RSVP-TE Signaling Extension for Explicit Control of LSP Boundary in A
GMPLS-Based Multi-Region and Multi-Layer Networks (MRN/MLN)
draft-fuxh-ccamp-boundary-explicit-control-ext-02
Abstract
[RFC5212] defines a Multi-Region and Multi-Layer Networks (MRN/MLN).
[RFC4206] introduces a region boundary determination algorithm and a
Hierarchy LSP (H-LSP) creation method. However, in some scenarios,
some attributes have to be attached with the boundary nodes in order
to explicit control the hierarchy LSP creation. This document
extends GMPLS signaling protocol for the requirement of explicit
control the hierarchy LSP creation.

Internet-Draft RSVP-TE for LSP Boundary Control March 2011
1. Introduction
[RFC5212] defines a Multi-Region and Multi-Layer Networks (MRN/MLN).
[RFC4206] introduces a region boundary determination algorithm and a
Hierarchy LSP (H-LSP) creation method. However, in some scenarios,
some attributes have to be attached with the boundary nodes in order
to explicitly control the hierarchy LSP creation. This document
extends GMPLS signaling protocol for the requirement of explicit
control the hierarchy LSP creation.
1.1. 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 [RFC2119].
2. Explicit Route Boundary Object (ERBO)
In order to explicitly control hierarchy LSP creation, this document
introduce a new object (ERBO-Explicit Route Boundary Object) carried
in Path message. The format of ERBO object is the same as ERO. It
looks more like the SERO defined in rfc4873.
One or more ERBOs may be carried in Path message. Multiple ERBOs
could support cascading of FA easy. An ERBO must contain at least
two subobjects. The first and final one indicate the source and sink
node of a FA-LSP or Composite Link. Other subobjects may be inserted
into ERBO between source and sink node to indicates how to select the
FA/Component Link or create them.
2.1. Switching Capability subobject
A new subobject, called the switching capability subobject, is
defined for use in the ERBO. The format of the switching capability
subobject is defined as follows:
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

o Switching Capability (SC): Indicates which corresponding server
layer should be triggered by the boundary node. The value of
switching capability is the same as the one in [RFC3471].

A new subobject, called the encoding type subobject, is defined for
use in the ERBO. The format of the encoding type subobject is

(e.g., SDH/SONET or G.709 in TDM) should be triggered. It is the
same as the one in [RFC3471].

2.5. Signaling Procedure
In order to signal an end-to-end LSP across multi layer, the LSP
source node sends the RSVP-TE PATH message with ERO which indicates
LSP route and ERBO which indicates the LSP route boundary. The first
and final address of node in ERBO SHOULD also be listed in the ERO.
This ensures that they are along the LSP path. When a interim node
receives a PATH message, it will check ERBO to see if it is the layer
boundary node. If a interim node isn't a layer boundary, it will
process the PATH message as the normal one of single layer LSP. If a
interim node finds its address is in ERBO, it is a layer boundary
node. So it will directly extract another boundary egress node and
other detail subobject infomration (e.g., Latency) from ERBO. If it
is necessary, it will also extract the server layer/sub-layer routing
information from ERO based on a pair of boundary node. Then the
layer boundary node holds the PATH message and selects or creates a
server layer/sub-layer LSP based on the detailed information of
subobject carried in ERBO.
