Hi

The bfd drafts draft-katz-ward-bfd-01.txt and
draft-katz-ward-bfd-v4v6-1hop-00.txt have both expired. Are there
plans to unexpire them soon?

Thanks...

kaarthik

Folks-

 There has been some interest in having a more formal home for the BFD work, so
 we're creating a (hopefully) very focused and short-lived WG for it. Below is
 the proposed WG charter that Daves and I have crafted. Please read and comment.

 Also note that we are looking for the second co-chair. If you would like
 to volunteer and have enough cycles to help, please send me an e-mail.

Description of Working Group:

The BFD Working Group is chartered to specify a protocol for bidirectional
forwarding detection (BFD), as well as extensions to be used within the scope of
BFD and IP routing, in a way that will encourage multiple, inter-operable vendor
implementations.

BFD is a protocol intended to detect faults in the bidirectional path between
two forwarding engines, including interfaces, data link(s), and to the extent
possible the forwarding engines themselves, with potentially very low latency.
It operates independently of media, data protocols, and routing protocols. An
additional goal is to provide a single mechanism that can be used for liveness
detection over any media, at any protocol layer, with a wide range of detection
times and overhead, to avoid a proliferation of different methods.

Important characteristics of BFD include:

  - Simple, fixed-field encoding to facilitate implementations in hardware

  - Independence of the data protocol being forwarded between two systems.
    BFD packets are carried as the payload of whatever encapsulating protocol
    is appropriate for the medium and network.

  - Path independence: BFD can provide failure detection on any kind of path
    between systems, including direct physical links, virtual circuits, tunnels,
    MPLS LSPs, multihop routed paths, and unidirectional links (so long
    as there is some return path, of course.)

  - Ability to be bootstrapped by any other protocol that automatically forms
    peer, neighbor or adjacency relationships to seed BFD endpoint discovery.

At this time the WG is chartered to complete the following work items
(additional items will require rechartering):

1. Develop the base BFD protocol specification and submit it to the IESG
    for publication as a Proposed Standard

2. Document BFD encapsulation and usage profile for single-hop IPv4 and IPv6
    adjacencies and submit the specification to the IESG for publication as
    a Proposed Standard.

3. Document BFD encapsulation and usage profile over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 and
    Ethernet_II) and submit the specification to the IESG for publication as a
    Proposed Standard.

4. Document BFD encapsulation and usage profile for MPLS LSPs and submit
    the specification to the IESG for publication as a Proposed Standard.

5. Develop the MIB module for BFD and submit it to the IESG for publication
    as a Proposed Standard.


Goals and Milestones:

Aug 04    Submit the base protocol specification to the IESG to be considered
           as a Proposed Standard.

Aug 04    Submit BFD encapsulation and usage profile for single-hop 
IPv4 and IPv6
           adjacencies to the IESG to be considered as a Proposed Standard

Nov 04    Submit BFD encapsulation and usage profile for Ethernet to the
           IESG to be considered as a Proposed Standard

Aug 04    Submit BFD encapsulation and usage profile for MPLS LSPs to the
           IESG to be considered as a Proposed Standard

Nov 04    Submit BFD MIB to the IESG to be considered as Proposed Standard.

This takes no stance on which protocols this would be run.  I.e., we 
must specify how to configure the usage for adjacencies in a certain 
protocol.  (Like, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, IS-IS, eBGP, ....)

Is this worth spelling out?

I'm not sure how this relates to the forming of adjacencies.  
Certainly, it would be very useful to run just one instance of BFD 
over Ethernet -- so that in case you'd run multiple protocols over the 
same media, you need only one set of hello mechanisms -- but I don't 
know how this relates to the adjancency establishment and the rest of 
the BFD framework.  Maybe need a bit of clarifying here.

As long as a protocol or application can bootstrap a BFD
session over IP, there should be no limitation on which protocols can be
run. If there are specific bootstrapping details, that can help in
inter-operability they should be spelled out. I am assuming that 'usage
profile' implies that..

Again it seems that 'usage profile' captures the above..

Right.

But as you say, there are likely some details to bootstrapping which 
should be spelled out.

The point is, do we want to state in charter which protocols (at 
least) should have usage profiles?  Do we leave it empty?  Do we rule 
out some protocols from usage profiles?

Except that protocols typically do not exchange adjcacencies between
Ethernet addresses -- so this appears to be independent of the
adjacency forming process.

Or are you saying, "usage profile for BFD over Ethernet between
manually configured end-points" ?

Imho this is a detail that can be worked out when the WG discusses the BFD
over IPv4 document. Bootstrapping details can be added where they seem
necessary. Don't think the charter needs to spell it out..

There is no assumption here that IP protocols are running over the
Ethernet links. BFD over ethernet can be used between a router and an
ethernet switch, for example.

I am saying that bootstrapping mechanims are application specific, whether
for BFD for IPv4, ethernet etc. They should certainly be spelled out when
needed and it can be done as part of completing the encap/usage profile
spec..

Should we include BFD over multi-hop IPv4/IPv6 adjacencies (eg. IP/GRE
tunnels) in the charter at this point ?

Should we include BFD over multi-hop IPv4/IPv6 adjacencies (eg. IP/GRE
tunnels) in the charter at this point ?

	I think we need to be careful because other 
WGs are already taking this on. For example,
PWE3's VCCV already includes a BFD mode over pseudo-wires.
I don't think we want to take that on in the BFD WG.  Similarly
with BFD/MPLS, I think that is something to handle in MPLS. We
might however, want to think about guidance/guidelines for such
activities in other WGs.

rahul, do you think we have to consider this (1) at the same level, or 
(2) taking into account this aspect while devicing first the single-hop case

L3VPN/L2VPN approaches today include BGP and over time the following 
arose (see complete e-mail on the topic (*): "Appropriate level of 
technical review by the protocol-specific WGs needs to be ensured, 
regardless of whether extensions to a given protocol are defined in a 
separate document or not." so i worry a bit about the terms "are already 
taking this on"

and why those guidance/guidelines wouldn't come from the mpls wg to the 
bfd wg in terms of the "oam requirement/framework" umbrella documents 
(for the parts that are applicable in the present context) and that are 
currently ongoing at the mpls wg ?

rahul, do you think we have to consider this (1) at the same level, or 
(2) taking into account this aspect while devicing first the single-hop
case

L3VPN/L2VPN approaches today include BGP and over time the following 
arose (see complete e-mail on the topic (*): "Appropriate level of 
technical review by the protocol-specific WGs needs to be ensured, 
regardless of whether extensions to a given protocol are defined in a 
separate document or not." so i worry a bit about the terms "are already

taking this on"

and why those guidance/guidelines wouldn't come from the mpls wg to the 
bfd wg in terms of the "oam requirement/framework" umbrella documents 
(for the parts that are applicable in the present context) and that are 
currently ongoing at the mpls wg ?
	
	That is what I was getting at in terms of "guidance". Guidance 
can be bi-directional. *)

I am not aware of any other WG taking on BFD over IP tunnels.

That is for PWs, not PSN IP/GRE tunnels.

Seems like a more difficult problem to me.  If we are going to do, at 
least work on it after we've finished what else (except maybe the MIB) 
on our plate...

You said "over IPv4" but you meant "over IP", I hope.  Any work that 
would start with only IPv4 would be completely inappropriate.

IMHO, this is probably an important point.  If we don't know any
protocols we'd like to rule out right now, they should be listed
there.  On the other hand, listing the protocols which we should AT
LEAST work on would be equally useful; for example, the list could be
at least: IS-IS (both IPv4 and IPv6), OSPFv2, OSPFv3, eBGP, {static
routes}.

That would give the reader of the charter a better picture of what 
we're (at least) trying to solve.

(OK; I mistunderstood this.  I think the charter needs to be more 
specific what the action item means in practice.)

Sorry for misunderstanding.  But again, as above, it would be 
appropriate to describe this context.  Which adjacency-forming 
protocol are you running between a router and switch which would be 
used to trigger these BFD adjacencies?  If you don't configure these 
manually, that's a key point here.

Yep -- these certainly will be worked at, but trying to figure out 
what _at least_ is in scope would be highly useful -- rather than 
leaving this unspecified, blank.

I'm having trouble parsing this.  Did you mean "If we know any protocols =
..."?

If we're going to have a list of protocols we're going to give =
guidelines to, I'd like to see "static routes" taken out of parenthesis. =
 We seem to have a very router-to-router focus on the uses of BFD here, =
but it's also very useful for high-availability host systems to monitor =
interface and first hop router status.  In these cases the routers =
usually have static routes to the hosts, since the hosts tend to not run =
routing protocols.

	Exactly. I would say that it should be included if at all
	possible. In a few of the carriers/ISPs I've worked at in
	the past I would have loved to have the functionality for

	Yep, and even in those scenarios BFD can make sense.

Yes, static routes has a lot of nice areas of applicability.  The
reason why I put it in parentheses was because it is not an
"adjancency" being formed as such.  So if it is to be included, some
wiggling around in the charter could be useful.

FWIW, another good for static routes is that you would not need to run
a routing protocol between the ISP and customer if you did this for
redundancy.  Just set up two static routes, with two physical links
(one set of routes with lower preference), and if BFD notices the
primary link goes down, it's taken down and you start to use the less
preferred one automatically.  (Today this doesn't work on media which
don't provide end-to-end link state notifications to the routers, like
Ethernets.)

Very simple in very simple multi-connection scenarios.  No need for
OSPF or BGP mess in a scenario where you don't need it.

I am not aware of any other WG taking on BFD over IP tunnels.

That is for PWs, not PSN IP/GRE tunnels.

	Can't the PSN be IP/GRE tunnels?  I do get
your point, but my point was also that we might
want to try to coordinate this with other WGs
over which BFD is run, instead of doing it here, if 
possible.  Of course, if we cannot find one, then
we should do it here.

Hi Pekka,

Yes, that static route application is exactly what I meant.

Folks-

 A couple of comments on this thread:

  1. I think adding some explanatory text listing the "client" protocols to
     the work item descriptions wouldn't hurt.

  2. An interesting question is how IS-IS should be covered. On the one
     hand, IS-IS does not use IP encapsulation for its packets and works
     directly over L2 (Ethernet in our case). On the other hand, I see at
     least two arguments in favor of covering IS-IS using BFD over IP:

       - IP liveness detection. Debugging networks where an IS-IS adjacency
         is up, but the line card gave up on IP for some reason is not fun,
         and adding some IP awareness at this level to IS-IS seems beneficial.
         (A question for further study is what to do when IS-IS is used for
         both v4 and v6.)

       - Media independence. Instead of defining BFD over every possible L2
         encapsulation, simply use IP.

     Maybe Daves could add something here... I remember seeing an IS-IS section
     in the bfd-v4v6 document.

  3. Regarding the question of static routes and their applicability to the
     host-router scenarios. While I don't have a problem with using BFD for
     static route's next hop liveness detection, I don't believe we should be
     putting the host-router scenarios in the charter. This brings a set of
     completely different security aspects into play, and they are likely
     to require different mechanisms than those suitable for router-to-router
     protocols (see SEND WG). I suggest we focus on the router-router case
     where we (the RTG area) are experts, and if people want to use the same
     mechanisms for the host-router case, understanding the risks, etc.--it's
     their responsibility.

Rahul,

> Should we include BFD over multi-hop IPv4/IPv6 adjacencies (eg. IP/GRE
> tunnels) in the charter at this point ?

I see two potential cases for multi-hop BFD operations:

 1. IP/GRE tunnels you mention

 2. Multiphop protocol adjacencies (e.g. OSPF VLs, iBGP)

Assuming you mean 1. above, what do you think should be specified given that
tunnels could be considered as logical links from the BFD perspective?
(I'm just trying to understand the scope of related work.)

Thanks.

Alex

How about addressing multi-hop BFD operations for iBGP (and eBGP
multihop)? Is there a specific reason why multi-hop for iBGP and OSPF
VLs are not considered? (I am a little late in this game, so I dont
know all the issues yet; just trying a getting a feel for things
here).

Alex,

 ] Rahul,
 ] 
 ] > Should we include BFD over multi-hop IPv4/IPv6 adjacencies (eg. IP/GRE
 ] > tunnels) in the charter at this point ?
 ] 
 ] I see two potential cases for multi-hop BFD operations:
 ] 
 ]  1. IP/GRE tunnels you mention
 ] 
 ]  2. Multiphop protocol adjacencies (e.g. OSPF VLs, iBGP)
 ] 

I don't see much benefit to bring protocol multihop adjacencies into
BFD, the tunnels in between can be vulnerable to any routing 
or link problems, to detect the state too fast may not be good. But
if we don't want too fast reaction on those tunnels, protocols themselves
already have 'keepalives' to handle that.

thanks.

 ] tunnels could be considered as logical links from the BFD perspective?
 ] (I'm just trying to understand the scope of related work.)

Aside from the crawl-before-you-walk aspect, the security issue has to 
be dealt with before multihop can be used.

Yes, running BFD over tunnels which are realized as virtual interfaces 
falls out of the one-hop draft.  However, there may be further 
specification desired.  For example, the demand mode stuff was put in 
to match the functionality of what was being proposed for IPsec, where 
high fan-in to a single box was apparently felt to be troublesome 
enough to avoid periodic packet transmission.

Of course, you can stand this argument on its head and say that if you 
have very high real (or more likely channelized) interface counts, you 
may want to use demand mode anyhow.

All this dances around how one should specify the applications of BFD, 
and I'm not too clear on the best way to do that.

Keep in mind that the stated purpose of BFD is to demonstrate data 
protocol liveness.  In some sense the fact that it can be used to 
trigger routing protocol failover is coincidental.

If implemented in the forwarding plane, it can be used in conjunction 
with Graceless Restart to decide whether to declare a fractured 
topology in the IGP.

The interaction with IS-IS is interesting in a number of ways, the 
primary being that it supports multiple network protocols.  The latest 
(almost published) draft addresses this by saying that in the case of 
congruent topologies a BFD failure should cause adjacency teardown, 
whereas in the case of independent topologies the edge corresponding to 
the failing protocol should be removed from the graph.

The purpose of running BFD over L2 is to do datalink liveness, talking 
to switches.  One pragmatic application is to approximate subnet 
reachability by having the router chatting BFD with the switch (and no 
longer announcing the subnet in the IGP when the BFD session goes 
down.)  It could also be used as a liveness protocol in the switching 
world, but that's even further outside the WG scope, methinks.

I was implying 1. And as you mention from a BFD perspective most of the
details are same as the single hop IP case and the single hop IP
draft will cover most of it. Tunnel encap will
be used: (IP or IP + GRE or IP + IPSec) to encapsulate BFD packets.
Bootstrapping will be based on tunnel configuration or maybe discovering a tunnel
endpoint: very much application specific. So the scope of the work is
probably quite small. I wanted to ensure that it alligns with the charter now or
at some point in the future.

The only thing that may require looking at further is BFD for IPsec...

Thanks,
rahul

	One area doing BFD for L2 potentially collides with is ongoing 
work the IEEE. In particular, there is a group working on OAM

Yes, we're hoping BFD survives the collision.  ;-)  Dward has moles in 
the IEEE; perhaps he can fill us in as to how things are going there.

Baited out of my cave .....

Well, things are not progressing very quickly. The BFDoE draft is coming
together but, it is not talking w/ the 802.3ah (EFM folks that
are working on enet OAM) group yet. The EFM OAM folks are working on
a slow protocol that is to accomplish a lot more than simple failure 
detection. Also, they are working to change PHYs, which we are not.

Hoping that we can all get along :-)

Just to make sure it's clear -- static routes are very much applicable
to router-router scenarios as well, practically between administrative
domains (or possibly stub networks).  Such links are typically used in
a point-to-point fashion (i.e., even if the media was not p-t-p, there
are only two boxes on the link).

The difference with router-host scenarios is that there the link is 
typically shared between the others, and is considered less secure.

Hi

The BFD draft says in the "IPR Notice" section that IETF has been
notified of a IPR claimed in the draft, but this notice is missing in
the "IETF Page of Intellectual Property Rights Notices" at
http://www.ietf.org/ipr.html. Can we get more information from the
authors on the IPR implications for BFD? Thanks.
