Abstract
The Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) suite of protocols has been defined to
control different switching technologies as well as different
applications. These include support for requesting TDM connections
including SONET/SDH and Optical Transport Networks (OTNs).
This document provides the extensions of the IETF Link State Routing
Protocols to meet the routing requirements for an Automatically
Switched Optical Network (ASON) as defined by ITU-T.

1. Conventions used in this document
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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
The reader is assumed to be familiar with the terminology and
requirements developed in [ASON-RR] and the evaluation outcomes
detailed in [ASON-EVAL].
2. Introduction
There are certain capabilities that are needed to support the ITU-T
Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON) control plane
architecture as defined in [G.8080]. [ASON-RR] details the routing
requirements for the GMPLS suite of routing protocols to support the
capabilities and functionality of ASON control planes identified in
[G.7715] and in [G.7715.1].
[ASON-EVAL] evaluates the IETF Link State Routing Protocols against
the requirements identified in [ASON-RR]. Candidate routing protocols
are IGP (OSPFv2 and IS-IS).
ASON (Routing) terminology sections are provided in Appendix 1 and 2.
3. Reachability
3.1 OSPFv2
In order to advertise blocks of reachable address prefixes a
summarization mechanism is introduced that complements the
techniques described in [OSPF-NODE].
This extension takes the form of a network mask (a 32-bit number
indicating the range of IP addresses residing on a single IP
network/subnet). The set of local addresses are carried in an OSPF
TE LSA node attribute TLV (a specific sub-TLV is defined per address
family, e.g., IPv4 and IPv6).
The proposed solution is to advertise the local address prefixes of
a router as new sub-TLVs of the (OSPFv2 TE LSA) Node Attribute top
level TLV (of Type TBD). This document defines the following sub-
TLVs:
- Node IPv4 Local Prefix sub-TLV: Type 3 - Length: variable
- Node IPv6 Local Prefix sub-TLV: Type 4 - Length: variable
3.1.1 Node IPv4 local prefix sub-TLV
The node IPv4 local prefix sub-TLV has a type of 3 and contains one
or more local IPv4 prefixes. It has the following format:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The length is set to 8 * n where n is the number of local prefixes
included in the sub-TLV.
Network mask: A 32-bit number indicating the IPv4 address mask
for the advertised destination prefix.
Each <Network mask, IPv4 Address> pair listed as part of this sub-
TLV represents a reachable destination prefix hosted by the
advertising Router ID.
The local addresses that can be learned from TE LSAs i.e. router
address and TE interface addresses SHOULD not be advertised in the
node IPv4 local prefix sub-TLV.
3.1.2 Node IPv6 local prefix sub-TLV
The node IPv6 local prefix sub-TLV has a type of 4 and contains one
or more local IPv6 prefixes. IPv6 Prefix Representation uses RFC
2740 Section A.4.1. It has the following format:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

PrefixLength: length in bits of the prefix.
PrefixOptions: 8-bit field describing various capabilities
associated with the prefix (see [RFC2740] Section A.4.2).
Address Prefix: encoding of the prefix itself as an even multiple of
32-bit words, padding with zero bits as necessary.
The Length is set to Sum[n][4 + #32-bit words/4] where n is the
number of local prefixes included in the sub-TLV.
The local addresses that can be learned from TE LSAs i.e. router
address and TE interface addresses SHOULD not be advertised in the
node IPv6 local prefix sub-TLV.
3.2 IS-IS
A similar mechanism does not exist for IS-IS as the Extended IP
Reachability TLV [RFC3784] focuses on IP reachable end-points
(terminating points), as its name indicates.
Solution TBD
4. Link Attribute
4.1 Local Adaptation
The Local Adaptation is defined as TE link attribute (i.e. sub-TLV)
that describes the cross/inter-layer relationships. This information
is encoded as an Interface Adaptation Capability Descriptor (IACD).
In OSPF, the Interface Adaptation Capability Descriptor is a sub-TLV
(of type TBA) of the Link TLV (of type 2).
In IS-IS, the Interface Adaptation Capability Descriptor is a sub-
TLV (of type TBA) of the Extended IS Reachability TLV (of type 22).
4.2 Technology Specific Bandwidth Accounting
GMPLS Routing defines an Interface Switching Capability Descriptor
(ISCD) that delivers among others the information about the
(maximum/minimum) bandwidth per priority an LSP can make use of.
D.Papadimitriou et al. - Expires March 2006 4
draft-dimitri-ccamp-gmpls-ason-routing-sol-00.txt October 2005
In the ASON context, accounting on per timeslot basis using 32-bit
tuples of the form <signal_type (8 bits); number of unallocated
timeslots (24 bits)> may optionally extend the technology specific
information part of the ISCD sub-TLV.
In OSPF, the Interface Switching Capability Descriptor is a sub-TLV
(of type 15) of the Link TLV (of type 2).
In IS-IS, the Interface Switching Capability Descriptor is a sub-TLV
(of type 21) of the Extended IS Reachability TLV (of type 22).
5. Routing Information Scope
The Ri is a logical control plane entity that is associated to a
control plane "router". The latter is the source for topology
information that it generates and shares with other control plane
"routers". The Ri is identified by the (advertising) Router_ID. The
routing protocol MUST support a single Ri advertising on behalf of
more than one Li. Each Li is identified by a unique TE Router ID.
5.1 Link Advertisement (Local and Remote TE Router ID sub-TLV)
A Router_ID (Ri) advertising on behalf multiple TE Router_ID (Li's)
creates a 1:N relationship between the Router_ID and the TE
Router_ID. As the link local and link remote (unnumbered) ID
association is not unique per node (per Li unicity), the
advertisement needs to indicate the remote Lj value and rely on the
initial discovery process to retrieve the [Li;Lj] relationship. In
brief, as unnumbered links have their ID defined on per Li bases,
the remote Lj needs to be identified to scope the link remote ID to
the local Li. Therefore, the routing protocol MUST be able to
disambiguate the advertised TE links so that they can be associated
with the correct TE Router ID.
5.1.1 OSPFv2
For this purpose, a new sub-TLV of the (OSPFv2 TE LSA) top level
Link TLV is introduced that defines the local and the remote
TE_Router_ID.
The type of this sub-TLV is 17, and length is eight octets. The
value field of this sub-TLV contains four octets of Local TE Router
Identifier followed by four octets of Remote TE Router Identifier.
The value of the Remote TE Router Identifier SHOULD NOT be set to 0.
The format of this sub-TLV is the following:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| 17 | Length |

| Local TE Router Identifier |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Remote TE Router Identifier |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This sub-TLV is optional and SHOULD only be included as part of the
top level Link TLV if the Router_ID is advertising on behalf of more
than one TE_Router_ID. In any other case, this sub-TLV SHOULD be
omitted.
Note: The Link ID sub-TLV that identifies the other end of the link
(i.e. Router ID of the neighbor for point-to-point links) MUST
appear exactly once per Link TLV.
5.1.2 IS-IS
TBD
5.1 Reachability Advertisement (Local TE Router ID sub-TLV)
When the Router_ID advertises on behalf of multiple TE Router_IDs,
the routing protocol MUST be able to associate the advertised
reachability information with the correct TE Router ID.
5.2.1 OSPFv2
For this purpose, a new sub-TLV of the (OSPFv2 TE LSA) top level
Node Attribute TLV is introduced. This TLV associates the local
prefixes (sub-TLV 3 and 4, see above) to a given TE Router_ID.
The type of this sub-TLV is 5, and length is four octets. The value
field of this sub-TLV contains four octets of Local TE Router
Identifier.
The format of this sub-TLV is the following:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| 5 | Length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Local TE Router Identifier |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This sub-TLV is optional and SHOULD only be included as part of the
Node Attribute TLV if the Router_ID is advertising on behalf of more
than one TE_Router_ID. In any other case, this sub-TLV SHOULD be
omitted.

Appendix 1: ASON Terminology
This document makes use of the following terms:
Administrative domain: (see Recommendation G.805) for the purposes of
[G7715.1] an administrative domain represents the extent of resources
which belong to a single player such as a network operator, a service
provider, or an end-user. Administrative domains of different players
do not overlap amongst themselves.
Control plane: performs the call control and connection control
functions. Through signaling, the control plane sets up and releases
connections, and may restore a connection in case of a failure.
(Control) Domain: represents a collection of (control) entities that
are grouped for a particular purpose. The control plane is subdivided
into domains matching administrative domains. Within an
administrative domain, further subdivisions of the control plane are
recursively applied. A routing control domain is an abstract entity
that hides the details of the RC distribution.
External NNI (E-NNI): interfaces are located between protocol
controllers between control domains.
Internal NNI (I-NNI): interfaces are located between protocol
controllers within control domains.
Link: (see Recommendation G.805) a "topological component" which
describes a fixed relationship between a "subnetwork" or "access
group" and another "subnetwork" or "access group". Links are not
limited to being provided by a single server trail.
Management plane: performs management functions for the Transport
Plane, the control plane and the system as a whole. It also provides
coordination between all the planes. The following management
functional areas are performed in the management plane: performance,
fault, configuration, accounting and security management
Management domain: (see Recommendation G.805) a management domain
defines a collection of managed objects which are grouped to meet
organizational requirements according to geography, technology,
policy or other structure, and for a number of functional areas such
as configuration, security, (FCAPS), for the purpose of providing
control in a consistent manner. Management domains can be disjoint,
contained or overlapping. As such the resources within an
administrative domain can be distributed into several possible
overlapping management domains. The same resource can therefore
belong to several management domains simultaneously, but a management
domain shall not cross the border of an administrative domain.
Subnetwork Point (SNP): The SNP is a control plane abstraction that
represents an actual or potential transport plane resource. SNPs (in
D.Papadimitriou et al. - Expires March 2006 10
draft-dimitri-ccamp-gmpls-ason-routing-sol-00.txt October 2005
different subnetwork partitions) may represent the same transport
resource. A one-to-one correspondence should not be assumed.
Subnetwork Point Pool (SNPP): A set of SNPs that are grouped together
for the purposes of routing.
Termination Connection Point (TCP): A TCP represents the output of a
Trail Termination function or the input to a Trail Termination Sink
function.
Transport plane: provides bi-directional or unidirectional transfer
of user information, from one location to another. It can also
provide transfer of some control and network management information.
The Transport Plane is layered; it is equivalent to the Transport
Network defined in G.805 Recommendation.
User Network Interface (UNI): interfaces are located between protocol
controllers between a user and a control domain. Note: there is no
routing function associated with a UNI reference point.

draft-dimitri-ccamp-gmpls-ason-routing-sol-00.txt October 2005
Appendix 2: ASON Routing Terminology
This document makes use of the following terms:
Routing Area (RA): a RA represents a partition of the data plane and
its identifier is used within the control plane as the representation
of this partition. Per [G.8080] a RA is defined by a set of sub-
networks, the links that interconnect them, and the interfaces
representing the ends of the links exiting that RA. A RA may contain
smaller RAs inter-connected by links. The limit of subdivision
results in a RA that contains two sub-networks interconnected by a
single link.
Routing Database (RDB): repository for the local topology, network
topology, reachability, and other routing information that is updated
as part of the routing information exchange and may additionally
contain information that is configured. The RDB may contain routing
information for more than one Routing Area (RA).
Routing Components: ASON routing architecture functions. These
functions can be classified as protocol independent (Link Resource
Manager or LRM, Routing Controller or RC) and protocol specific
(Protocol Controller or PC).
Routing Controller (RC): handles (abstract) information needed for
routing and the routing information exchange with peering RCs by
operating on the RDB. The RC has access to a view of the RDB. The RC
is protocol independent.
Note: Since the RDB may contain routing information pertaining to
multiple RAs (and possibly to multiple layer networks), the RCs
accessing the RDB may share the routing information.
Link Resource Manager (LRM): supplies all the relevant component and
TE link information to the RC. It informs the RC about any state
changes of the link resources it controls.
Protocol Controller (PC): handles protocol specific message exchanges
according to the reference point over which the information is
exchanged (e.g. E-NNI, I-NNI), and internal exchanges with the RC.
The PC function is protocol dependent.
