The following has just been drawn to my attention:

https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/concept/mpls-encapsulated-payload-load-balancing-overview.html

The writer contacted the authors, but not the list, and stated that this 
heuristic results in similar behaviour to that which we are trying to 
address in this draft, but that the draft as written does not address 
this problem.

I have asked the writer to post to the PALS list or let me do it for them.

In such implementations, even requiring the CW does not address the 
issue that is being reported to us.

Looking at RFC4385 it says:

   If a PW is sensitive to packet misordering and is being carried over
    an MPLS PSN that uses the contents of the MPLS payload to select the
    ECMP path, it MUST employ a mechanism that prevents packet
    misordering.  A suitable mechanism is the PWMCW described in Section
    3 for data, and the PWACH described in Section 5 for channel-
    associated traffic.

PWMCW is a reference to the use of the CW  starting with 0000.

I think that the implication in RFC4385 is that implementations should 
not proceed past the CW. That was certainly my intention when I wrote 
the text in 2005. I must say that whilst I knew of implementations that 
tried to perform ECMP on IP payloads, I was not aware of implementations 
that would attempt to glean that the PW was Ethernet and that its 
payload was IP and then perform five-tuple ECMP on the Ethernet payload.

I am wondering if we need to address this, and if so how to proceed.

One way would be to add text quoting RFC4385 and noting the use of the 
control word only prevents incorrect ECMP in implementations that cease 
further packet analysis on encountering a CW. Implementations that do 
packet analysis beyond the CW should expect unpredictable results, and 
therefore as noted in RFC4385 MUST employ an alternate mechanism to 
prevent packet misordering.

We could leave it there or we could suggest that using RFC6391 or 
RFC6790 with no further heuristics is a safe way to achieve ECMP.

Thanks to Ytti for pointing this out.

It seems that there are other implementations that also do deep heuristics.

Hey,

Just enabling CW does not stop transit from mis-guessing payload.
Complete solution requires


a) Enable CW
b) Disable payload heuristics in transit (only rely on labels)
c) Enable Entropy or FAT (ECMP/LAG is essentially non-optional today).


Why enabling just CW won't help, is that some platforms, like JunOS
will by default try to detect presence of CW and proceed with
heuristics with different offset if or not CW was detected.

This creates several problem, first if you have CW and non-CW traffic,
then non-CW traffic with XEROX DMAC will cause wrong offset for
heuristics, allowing transit to misidentify.

JunOS isn't just checking for first nibble, it'll need etherType,
ipVer and and ipLen to match. But as detecting CW doesn't actually
change the heuristics, just offset. There is 0 guarantee that we are
actually seeing IP packet when we think we are. It is highly probable
we guess right, but really convenient packet, and we will misidentify.
Because it'll need extremely convenient frame, it will happen very
very rarely, but when it does, no one will be able to troubleshoot it.
How can you attribute problem like this to core 'everything works
perfectly on every station before we added GRE tunnels to our
stations, but after we added GRE tunnels to our station, _one_ station
experiences packet loss', this is possible outcome in JunOS
implementation with or without CW, unless heuristics is also disabled.

Stewart,

I agree that this should be addressed, as the behavior as described in the
online documentation would prevent guaranteed in-order delivery, which is
what we are trying to address.

I also agree that we should include the quote from 4385 and your suggestion
in your second-to-last paragraph.

I also think that we should include the following, as you suggest in your
last paragraph: =E2=80=9CRFC 6391 is RECOMMENDED as the safe and proper way=
 to
achieve ECMP for Ethernet PWs if that indeed is desired." I don=E2=80=99t t=
hink we
need to also reference 6790, but that could be just me. :-)

Cheers,
Andy

RFC6790 ought to be another way to address the problem, but as we noted 
a while ago in the SFL work it stops short of mandating DPI type LB.

I think I therefore agree that we out to just use 6391, after all with 
that negotiated by both ends it would be rather silly to then do the DPI.

Not sure if I will get the text done by Monday, but this thread should 
give everyone a heads-up, I will put it on the slides for discussion and 
if I don't get the draft out I will put it in some other accessible place.

    <p>RFC6790 ought to be another way to address the problem, but as we
      noted a while ago in the SFL work it stops short of mandating DPI
      type LB.</p>
    <p>I think I therefore agree that we out to just use 6391, after all
      with that negotiated by both ends it would be rather silly to then
      do the DPI.</p>
    <p>Not sure if I will get the text done by Monday, but this thread
      should give everyone a heads-up, I will put it on the slides for
      discussion and if I don't get the draft out I will put it in some
      other accessible place.<br>

          that indeed is desired." I don’t think we need to also

            <br>
            The writer contacted the authors, but not the list, and
            stated that this heuristic results in similar behaviour to
            that which we are trying to address in this draft, but that
            the draft as written does not address this problem.<br>
            <br>
            I have asked the writer to post to the PALS list or let me
            do it for them.<br>
            <br>
            In such implementations, even requiring the CW does not
            address the issue that is being reported to us.<br>
            <br>
            Looking at RFC4385 it says:<br>
            <br>
              If a PW is sensitive to packet misordering and is being
            carried over<br>
               an MPLS PSN that uses the contents of the MPLS payload to
            select the<br>
               ECMP path, it MUST employ a mechanism that prevents
            packet<br>
               misordering.  A suitable mechanism is the PWMCW described
            in Section<br>
               3 for data, and the PWACH described in Section 5 for
            channel-<br>
               associated traffic.<br>
            <br>
            PWMCW is a reference to the use of the CW  starting with
            0000.<br>
            <br>
            I think that the implication in RFC4385 is that
            implementations should not proceed past the CW. That was
            certainly my intention when I wrote the text in 2005. I must
            say that whilst I knew of implementations that tried to
            perform ECMP on IP payloads, I was not aware of
            implementations that would attempt to glean that the PW was
            Ethernet and that its payload was IP and then perform
            five-tuple ECMP on the Ethernet payload.<br>
            <br>
            I am wondering if we need to address this, and if so how to
            proceed.<br>
            <br>
            One way would be to add text quoting RFC4385 and noting the
            use of the control word only prevents incorrect ECMP in
            implementations that cease further packet analysis on
            encountering a CW. Implementations that do packet analysis
            beyond the CW should expect unpredictable results, and
            therefore as noted in RFC4385 MUST employ an alternate
            mechanism to prevent packet misordering.<br>
            <br>
            We could leave it there or we could suggest that using
            RFC6391 or RFC6790 with no further heuristics is a safe way
            to achieve ECMP.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

        DOI:        10.17487/RFC8237

This document describes a method for generating an aggregated
pseudowire (PW) status message transmitted for a statically
configured PW on a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label
Switched Path (LSP) to indicate the status of one or more PWs carried
on the LSP.

The method for transmitting the PW status information is not new;
however, this protocol extension allows a Service Provider (SP) to
reliably monitor the individual PW status while not overwhelming the
network with multiple periodic status messages.  This is achieved by
sending a single cumulative summary status verification message for
all the PWs grouped in the same LSP.

This document is a product of the Pseudowire And LDP-enabled Services Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
