So, I watched for a while Alex and now Acee trying to influence the
direction of this thing (after a last call funny enough) and I definitely
do _NOT_ like the direction this is going.  I have an understanding for
'exact specification' and 'understanding what the tags are doing' and
'we don't want 64 and 32 bits in place' __BUT__

1) Slashing the whole thing to things like 1 tag  only and squeezing it
    in size may feel good in terms of specification but it will probably
make
    it as flexible and useful as the OSPF tag, namely completely useless.
    Just look at the unnatural contortions of RFC 1994.
2) I am lacking to follow the arguments here why multiple tags are so
harmfull,
    why we have to know _exactly_ what every tag means and why the
    32 and 64 bit tags together are such a big issue. The only ones
    I saw were basically 'it may blackhole routes or lead to problems
    when misconfiguration or implementaion errors occur'. Well, guess
    what, that's true for almost any RFC that ends up implenented in
    a screwy way. ISIS is a small implementor's community and we do
    not have to build specs in a way that every kid hacking Linux can
    implement it perfectly without having written a protocol in their life
    before.

Therefore, I would encourage the implementors to think whether they want
to end up in an OSPF-like tag corset or they want to preserve the
flexibility of having multiple tags that can be used in a global or
local fashion
(global shall necessitate a description for interop-purposes, probaby
2547 extcomm being carried around would be such a thing) or otheriwse
for all kind of nice local/proprietary things. BGP extscomms are already
used in such way couple of nice & smart ways (I won't go into d3etails
to protect the usually suspect vendors ;-) Some of those mechanisms
could be used for ISIS to e.g. accelerate convergence on routers
supporting these extensions.  So, if implementors feel strongly here,
please push back on all that 'we'll make it soo much nicer' tweaking and
let's try to get this draft out in some decent time rather than the usual
3-infinity years it takes an ISIS RFC to be issued.

I would strongly encourage keeping multiple, ordered tags and the draft
not touching on their application. I would also encourage a 32 and a
64 bit tag, both being independent address spaces. It's not ideal but
what's the point redoing stuff in the field just so the encoding is tad
nicer? I would encourage a draft on how the 2547 stuff is being sloshed
around using tags. And I think we added a paragraph that when the
route selection supresses a route based on a tag we may end up with
 a blackhole.
  
    thanks

So if we step back, what we have here is a pair of generic TLVs (32
and 64 bits tags) which can be used to send an arbitrary amount of
opaque information. Will the tag encodings and their respective
applications be described in future drafts?

yes, you could send in 64 bit tags Finnegan's Wake up to couple hundred
bytes per prefix if you really want to but then, I assume to fix this
problem in OSPF
you will decleare RFC2370 unlawfull really soon?
If the 'hidden communication channel' is the problem you
try to solve, security groups will yield a much more fruitfull harvest.

That would be very, very desirable but given e.g. EXTCOMMs realities,
may only partially come to fruition. I would expect that stuff that has to
interoperate would be documented, stuff that does not (e.g. an extension
that improves protocol behavior if the other receipient understands it,
otherwise yields nothing) not necessarily. Again, RFC2370 comes to mind.


    thanks

Actually, to the best of my knowledge, most of the opaque LSA applications
are documented in RFCs and/or drafts (although I know there are undocumented
TLVs sent within TE LSAs).

A thought:

What would happen if we did something similar to BGP communities?

To wit:

- multiple tags
- unordered
- 32 bits only
- global and local scoping

That's exactly what I'm calling for as well (except if we do just one,
64 for me)
and I thought we had more or less nailed with the draft so far.
The global vs. local scoping (I asume you mean transitive or not in BGP
speech)
I don't  deem that important since it's an IGP so across-domain doesn't mean
much to me in this context ...
   
    thanks

I'm not seeing a big win with 64 bits, but can be convinced.

By local & global scoping, I was suggesting that we divide the
range to cover both globally well-known values and also have
locally defined/vendor defined values.

If the option is 32 or 64,  I'd prefer 64, else I suspect we'll see
something akin to "IS-IS extended-tags" draft in the near future [Hrmm.,
perhaps 32 bits is a good idea].

What would the initial set of well-known values look like?

Dunno and don't particularly care.  Just trying to ensure that there
is space allocated so that there can be some standardized tags.  As 
we move to more L1/L2 deployments, I can forsee many uses (e.g.,
internal vs external).

I was the one who wrote the paraphrase of three-way
handshaking that appears in G.7712, and what a royal
pain in the **** it was too.  At the time the IETF doc
was an Internet Draft.  Later when it got an RFC
number we were able to put "For more information see
RFC xxx" in, but the paraphrase had to remain.

As Jonathan said, it would have been much easier if we
could have just pointed at the RFC number and said do
it that way.

After all the ITU can always put "do it such as RFC
xyz but with the following exception/addition" if it
wants to.  Putting it as a standards track takes
nothing away from the ITU, but it does make things
easier.

I probably shouldn't be opening an old wound, but I
just can't help it...

I still say that there is absolutely no point in
forming an adjacency between an IPv4-only router and
an IPv6-only router.  If you do then you cannot
forward any traffic over it, so what is the point ?

I also think that the MT draft is wrong in this
respect.  The fact that a sub-topology exists does not
reduce the validity of what I have said.  Personally I
think that the MT draft is over prescriptive on this
and consequently makes itself incompatible with
autoencap, when it isn't necessary to do so.

For autoencap to ever be useful, it would be much,
much simpler if the IPv6-only routers would just
refuse to connect to the IPv4-only routers.  Then
autoencap would be useable in a more or less idiot
proof fashion. Okay dual routers still would be able
to make black holes, but at least the single protocol
ones wouldn't.  It would be as good as I can get it,
though not perfect.

As it wouldn't do any harm, why not do it ?

What I am proposing is that if an IPv6 capable router
can detect no network layer protocols in common with a
neighbour then it should not form an adjacency with
it.  If it can detect one or more in common then it
should, on the basis that the adjacency is useful at
least for that network layer protocol.

Please could it go in the IPv6 RFC ?

By the way ITU-T G.7712 already calls for such a
clause.  By adding it to the RFC then the two would be
aligned, making it easier for folks to sell routers to
the telecom companies building SONET/SDH DCN networks.

Philip

Beating an old drum ...

Failing to form adjacencies can cause the DR election to produce
different results for different routers, leading to an inoperative
network.  Therefore it's not a question of something that causes
no harm.

I used to believe that adjacencies should always be formed,
but it turns out the subject is more complicated that I'd thought,
and I can't say which is best.  I just wanted to point out that
refusing to form adjacencies can cause a severe problem.  True,
the problem can be fixed by careful tuning of DR priority -- but
can you write down the rules so that a competent network admin
can do it?

I'll admit that (at least, without MT) the problems caused by
creating an adjacency when there is no connectivity (e.g., when
there is no common subnet address) leads to bigger problems than
the DR election.  Nonetheless, I haven't ever seen anyone who
advocates refusing the adjacencies tackle this problem.  In the
case of no common subnet, the solution is simple: fix the addressing.
In the case of multiprotocol, the situation is more complex.

Regards,
Jeff

I though that I made a reasonable go at it in section
5.1 of draft-ietf-isis-auto-encap-03.txt

If you have a bunch of IPv6-only nodes on a LAN, all
ignoring the IPv4-only ones, then they will elect a
DIS from amongst themselves, because IOS 10589 states
that you elect only from up adjacencies.

The IPv4-only nodes will do the same as having been
ignored by the IPv6-only ones they don't have an up
adjacency with them.

You end up with two pseudonodes, one that describes
all of the IPv4-only nodes on the LAN, and the other
that describes all of the IPv6-only nodes on the LAN,
which is actually an accurate picture of the network.

I tried this in the lab and it does work very well.

I will admit that if you put a dual node on the LAN
then things start to go wierd, I have always admitted
that.

Just because problems A and B cannot both be solved is
not a reason to not solve problem A when you get a
chance.  The IPv6 RFC is such a chance.

I think that we should properly crunch some scenarios
rather than just dismissing the whole thing as a
"problem".  It isn't so complicated.  These decisions
have a way of haunting us for years, and it is worth a
few e-mails to get all of the issues out in the open.

the root cause of the "common subnet rule" is that next-hop

i.e. if there is no common subnet then the ARP fails and
subsequently no next-hop information can be generated due
to the missing MAC addresses; 

common "protocol neutral IS-IS" sense would dictate to resolve
the next-hops via extracting SNPAs from IIHs; - however most kernels 
rely on a per AF L2 address resolution protocol read: ARP,
and most routing code does not feedback L2 information back to the kernel;


i fail to see why the MT draft is broken from a forwarding perspective ?

Hannes, what you say is correct, but Philip's point concerned
IPV4 vs IPV6, not common subnet addressing (a very closely related
issue).

If A supports only IPV4 and B supports only IPV6, then there's no
way one can forward traffic to the other.  So the question is, why
should they form an adjacency?  My answer is: so that either of them
can be elected DR and generate pseudonode LSPs.  However, this is
a fairly complex subject and I'm not at all certain that my proposition
is the best solution.  Rather, it's food for thought.

Jeff

Right -- unless you have a multiprotocol node on the LAN, you don't
have problems.  But I haven't seen any text on how to deal
with the problems caused by multiprotocol nodes.  Way back when I
posted several problematic scenarios, to deaf ears.

So, to summarize (please correct me if I have it wrong):

  Because they require forming adjacencies between nodes that
  have no data protocols in common, MT and IPV6 draft are both
  non-interoperable with auto-encap.

  Forming adjacencies with all neighbors, as required by 10589,
  avoids DR election problems.

  Auto-encap requires rejecting adjacencies with neighbors they
  have no data protocols in common with.

  MT and IPV6 have no provisions for automatically plugging holes
  between protocol "islands" even though it may be possible to
  connect the islands using tunneling.  Any such tunneling must
  be manually configured.

Regards,
Jeff

i am not sure ....
when we are we talking about "supporting" IPv4 or IPv6 are we talking
about "node" properties or "link" properties ?

still i wonder about the unnumbered case ... i.e. can there be
situations where from a link perspective there are no protocols
in common, however from a node perspctive there is;

my confusion/curiosity is mainly derived from the unclear semantics
of TLV 129 and or presence/absence of 132/232;

yepp, as far I remember the problem was that you have to form adjacencies
on Ether to everyone (if you're DR) since otherwise you'll end up with a
partionened
ether and old-style devices not understanding what possibly went wrong

hmm, how so ? Been a while I read the auto-encap draft. Care for a short

so we're on same page.

yes, as far my mind carries, we couldn't find asolution once you had nodes
in multiple topologies (incl. #0) and nodes not understanding MT on the
same
LAN. And this is a real deployment scenario that will need support. It
won't help
to make our lives easier if we introduce restrictions (you can't run
dual-mode on
same ether) that are infeasible in the real world.

My understanding is that in auto-encap, neighbors that don't have a data
protocol in common must refuse to form adjacencies, whereas in MT and IPV6,
they must form them regardless.  But I'm not really "up" on any of these
documents, so I'd like the experts to correct me if I'm wrong!

Jeff

Dear all:
            The below are several emails of the discussion of one doubt about the draft "IS-IS as PE/CE routing protocol in BGP/MPLS/VPN".
            We wonder if the flooding of LSP accross the Sham link is necessary. According to my opinion, the flooding is not necessary, because sham link is just used to make sure  the right next-hop of the VPN-IP route of CE. As per stefano 's view, the flooding is required. But we all agree that it is difficult to flooding the LSP for IS-IS accrossthe sham link because IS-IS is not encapsulated in IP packets as OSPF. 

            Anyone are interested in this topic and can give some good suggestion ? 

            thanks in advance! 

Sheng

MT has a clause in it that you always form an
adjacency on a LAN whatever.  It says so in section
5.2

"Two Routers on a LAN SHALL always establish adjacency
regardless whether they have common MT set or not.
This is to ensure all the routers on the LAN can
correctly elect the same DIS. "

However this does not make MT incompatible with
autoencap.  However I believe that the MT draft
doesn't really have the right to make that statement
anyway.  It is nothing to do with MT, it's rather a
general IS-IS issue, and it isn't necessary to make MT
work, which is why I said that it is overprescriptive.

Having a correctly elected DIS is a general IS-IS
issue, not particularly an MT issue.  I don't see why
the MT draft has to address it.

Other than that issue MT is perfectly compatible with
autoencap, especially if any LANs used are kept simple
(like don't use an MT node, a dual node and a
uniprotocol node on the same LAN).  A simple MT to
autoencap link (LAN or otherwise) will work fine.

Also to say that the IPv6 draft is not compatible with
autoencap is flat out wrong.

Autoencap does rely on an IPv6-only and an IPv4-only
node not having an adjacency.  This can be acheived by

a: A rule such as the that I am proposing, as per
G.7712.

b: Just don't put an IPv4-only and IPv6-only node on
the same LAN.

or

c: Manually disable any such adjacency.  As long as
there are no non-autoencap dual nodes on the LAN then
you won't get into problems with DIS.

Use any of these three and autoencap will interwork
with IS-IS routed IPv6 perfectly, even as the draft
stands.

Also manual tunnels don't work that well either.  You
can't tell IS-IS to use the tunnel for IPv6 but not
for IPv4.  You end up sending all traffic down the
tunnel whether it could go natively or not.  You end
up with (IPv4+IPv6+ISIS)/GRE/IPv4 for example.

I think that this is the specific scenario that
becomes broken if IPv4 and IPv6 nodes don't have an
adjacency.

The number above the node is the priority.

  3       1        2
+----+  +----+  +-----+
| v4 |  | v6 |  | 4/6 |
+--+-+  +--+-+  +-+---+
   |       |      |
  -+-------+------+-
         LAN

In this case the v6 node sees the higher priority of
the 4/6 node and so doesn't make a pseudonode.

The 4/6 node sees the v4 node and so doesn't make a
pseudonode.

The v4 node sees only the 4/6 node and so makes a
pseudonode, but only includes the 4/6 node as
connected to the pseudonode.

Thus, another IS viewing the LAN from afar will think
that the v6 node is not connected and so will not plot
a route through it, as it isn't included in the
pseudonode LSP.

Without autoencap you could use this topology, but
only very carefully.

You would have to make sure that no IPv6 destinations
lie beyond the v4 node, and that no IPv4 destinations
lie beyond the v6 node.  In this way you can guarantee
that SPF will never send an IPv4 packet through the v6
node and vice versa, as all v4 destinations are
through the 4/6 node.

On this particular point, an adjacency rule such as
G.7712s does stop a usable route being formed where
otherwise it would be formed.  The topology is however
illegal under RFC 1195 and one would be ill advised to
use it.  Many vendors won't implementations won't work
in this scenario anyway.

If you set the dual node higher than the others then
it works because you get a single pseudonode declaring
adjacencies to all others.

If you set the dual node lower than the others then it
works because you get two pseudonodes both declaring
an adjacency to the dual.

It only breaks if the dual node is higher than all v4
nodes, but lower than a v6 node, or the other way
around.

OK, I thought the auto-encap doc specifically said to NOT
form adjacencies when you have no data protocols in common,
in which case it would contradict MT.  In general, if one
protocol says you MUST do A, and another says you MUST NOT
do A, they're incompatible and non-interoperable.  In this
case, though, it's not that cut-and-dried, as you pointed out.

More below.

If it's necessary anyway, then why not say it?  10589 isn't the
best source because it's not multiprotocol.  I don't remember
whether RFC 1195 is explicit or not, nonetheless the question
used to come up all the time.  In MT, the deployment requirements
of 1195 are relaxed, and this might or might not mean a change in
this kind of policy.  MT gives the requirement and the reason
for it.

Once again, I thought that IPv6 requires forming 
adjacencies that auto-encap requires to be refused.

So it appears that auto-encap can be used with MT and
IPv6, as long as certain deployment rules are followed.
Are these rules documented?  Probably not, since auto-encap
preceded the others.  It would be worthwhile to document
them officially.

Before MT, manual tunnels don't work at all.  I would have
thought that manual tunnels plus MT would work just fine,
because you CAN tell IS-IS to use the tunnel (link) just for
specific protocols.  I'll have to reread MT -- like I said,
I'm not an expert on that; I'm just going on my recollection.
Sorry if I've muddied the water.

This is one bad case.  It gets a little more complicated when
there are 3 or more protocols involved, and the solutions aren't
quite as simple.  There might be another bad case for 2 protocols,
but I'll have to think about it.

The topology is illegal for 1195, but is it illegal for MT?

Jeff

Tony, Acee, et al.

I think I should clarify some points here, specifically what I am
and am not concerned with and why.

What I do NOT have a problem with (non-issues):

NI-1. The opaque nature of a route tag as an integer attached
      to a route

NI-2. Presence of a 32-bit and a 64-bit tag simultaneously if
      there is a real reason for this.

NI-3. Even more than one tag, as long as they are used as _tags_,
      though I can't see how more than 2 or 3 tags would be
      useful.

However, what concerns me is (issues with discussions, please
feel free to comment):

I-1. Tag TLVs introduced as any-size opaque transport containers,
     such inflatable "goodie-bags" with practically no internal
     structure (except for n x 32, or n x 64) where one can find
     tags, but also "all kind of nice proprietary things".

     Is there a risk that these TLVs will be used to carry "stuff"
     around? Reviewing the thread, seems that Acee, Tony P. and I
     agree that this is possible:

        "...yes, you could send in 64 bit tags Finnegan's Wake up to
        couple hundred bytes per prefix if you really want to..."

     What's the risk that this will happen? What is the risk that more
     than one vendor will do that? Is this dangerous? Are we going to
     see collisions among vendors in the field? Plus all arguments we
     have seen against vendor-specific extensions during the
     discussion on experimental TLVs are applicable (issues with
     interop, security, changes in proto dynamics, lack of community
     review, etc.)

     It seems that the WG needs to consider these arguments.

I-2. The problem of distributing 2547-related attributes addressed
     by introduction of the n x 64-bit opaque TLV, called 'tag'.
     Why are we overloading the notion of tag from the very beginning?
     Why not have a separate TLV and a proper spec for this?

     This goes hand in hand with the question of why we need another
     tag. If we assume that the right answer to transportation of the
     2547 attributes is a separate TLV with a proper specification of
     what is put there and how to act on it, then we need to answer
     the question "do we need the second tag?" If we read the draft as
     it stands, with the main application being route "color" and
     control over prefix distribution, the second tag does not seem
     necessary.

     Also, the size of the tag (8 octets) raises the risk of "stuff"
     being put into it, though it is admittedly much lower than the
     risk introduced by I-1
     
To comment on some points Tony P. brought up (those not implicitly
addressed above):

1. Why we should know what every tag means?

   I don't believe we should (see NI-1).

   On the other hand, if the document intends to say that one of
   the applications of the tag is to control route distribution,
   it should request that compliant implementations support
   tag-based prefix filtering. Otherwise compliance to the spec
   will not mean anything to the SP who want to actually control
   prefix distribution.
   
2. What about OSPF Opaque LSAs and BGP Extended Communities?

   It seems to me that the difference between them and the current tag
   proposal is in the level at which opaqueness is introduced and
   presence of the internal structure.

   More specifically, before Opaque LSAs were introduced, each new LSA
   type required modification of OSPF SW. Opaque LSAs abstract
   transport details of LSA flooding from the description of LSA
   payload. This helps to avoid having to modify the SW every time a
   new LSA is introduced. (However, each Opaque LSA type needs to be
   registered by IANA through the OSPF WG, which outlaws just grabbing
   an LSA to distribute proprietary stuff.) ISIS already has this
   level of opaqueness through the notion of TLVs.

   Regular BGP communities (RFC1997) are constructed as a set of one
   or more 32-bit values, which seems very close to the description of
   the 32-bit tag TLV in the draft. The difference is in the fact that
   some internal structure is provided at least for admin assignment,
   and that some values are reserved and defined as well-known, with
   well-defined behavior, which enforces their use as tags.

   Extended communities are also different, since each ext community
   is encoded as Type/Value couple, with internal structure specific
   to a type, sub-types allocated by IANA, and fixed-length values.

I hope this clarifies my concerns and will help the discussion.

Thanks.
Alex

Hannes,

  Are the tag and tag2 both 32-bit tags taken from the same TLV or do
  you have the 64-bit tags coded/deployed also?

yes, this(MT requires to form adj with neighbors) is only meaningful
with point-to-multipoint interfaces. over p2p, we are saying no need
to setup adj if not matching.

but on a LAN, we need to have a DR. we can have some choices:

 - don't allow any protocol family to mix, any topology to mix

 - to have a seperate DR for each level/address-family/topology

 - to share the same DR within the level, always setup adjacency
   with everyone on the LAN to elect a stable DR, but label the
   adjacency useable or unusable base on the address-family and/or
   topology sets. announce or don't announce the adjacency in LSP
   accordingly. as long as a system performs backlink checks in
   spf computation, this scheme should work just fine.

in MT draft/implementation, we thought the first solution is not
acceptable, the second one is too messy, the last one works and
rather easy to do. we realized that this is not a MT only property,
but MT is the first one to advocate this within ISIS, and i don't
see anything wrong with that.

thanks.

locally defined would be reasonable.

how do you see vendor-defined ones being used? (remembering
the discussion on vendor-specific tlvs...)

would there be some structure inside the tag?

Let me respond to all of Alex's comments at once...

How do I see vendor defined tags being used?  I see them being used
for experimental purposes, for shipping some new functionality before
the implementation is wholly stable.  As with any experimental object,
I would hope that it would eventually be documented and become 
standardized.  Just so we don't have to play proprietary IGP games yet
again.


|    I-1. Tag TLVs introduced as any-size opaque transport containers,
|         such inflatable "goodie-bags" with practically no internal
|         structure (except for n x 32, or n x 64) where one can find
|         tags, but also "all kind of nice proprietary things".


I submit to you that almost any experimental TLV can be used for this
purpose, or any obsolete TLV value, or any hijacked TLV could be used
fairly safely.  So I don't believe that even if you eliminated this
proposal, you would deter anyone from including Finnegan's Wake in the
slightest.  

The issue that I have with using this (or any TLV) for such fun is that
it's basically dishonest and unnecessarily so.  If folks feel the
need to carry A Tale of Two Cities in their IGP, well, I'm not going
to stop them, but please, let's allocate some intelligent and opaque
TLV so that we all realize that this is someone's private sandbox.

That said, that doesn't seem like an issue that should deter this
proposal.


|    I-2. The problem of distributing 2547-related attributes addressed
|         by introduction of the n x 64-bit opaque TLV, called 'tag'.
|         Why are we overloading the notion of tag from the 
|    very beginning?
|         Why not have a separate TLV and a proper spec for this?


Or, why not just explicitly allocate global tag values for 2547
attributes?
I have no issue with this (above and beyond my general distaste for
2547).

Tony

oops, even you, Brutus ;-)

Can  we agree here on e.g.:

    1) let's the 32+64 go, not worth the energy for little damage done.
Decouple the
        two and that's it. Yes, it's tad of more implementation code but
it's better
        than waste 2 years chewing on it. And by then, it's deployed
anyway so you
        end up documenting it no matter what we came up with as 'better'
solution.
    2) introduce 2-3 bits in front of tag to structure it (albeit we
have deployments,
        I think Cisco/JNPR would swallow that one). But, then, how would
we fit
        EXTCOMMs that are 64bits into 64bits ?
    3) Put a section in describing that in misconfiguration and using
the tag for supressing
        prefixes in SPF, blackholes may result.
    3) Put a section in that any tag that's supposed to be understood
globally and influence
        SPF must be brought to the group

thanks

not again. There are plenty of things in OSPF/ISIS I can misuse as
'hidden communicaiton
channel'. And we agreed that even if SPF is influenced by this tag, you
can only blackhole.
Yes, the possibilites to kill oneself
deserves a mention in the draft but otherwise it's just a
pseudo-exercise in
'home-protocol-security'. You 're not protecting anyone from anything by
restricting
everyting to a single 32 bits tag.

Yes, we can have another draft, taking another sub-TLV point
specifically 2547.
What's the difference of that beside having some additional encoding
rules that makes no
difference in deployment behavior ? Actually, the more I think about it,
the more
I come to the conclusion that we should just pick up the EXTCOMM structure
for those 64-bit tags and reserve the same LOW types for the same purposes.

what 'risks' of what 'stuff' and what 'lower risk' ?
I hope you don't start to argue in such vague terms without any
hard data to back it up. Otherwise I fear the next draft we discuss
will bear the danger
of weapons of mass desctruction. Sorry for the sarcasm but this is
really not
going anywhere fast.

agreed, however if everybody wants everybody interoperating on a

not again, you can't force people to implement node-specific things.
Maybe they have
high-end nodes that allow policies and low-end that don't. Stop trying
to mandate the
internals of implementations.

Actually there is a simple solution.

A DIS election per protocol.

This is what we did for the autoencap and it works
really well.

I thought that maybe it would be too radical for the
IPv6 RFC, but given that it works, maybe I should be
pushing for it.

Basically it is no change for single protocol routers
(except that they reject an adjacency with a neighbour
that doesn't support their protocol).

However a dual router has a DIS election process per
protocol.

It makes a pseudonode if it is the highest priority
either for IPv4 capable routers, or if it is the
highest priority for IPv6 capable routers.

Sometimes you get two DISs on the LAN, but that
doesn't cause any problems.  It does guarantee that
everyone gets advertised by the LSPs either from one
DIS or the other.

It also works for three or more protocols.

Maybe this would be better for the MT folks as well.

Sharing my ignorance again, I'm not sure I understand this.

Assume that we have three routers: 

	A	IPv4 & IP v6
	B	IPv4
	C	IPv6

Assume A winds up being DIS.
B forms adjacency with only A.  Advertises link to PNode
A forms adjacency with B and C.  A's PNode shows link to A, B, C.  
C forms adjacency with only A.  Advertises link to PNode

Running the SPF, it isn't enough to look at links: they
should all be there.  Don't I need to check the protocol
supported bits in the LSPs as well?

Autoencap only works because SPF doesn't consider
protocol supported.  Some people don't agree with
this, but hey, I didn't write RFC 1195.  I just took
advantage of that clause.

The example you cite works because the dual node is
the highest priority.  If the dual node is the lowest
priority it also works.  If it is between the two then
things mess up.

Right, Jeff -- as long as everyone agrees who the DIS is, no
problem.

What if A and B elect B, but C elects A?  B gets left out of
the pseudonode.

For MT, I believe all nodes are required to check protocols
supported.  This is in contrast with Autoencap and 1195.
For 1195, there was no need to check protocols supported,
instead deployment rules were used to avoid routes that
wouldn't work.  For Autoencap, it's necessary for all nodes
to follow the 1195 rules and let nodes at the boundaries of
actual connectivity do the encapsulation.

Philip, isn't this another conflict between MT and Autoencap?

I may be missing something, but if you have *any* v6 nodes only
reachable via the v4 node, then they are cut off, because the v4 node
cannot forward v6 packets to them.  That's why it's a v4 node, right? 
Nothing you do in terms of DIS election will fix the fact that they are
not reachable. However, if you fix the DIS election, then they will
*look* reachable to the rest of the domain, resulting in black holed
packets, rather than in unreachable destinations.  Mixing address
families in the domain is extremely problematic unless you have a base
that everyone speaks.

where does it say that ?

MT is required to have multiple SPFs, each that limits
itself to an MT.  Nothing to do with protocols
supported TLV.

MT and autoencap together is actually really powerful.
 You can upgrade only a few nodes to route IPv6, which
would normally be contrary to RFC 1195, but then you
can assign an MT to those nodes and thus run a
separate SPF for IPv6.  Then you can use autoencap to
get rid of the IPv4 at a later time when you want to
put IPv6 only routers in.

Right.  So, either (a) don't do that, or (b) use Auto-encap.

This is a much more general statement that your example supports.

It's true that it's problematic, but mostly because 1195 chose not
to go there.  It could have been solved very simply with different
deployment rules and a requirement to check protocols-supported and
run multiple SPFs.  But 1195 didn't, and so any attempt to deal with
topologies that violate 1195 deployment rules will require new standards
and will involve backwards compatibility issues, and will be problematic
as you say.

However, I believe that the requirement that all routers support a
common data protocol isn't sufficient to deal with existing and upcoming
challenges, and isn't necessary to solve the problems either.  It does
simplify things a lot, but doesn't cover existing cases like SONET
management networks, and it doesn't facilitate migrating from one
protocol as the "lingua franca" to a different one (because all nodes
must support the new protocol before switching over, instead of
a gradual and natural transition.)

Just my $0.02.

Right, thanks.  I forgot that the association between protocols and
a topology is a configured thing.  So the inconsistency is merely
whether or not to form adjacencies to nodes you don't have any data
protocols in common with.

and a rather unnecessary inconsistency at that.  In my
opinion there is no need for the MT draft to state
anything on the subject.

So what do folks think about having one DIS election
(or two if L1 and L2) per network layer protocol on
multi-protocol routers?

There really isn't any disadvantage other than being
slightly different to what we did before.

and that will interop with existing deployed routers ? I thought that
they look at all the existing routers on the net and then play internal
election. So if an old-style router gets on top in terms of priority,
how do you teach him that he's not 'participating' in a certain
protocol ?

Tony,

[...]

I would be fine with any approach that the WG agrees on and that

I do think that introducing structure and/or well-know reserved values
solves this problem.

Regarding the two items "3)" below ;) I think there was more to fix
there, but I'll check.

Tony,

Experimental would be good.
Vendor-specific for shipping would most probably trigger a similar

Agreed

As long as the issues have been discussed and well-understood.
I like you proposal with some well-defined tags though.

Yes, seems this would work well too.

It actually works with existing implementations really
well.

Let's do some scenarios.

1. v4v6_old and v4v6_new, v4v6_old is higher priority.
The v4v6_new runs two elections, one for v4 capable
and one for v6 capable.  It looses both to the
v4v6_old and so does not set up a pnode.  The v4v6_old
runs one election and wins it, and so makes a pnode
which advertises the v4v6_new and itself in its LSP.

2. v4v6_old and v4v6_new, v4v6_new is higher priority.
The v4v6_new runs two elections, one for v4 capable
and one for v6 capable.  It wins both and so sets up a
pnode.  Because it won both elections it adds both v4
capable and v6 capable to its LSP, in this case the
v4v6_old, plus itself. The v4v6_old runs one election
and looses it and so doesn't set up a pnode.

3. v4_old, v6_old and v4v6_new, v4_old is highest,
v6_old is lowest
The v4v6_new looses the v4 capable election, but wins
the v6 capable election.  Therefore it sets up a pnode
that mentions only the v6 capable (v6_old and itself)
in the pnode.  The v4_old wins its election and so
sets up a pnode mentioning everybody.  The v6_old
looses and so attaches itself to the v4_old pnode, it
doesn't think that v4v6 should be DIS so that pnode
fails the two way adjacency check and gets ignored by
everybody.  The v4v6_new lost to the v4_old so
attaches itself to the v4_old pnode in its LSPs.

4. v4_old, v6_new and v4v6_new, v4_old is highest,
v6_new is lowest
The v4v6_new looses the v4 capable election, but wins
the v6 capable election.  Therefore it sets up a pnode
that mentions only the v6 capable (v6_new and itself)
in the pnode.  The v4_old wins its election and so
sets up a pnode mentioning v4v6_new and itself.  It
doesn't have adjacency with v6_new so doesn't mention
it.  The v6_new looses and so attaches itself to the
v4v6_new pnode, it doesn't have adjacency with v4_old
and so doesn't include it in the election.  The
v4v6_new lost to the v4_old so attaches itself to the
v4_old pnode in its LSPs.

There are too many scenarios to go through them all
here, but I believe I looked at them all.  They all
work.

In summary a dual node runs two elections.  If it wins
either then it sets up a pnode.  The pnode mentions in
its LSPs everyone that voted for it, so if it wins
both it mentions all v4 capable and all v6 capable,
but if it wins only the v6 election (because a v4
capable was higher priority), then it only mentions v6
capable ISs in the pnode LSPs.

ok, I tried to understand this tricky business reading your newest
draft again and that will need some discussion in a smaller
implementor's list to weigh the pros vs. the risk.

The difference with a non-structured tag would be two-fold:

1. Separate sub-TLV wouldn't be reused for other purposes

2. Its contents and associated router behavior would be clearly
   documented.

Introducing stricture inside the tag and reserving a value for the
2547 application would have the same effect as a separate sub-TLV.

I don't know why you are talking about implementation internals here,
and it is interesting that I have to argue this again, while we agreed
on this point before:

If you guys don't expect compliant implementations to actually be able
'control IP prefix distribution', then don't confuse the reader and
remove hints on it in the text.

If, on the other hand, SPs really want implementations of this
document to be any more useful in prefix control than just flooding
the TLV and displaying the value in the show command, then something
like 'MUST support filtering on boundaries' would make sense in the
document.

the code that is currently in the field does support only 32-bit tags; both tags

Is it worth specifying a transitional mechanism to move the ID
out of the "experimental" space into the ietf-consensus numbered
space?

My concern has been collision in the numbering space.  In the
BGP extended community experimental numbering space, there is no
guidance as to how you should pick your experimental number.  I haven't
seen vendors providing a knob to set the feature's community number
and thus its possible for two vendors to utilize the same number
and end up causing all sorts of havoc.

I don't disagree with the idea of an experimental space, but it would
be nice to at least talk about namespace collisions and how we
might work around them.

I would also prefer an answer isn't "this hurts", "Don't do that then!".

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IS-IS for IP Internets Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: IS-IS Cryptographic Authentication
	Author(s)	: T. Li, R. Atkinson
	Filename	: draft-ietf-isis-hmac-05.txt
	Pages		: 6
	Date		: 2003-6-6
	
This document describes the authentication of IS-IS PDUs using the
HMAC-MD5 algorithm as found in RFC 2104.  IS-IS is specified in ISO
10589, with extensions to support IPv4 described in RFC 1195.  The
base specification includes an authentication mechanism that allows
for multiple authentication algorithms.  The base specificqation only
specifies the algorithm for cleartext passwords.
This document proposes an extension to that specification that allows
the use of the HMAC-MD5 authentication algorithm to be used in
conjunction with the existing authentication mechanisms.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-isis-hmac-05.txt

To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to 
ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.

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-isis-hmac-05.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-isis-hmac-05.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.

Hello,
What happens if for some reason Router A can't reach Router B, but
Router C can reach A & B (and vice-versa), when Router A,B,C are
connected over a broadcast network or LAN.

E.g. in the case for (OSPF and IS-IS) where:
i) C is the DR
ii) B is the DR


Thanks
Cheng-Yin

Hello,
Just got some private responses, perhaps I should clarify.
This is in context of an emulated LAN, and I am not looking for a fix in
routing protocols.

Thanks

This violates the transitivity requirement stated in ISO 10589.
You can't run ISIS on a subnetwork where this happens.
At least, that's the theory ;)

We should also point out that in case i) things are truly broken and
in case ii) the DR will not form an adjacency with A and the protocols
will be able to tell that things are broken.

Jeff, Tony, Acee,
Thanks for your clarification.
L2VPN WG is defining emulated LAN (and broadcast network for IP traffic)
service over IP/MPLS network and some of the mechanims being defined can
result in loss of communication among a subset of routers on the
emulated LAN (even if all the nodes in the underlying IP/MPLS transport
network are reachable).
Some of the discussions have been how tolerable are routing protocols to
this type of problem, if it is worth fixing some L2VPN WG mechanisms to
prevent this problem, how feasible are these L2VPN solutions, are these
not well-known problems ...

I hope the L2VPN WG would consider these issues and requirements in the
L2VPN solutions.
Perhaps a more detailed understanding of how things work/don't work may
help L2VPN WG develop/appreciate solutios that will work well with
routers for e.g, in case of (i) below, what would an emulated LAN user
observe in the routed network (is this predictable/unpredictable?)

Thanks
Cheng-Yin
p.s I have cced l2vpn, but pls feel free to respond only to the relevant
WG as is appropriate.

i don't think l2vpn wg needs to do much. when use link-state igp
in those places, ALWAYS assume it's unreliable. just use p2p. period.

Folks,

In particular, if there is a disconnect on a broadcast medium
between two routers and neither is the DR, then the two routers
will present a black hole between them.  This problem has been
seen before in real life and is Not Pretty.

For this reason alone, I would encourage you to model any L2
solution as a number of point-to-point links.  

Regards,
Tony

|    Jeff, Tony, Acee,
|    Thanks for your clarification.
|    L2VPN WG is defining emulated LAN (and broadcast network 
|    for IP traffic)
|    service over IP/MPLS network and some of the mechanims 
|    being defined can
|    result in loss of communication among a subset of routers on the
|    emulated LAN (even if all the nodes in the underlying 
|    IP/MPLS transport
|    network are reachable).
|    Some of the discussions have been how tolerable are 
|    routing protocols to
|    this type of problem, if it is worth fixing some L2VPN WG 
|    mechanisms to
|    prevent this problem, how feasible are these L2VPN 
|    solutions, are these
|    not well-known problems ...
|    
|    I hope the L2VPN WG would consider these issues and 
|    requirements in the
|    L2VPN solutions.
|    Perhaps a more detailed understanding of how things 
|    work/don't work may
|    help L2VPN WG develop/appreciate solutios that will work well with
|    routers for e.g, in case of (i) below, what would an 
|    emulated LAN user
|    observe in the routed network (is this predictable/unpredictable?)
|    
|    Thanks
|    Cheng-Yin
|    p.s I have cced l2vpn, but pls feel free to respond only 
|    to the relevant
|    WG as is appropriate.

Tony, Naiming,
Thanks for clarifying this further and providing suggestions.

I would agree that it's better to use point-to-point links (or OSPF's
multipoint) when there are such problems.
As known, this is not a problem in a real LAN segment or emulated LAN
segment, provided by a bridged LAN (bridging over real LAN segments) or
bridging over circuits.
As has been brought up in the OSPF/IS-IS mailing lists, it is when the
emulated LAN (broadcast network) uses an approach whereby a full-meshed
of communication is required and there is a requirement that every
communication channel is working that this becomes a problem for routing
(and for bridges too).

There have been some proposals to overcome the problems in the
full-meshed approach, e.g. disabling the emulated LAN when one or more
connectivity loss is detected or artificially partitioning the emulated
LAN, or engineer the transport network in such a way that communication
failure never/rarely happens from the perspective of the user of the
service (e.g. routers).
More protocol mechanisms (and perhaps some heuristics) may be used to
emulate a proper LAN failure, but I think it not easy to get this
working (it also raises the question, is this the only compelling way),
in particular because of race/timing issues.
Can an operator engineer a network such that the pseudo-wire or
communications never or "rarely" fail from the perspective of
routers/bridges? What is the cost and effectiveness (backup and
rerouting pseudo-wire may not be sufficient as there can be many other
reasons why communication is lost) in this case?

I hope the L2VPN WG would consider these service issues as carefully as
L2VPN discovery protocols because even the best L2VPN discovery
protocols cannot help if the L2VPN service itself does not work well
with routers and bridges.

Thanks
Cheng-Yin

Hi All,

What is the exact user of setting an interface to passive.
Should such an interface be present in the LSP data base though it does not
send/receive any ISIS packets.

Sumesh.

Sumesh -

	This allows you to advertise a direct route without
having a peer on that interface.  
	In English, if I have an interface to the 123.45/16
net, I may want to be able to advertise connectivity to
that net, even if there is no IS-IS peer on that circuit,
and thus no need to send hellos on that circuit.
	By marking the interface passive, we will include
123.45/16 as an IP reachability entry so that others know
they can use me to get there.

Hi WG,
	
	When ISIS is operating in the IPv6 Only environment, should I expect
that
	the same mechanism of Address Summarization via manual configuration
of
	L2 summary address as depicted in RFC 1195 section 3.2 be used?


	Thanks,


CMC

I would certainly expect that.  Summarization is absolutely necessary
for scalability, and without manual configuration of the summarization,
you would have to infer it dynamically.  This would imply that the
routers are capable of understanding the addressing plan for the network
without manual input.  They could also pick stocks.  ;-)

I would like to suggest the following clarifications/corrections to this
draft before next week's deadline.


1.	For the Link Local/Remote ID sub-TLV:

In section 3.1 the draft specifies that this sub-TLV 'MUST NOT occur more
than once within the extended IS reachability TLV'.  The limitation should
actually be that the sub-TLV appear at most once per neighbor data
structure.

Likewise, where multiple instances of the sub-TLV are present, the draft
dictates that if the 'sub-TLV occurs more than once within the extended IS
reachability TLV, the receiver SHOULD ignore all these sub-TLVs'.  As well
as being incorrect for the reason stated above, I believe that this text is
slightly unclear as to whether the receiver should discard all of the
sub-TLVs, or just the superfluous ones (where my preference is the latter,
which allows the receiver to be generous, and is preferable to ignoring all
instances of the sub-TLV).  

My suggested replacement text for this section would be: 

'The Link Local/Remote Identifiers sub-TLV MUST NOT occur more than once per
IS neighbor data structure within the extended IS reachability TLV.  If the
Link Local/Remote Identifiers sub-TLV occurs more than once within an IS
neighbor data structure in an extended IS reachability TLV, the receiver
SHOULD ignore all bar the first of these sub-TLVs'.  

Note that this also corrects the misspelling of 'Identifiers'.


2.	For the Link Protection Type sub-TLV:

Section 3.2 is erroneous in the same way as section 3.1 - I suggest altering
the text to:

'The Link Protection Type sub-TLV MUST NOT occur more than once per IS
neighbor data structure within the extended IS reachability TLV.  If the
Link Protection Type sub-TLV occurs more than once within an IS neighbor
data structure in an extended IS reachability TLV, the receiver SHOULD
ignore all bar the first of these sub-TLVs'.  


3.	For SRLG TLVs I believe that the description of the flag byte should
include a comment specifically stating that the least significant bit
determines whether Link IDs or IPv4 addresses will be used in the TLV (bit
set to 1 - IP addresses, bit set to 0 - Link IDs).  

I propose adding the sentence: 'For a numbered interface, IPv4 addresses
SHALL be used to describe the link, whereas for an unnumbered interface Link
IDs SHALL be used.'


4.	For SRLG TLVs I think that it would be advisable to have the
following comment (as we do in the Link ID sub-TLV description): 'If the
Link Remote Identifier is unknown, it is set to 0.'


5.	In section 3.1 (the description of Link Local/Remote ID sub-TLVs),
the sentence ending '...followed by four octets of Link Remote Idenfier' has
a spelling mistake - should be IdenTIfier.

Jon

Mike, Les -

Reviewing the restart draft, I see the following paragraph on page 5.  

4.3.1      Adjacency reacquisition during restart

   ....

   When BOTH a complete set of CSNP(s) (for each active level, in the
   case of a pt-pt circuit) and an acknowledgement have been received
   over the interface, the timer T1 is cancelled.

Section 7.3.15.3 of ISO 10589 defines "complete set of CSNPs" and discusses
when they should be sent, but I don't see signs of an acceptance criteria
for complete sets in 10589.  Since CSNPs are not acknowledged and do not
need to be sent in order, how much care is needed here?  I can imagine an
implementation that keeps track of the ranges seen, and keeps sending IIH
with the RR bit sent, but I don't see a requirement on the "Helper" to
retransmit the CSNPs.  

If we see a CSNP with "End LSP ID" field of all 1s, can we declare that we
are done, or must we hold on until we have an interlocking set?  If we must
hold on, should we require the Helper to resend the CSNPs?

According to Section 4.2.1c of the draft, the Helper is required to 
initiate transmission of a complete set of CSNPs every time it sees an IIH 
w RR set (assuming it is Pt-Pt or the appropriate system on the LAN).

You must track the receipt of a complete set of CSNPs. If you do not, then 
you cannot be assured of database synchronization.
10589 never made the transmission of CSNPs reliable. One of the goals of 
the draft is to make the transmission reliable so that database 
synchronization can be reached quickly and deterministically.

Les -
	Thanks - that's what I missed.  

	Interesting Datastructure problem, though I suppose nothing too
fancy is required here.  We could simply keep track of the lowest missing
LSPID, as they whole list is comming around again.  

	So the pacing dictated by 10589 is strong enough that we don't worry
about determanistic PDU loss? 
(The helper is so much faster that the helpee always drops the 6th
packet...)

what would be the "right" mechanism to track down a missing CSNP ?

i.e. if i send the following CSNPs 

e.g. CNSP #1 0000.0000.0000.00-00 -> 1111.1111.1111.00-00
     CSNP #2 2222.2222.2222.00-00 -> 3333.3333.3333.00-00
     CSNP #3 4444.4444.4444.00-00 -> ffff.ffff.ffff.00-00

assume now #2 gets lost; - is there a way for the receiver to track that
#2 is missing ? IMHO not;

one way of solving that is to "chain" the CSNPs i.e. the end-LSP-id is
the start LSP-id of the next CSNP;

e.g. CNSP #1 0000.0000.0000.00-00 -> 1111.1111.1111.00-00
     CSNP #2 1111.1111.1111.00-00 -> 3333.3333.3333.00-00
     CSNP #3 3333.3333.3333.00-00 -> ffff.ffff.ffff.00-00

comments ?

The receiver knows that some information is missing. How many CSNPs might 
be required to fill in the missing information is unknown. It depends on 
the distribution of system IDs and the number of LSPs generated by each of 
the missing systems.

I would expect that most implementations send the CSNPs in this order - 
though such behavior is not required. However, if you are suggesting that 
as part of the restart draft we should specify additional requirements on 
CSNP exchange, then I am against that.

To return to the example provided.  Let's assume that all three of hannes'
CSNPs arrive.  Can we conclude that we have a full set?

I don't see any numbering scheme, and I don't see any interlocking scheme
that would tell us that there is nothing between 1111.1111.1111.00-01 and
2222.2222.2221.FF-FF (and likewise the gap between 2 and 3.)  How do I know
that the second CSNP is the second, and not the fifth?

One way to make this reliable would be to add an optional "csnp sequence
number" tlv.  Thus it we have the numbers from 1 to k, and k has an end
LSPID of all 1s, then we have a complete set.

Jeff,
         I don't understand the issue. 10589 is quite clear that

A complete set of CSNPs is a set whose Start LSPID
and End LSPID ranges cover the complete possible
range of LSPIDs. (i.e. there is no possible LSPID value
which does not appear within the range of one of the
CSNPs in the set).

So while you still have gaps in the range, you have not received a complete 
set.

I don't see why you need a sequence number.

         Mike

Jeff -

An implementation that interprets 10589 7.3.15.3 as:

If multiple CSNPs are required to make up a complete set AND there are no 
LSPs that fall into the range between (for example) 1111.1111.1111.00-00 - 
1111.1111.1111.ff-ff THEN I can send


CNSP #1 0000.0000.0000.00-00 -> 1111.1111.1111.00-00
CSNP #2 2222.2222.2222.00-00 -> 3333.3333.3333.00-00
etc.

(i.e. never cover the "1111" range in any of the start/end ranges in any of 
the CSNPs)

and say that I have sent a "complete set" , then that implementation is 
non-conforming - or at least "brain-damaged".

It costs an implementation nothing to make sure that the range is covered 
completely i.e. no additional PDUs are required, you simply have to change 
the start ID on the second CSNP to be:

CSNP #2 1111.1111.1111.00-01 -> 3333.3333.3333.00-00

(or extend the end range of CSNP #1).

Given the above, I do not see that this adds any value.

It is certainly seriously broken, since if a neighbor HAS an LSP within the 
range (however small) which was omitted, it will never be triggered to 
re-transmit it. Thats why 10589 says a "complete" range and defines what it 
is. There is no room for slapdashness here.

Les -
	Great.  That was what I took to be "interlocking" that I thought you
had ruled out in an earlier mail.  

Looking at 10589, section 9.10
 
   9.10 Level 1 complete sequence
   ... 
   - Start LSP ID - the LSP ID of first LSP in the range covered by this
Complete Sequence Numbers PDU.
   - End LSP ID - the LSP ID of last LSP in the range covered by this
Complete Sequence Numbers PDU.

I read this yesterday to mean the LSP ID of real LSPs in the CSNP, rather
than the LSP ID of a hypothetical LSP that could exist.  Rereading it now, I
agree that could be read as you suggest.

I have looked at one implementation that does not seem to do the right thing
here. 

Is this worth adding to the Interoperability draft?

Here is what 10589 says in 7.3.15.3

A complete set of CSNPs is a set whose Start LSPID and End LSPID ranges 
cover the complete possible range of LSPIDs. (i.e. there is no possible 
LSPID value which does not appear within the range of one of the CSNPs in 
the set). Where more than one CSNP is transmitted on a broadcast circuit, 
they shall be separated by an interval of at least 
minimumBroadcast-LSPTransmissionInterval.

Note in particular the phrase:

(i.e. there is no possible LSPID value which does not appear within the 
range of one of the CSNPs in the set)

I don't think there is ANY ambiguity here nor any need for further 
clarification.

    Les

Since I opened this can of worms, I should try to get the worms back in the
can.  Thanks to Mike and Les for sorting this out for me.

As you noted, this does not cover the range from 00....00 to FF.....FF.  If
there is a LAN client X that is not the DIS is holding LSP
1111.1111.1112.0000, X would not be forced to flood the missing LSP.

This meets the requirements from 7.3.15.3:

	A complete set of CSNPs is a set whose Start 
	LSPID and End LSPID ranges cover the complete 
	possible range of LSPIDs. (i.e. there is no 
	possible LSPID value which does not appear 
	within the range of one of the CSNPs in the set).  

However, it is possible to meet this condition without repeating an LSP ID,
so receivers cannot depend on seeing the overlaps to decide if the sequence
is complete.  

One such abutting sequence increments the last LSPID in the previous CSNP
fragment, as below.  

CNSP #1 0000.0000.0000.00-00 -> 1111.1111.1111.00-00
CSNP #2 1111.1111.1111.00-01 -> 3333.3333.3333.00-00
CSNP #3 3333.3333.3333.00-01 -> ffff.ffff.ffff.ff-ff

Thanks, Jeff.

Just one comment on the concept of overlapping ranges. Although this 
perhaps meets the requirements in a strict sense, it is somewhat perverse 
and I would think it would be a bad idea, since the most obvious 
implementation for the receiver of a CSNP is to set SRMflags for any LSP 
which it holds which is within the bound of a received CSNP, but not 
otherwise mentioned (i.e. the sender doesn't have it). If a receiver 
happened to have an LSP which corresponded to the overlap, then it would 
get sent twice (assuming the CSNP "fragments" arrived sufficiently far 
apart for the LSP to have been transmitted. Obviously not a problem, but 
perhaps not a terribly good idea.

I see no reason whatsoever to use overlapping CSNP ranges.

and of course there is no guarantee that  (or rather requirement) that
you receive the CSNPs
in the same order they have been sent which could put you into hot water
anyway if you start
to rely on an overlap.

Abstract

   This document proposes an extension to IS-IS protocol [ISO10589] to
   support BGP peer auto discovery.

   We propose the addition of new information that an Intermediate
   System can flood in it's LSPDU. Such information is required for
   network based auto discovery of IBGP peers as described in [IBGP-AM].

Internet Draft        ISIS Ext for IBGP Auto Mesh              June 2003


1. Specification of Requirements

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].


2. Introduction

   Today all BGP peering configuration is manual and requires action on
   both sides of any given peering. In IBGP Auto Mesh draft [IBGP-AM] we
   propose the automation of this task for IBGP sessions. As a
   distribution of required information IS-IS [ISO10589] native flooding
   layer is being proposed for reuse.

   The information required to be flooded is static and can change only

   It is envisioned that in the future when new and better approaches
   for flooding information are available and deployed BGP Auto
   Discovery TLV could also be migrated from ISIS to such a new
   transport.


3. The BGP Auto Discovery TLV

   BGP Auto Discovery TLV is an IS-IS TLV of type code 243 (to be
   confirmed).

   The format of BGP Auto Discovery TLV is indicated for reference in
   Figure 1 below.

   Control Flags related to IGP operation:

   Symbol    Capabilities

   F         Flooding scope
   D         Down Bit

   "F" {flooding} flooding scope of this TLV, when set domain wide
       flooding scope is required, when not set TLV should not be
       flooded into other areas or levels. Default not set
       indicating area/level wide flooding only.

   "D" {down} down bit set by IGP when leaked to other levels.

   BGP Auto Discovery TLV can be contained in any LSP fragment. It also
   can be repeated. BGP itself will take all necessary filtering/update
   actions on reception of this information from ISIS.

   The minimum TLV length can be 10 octets.

   When a size of the TLV reaches 255 octets BGP will fragment the TLV.
   A special "FRAG" 4 bit counter has been allocated in the BGP Control
   Information section for unlikely cases where BGP Auto Discovery TLV
   needs to be splitted across multiple TLVs for a given BGP speaker.
   Fragmentation should be fully transparent to ISIS component.

   The specific information and encoding of BGP sub-TLVs is discussed in
   [IBGP-AM].

4. Operation

   It should be important to emphasize the fact that ISIS interaction
   with the new information is to remain minimal. BGP component will
   prepare the necessary information to be flooded as well as keep the
   received information in it's own data structure (cache). BGP
   component will also inform ISIS about required flooding scope for
   it's information by setting the F bit.

   It is assumed that all global LSP comparison will still take place.
   On the other hand it is not required that ISIS will try to parse and
   compare the TLV itself and based on the result initiate BGP
   notification or not. Added checksum field should make comparison done
   by BGP much less CPU intensive.

   Forced reflooding should only take place based on the manual
   configuration change of session related parameters. During normal
   network operation when BGP configuration related to peer maintenance
   is constant BGP Auto Discovery TLV should not cause any extra
   processing or flooding for ISIS.


5. Deployment Considerations

   The new proposed data to be flooded has an informational character.
   Routers which do not understand new information will not be able to
   participate in the IBGP auto mesh.

   Deployment of new code which supports new information can be
   incremental. Also enabling information distribution itself can also
   have an incremental character.

   It should be up to operator's decision to switch from informational
   use of BGP Auto Discovery TLV to operational IBGP auto mesh benefits.


6. IANA Considerations

   A new ISIS TLV type will need to be assigned by IANA. The TLV
   assignee will be responsible for allocation of any sub-TLVs for the
   IANA assigned TLV.

7. Security Considerations

   It is highly encouraged to use existing ISIS security mechanism when
   transporting BGP Auto Discovery TLV.

   While addition of new information does not present any additional
   risks, potential consequences of injection of not authorized BGP Auto
   Discovery TLVs into routing domain could by minimized by
   implementation of additional filtering before attempting to establish
   IBGP sessions.

| Abstract
| 
|    This document proposes an extension to IS-IS protocol [ISO10589] to
|    support BGP peer auto discovery.
| 
|    We propose the addition of new information that an Intermediate
|    System can flood in it's LSPDU. Such information is required for
|    network based auto discovery of IBGP peers as described in [IBGP-AM].

| 1. Specification of Requirements
| 
|    The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
|    "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
|    document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
| 
| 
| 2. Introduction
| 
|    Today all BGP peering configuration is manual and requires action on
|    both sides of any given peering. In IBGP Auto Mesh draft [IBGP-AM] we
|    propose the automation of this task for IBGP sessions. As a
|    distribution of required information IS-IS [ISO10589] native flooding
|    layer is being proposed for reuse.
| 
|    The information required to be flooded is static and can change only
|    by operator's manual configuration action.
| 
|    It is envisioned that in the future when new and better approaches
|    for flooding information are available and deployed BGP Auto
|    Discovery TLV could also be migrated from ISIS to such a new
|    transport.

| Internet Draft        ISIS Ext for IBGP Auto Mesh              June 2003
| 
| 
| 7. Security Considerations
| 
|    It is highly encouraged to use existing ISIS security mechanism when
|    transporting BGP Auto Discovery TLV.
| 
|    While addition of new information does not present any additional
|    risks, potential consequences of injection of not authorized BGP Auto
|    Discovery TLVs into routing domain could by minimized by
|    implementation of additional filtering before attempting to establish
|    IBGP sessions.

Robert,

I don't see any provision in here for dealing with route
reflectors.  Any plans in that direction?

Hmmm why ?

I thought that at least section 4.5 & 5.3 provide some basic support for
RRs already. Yes I realize that there is some more work required in this
area to address various cases folks use reflectors today, but hopefully
we could address most of them in the next versions :).

The issue of unordered CNSPs makes an interesting 
case.  However, I think the difficulty
here has nothing to do with the issue of using 
overlapping LSP IDs vs. abutting LSP IDs.  It is not
much more difficult to test that two IDs are 
adjacent than it is to test if they are equal.  

As Mike pointed out in private mail, overlapping
LSP IDs could introduce extra traffic, by causing
retransmissions of the LSP whose ID was duplicated.

I don't see any advantage to using overlapping LSP IDs.

I'm looking at draft-ietf-isis-restart-03.txt, and thinking about 
generating a set of CSNPs on a LAN interface, and the task of
selecting a Temporary DIS (TDIS), discussed in clause c) below.  

My issue is how much we need to consider the kind of anomaly 
where not all IS's on a LAN can peer with each other.  

Page 4 to 5

   When the neighbor of a (re)starting router receives an IIH with the 
   restart TLV having the RR bit set, if there exists on this interface 
   an adjacency in state "Up" with the same System ID, and in the case 
   of a LAN circuit, with the same source LAN address ....

  c) if the corresponding interface is a Point-to-Point interface, or 
     if the receiving router has the highest LnRouterPriority (with 
     highest source MAC address breaking ties) among those routers 
     whose IIHs contain the restart TLV, excluding the transmitting 
     router (note the actual DIS is NOT changed by this process.), 
     initiate the transmission over the corresponding interface of a 
     complete set of CSNPs, and set SRMflags on the corresponding 
     interface for all LSPs in the local LSP database. 

Consider the following corner case

	R is a restarting router running IP
	A is a low-priority router running IP
	B is a high-priority router running ISO only

	All are sending the Restart TLV

The problem is that in the best of circumstances, B will 
not have an adjacency with R or A, and R will be the DIS
on the IP subnetwork on the LAN.  

If you find this a long shot, replace the mismatch over
protocol with mismatches due to authentication, IP network 
matching, Area, etc.

I can see the following readings of the clause above

	Since B did not have an adjacency with R before 
	reboot, it will not send any CSNPs

	From A's point of view, B is a better candidate.
	(B is sending the Restart TLV, has higher priority)
	so A will not send any CSNPs

The outcome that we want is for A to become the TDIS, as 
B's CSNPs are useless.  If this is a real problem, here
are 3 potential 'solutions':

	1) The "restart TLVs" in the clause above must be
	restart TLVs with RA bit set.  

This allows us to restrict our selection to routers that
respond.  There are at least two problems:

  A) It introduces a new synchronization phase, while A waits
  to see if B responds, delaying R's return

  B) This does not deal correctly with the case that we have
  IS's R.IP and R.ISO rebooting at the same time: B will 
  respond to R.ISO, though this is no help to R.IP.  This is
  even less likely, though possible.   

Another attack is as follows

	2) IS A must consider the possibility of peering between
	potential TDIS and restarting router

This is asking a great deal of A, as it may be hard to
predict the rules that B or R would use in checking
adjacency.  We could use the list of A's peers to select
the TDIS from, but peering isn't a transitive relation.  

And the third choice is:

	3) This is a case that is not dealt with.
	The restarting router will get information on
	his other interfaces, and A can still maintain 
	his adjacency.  

I had been planning to implement the test "those routers 
whose IIHs contain the restart TLV" as a bit in A's list 
of adjacencies.  Each time A gets a Hello from an IS, this
bit is reset.  This allows rapid generation of the CSNP
set, though it may lead to silence sometimes: A peers
with B, but R does not, so B does not send.  The mirror
image is the case that A and B both peer with R, but not
with each other.  In that case, both will send CSNPs.  

A fourth choice would be to have on of R's old peers 
send the CSNPs after a period of silence, but this 
introduces new states and new difficulties, and another
lag at the start of things.

Jeff -

The major theme to what you have below is:

If routers on a LAN do not perform DIS election in a consistent manner 
(whether due to protocol support, authentication, or other issues) then 
problems arise.

The answer to this is: "Of course!". But this has nothing to do with 
restart - and it is unreasonable to expect the restart draft to deal with this.

A quick summary of the state of the protocol on this issue:

a)We have RFC 1195 which says that an IP only router and an OSI only router 
which are adjacent is an unsupported topology.
b)We have the multi-topology draft which says you should form an adjacency 
with all routers on the LAN regardless of what protocols/topologies they 
support.
c)We have the auto encapsulation draft which (along w the ITU) says you 
must only form an adjacency if you have a protocol in common
d)We have real world implementations which sometimes add on other 
requirements, most notably having a common IP subnet.

Now, if you think that we would be better off resolving this issue, I 
applaud your sentiments. But don't ask the restart draft to solve it. We 
have neither invented the problem nor made it any worse. We make the 
assumption that the set of eligible routers participating in what you have 
called the TDIS election are all following the same rules - as does the 
normal DIS election.

Some more specific comments inline.

This is indeed true. The requirement that applies to 4.2.1a,b,c is that the 
neighbor have an adjacency to the restarting router in the UP state. If it 
does not, even though the neighbor is restart capable it will not adhere to 
paragraph "c". The draft says:
"Otherwise (i.e. if there was no adjacency in the "UP" state to the
    system ID in question), process the IIH as normal by reinitializing
    the adjacency, and setting the RA bit in the returned IIH."

In your mismatched protocol example, A will not have an adjacency with B in 
the UP state so A will not consider B as a candidate for TDIS (or for DIS 
for that matter).

The same problem exists in normal DIS election. If A has an adjacency to 
both B and R, then A assumes that transitivity on the LAN exists and so it 
can safely consider both B and R as candidates in its DIS election. If the 
transitive assumption proves false, we can have problems, but not because 
of restart.

Which would still work - it would just be less efficient. In actual 
practice, if no topology changes have happened during the time interval it 
took R to restart, then getting a set of CSNPs from only one neighbor on 
any circuit would prove sufficient - but of course R has no way to know 
which neighbor to choose, so we rely on all of our neighbors. In most cases 
it's overkill, but it is necessary to make the process reliable.

</blockquote><br>
In your mismatched protocol example, A will not have an adjacency with B
in the UP state so A will not consider B as a candidate for TDIS (or for
DIS for that matter).<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite>The outcome that we want is for A to become
the TDIS, as <br>
B's CSNPs are useless.&nbsp; If this is a real problem, here<br>
are 3 potential 'solutions':<br>
<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>1) The
&quot;restart TLVs&quot; in the clause above must be<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>restart
TLVs with RA bit set.&nbsp; <br>
<br>
This allows us to restrict our selection to routers that<br>
respond.&nbsp; There are at least two problems:<br>
<br>
&nbsp; A) It introduces a new synchronization phase, while A waits<br>
&nbsp; to see if B responds, delaying R's return<br>
<br>
&nbsp; B) This does not deal correctly with the case that we have<br>
&nbsp; IS's R.IP and R.ISO rebooting at the same time: B will <br>
&nbsp; respond to R.ISO, though this is no help to R.IP.&nbsp; This
is<br>
&nbsp; even less likely, though possible.&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>
<br>
Another attack is as follows<br>
<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>2) IS A
must consider the possibility of peering between<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>potential
TDIS and restarting router<br>
<br>
This is asking a great deal of A, as it may be hard to<br>
predict the rules that B or R would use in checking<br>
adjacency.&nbsp; We could use the list of A's peers to select<br>
the TDIS from, but peering isn't a transitive relation.&nbsp; <br>
</blockquote><br>
The same problem exists in normal DIS election. If A has an adjacency to
both B and R, then A assumes that transitivity on the LAN exists and so
it can safely consider both B and R as candidates in its DIS election. If
the transitive assumption proves false, we can have problems, but not
because of restart.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite>And the third choice is:<br>
<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>3) This is
a case that is not dealt with.<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>The
restarting router will get information on<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>his other
interfaces, and A can still maintain <br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>his
adjacency.&nbsp; <br>
<br>
I had been planning to implement the test &quot;those routers <br>
whose IIHs contain the restart TLV&quot; as a bit in A's list <br>
of adjacencies.&nbsp; Each time A gets a Hello from an IS, this<br>
bit is reset.&nbsp; This allows rapid generation of the CSNP<br>
set, though it may lead to silence sometimes: A peers<br>
with B, but R does not, so B does not send.&nbsp; The mirror<br>
image is the case that A and B both peer with R, but not<br>
with each other.&nbsp; In that case, both will send CSNPs.&nbsp; <br>
</blockquote><br>
Which would still work - it would just be less efficient. In actual
practice, if no topology changes have happened during the time interval
it took R to restart, then getting a set of CSNPs from only one neighbor
on any circuit would prove sufficient - but of course R has no way to
know which neighbor to choose, so we rely on all of our neighbors. In
most cases it's overkill, but it is necessary to make the process
reliable.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite>A fourth choice would be to have on of R's old
peers <br>
send the CSNPs after a period of silence, but this <br>
introduces new states and new difficulties, and another<br>
lag at the start of things.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>

         From A's point of view, B is a better candidate.
        (B is sending the Restart TLV, has higher priority)
        so A will not send any CSNPs

Les -
	I agree that the draft cannot fix that which is broken
someplace else.  However, even your comment above refers to the 
"common sense" algorithm that I wanted to implement, but seemed 
ruled out by the text of the draft.

	The text suggests we must start with all routers on the LAN, 
while starting with the neighbors of A is a faster algorithm, and
more likely to reach the right result. 

	We could replace "among those routers" in the text below 

  c) if the corresponding interface is a Point-to-Point interface, or 
     if the receiving router has the highest LnRouterPriority (with 
     highest source MAC address breaking ties) among those routers 
     whose IIHs contain the restart TLV, excluding the transmitting 
     router (note the actual DIS is NOT changed by this process.), 
     initiate the transmission over the corresponding interface of a 
     complete set of CSNPs, and set SRMflags on the corresponding 
     interface for all LSPs in the local LSP database. 

with "among those routers adjacent to the neighbor".  If we give
the assisting router a symbolic name (such as A above), this would 
be made clearer: "among those routers adjacent to the neighbor A."

Jeff -

In the upcoming Version 4 of the draft this text has already been changed 
to read:
  among those routers to which the receiving router has an adjacency in 
state "Up" on this
  interface whose IIHs contain the restart TLV,

I think this is always what was intended but was not stated as explictly as 
it could have been i.e we never intended the "TDIS" election to include 
routers for which no adjacency in the UP state existed - whatever the reason.
.
Because your original mail discussed a variety of complex solutions, I 
didn't realize that all you were concerned about was a lack of explicitness 
in the text.

Hopefully this resolves the issue.

Thanx.

    Les

&gt; The major theme to what you have below is: <br>
<br>
&gt; If routers on a LAN do not perform DIS election in a consistent
manner<br>
(whether due to protocol support, <br>
&gt; authentication, or other issues) then problems arise.<br>
<br>
&gt; The answer to this is: &quot;Of course!&quot;. <br>
&gt; But this has nothing to do with restart - <br>
&gt; and it is unreasonable to expect the restart draft to deal with
this.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; From A's point of view,
B is a better candidate.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (B is sending the Restart TLV,
has higher priority)<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; so A will not send any
CSNPs<br>
<br>
<br>
&gt; In your mismatched protocol example, A will not have an adjacency
<br>
&gt; with B in the UP state so A will not consider B as a candidate 
<br>
&gt; for TDIS (or for DIS for that matter).<br>
<br>
Les -<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>I agree
that the draft cannot fix that which is broken<br>
someplace else.&nbsp; However, even your comment above refers to the
<br>
&quot;common sense&quot; algorithm that I wanted to implement, but seemed
<br>
ruled out by the text of the draft.<br>
<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>The text
suggests we must start with all routers on the LAN, <br>
while starting with the neighbors of A is a faster algorithm, and<br>
more likely to reach the right result. <br>
<br>
<x-tab>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</x-tab>We could
replace &quot;among those routers&quot; in the text below <br>
<br>
&nbsp; c) if the corresponding interface is a Point-to-Point interface,
or <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if the receiving router has the highest
LnRouterPriority (with <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; highest source MAC address breaking ties) among
those routers <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; whose IIHs contain the restart TLV, excluding
the transmitting <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; router (note the actual DIS is NOT changed by
this process.), <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; initiate the transmission over the corresponding
interface of a <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; complete set of CSNPs, and set SRMflags on the
corresponding <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; interface for all LSPs in the local LSP
database. <br>
<br>
with &quot;among those routers adjacent to the neighbor&quot;.&nbsp; If
we give<br>
the assisting router a symbolic name (such as A above), this would <br>
be made clearer: &quot;among those routers adjacent to the neighbor
A.&quot;<br>

Jeff -<br>
<br>
In the upcoming Version 4 of the draft this text has already been changed
to read:<br>

<dl><i>

tony,

could you alloc 10 min for this one if you are going to have a
session, thanks.
