completed, then the AS would obey NO_EXPORT.

b) If the hopcount has completed, then the AS would drop the route.

I don't see how the path can ever exit the AS.  I'm guessing that I'm  
being dense, but
I'm not seeing how...

Sure. But if they're restricting scope of a route, they want its 
scope restricted. The covering global scope prefix will be there 
anyway. But who knows, indeed :).

A more focused answer might be to make just the 'ignore no-export' 
part of the draft conditional on the AS_HOPCOUNT attribute being 
complete. Would that be acceptable? That'd solve the no-export 
concerns while still erring on the liberal-scope side.

Well, I'm always horrible at estimating probabilities of group behavior.

My hope is that restricting the scope of global prefixes becomes the  
predominant
use of the attribute.  Specifically, longer prefixes that are being  
injected for traffic
engineering.  I'm guessing that the predominant use would be proxy  
application
by Tier 1 or 2 providers.

My $.02,
Tony

Agreed.

See the example I gave (Andrew's originally?), the combination of 
AS_HOPCOUNT with peer:action could give the route /wider/ scope than 
either of the two methods on their own, which seems unintuitive.

A fair point.

How likely is it that people are going to experiment with 
announcements that are currently global scope? Surely such 
experiments will be carried out on announcements currently with 
restricted scope (by no-export or by <peer>:<action> communities)?

Yeah...

Though, as it stands it seems to interact poorly with one of the few 
existing restrict-scope traffic-engineering method during transition. 
Is that interaction more important than difference between "X 
hopcount means reaches at least X hops" and "X hopcount means reaches 
/up to/ X hops"? (particularly given the former can never be 
guaranteed anyway). I don't know.

Anyway..
