 <t> 
Operational Technology (OT) refers to industrial networks that are specifically 
deployed in order to monitor production systems and support control loops and
movement detection operations for process control (i.e., continuous manufacturing) and
factory automation (i.e., discrete manufacturing), as well as protection systems
used in power distribution automation (the SmartGrid).
Due to its different goals, OT has evolved in parallel but
in a manner that is radically different from Information Technology/Information
and Communications Technology (IT/ICT), focusing on highly secure, reliable and
deterministic networks, with limited scalability over a bounded and closed area.
 </t> <t>
In OT environments, deterministic networks are characterized as providing a 
guaranteed bandwidth with extremely low packet loss rates, bounded latency,
and low jitter.
 </t> <t>
The convergence of IT and OT technologies, also called the Industrial Internet, 
represents a major evolution for both sides. For IT, it means a new level of
Quality of Service whereby the transfer of packets is completely controlled
and repeatable, different flows are perfectly isolated from one another,
and packet loss and system downtimes are reduced drastically;
for OT, it means sharing IT resources between deterministic and stochastic flows
in order to retrieve vasts amounts of so-far unmeasured data and enable
additional optimizations. 
 </t> <t> 
The work has already started; in particular, the industrial automation space has
been developing a number of Ethernet-based replacements for existing digital
control systems (DCS), often not packet-based (fieldbus technologies).
These replacements are meant to provide similar behavior as the incumbent 
protocols, and their common focus is to transport a fully characterized 
flow over a well-controlled environment (i.e., a factory floor), with a 
bounded latency, extraordinarily low frame loss, and a very narrow jitter. 
Examples of such protocols include PROFINET, ODVA Ethernet/IP, and EtherCAT.
</t><t>
As an example, Industrial Automation segregates the network along 
the broad lines of the Purdue Enterprise Reference Architecture (PERA), using 
different technologies at each level, and public infrastructures such as the 
power distribution grid require deterministic properties over the Wide Area.
To fully serve an industrial application between a wireless sensor and a 
virtualized control system operating from the carpeted floor, a deterministic
path may span, for instance, across a (limited) number of 802.1 bridges and 
then a (limited) number of IP routers. In that example, the IEEE802.1 bridges 
may be operating at Layer-2 over Ethernet whereas the IP routers may be
<xref target="TiSCH">6TiSCH</xref> 
nodes operating at Layer-2 and/or Layer-3 over the IEEE802.15.4 MAC. 
</t><t>
In parallel, the need for determinism in professional and home audio/video 
markets drove the formation of the Audio/Video Bridging (AVB) standards efforts
in IEEE 802.1. With the demand for connectivity and multimedia in transportation,
AVB is being evaluated for application in vehicle head units, rear seat
entertainment modules, amplifiers, camera modules, and engine control systems.
Automotive AVB networks share the OT requirements for deterministic networks
characteristics.
</t><t>
Other instances of in-vehicle deterministic networks have arisen as well for 
control networks in cars, trains and buses, as well as avionics, with, for
instance, the mission-critical "Avionics Full-Duplex Switched Ethernet" (AFDX)
that was designed as part of the ARINC 664 standards. Existing automotive 
control networks such as the LIN, CAN and FlexRay standards were not designed 
to cover the increasing demands in terms of bandwidth and scalability that we 
see with various kinds of Driver Assistance Systems (DAS); it results that new
multiplexing technologies based on Ethernet are now getting traction.
 </t> <t>
Other industries where strong needs for deterministic networks are now emerging
include:
<xref target="I-D.korhonen-detnet-telreq">radio access networks</xref>,
<xref target="I-D.wetterwald-detnet-utilities-reqs">the SmartGrid</xref>, and
<xref target="I-D.gunther-detnet-proaudio-req">ProAudio networks</xref>.
</t><t>
This wider application scope for deterministic networks has led to the IEEE802.1
AVB Task Group becoming the <xref target="IEEE802.1TSNTG">Time-Sensitive
Networking (TSN) Task Group (TG)</xref>, additionally covering industrial and
vehicular applications. 
</t><t> 
The networks in consideration are now extending beyond the LAN boundaries and
require secure deterministic forwarding and connectivity over a mixed
Layer-2/Layer-3 network.
The properties of deterministic networks will have specific requirements for the
use of routed networks to support these applications and a new model must be
proposed to integrate determinism in IT technology.
</t><t>
The proposed model should enable a fully scheduled operation orchestrated by 
a central controller, and may support a more distributed operation with probably 
lesser capabilities. In any fashion, the model should not compromise the ability
of a network to keep carrying the sorts of traffic that is already carried 
today in conjunction with new, more deterministic flows. 
</t><t>
Once the abstract model is agreed upon, the IETF will need to specify the 
signaling elements to be used to establish a path and the tagging elements to be
used identify the flows that are to be forwarded along that path. The IETF will
also need to specify the necessary protocols, or protocol additions, based
on relevant IETF technologies such as <xref target="PCE">PCE</xref>, 
<xref target="TEAS">TEAS</xref>, <xref target="CCAMP">CCAMP</xref> and
<xref target="MPLS">MPLS</xref>, to implement the selected model. 
</t><t>
As a result of this work, it will be possible to establish a multi-hop path over
the IP network, for a particular flow with given timing and precise throughput
requirements, and carry this particular flow along the multi-hop path with such
characteristics as low latency and ultra-low jitter, duplication and elimination
of packets over non-congruent paths for a higher delivery ratio, and/or zero
congestion loss, regardless of the amount of other flows in the network. 
Depending on the network capabilities and on the current state, requests to
establish a path by an end-node or a network management entity may be granted or
rejected, an existing path may be moved or removed, and flows exceeding their
contract may face packet declassification and drop.

    <section title="On Deterministic Networking">

<t>    
The Internet is not the only digital network that has grown dramatically over 
the last 30-40 years.  Video and audio entertainment, and control systems for 
machinery, manufacturing processes, and vehicles are also ubiquitous, and are 
now based almost entirely on digital technologies.  Over the past 10 years, 
engineers in these fields have come to realize that significant advantages in 
both cost and in the ability to accelerate growth can be obtained by basing all 
of these disparate digital technologies on packet networks.
</t><t>
The goals of Deterministic Networking are to enable the migration of 
applications that use special-purpose fieldbus technologies (HDMI, CANbus,
ProfiBus, etc... even RS-232!) to packet technologies in general, and the
Internet Protocol in particular, and to support both these new applications, 
and existing packet network applications, over the same physical network.
</t><t>
Considerable experience (<xref target="ODVA"/>,<xref target="AVnu"/>,
<xref target="Profinet"/>,<xref target="HSR-PRP"/>, etc...) 
has shown that these applications need a some or all of a suite of features that
includes:
<list style="numbers">  <t> 
   Time synchronization of all host and network nodes (routers and/or bridges),
   accurate to something between 10 nanoseconds and 10 microseconds, depending on 
   the application.
 </t> <t>
   Support for critical packet flows that:
   <list style="symbols">   <t> 
     Can be unicast or multicast;
   </t> <t>
     Need absolute guarantees of minimum and maximum latency end-to-end across 
     the network; sometimes a tight jitter is required as well;
   </t> <t>
     Need a packet loss ratio beyond the classical range for a particular medium,
     in the range of 1.0e-9 to 1.0e-12, or better, on Ethernet, and in the
     order of 1.0e-5 in Wireless Sensor mesh Networks;
   </t> <t>
     Can, in total, absorb more than half of the network's available bandwidth 
     (that is, massive over-provisioning is ruled out as a solution);
   </t> <t>
     Cannot suffer throttling, congestion feedback, or any other network-imposed 
     transmission delay, although the flows can be meaningfully characterized 
     either by a fixed, repeating transmission schedule, or by a maximum
     bandwidth and packet size;
   </t> </list>
 
 </t> <t>
     Multiple methods to schedule, shape, limit, and otherwise control the 
     transmission of critical packets at each hop through the network data 
     plane;
 </t> <t>
     Robust defenses against misbehaving hosts, routers, or bridges, both in the 
     data and control planes, with guarantees that a critical flow within its 
     guaranteed resources cannot be affected by other flows whatever the
     pressures on the network;
 </t> <t>
     One or more methods to reserve resources in bridges and routers to carry 
     these flows.
 </t> </list>
 </t>

<t> 
Time synchronization techniques need not be addressed by an IETF Working Group; 
there are a number of standards available for this purpose, including IEEE 1588,
IEEE 802.1AS, and more.
 </t> <t>
The multicast, latency, loss ratio, and non-throttling needs are made necessary 
by the algorithms employed by the applications.  
They are not simply the transliteration of fieldbus needs to a packet-based 
fieldbus simulation, but reflect fundamental mathematics of the control of a 
physical system.
 </t> <t>
With classical forwarding latency- and loss-sensitive packets across a network, 
interactions among different critical flows introduce fundamental uncertainties 
in delivery schedules.  The details of the queuing, shaping, and scheduling 
algorithms employed by each bridge or router to control the output sequence 
on a given port affect the detailed makeup of the output stream, e.g. how 
finely a given flow's packets are mixed among those of other flows.  
 </t> <t>
This, in turn, has a strong effect on the buffer requirements, and hence the 
latency guarantees deliverable, by the next bridge or router along the path.  
For this reason, the IEEE 802.1 Time-Sensitive Networking Task Group has defined
a new set of queuing, shaping, and scheduling algorithms 
(see <xref target="Shaping"/>) that enable each bridge or router to
compute the exact number of buffers to be allocated for each flow or class of 
flows.  The present authors assume that these techniques will be used by the 
DetNet Working Group.
 </t> <t>
Robustness is a common need for networking protocols, but plays a more important
part in real-time control networks, where expensive equipment, and even lives, 
can be lost due to misbehaving equipment.
 </t> <t>
Reserving resources before packet transmission is the one fundamental shift in 
the behavior of network applications that is impossible to avoid.  
In the first place, a network cannot deliver finite latency and practically zero 
packet loss to an arbitrarily high offered load.  Secondly, achieving 
practically zero packet loss for un-throttled (though bandwidth limited) flows 
means that bridges and routers have to dedicate buffer resources to specific 
flows or to classes of flows.  The requirements of each reservation have to be 
translated into the parameters that control each host's, bridge's, and router's 
queuing, shaping, and scheduling functions and delivered to the hosts, bridges, 
and routers.

    Industrial process control already leverages deterministic 
    wireless Low power and Lossy Networks (LLNs) to interconnect critical
    resource-constrained devices and form wireless mesh networks, with
    standards such as <xref target="ISA100.11a"/> and <xref target="WirelessHART"/>.
    
 </t> <t>
    These standards rely on variations of the <xref target="IEEE802154"/> 
    <xref target="RFC7554">timeSlotted Channel Hopping (TSCH)
    </xref> Medium Access Control (MAC), and a form of centralized Path 
    Computation Element (PCE), to deliver deterministic capabilities.
     </t> <t>
    The TSCH MAC benefits include high reliability against interference, low 
    power consumption on characterized flows, and Traffic Engineering 
    capabilities. Typical applications are open and closed control loops,
    as well as supervisory control flows and management.
    
 </t> <t>
    The 6TiSCH Working Group focuses only on the TSCH mode of the IEEE802.15.4e 
    standard. The WG currently defines a framework for managing the TSCH schedule. 
    Future work will standardize deterministic operations over so-called tracks 
    as described in <xref target="I-D.ietf-6tisch-architecture"/>. 
    Tracks are an instance of a deterministic path, and the DetNet work
    is a prerequisite to specify track operations and serve process control 
    applications. The dependencies that 6TiSCH has on PCE and DetNet work
    are further discussed in <xref target='I-D.thubert-6tisch-4detnet'/>.

     used for sensor data, as well as Peer-to-peer (P2P) and Peer-to-multipeer
     (P2MP) communications. Additional considerations on Duocast and its N-cast

	An architecture that defines the space in which the various parts of
	the DetNet solution operate is required.  A start has been made
	with <xref target="I-D.finn-detnet-architecture"/>. 
   The main consideration is to build on art that is deployed in existing
   OT networks. 
   </t><t>
   These networks are systematically designed around a
   central controller that has a God's view on the devices, their capabilities,
   and their links to neighbors. The controller gets requests to establish flows
   with certain Traffic Specifications, and programs the necessary resources in 
   the network to support those flows. 
   </t><t>
   This design, referred to as Software Defined Networking (SDN), simplifies the
   computation and the setup of paths, and ensures a better view and an easier
   control of the network by an operator. To inherit from this art, it has been
   determined early in DetNet discussions that the work would initially focus on
   an SDN model as well.
   </t>
    <t>DetNet should thus produce the complete SDN architecture with describes
    at a high level the interaction and data models to:
    <list style="symbols">
    <t>report the topology and device capabilities to the central controller;
    </t><t>request a path setup for a new flow with particular characteristics
           over the service interface and control it through its life cycle;

    </t><t>expose the status of the path to the end devices (UNI interface)
    </t><t>provide additional reliability through redundancy, in particular with
    packet replication and elimination;
    </t><t>indicate the flows and packet sequences in-band with the flows;

    <section anchor="flow" title="Flow Characterization">
    <t>
    Deterministic forwarding can only apply on flows with well-defined
    characteristics such as periodicity and burstiness. Before a path can be
    established to serve them, the expression of those characteristics, and how
    the network can serve them, for instance in shaping and forwarding 
    operations, must be specified.

    <section anchor="pce" title="Centralized Path Computation and Installation">
    <t>
    A centralized routing model, such as provided with a PCE, enables global and
    per-flow optimizations. The model is attractive but a number of issues are 
    left to be solved. 
    In particular:
    <list style="symbols"> <t>whether and how the path computation can 
    be installed by 1) an end device or 2) a Network Management entity, 
    </t><t>
    and how
    the path is set up, either by installing state at each hop with a direct
    interaction between the forwarding device and the PCE, or along a path by
    injecting a source-routed request at one end of the path following classical
    Traffic Engineering (TE) models.    
    </t> </list>
    </t>
    </section>
    <section anchor="dc" title="Distributed Path Setup">
    <t> Whether a distributed alternative without a PCE can be valuable could
    be studied as well. Such an alternative could for instance inherit from the
    <xref target="RFC5127">Resource ReSerVation Protocol</xref> (RSVP) flows.
    But the focus of the work should be to deliver the centralized approach
    first.

	<section anchor="DupFormat" title="Duplicated data format">
	  <t>
		In some cases the duplication and elimination of packets over
		non-congruent paths is required to achieve a sufficiently high
		delivery ratio to meet application needs.  In these cases, a
		small number of packet formats and supporting protocols are
		required (preferably, just one) to serialize the packets of
		a DetNet stream at one point in the network,
		replicate them at one or more points in the network, and
		discard duplicates at one or more other points in the network,
		including perhaps the destination host.  Using an existing
		solution would be preferable to inventing a new one.

    <section title="Security Considerations">

	<t>
		Security in the context of Deterministic Networking has an added
		dimension; the time of delivery of a packet can be just as important
		as the contents of the packet, itself.  A man-in-the-middle attack,
		for example, can impose, and then systematically adjust, additional
		delays into a link, and thus disrupt or subvert a real-time
		application without having to crack any encryption methods employed.
		See <xref target="RFC7384"/> for an
		exploration of this issue in a related context.
	</t>
   <t>Typical control networks today rely on complete physical isolation to
   prevent rogue access to network resources. DetNet enables the virtualization
   of those networks over a converged IT/OT infrastructure. Doing so, DetNet
   introduces an additional risk that flows interact and interfere with one
   another as they share physical resources such as Ethernet trunks and radio
   spectrum. The requirement is that there is no possible data leak from and
   into a deterministic flow, and in a more general fashion there is no possible
   influence whatsoever from the outside on a deterministic flow. The expectation
   is that physical resources are effectively associated with a given flow at a
   given point if time. In that model, Time Sharing of physical resources 
   becomes transparent to the individual flows which have no clue whether the
   resources are used by other flows at other times.
   </t>
	<t>Security must cover:
<list style="symbols"> <t> 
       the protection of the signaling protocol
</t><t>
       the authentication and authorization of the controlling nodes
</t><t>
       the identification and shaping of the flows
</t><t>
       the isolation of flows from leakage and other influences from any 
       activity sharing physical resources.
