Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi All,
I'm trying to implement BFD tor monitor IPV4/IPv6 peers. I have a general
question.

If BFD receives a first session establishment packet from a peer but no
session matches what is the normal course of action in that case?. RFC 5880
says that you can either ignore the packet or create a new session. What is
the general handling of such a situation in the industry? do most of the
vendors respond to such a packet and create a BFD session? even though no
application in the system want to monitor peer that is requesting a
session?. Appreciate your help.

Thanks
-Lokesh.

Hi All,
Is there any open source implementation of BFD for routing protocols other
than BFD patch for quagga-0.99.9 and kbfd?  I want the one with echo
support which quagga patch and kbfd dont provide. Any help greatly
appreciated.

Hello Lokesh,

I don't think i have come across such an implementation. In my experience,
such packets are ignored.

In MPLS, there is a mechanism known as Bootstrapping, through which BFD
Session establishes based on a Bootstrap ping request sent by the peer. For
more details refer
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5884

Thanks,
Binny

Hello Lokesh,

I agree with Binny. Best course of action is to ignore such packets at earl=
iest ingress path, to avoid unnecessary resources taken up on the local nod=
e. Technically you could dynamically create a corresponding session based o=
n incoming BFD packets, but it could become a vulnerability unless allowanc=
e is scoped and good amount of validations are performed. Even so, without =
any "action" attached to dynamically created BFD session on local node, it'=
s basically doing a "favor" to requesting node. These complexity additions =
are avoided if both sides are required to be configured, thus drop such pac=
kets.

5884 creates session based on LSP echo request, so this one is a bit differ=
ent.

Regards,
Nobo

Hello Lokesh,

I don't think i have come across such an implementation. In my experience, =
such packets are ignored.

In MPLS, there is a mechanism known as Bootstrapping, through which BFD Ses=
sion establishes based on a Bootstrap ping request sent by the peer. For mo=
re details refer
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5884

Thanks,
Binny

Hi All,
I'm trying to implement BFD tor monitor IPV4/IPv6 peers. I have a general q=

If BFD receives a first session establishment packet from a peer but no ses=

ys that you can either ignore the packet or create a new session. What is t=
he general handling of such a situation in the industry? do most of the ven=

ppreciate your help.

Is there any rare situation/application where you have do this favour to

 Binny. Best course of action is to ignore such packets at earliest ingress=
 path, to avoid unnecessary resources taken up on the local
 node. Technically you could dynamically create a corresponding session bas=
ed on incoming BFD packets, but it could become a vulnerability unless allo=

Hi All,
I would like know if there are routing applications that use demand mode
and echo mode usually.
I understand that asynchronous mode is used by most of the applications.
I'm newbie to BFD, sorry if these questions sound too naive. Appreciate
answers.

Regards
-Lokesh.

Hi Lokesh,

I think that should more depend on how your system is specified to work. In
case in the network you would need to do it that way as per what the
Operator wants AND if your device OEM agrees to do it, only then its
needed.

But if your equipment system engineering needs BFD session to start only
when your operator manually configures it, then you can stop honoring such
BFD packets whose session entry does not exist with you.

Regards,
Binny,
*Aricent Group.*

It would most likely happen due to a misconfiguration where the operator ha=
s only configured one end of a desired (nor not deleted the other end of a =
no longer desired) BFD session.  The configured end will keep sending BFD p=
ackets to init but this should be 1 per second or less, and perhaps exponen=
tial back off is implemented, though this is not required (and barely menti=
oned) in the spec.

Hello Lokesh,

I don't think i have come across such an implementation. In my experience, =
such packets are ignored.

In MPLS, there is a mechanism known as Bootstrapping, through which BFD Ses=
sion establishes based on a Bootstrap ping request sent by the peer. For mo=
re details refer
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5884

Thanks,

I'm trying to implement BFD tor monitor IPV4/IPv6 peers. I have a general q=
uestion.<br>
<br>
If BFD receives a first session establishment packet from a peer but no ses=
sion matches what is the normal course of action in that case?. RFC 5880 sa=
ys that you can either ignore the packet or create a new session. What is t=
he general handling of such a situation
 in the industry? do most of the vendors respond to such a packet and creat=
e a BFD session? even though no application in the system want to monitor p=
eer that is requesting a session?. Appreciate your help.

Hello BFD experts,

FYI, we have updated the draft draft-mmm-bfd-on-lags to version 7. The =
changes are:

* replace the "to-be-assigned" text parts with the UDP port and Ethernet =
MAC meanwhile assigned by IANA.

* section 2.3, the use of the MAC learned from peer packets is now =
optional, i.e. MAY, instead of being a SHOULD. This keeps the basic =
protocol simple (no MAC change, always using the dedicated MAC), a =
lesson we learned from interoperability testing being done.

* section 3.1, we have added the "standby" in addition to "distributed" =
as another port state that triggers the start/removal of the BFD =
session. This keeps the overall logic simpler in case of active/standby =
scenarios.


As always, comments are welcome :-)


Thanks & Regards,
Marc

> Abstract:
>   This document proposes a mechanism to run BFD on Link Aggregation
>   Group (LAG) interfaces.  It does so by running an independent
>   Asynchronous mode BFD session on every LAG member link.
>=20
>   This mechanism allows the verification of member link continuity,
>   either in combination with, or in absence of, LACP.  It provides a
>   shorter detection time than what LACP offers.  The continuity check
>   can also cover elements of layer 3 bidirectional forwarding.
>=20
>   This mechanism utilizes a well-known UDP port distinct from that of
>   single-hop BFD over IP.  This new UDP port removes the ambiguity of
>   BFD over LAG packets from BFD over single-hop IP.

	Title           : BFD Generic Cryptographic Authentication
	Author(s)       : Manav Bhatia
                          Vishwas Manral
                          Dacheng Zhang

	Pages           : 12
	Date            : 2013-04-18

Abstract:
   This document proposes an extension to Bidirectional Forwarding
   Detection (BFD) to allow the use of arbitary cryptographic
   authentication algorithms in addition to the already-documented
   authentication schemes described in the base specification.  This
   document adds the basic infrastructure that is required for
   supporting algorithm and key agility for BFD.

	Title           : Authenticating BFD using HMAC-SHA-2 procedures
	Author(s)       : Dacheng Zhang

	Pages           : 9
	Date            : 2013-04-18

Abstract:
   This document describes the mechanism to authenticate Bidirectional
   Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol packets using Hashed Message
   Authentication Mode (HMAC) with the SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
   algorithms.  The described mechanism uses the Generic Cryptographic
   Authentication and Generic Meticulous Cryptographic Authentication
   sections to carry the authentication data.  This document updates,
   but does not supercede, the cryptographic authentication mechanism
   specified in RFC 5880.

We are researchers from different parts of the world and conducted a study on  
the world’s biggest bogus computer science conference WORLDCOMP 
( http://sites.google.com/site/worlddump1 ) organized by Prof. Hamid Arabnia 
from University of Georgia, USA.


We submitted a fake paper to WORLDCOMP 2011 and again (the same paper 
with a modified title) to WORLDCOMP 2012. This paper had numerous 
fundamental mistakes. Sample statements from that paper include: 

(1). Binary logic is fuzzy logic and vice versa
(2). Pascal developed fuzzy logic
(3). Object oriented languages do not exhibit any polymorphism or inheritance
(4). TCP and IP are synonyms and are part of OSI model 
(5). Distributed systems deal with only one computer
(6). Laptop is an example for a super computer
(7). Operating system is an example for computer hardware


Also, our paper did not express any conceptual meaning.  However, it 
was accepted both the times without any modifications (and without 
any reviews) and we were invited to submit the final paper and a 
payment of $500+ fee to present the paper. We decided to use the 
fee for better purposes than making Prof. Hamid Arabnia (Chairman 
of WORLDCOMP) rich. After that, we received few reminders from 
WORLDCOMP to pay the fee but we never responded. 


We MUST say that you should look at the above website if you have any thoughts 
to submit a paper to WORLDCOMP.  DBLP and other indexing agencies have stopped 
indexing WORLDCOMP’s proceedings since 2011 due to its fakeness. See 
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/conf/icai/index.html for of one of the 
conferences of WORLDCOMP and notice that there is no listing after 2010. See Section 2 of
http://sites.google.com/site/dumpconf for comments from well-known researchers 
about WORLDCOMP. 


The status of your WORLDCOMP papers can be changed from scientific
to other (i.e., junk or non-technical) at any time. Better not to have a paper than 
having it in WORLDCOMP and spoil the resume and peace of mind forever!


Our study revealed that WORLDCOMP is a money making business, 
using University of Georgia mask, for Prof. Hamid Arabnia. He is throwing 
out a small chunk of that money (around 20 dollars per paper published 
in WORLDCOMP’s proceedings) to his puppet (Mr. Ashu Solo or A.M.G. Solo) 
who publicizes WORLDCOMP and also defends it at various forums, using 
fake/anonymous names. The puppet uses fake names and defames other conferences
to divert traffic to WORLDCOMP. He also makes anonymous phone calls and tries to 
threaten the critiques of WORLDCOMP (See Item 7 of Section 5 of above website). 
That is, the puppet does all his best to get a maximum number of papers published 
at WORLDCOMP to get more money into his (and Prof. Hamid Arabnia’s) pockets. 


Monte Carlo Resort (the venue of WORLDCOMP for more than 10 years, until 2012) has 
refused to provide the venue for WORLDCOMP’13 because of the fears of their image 
being tarnished due to WORLDCOMP’s fraudulent activities. That is why WORLDCOMP’13 
is taking place at a different resort. WORLDCOMP will not be held after 2013. 


The draft paper submission deadline is over but still there are no committee 
members, no reviewers, and there is no conference Chairman. The only contact 
details available on WORLDCOMP’s website is just an email address! 

Let us make a direct request to Prof. Hamid arabnia: publish all reviews for 
all the papers (after blocking identifiable details) since 2000 conference. Reveal 
the names and affiliations of all the reviewers (for each year) and how many 
papers each reviewer had reviewed on average. We also request him to look at 
the Open Challenge (Section 6) at https://sites.google.com/site/moneycomp1 


Sorry for posting to multiple lists. Spreading the word is the only way to stop 
this bogus conference. Please forward this message to other mailing lists and people. 


We are shocked with Prof. Hamid Arabnia and his puppet’s activities
