All,

I have been looking into BFD drafts recently and have the following basic=
 queries. Would appreciate if someone could clarify.

Firstly, the base draft states - "A session begins with the periodic, slow=
 transmission of BFD Control
packets". My interpretation of this is that during session establishment,=
 the configured DesiredMinTxInterval and the transmit interval (max of Des=
iredMinTx and RemoteMinRx) determined thereof will not be used. Instead so=
me fixed default value that would result in a slow rate so as not to hog=
 the bandwidth, should be used. That is the actual negotiated transmit int=
erval is actually used only after session establishment (UP state) for the=
 periodic transmission of BFD control packets. Is this right?

Further from the bfd for mpls draft, it looks like the LSP ping echo reque=
st is to be immediately replied by a BFD control packet without necessaril=
y being sent on the next periodic transmission. This seems unlike the base=
 draft (as quoted above - slow "periodic" transmission). Or have I got thi=
s wrong?

Cheers
Lucy

Yes.  There is more formal language in the normative part of the spec =
that defines this process more precisely.

The point of the bootstrapping process is that there is no way to send =
BFD packets before the LSP Ping arrives, so there isn't any periodic =
transmission happening.  The arrival of the Ping triggers the creation =
of the session, and the periodicity starts at that point.

Having said that, this is an implementation decision.  The fact is that =
there will always be latency between the time a system sends a Ping and =
the time it eventually sees a BFD packet from the other end.  Whether =
that latency is due to an implementation taking its time sending the =
first packet or because of interplanetary packet delays cannot be =
determined.  "Immediately" is a rather nebulous concept in networking.  =
In the cases in the BFD base spec where an "extra" packet is to be =
returned (ignoring the negotiated interval), the point is to speed the =
BFD state machine along.  For that matter, the "extra" packet could be =
lost in flight, so the correctness of the protocol can never rely on =
anything happening "immediately" or "as soon as practicable" or "post =
haste"--it's an optimization.

Hi,

What is the standard default Tx interval for BFD packets? 50ms?

Are there implementations that are going lower than this? Given that
the usual desired value for MPLS FRR should be sub 50ms, BFD timeouts
should be less than that, which would mean that BFD timeouts should be
in O(10)ms. Are there any implementations that give TX rates in
microseconds?

Thanks,
Glen

There is no "standard default" since appropriate values are highly =
dependent on the application and the context.

There are implementations that operate in the O(10) msec range.

There are implementations for which the configurations are in =
microseconds, but this has no bearing on how fast they can actually run.

In the interest of keeping our session moving along smoothly, it would be
very helpful to have a scribe for the WG session prior to the session
actually starting.  This would let us focus on meeting content rather than
WG session overhead.

Please let Dave or I know if you're willing to volunteer.

Draft minutes for BFD working group session, IETF 78, July 2010, Maastrict:

Co-Chairs:
  David Ward <dward@juniper.net>
  Jeffrey Haas <jhaas@pfrc.org>

Agenda:

  Document status

  Charter Discussion

  BFD for Multipoint Networks
      draft-katz-ward-bfd-multipoint-02.txt (expired)

  BFD Generic Cryptographic Authentication
      draft-bhatia-bfd-crypto-auth-02

  BFD for MPLS-TP (one-way bfd)
      George Swallow

Presentations are posted on the IETF 78 meeting materials site:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/78/materials.html

---

Document Status (Chairs):

Original working group charter largely accomplished with the exception of
the MIB.  The MIB is mostly done but may receive updates based on possible
new WG charter items.

We would like input from people interested in a BFD-MPLS MIB to please
contact the mailing list.  The goal is to not re-write the BFD MIB once
published to update for MPLS if necessary.

---

Charter Discussion (Chairs):

WG should take on a stewardship role on the BFD protocol and not shutdown.
This includes reserving changes to the core BFD protocol to the working
group.  Stewardship would involve providing guidance and review of BFD
application documents in other group.  This is similar to role that IDR has
for BGP protocol.

Possible new WG tasks:
  Point to Multi-Point
  BFD Generic Cryptographic Authentication
  DHCP extensions to configure BFD (not presented)

  [Addendum after last presentation, BFD for MPLS-TP.  Need to decide if
  this a profile of existing BFD or a new version.]

----------
BFD for Multipoint Networks (Dave Ward)

Dave covered p2mp draft no questions.  See presentation.

----------
BFD Generic Cryptographic Authentication (Jeff Haas for Manav and Vishwas)

Jeff presented auth draft for Manav and Vishwas.  See presentation.

Discussion:

Gregory:
Anyone implemented authentication in BFD? No
Anyone ever heard of anyone ever ask for stronger authentication?

Lou Berger:
We want all of our control protocols to have security features.

Ruediger Volk (DT):
Priorities have not caused an analysis for a need for auth/crypto on BFD.

Nabil Bitar:
Always have had requirement for authentication in BFD.  Doesn't appear to be
interoperable

Kireeti Kompella:
"To operators ... do the IGPs run with auto?"
Yes!
"Now given BFD can take down IGP ... do you trust your BFD implementation?"

RV:
Priorities and timing and availability of product across product lines

JH: The primary point of the doc is key roll over.  Concern with requiring
the MUST for SHA-2 in the draft is that it will make people wanting to
implement rollover but not SHA-2 non-compliant.  Causes problems with
Requests for Proposals (RFPs).

Shane Amante:
The "good enough" to get things going. There is low order security
techniques, ACLs, TTL check, etc.. These are good enough that it can be
deployed in the network. SHA-2 is overkill for what is largely needed. Key
roll over is not strictly a requirement but, a Nice To Have.

Nabil:
This is also a Chicken and egg problem ... BFD solves lack of failure
notification at lower layer so BFD is only mechanism. Therefore use
what you have. From a security point of view, people want him to run
everything over IPsec. P2P or P2MP isn't the issue.  It is Multi-hop  BFD
that probably needs crypto first.

Room poll to adopt this draft as a WG item:
  Adopt? 6
  Any objections? 1

Question to the room from Jeff:
  Current draft has SHA-2 as a MUST, change to SHOULD? 3
  Leave as MUST? 1

Final comment from Gregory: Security ADs probably won't approve the draft
without a MUST.

----------

BFD for MPLS-TP (George Swallow):

Presented Simplified BFD procedures for bi-dir LSPs for MPLS
OAM.  See presentation.

Early question:
In BFD WG or MPLS?

Dave Ward:
TP OAM requirements state auth must be possible.

Rob Reneson:
Why change the slow start refresh mechanism from what it is in the draft?
Why not leave it?

George Swallow:
So, base spec is changing even if minor

Jeff Haas:
If a profile requires changes to the state machine and other behaviors with
BFD v1, will you address how to make it interoperable?

Dave Ward:
Adrian, has this gone through the MPLS change process?

Adrian:
We've lost track if one of those requirements has actually followed the MPLS
change process.  Push for technical change.

Dave Ward/Jeff Haas:
Can we make this backward compatible?

Jeff Haas: To solve Poll/Final (P/F) issue send diag if see P/F

George Swallow:
P/F has issues of not timing out during init state, which is a change from
BFD v1.

Dave Allan:
In current version, we had means of identifying independent mode (via tx
rate of 0)

DW:
See P2MP for overloading semantics of certain values

Adrian:
How about adding source?

Room poll to adopt work on BFD for MPLS-TP as a WG item:
  Adopt? 8
  Objections? 2
