Abstract:
   This document defines a simplified mechanism to use Bidirectional
   Forwarding Detection (BFD) with large portions of negotiation aspects
   eliminated, thus providing benefits such as quick provisioning as
   well as improved control and flexibility to network nodes initiating
   the path monitoring.

   This document updates RFC5880.

Hello BFD WG,

Authors have published new versions of s-bfd-base and s-bfd-ip documents (L=
inks & diffs are listed below).

In these versions:
- Restructured the documents so that s-bfd-base describes BFD header mechan=
ics and s-bfd-ip describes MPLS/IP/UDP mechanics.
- Incorporated comments received from folks on the list (thanks guys!), and=
 special thanks for Marc Binderberger and Greg Mirsky for providing large s=
et of comments.
- Added texts for S-BFD Echo function. Note that mechanism are described in=
 s-bfd-base and port allocation is made in s-bfd-ip, but the the use case a=
uthors have in mind is Segment Routing.

Authors are planning to:
- Request for WG adoption poll for s-bfd-ip document in a week or two.
- Start working on s-bfd-sr (Segment Routing) document as the next priority=
.

Progressing s-bfd-base and s-bfd-ip documents will allow for basic S-BFD im=
plementations via configuring remote discriminators on the IP and the MPLS =
data planes.
Progressing ISIS/OSPF S-BFD discriminator advertisement documents (links to=
 these also listed below) will allow for S-BFD implementations without manu=
ally configuring remote discriminators.
Progressing s-bfd-sr document will allow for S-BFD implementations (includi=
ng echo) on the Segment Routing technology.

And to accomplish above, we need your help to review the documents and prov=
ide comments. Note that we welcome comments in all forms, including simple =
positive comments like "revisions look good!" :)

Hello BFD WG,

Recent S-BFD document restructure has pushed the UDP port assignment from d=
raft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base to draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-ip. Due to this, th=
e early port allocation request we had made became invalid (i.e. UDP port i=
s now being requested from an individual document).

Thus we have officially cancelled the early port allocation request.

Here's the plan going forward.

Step one:
- draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-ip becomes a WG document.
- the WG have a consensus that BOTH draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base to draft-a=
kiya-bfd-seamless-ip are technically (and structurally) solid.

Step two:
We will go with "Expert Review" to request the UDP port for S-BFD.

Thanks!

-Nobo

WG,

I wanted to follow up and report some status of this document that I presen=
ted in Toronto.   (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-snyder-bfd-proxy-connec=
tions-monitored-links-00 )



As you may recall, due to time constraints there was not time to field any =
questions related to the document.  I did also present this same paper to t=
he MANET group and it caused quite a bit of discussion there.  Probably bec=
ause there was another document in the same space as requiring some changes=
 for satellite market.  I believe it was generally considered a pretty nove=
l approach to solving the problem and used BFD to solve a new use case that=
 DLEP wasn't as optimized for.  It started a discussion about using BFD "un=
derneath" of DLEP as well.  It could be a useful way to recognizing/speedin=
g up L3 state notification in the radio/router link as well as through othe=
r L2 networks.  I am planning on studying DLEP further and attempting a pro=
of of concept of DLEP in our radio gear as well as continuing with the BFD =
proxy approach.



As for how it relates specifically to BFD I think the use case described in=
 #4 in the following document ( http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-zhang=
-bfd-new-use-cases/?include_text=3D1 ) could also be solved via the proxy i=
dea put forth in this paper.



With all this in mind, the authors current plan is to revise this document =
as a generic BFD proxy framework.  While we tried to keep it more generic, =
we feel the satellite focus as it's currently written will hamper it's viab=
ility and interest.  With this plan in mind, we would be happy to answer an=
y comments that may have been on your mind and/or generally get feedback to=
 the interest in this approach.


Thanks,

Brian

Hi Brian,


I think a generic BFD proxy framework document will be helpful. It can cove=
r those use cases that can be handled by the proxy method. Requirements and=
 guidelines can be developed therein.

Thanks,
Mingui

Subject: Status of bfd proxy document from IETF 90.

WG,

I wanted to follow up and report some status of this document that I presen=
ted in Toronto.   (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-snyder-bfd-proxy-connec=
tions-monitored-links-00 )



As you may recall, due to time constraints there was not time to field any =
questions related to the document.  I did also present this same paper to t=
he MANET group and it caused quite a bit of discussion there.  Probably bec=
ause there was another document in the same space as requiring some changes=
 for satellite market.  I believe it was generally considered a pretty nove=
l approach to solving the problem and used BFD to solve a new use case that=
 DLEP wasn't as optimized for.  It started a discussion about using BFD "un=
derneath" of DLEP as well.  It could be a useful way to recognizing/speedin=
g up L3 state notification in the radio/router link as well as through othe=
r L2 networks.  I am planning on studying DLEP further and attempting a pro=
of of concept of DLEP in our radio gear as well as continuing with the BFD =
proxy approach.



As for how it relates specifically to BFD I think the use case described in=
 #4 in the following document ( http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-zhang=
-bfd-new-use-cases/?include_text=3D1 ) could also be solved via the proxy i=
dea put forth in this paper.



With all this in mind, the authors current plan is to revise this document =
as a generic BFD proxy framework.  While we tried to keep it more generic, =
we feel the satellite focus as it's currently written will hamper it's viab=
ility and interest.  With this plan in mind, we would be happy to answer an=
y comments that may have been on your mind and/or generally get feedback to=
 the interest in this approach.


Thanks,

Brian

Hello,

If you considered that Jeff helped find the line between "exact" and
"pedantic" then you may rest assured that I have crossed it (in one
direction or the other).

This is my usual AD review of your document to advance the publication
request. It is a short document (Hooray!) and is perfectly clear.
Nevertheless, I have picked a few holes for style and clarity. Please
feel free to dispute these points with me if you like. Until then, or
until I see a revised version of the document, I have placed the I-D
in "Revised I-D Needed" state.

Thanks for your work,
Adrian

It seems to me that the main benefit in this work is to improve the 
chances of interoperability between hardware implementations that need
to select a hard-wired subset of interval values at build time.  There
are two points arising from this:

- You should recommend that implementations that can do so, should 
  support a superset of the values identified here, and suggest that
  implementations try to support a considerably more flexible set of
  values to facilitate operator control of the responsiveness and
  scalability of BFD.

- You should observe that not all implementations of BFD are intended
  to interoperate. This may be particularly true for certain hardware
  implementations (e.g., BFD for MPLS-TP and BFD for Ethernet LAG).
  This *might* have an impact on whether every implementation has to
  support every value in the set. Whether or not is does have an impact
  could usefully be commented in the document.

---

The Abstract might benefit from one line saying what an "interval value"
is. Something like,

   "BFD requires that messages are transmitted at well-known intervals
    and provides a way to negotiate the interval used by BFD peers."

---

I only see one use of RFC 2119 language. Section 3 has 

   In technical terms the requirement is as follows: a BFD
   implementation SHOULD support all values in the set of Common
   interval values which are equal to or larger than the fastest, i.e.
   lowest, interval the particular BFD implementation supports.

Maybe you don't actually need uppercase "SHOULD" and then you could 
drop the "Requirements Language" paragraph. 

---

Section 1

   number of BFD sessions in increasing.

s/in/is/

---

Section 3

   This document is not adding new requirements with respect to how
   exact a timer value must be implemented.

I think you don't mean "the precision with which a timer value must be 
implemented", but if you do, please change to say that. Otherwise, I
suggest

   This document is not adding new requirements with respect to how
   a timer value must be implemented.

---

Section 3

   How is the "Common interval set" used exactly?  In the example above,
   vendor "A" has a fastest interval of 10msec and thus would be
   required to support all intervals in the common set that are equal or
   larger than 10msec, i.e. it would support 10msec, 20msec, 50msec,
   100msec, 1sec.  Vendor "B" has a fastest interval of 20msec and thus
   would need to support 20msec, 50msec, 100msec and 1sec.  As long as
   this requirement is met for the common set of values, then both
   vendor "A" and "B" are free to support additional values outside of
   the common set.

I disagree! In the example you have used, implementation "A" will try to
set up the session with 10msec and implementation "B" will support that
interval because it is in the set.

I think that, to give the example meaning you need to have "A" initially
suggest a value that is not in the set, for example 15msec. Then "B" 
will respond with 20msec and that value will be chosen because it is in
the set.

---

Section 5

This is rally to check with you. Can influencing the interval value used
by a BFD session be used as part of an attack? For example, can forcing 
the transmission time to be slower make it harder to detect naughtiness?
And can forcing the interval to be faster help cause DoS? If so, does
limiting the set of available values make attacks easier?

A non-obvious property is that it additionally helps software
implementations as well.  BFD scaling tends to be a matter of both sessions
and the relevant timers.  By providing a common timer set, it may be
possible to supplement the logic in software implementations to better
multiplex sessions.

Such points were left out of the document simply because it's endlessly easy
to justify common intervals. :-)

I'm unclear on the benefit of such text.  This document roughly says "here's
the minimum".  You're essentially saying "but do better if you can!"  That
seems implied.

I'm also unclear on why this would be the case.  BFD "interoperates"
perfectly fine as long as you can configure at least one interval set both
sides are willing to respect.  If you observation is that a given pair of
implementations must have at least one set of intervals they're willing to
use - again that seems implied.

BFD is incredibly good at being used to say "this has gone down" and is
often implemented just with that edge transition in mind.  In order to
maliciously manipulate the timers in question, it would be necessary to have
a full man-in-the-middle that is capable of actively attacking at BFD
speeds.  If you're to that point, you should have turned on authentication
in the first place.  In such an event, you're already vulnerable to the
slow-down attack courtesy of cryptography.

I believe the case is academic and useful for beer discussion. :-)

Now... S-BFD may be a different matter.

Hello Adrian,

I see Jeff has already replied, which reminds me I should focus on this email 
thread as well.

we actually mention 2 times - in the abstract and in section 3 that 
implementations are not restricted to the Common Interval set and can add 
more supported intervals. I don't think I have to encourage vendors here. If 
"more is better" depends on the scenario, e.g. for last-mile-copper-to-IP 
devices to residential customers the 100msec + 1sec may be all that is 
needed. Core/Access router vendors will likely support more values than we 
list in the draft, to offer flexibility for the customers.

you lost me here. You don't mean that BFD for MPLS-TP does not talk to BFD 
for LAG? I would think it is obvious that trying this combination is outside 
what any document talks about.
Also the document is informational and we talk about a "SHOULD" when it comes 
to support the Common Interval set. Plus we have the rule that every 
implementation can defines it's own fastest interval and everything in the 
Common set that is faster does not need to be supported. So the fact that you 
can implement only a subset is "clear" I think. Our interest is to encourage 
implementors to go with the full set instead of "cherry picking", thus we 
haven't been more explicit.

But I'm still not sure I understand your comment, so my reply may be 
completely "off" :-)

Ah I see, we jumped immediately in the middle of the topic. Good idea, let me 
add this.

oh, indeed. Hmm, I think this SHOULD remained as this is the core of the 
draft: we encourage implementors to implement the full set of Common values 
(*), otherwise the effect of this draft would be reduced as the chances to 
find an agree-able interval are reduced. Thus the "official" language. I 
personally would like to keep it.

(*: full set from the fastest interval the implementation suports)

Ah yes, "precision" is a better fit for what we want to say. Thanks, 
correcting it.

I disagree :-) Section 3 says this

   In technical terms the requirement is as follows: a BFD
   implementation SHOULD support all values in the set of Common
   interval values which are equal to or larger than the fastest, i.e.
   lowest, interval the particular BFD implementation supports.


In other words we allow for an implementor to define the fastest interval 
that the platform should support and ask to implement all Common Interval 
values that are equal/larger than this fastest value.

It comes from the original draft when we wanted to define mandatory 
requirements. We have soften the draft since then but it still serves the 
purpose to define how to deviate from the Common set: you may drop the very 
fast values. Not every hardware implementation will support 3.3msec and 
3.3/10/20 msec is hard or even impossible for software-based BFD.

okay, the sentence in section 5 is short I admit :-) But this draft is not 
introducing any new mechanism how to negotiate the interval; it only shows 
how the mechanism of RFC5880 can be used to build a negotiation-sequence.
We do not force faster intervals, the adjustment is to slower intervals when 
the negotiation fails.
There is a risk - although I don't see an attack vector - with the fact that 
the final interval may be slower than the initial request, i.e.you don't get 
the service requested. What the draft contributes is it helps to find a 
common interval and sessions go up where otherwise they may stay down.

Hello Jeff,

pint ;-)

What potential problem do you see?  Actually for S-BFD I would have thought 
we don't have the interval problem as the reflector just reflects. It will 
introduce some minimum interval it can handle but otherwise all it does is 
introducing jitter. There are no timers on the reflector.

And for the initiator, well, it's the same node, so it should support the 
same intervals for Rx detect timer that it supports for Tx (?).

The distinction has less to do with the intervals (S-BFD has DoS-like
security considerations that are still highest on my list of concerns) than
it does with expected use case.

In regular BFD, we're often most interested in hearing that the session has
gone down.  It's partially why the slower negotiation isn't that big a deal.

In S-BFD, a big portion of the use case is the *up* transition.  Doing a
connectivity check prior to using a negotiated segment routed path, for
example.  In such cases, attacks that slow down the negotiated session,
especially given that they are much more likely to be multi-hop, are far
more interesting and a bit less academic.

I've spent some time thinking about this, but my conclusion is still the sa=
me: this document does not introduce any new security concerns. Attackers k=
nowing or not knowing the common intervals won't result in any additional s=
ecurity concerns to devices implementing the common intervals. Perhaps we c=
an expand the Security Considerations section a bit to make it more obvious=
 on what we mean.

   This document does not introduce any additional security concerns.
   The security considerations described in the BFD documents, [RFC5880]
   and others, apply to devices implementing the BFD protocol,
   regardless of whether or not the common interval set is implemented.

 Thanks!

Hi Jeff,
taking a step into pedantic camp (not the first time though).

"Doing a connectivity check prior to using a negotiated segment routed path=
 ..."

Two notes:
*       we will do either continuity check or connectivity verification. I =
think that with S-BFd it will be former;
*       failure on reverse path may give us false negative unless we ensure=
 S-BFD uses co-routed bi-directional associated OAM channel that, in forwar=
ding direction, is co-routed with the negotiated segment routed path.

        Regards,

The distinction has less to do with the intervals (S-BFD has DoS-like secur=
ity considerations that are still highest on my list of concerns) than it d=
oes with expected use case.

In regular BFD, we're often most interested in hearing that the session has=
 gone down.  It's partially why the slower negotiation isn't that big a dea=
l.

In S-BFD, a big portion of the use case is the *up* transition.  Doing a co=
nnectivity check prior to using a negotiated segment routed path, for examp=
le.  In such cases, attacks that slow down the negotiated session, especial=
ly given that they are much more likely to be multi-hop, are far more inter=
esting and a bit less academic.

Agreed and I carefully chose that wording based on prior discussions.

The SR use cases are still new enough that while this is true, this may not
be the desired check.  Presume one wants to validate a service chain where
the tested point is the ingress.  By allowing the BFD traffic to follow
through the chain to the egress, the chain is more fully exercised in the
check.

Your point, however, is taken.

Again, the point is to emphasize that the edge transition of interest is not
quite the same as regular BFD use cases and thus the timing "attack"
scenarios are potentially different.

Hello Nobo and BFD experts,

looking at your latest version of S-BFD IP - btw, thanks for splitting off 
the IP/MPLS specifics from the base draft into this draft! - I have a few 
comments and questions:

(1) you mention several times "local IP address" in the draft. Is this enough 
for IPv6 to be clear regarding routable vs. link-local addresses?  Or do you 
want to allow link-local addresses at all? (most S-BFD is likely multihop?)


(2) the UDP destination port for packets from the Reflector to the Initiator 
... your draft defines this port to be the copied value of the UDP source 
port from the Initiator-to-Reflector packet and forces the port to be in the 
range [49152, 65535]. I hesitate to see this port range as suitable for a 
relevant service. It's typically "open" for traceroute, DNS replies and such, 
which means is can be "wide open" with respect to the source IP of incoming 
packets.

If you don't want to define a specific UDP port to receive S-BFD packets on 
the Initiator then maybe allowing any source port (except from other 
well-known BFD ports :-) for outgoing Initiator-to-Reflector packets would 
help the network administrator to write access lists better tailored for 
S-BFD.


(3) In section 7 security considerations you write

      Implementations MUST ensure that response S-BFD packets generated
      to the initiator by the SBFDReflector have a reachable target (ex:
      destination IP address).

What does this mean? :-)
Seriously, how shall the Reflector know if the destination IP is reachable?  
Routing table is enough?  (even a default route? ;-)


(4) New UDP port for S-BFD echo. Sure, can be done but why not simply using 
3785/udp for this?  I fail to see what is the difference between S-BFD echo 
and an ordinary echo, considering that both leave many details to the 
implementor.


(5) Nitpicks in the References: bfd-seamless-base is meanwhile version 02. 
And the author list "Akiya, N., Pignataro, C., Ward, D., Bhatia, M., and J. 
Networks" has somehow dropped P.K. Santosh ;-)


Regards, Marc

Good point. It would be a good idea to add some texts to clarify what "loca=
l IP address" is. My immediate thought is that we add some texts stating th=
at "local IP address" MUST be a routable address by the remote target. We p=
robably should not get into what "type" of IPv6 address SBFDInitiator uses =
and when. Does that sound reasonable?

Interesting comment. Let me first say that it's probably a good idea to rel=
ax the port range as you said. Now whether we keep the port range [49152, 6=
5535] or relax it, I would see identification of S-BFD packets on the initi=
ator side to be:

- well-known source udp port MUST be matched
- initiator assigned destination port MAY matched

So the tailoring of access lists won't change.

In terms of relaxing the port range, I'm thinking something along the line =
of:

Initiator can use any UDP port but the port MUST NOT be the well-known S-BF=
D port (TBD1).

What do you think?

It says exactly what you said, but details of how to implement such check i=
s up to implementations.

I understand where you are coming from. However there may be implementation=
s out there which detects BFD echo packets to take them through special pat=
h in forwarding. We don't automatically want S-BFD echo packets to get same=
 treatments applied. Hence authors decided that it's best to make sure the =
BFD/S-BFD echo ports are separate. Authors are working through S-BFD-SR doc=
ument that describes how to use multi-hop S-BFD echo, we should be able to =
roll out the document within next few weeks.

Right, we roll out the two documents same time, thus xml2rfc picked up the =
base-01 version (it takes a while for the just submitted document to be tra=
nslated xml2rfc). Heh, Name=3D"J. Networks" is a bit funny. Let me see if I=
 can work with Santosh to clean this up.

Thanks!

Hello Adrian,

attached the (side-by-side) changes we plan to add to a new draft version, 
based on your comments. And I hope the replies we have provided are 
satisfactory for you - otherwise we need another round of discussion ;-)


Thanks & Regards,
Marc

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
 This draft is a work item of the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Common Interval Support in BFD
        Authors         : Nobo Akiya
                          Marc Binderberger
                          Greg Mirsky
	Filename        : draft-ietf-bfd-intervals-03.txt
	Pages           : 8
	Date            : 2014-08-16

Abstract:
   BFD requires that messages are transmitted at regular intervals and
   provides a way to negotiate the interval used by BFD peers.  Some BFD
   implementations may be restricted to only support several interval
   values.  When such BFD implementations speak to each other, there is
   a possibility of two sides not being able to find a common interval
   value to run BFD sessions.

   This document defines a small set of interval values for BFD that we
   call "Common intervals", and recommends implementations to support
   the defined intervals.  This solves the problem of finding an
   interval value that both BFD speakers can support while allowing a
   simplified implementation as seen for hardware-based BFD.  It does
   not restrict an implementation from supporting more intervals in
   addition to the Common intervals.

Hello Nobo,


> Good to hear a comment implying that document restructure effort was worth 
> the effort :)

sorry for the extra effort but I strongly believe it helps to focus on the 
"base" and "ip" aspects :-)

sounds good to me.

For most implementations you are right. But I like to use the basic BSD 
socket as a test because anything else is not standardized (de-facto or 
official).

So the Initiator opens a socket with a source UDP port S, sends out a UDP 
packet to the Reflector with destination UDP port TBD1 and receives the reply 
back to port S. For the Initiator the port S is what is matched on receiving 
the packet.

Thus my idea to relax it so an implementor can move S into a range where it 
suites best. While I assume that most ACL implementations do allow for a 
source port check I think it's still convenient to follow "destination port 
defines the service".

Yes please!

oh, you are right. Not that I ever liked this "smart behaviour" but it's 
reality, so okay with a clean sheet approach.

:-)

The IESG has received a request from the Bidirectional Forwarding
Detection WG (bfd) to consider the following document:
- 'Common Interval Support in BFD'
  <draft-ietf-bfd-intervals-03.txt> as Informational RFC

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2014-09-01. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   BFD requires that messages are transmitted at regular intervals and
   provides a way to negotiate the interval used by BFD peers.  Some BFD
   implementations may be restricted to only support several interval
   values.  When such BFD implementations speak to each other, there is
   a possibility of two sides not being able to find a common interval
   value to run BFD sessions.

   This document defines a small set of interval values for BFD that we
   call "Common intervals", and recommends implementations to support
   the defined intervals.  This solves the problem of finding an
   interval value that both BFD speakers can support while allowing a
   simplified implementation as seen for hardware-based BFD.  It does
   not restrict an implementation from supporting more intervals in
   addition to the Common intervals.

Note that this consists mostly of a re-publish with Santosh as the new
editor.  (And moving from .nroff to .xml.)

In the next few weeks, Santosh will be working with known implementors to
edit the document to match implementation.  Ideally these edits will be
complete prior to the next IETF session in Honolulu.  This will put us a bit
past our original milestone for publication, but still much better on track
than many of our previous documents.

Hello BFD experts,

thanks for the restructuring of the document. The downside of the document 
improvement is that certain aspects become more prominent now and I would 
like to comment these ;-)


C1: What came to my mind is how much is written about the Discriminator 
pools. As an implementation proposal it's a great read but from a protocol 
perspective I think we don't need this. What actually stays as a hard 
requirement is

(1) S-BFD Discriminator Uniqueness as you want to detect to end up on the 
wrong target.

(2) the receiver must know from the lower-layer (e.g. UDP port) that the 
packet is a S-BFD packet.

If another pool is used and what it is used for should be left to the 
implementor. E.g. if the my_discr on the Initiator side comes from the 
"normal" pool or from the S-BFD pool - well, using the S-BFD pool for both 
would make sense to avoid any interference with an existing BFD 
implementation. Point (2) above allows the implementor to know if the packet 
is related to S-BFD. Otherwise the Initiator discriminator has a local 
meaning only.

Long story short, section 4.1 IMHO should be a note to the implementor, that 
collisions are a topic not faced before and a new pool may help; the protocol 
is designed to provide the information from the lower layer, if needed.


C2: section 6.1.  New State Variables: the variable bfd.SessionType can have 
only two values, Initiator and Reflector. As an implementor I would take the 
liberty to add a state "not-SBFD" as you add this state variable to the base 
specification ... nitpick, I agree :-)


C3: the demand bit. The logic you describe is to avoid a loop attack. I 
wonder if this can be replaced or at least be reduced as we don't use the 
same UDP port anymore on Initiator and Reflector ?
Open question, I think I stumbled over section 7.7 "If the SBFDInitiator 
receives an S-BFD packet with Demand (D) bit set, the packet MUST be 
discarded.", which doesn't make much sense to me anymore.


Regards, Marc

I see your point, but do also note that the entire Section 4 grew over time=
 as more and more clarifications were requested. So I think it's worth pres=
erving most of the texts in this section. With that said, I do have an idea=
 on how we can address your concern.

Section 4.2 will be moved before section 4.1, and pre-text will be added in=
 the "Discriminator Pools" section.

New Section 4 will look like:

---- snip ----
4.  S-BFD Discriminators

4.1.  S-BFD Discriminator Uniqueness

   <keep current texts>

4.2.  Discriminator Pools

   This subsection describes a discriminator pool implementation
   technique to minimize S-BFD discriminator collisions.  The result
   will allow an implementation to better satisfy the S-BFD
   discriminator uniqueness requirement defined in Section 4.1.

   o  SBFDInitiator is to allocate a discriminator from the BFD
      discriminator pool.  If the system also supports classical BFD
      that runs on [RFC5880], then the BFD discriminator pool SHOULD be
      shared by SBFDInitiator sessions and classical BFD sessions.

   <rest will be existing texts>
---- snip ----

What do you think?

Ah yes, that should be clarified. We will change the text to:

   o  bfd.SessionType: This is a variable introduced by
      [I-D.ietf-bfd-multipoint] and describes the type of this session.
      Allowable values for S-BFD sessions are:

I think it is ok (or I would even go to the extent of saying it is desirabl=
e) to keep the (D)emand based loop prevention. This way:
- We have a loop prevention in the base.
- Data plane procedures can have an additional loop prevention if possible =
(which is the case for IP based S-BFD with UDP ports as you indicated).

Thanks!

Hi Prasad,

Thanks for good comments. I hope you are ok with the list being cc'ed on th=

Yes IP/UDP headers are required. When there's a need, a new document descri=
bing GAL/GACh based S-BFD is needed.

Right. Both Sections 7.2.2/7.3.2 states that "Required Min Echo RX Interval=
" SHOULD be zero. Section 10 further expands this by stating that "Required=
 Min Echo RX Interval" MAY be set but explains why that's not useful. I don=
't believe Sections 7.2.2/7.3.2 needs to be changed, but let me see if Sect=
ion 10 can be clarified a bit more.

>    b. For IP multi-hop: This is a difference from RFC 5882. How does an

This topic should become clearer once we roll out the new revision of draft=
-akiya-bfd-seamless-sr, it's almost ready.

>    c. BFD for MPLS-TE LSPs: How is SBFDReflector supposed to work? Will t=

Usually when using S-BFD on an RSVP-TE LSP, one would send in-band S-BFD pa=
ckets with max TTL on the label. So the target node of S-BFD packets will b=
e the egress of the RSVP-TE LSP. However, S-BFD packets could be terminated=
 on transit LSR with careful TTL tweaking if that was ever required.

Section 5.2 of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-ip=
/?include_text=3D1.

>    d. BFD for PW: Does SBFD apply here?

S-BFD best benefits monitoring of uni-directional paths. Personally I would=
 not push S-BFD usage on the PW being bi-directional, but continue using th=
e classical BFD. However, it is technically possible for the two end points=
 to use S-BFD if that was desired.

> 3. Base draft should mention the relationship between S-BFD and P2MP BFD
> (if any).

The way the document is structured is that we have the base and the related=
 data plane documents. P2MP is another data plane type, thus IMO, one shoul=
d write a new P2MP S-BFD document when P2MP S-BFD is desired.

Good point. I think that will improve the readability. Will incorporate thi=
s in the next revision.

> 5. Sec 7.3.2 of the base draft: Why should the desired MinTx  interval be

You are right, but a counter argument to what you are saying is that SBFDRe=
flector is sending (or reflecting) S-BFD packets, so one can argue that zer=
o(0) may not be an accurate reflection of the behavior. This is something w=
e can go with whatever the WG wants (i.e. either way is likely reasonable).

Thanks!

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
 This draft is a work item of the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Seamless Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (S-BFD)
        Authors         : Nobo Akiya
                          Carlos Pignataro
                          Dave Ward

                          Santosh Pallagatti
	Filename        : draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base-03.txt
	Pages           : 18
	Date            : 2014-08-23

Abstract:
   This document defines a simplified mechanism to use Bidirectional
   Forwarding Detection (BFD) with large portions of negotiation aspects
   eliminated, thus providing benefits such as quick provisioning as
   well as improved control and flexibility to network nodes initiating
   the path monitoring.

   This document updates RFC5880.

Hello BFD WG,

S-BFD authors have just published revisions for the base, IP and Segment Ro=
uting documents.
Links to the 3 documents can be found below.

Many thanks to those who provided comments!
We are seeking further comments from experts to solidify the S-BFD mechanis=
m.

We also believe draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-ip-05 is ready for the WG adoption=
 poll.
We will ask Jeff to initiate the WG adoption poll soon, followed by expert =
review to allocate the port assignment if the document adopted.

Thanks!

-Nobo, on behalf of authors

Dear Authors, et.al,
please kindly consider my comments and questions to this document:

*         Introduction

o    "... it is a reasonable choice to develop the unified OAM framework ba=
sed on those (CFM) concepts." I agree that for packet switching connection-=
oriented networks that are based on G.800 architecture CFM, but more so Y.1=
731, provides shared concepts. I think that the same cannot be said for con=
nectionless packet switching networks. Thus extending CFM model onto arbitr=
ary networks without consideration whether these are connection-oriented or=
 connectionless is very questionable approach, IMO;

o   "...CFM, it is a reasonable choice to develop the unified OAM framework=
 based on those concepts" IP OAM is not based on Ethernet Service OAM model=
 or principles but, IMO, OAM of overlay networks more closer resemble IP OA=
M as these networks are connectionless in their architecture;

o   "The YANG model presented in this document is the base model and suppor=
ts IP Ping and Traceroute." If only these and similar OAM tools, e.g. LSP p=
ing, Loopback/Linktrace, are in scope of the document, then, I believe, the=
 title may say something like "YANG model of on-demand OAM tool to detect a=
nd localize Loss of Continuity defect". Referring to ping/traceroute as "ge=
neric OAM" comes as stretch too far;

o    "...initiate a performance monitoring session can do so in the same ma=
nner regardless of the underlying protocol or technology" I'd point to work=
 of LMAP WG on informational model of performance measurements in large-sca=
le access networks, work of ITU-T's SG15, MEF. Perhaps sentence can be stop=
ped after "... or a Traceroute".

o   "In this document we define the YANG model for Generic OAM" Can you pro=
vide definition or reference to the definition of the "Generic OAM"? It is =
challenging to validate informational model of something that not been suff=
iciently defined.

*         Section 3

o   "This allows users to traverse between OAM of different technologies at=
 ease through a uniform API set." Usually relationships between OAM layers =
referred and viewed as OAM interworking. There are several examples of IETF=
 addressing aspects of OAM interworking. I think that interworking includes=
 not only scenarios of nested OAM layers but peering layers and thus is bro=
ader than introduced in the document "nested OAM".

o   Figure 1 depicts OAM of both connection-oriented and connectionless net=
works. What you see common, generic in respective OAM of these networks?

*         Section 4

o   "In IP, the MA can be per IP Subnet ..." As there's no definition of MA=
 in IP, is this the definition or one of examples. Can MA in IP network be =
other than per IP Subnet?

o   "Under each MA, there can be two or more MEPs (Maintenance End Points)"=
 Firstly, since you adopt MA-centric terminology, MEP stands for Maintenanc=
e Association End Point. Secondly, in some OAM models Down and Up MEP being=
 distinguished. Would your model consider that? As there's no definition of=
 MEP for several networks you've listed, e.g. IP, how the YANG model will a=
bstract something that is not defined? And thirdly, how and where MIPs are =
located in IP OAM?

Thank you for your consideration of my notes and looking forward to the int=
eresting discussion.

Regards,
        Greg

Sec 2. S-BFD UDP port:
 A minor nit: Should this section be called S-BFD Control UDP port (if it a=

Sec 4:

Sec 7.2:

A few questions regarding the above text:

Yes IP/UDP headers are required. When there's a need, a new document descri=
bing GAL/GACh based S-BFD is needed.
GVP1> Would you think that this understanding needs to be recorded in the d=

Right. Both Sections 7.2.2/7.3.2 states that "Required Min Echo RX Interval=
" SHOULD be zero. Section 10 further expands this by stating that "Required=
 Min Echo RX Interval" MAY be set but explains why that's not useful. I don=
't believe Sections 7.2.2/7.3.2 needs to be changed, but let me see if Sect=

This topic should become clearer once we roll out the new revision of draft=
-akiya-bfd-seamless-sr, it's almost ready.

Usually when using S-BFD on an RSVP-TE LSP, one would send in-band S-BFD pa=
ckets with max TTL on the label. So the target node of S-BFD packets will b=
e the egress of the RSVP-TE LSP. However, S-BFD packets could be terminated=
 on transit LSR with careful TTL tweaking if that was ever required.

Section 5.2 of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-ip=
/?include_text=3D1.

>    d. BFD for PW: Does SBFD apply here?

S-BFD best benefits monitoring of uni-directional paths. Personally I would=
 not push S-BFD usage on the PW being bi-directional, but continue using th=
e classical BFD. However, it is technically possible for the two end points=
 to use S-BFD if that was desired.

The way the document is structured is that we have the base and the related=
 data plane documents. P2MP is another data plane type, thus IMO, one shoul=
d write a new P2MP S-BFD document when P2MP S-BFD is desired.
GVP1> Agreed, it may be help to add a clarifying statement mentioning that =
P2MP BFD is outside the scope of the current document.

Good point. I think that will improve the readability. Will incorporate thi=

You are right, but a counter argument to what you are saying is that SBFDRe=
flector is sending (or reflecting) S-BFD packets, so one can argue that zer=
o(0) may not be an accurate reflection of the behavior. This is something w=
e can go with whatever the WG wants (i.e. either way is likely reasonable).
GVP1> Agreed. One could make it a non-zero value based on the packet rate t=

sical BFD. In classical BFD, while the packet rates in each direction can b=

In any case a copy may not be possible.

Hi Prasad,

Thanks for further comments.
Snipping out the ones we converged.

Note that few minor tweaks are required to S-BFD IP document as result of y=
our further comments below, but we will plan to incorporate them later when=
 we need to re-spin the document. We will likely proceed with the WG adopti=
on with S-BFD IP -05. Let us know if you have any concern with this.

> Sec 2. S-BFD UDP port:

Sounds good. Will update IP/SR documents accordingly.

> Sec 4:

> 5880?

The term is already defined in S-BFD base document.

o Classical BFD - BFD session types based on [RFC5880].

But let me update Introduction section slightly.

[OLD]
   The reader is expected to be familiar with the IP, MPLS BFD and S-BFD
   terminologies and protocol constructs.

[NEW]
   The reader is expected to be familiar with the IP, MPLS, BFD
   [RFC5880] and S-BFD [I-D.ietf-bfd-seamless-base] terminologies and
   protocol constructs.

I think it should be stated as mandatory in the document.

GTSM is purposely not mentioned to allow for texts described in Section 5.2=
.

Well, the first sentence of Section 5 is:

   S-BFD control packets are transmitted with IP header, UDP header and
   BFD control header ([RFC5880]).

My thought is that this is sufficient.

Segment Routing is the primary driver for the S-BFD echo function. For bi-d=
irectional single-hop continuity check, I don't see the need to migrate awa=
y from classical BFD sessions IMHO, it is working well.

Let's not even mention P2MP, i.e. take similar approach as RFC5881 (which a=
lso doesn't mention this).

Some other BFD fields are copied by the SBFDReflector, but not "Required Mi=
n Echo RX Interval".

   o  "Required Min Echo RX Interval" SHOULD be set to zero.

Let us know if you have any concern with this.

Hello everyone,

think I missed some discussions as they showed as "ISIS" WG. So my apology 
for bringing this up again but ...

looking at draft-ginsberg-isis-sbfd-discriminator-00 there is this part in 
the document:


   Inclusion of the S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLV in a Router Capability
   TLV is optional.  Multiple S-BFD Discriminators sub-TLVs MAY be
   advertised by an IS.  When multiple S-BFD discriminators are
   advertised how a given discriminator is mapped to a specific use case
   is out of scope for this document.


There is something right about it, at the same time something is missing, 
IMHO.

How BFD is using the discriminator value(s) is likely something the IS-IS 
protocol does not want to know; it would create interdependencies and 
complexity.

On the other hand the solution does not provide enough context for each 
discriminator. For a single discriminator - fine, no choice anyway. But 
transporting multiple discriminators without context seems "useless" to me.

I would have expected a slightly different layout:

                                                  No. of octets
                 +-----------------------------+
                 | Type (to be assigned by     |     1
                 | IANA)  |
                 +-----------------------------+
                 | Length (multiple of 8)      |     1
                 +-----------------------------+
                 | Discriminator Value         |     4 per Discriminator
                 | Context Value               |     4 (?) per Context
                 : (potentially more pairs of  :
                 :  Discriminator/Context)     :  
                 +-----------------------------+


How many bits per Context value can be discussed; I used 32bit due to lack of 
fantasy ;-)  What a "context value" is/means doesn't matter to IS-IS, it just 
transports it. But the IS-IS clients - be it BFD or BFD clients - can use it.

We don't even need to discuss the details of a Context Value within the BFD 
WG for now but not having any value for administrative purposes seems 
"jumping short" to me (think communities in BGP, route tags in certain RIB 
implementations etc.)


Again, sorry for commenting with a delay of "only" a few month :-)


Regards, Marc

Marc -

No apologies necessary - the draft is still V0 and not yet a WG item. Your =
comments are welcome and still timely.

That said, we made a conscious decision in both the IS-IS and OSPF drafts t=
o stay out of the "application context"  space. Despite rumors to the contr=
ary, the IGPs are NOT a distribution mechanism for application information.=
 Their primary purpose is to advertise information necessary for the operat=
ion of the routing protocol. It is in fact arguable that we are "crossing t=
he line" by advertising S-BFD Discriminators at all - however the fact that=
 IGPs are a likely S-BFD client as well as the convenience of using the IGP=
s makes this compromise seem justifiable.=20

RFC 6823 (GENINFO) is the defined way to advertise application information =
using IS-IS. If BFD WG is serious about advertising application context alo=
ng with the S-BFD Discriminators then this would be the way forward. That b=
rings with it a significant amount of additional specification - so such a =
decision needs to be well considered.

Greg

Before answering the specific questions below,  would like explain few aspe=
cts related to the extended CFM model used here. CFM  originally was design=
ed exclusively for Ethernet. As part of the TRILL OAM work we decoupled CFM=
 model from Ethernet based addressing and made it addressing independent. T=
hat is the CFM model that is referred here.

CFM defines a complete fault model that include fault domains, Test point, =
Layering etc. Strict definition of such is needed to develop a complete OAM=
 solution regardless of the underline technology. CFM does a fantastic job =
in accomplishing that and AFIK there is no other model. We are leveraging t=
hat model.

The word generic OAM is utilized here to indicate that the model can be app=
lied regardless of the underlying technology.

YANG model is not a one-one copy of CFM YANG defined in MEF. Rather it is d=
efined with address independent and extensibility in mind.

With the above in mind, specific answers in-line:

Dear Authors, et.al,
please kindly consider my comments and questions to this document:

*         Introduction

o    "... it is a reasonable choice to develop the unified OAM framework ba=
sed on those (CFM) concepts." I agree that for packet switching connection-=
oriented networks that are based on G.800 architecture CFM, but more so Y.1=
731, provides shared concepts. I think that the same cannot be said for con=
nectionless packet switching networks. Thus extending CFM model onto arbitr=
ary networks without consideration whether these are connection-oriented or=
 connectionless is very questionable approach, IMO;


[Answer] As stated above it is the OAM Model that is leveraged here. Regard=
less of connection oriented or not the model on Fault domains, Test points =
etc is valid.

In theory connection oriented can be broken in to connection establishment =
and data forwarding. With that in mind, one can define Fault domain and tes=
t points. Followed by definition of the Fault identifications tools accordi=
ngly.

Do you have a preferred OAM tool  for fault verification/isolation and loss=
 and performance monitoring for connection oriented connectuons ?. If so wo=
uld like to review and map to the model.



o   "...CFM, it is a reasonable choice to develop the unified OAM framework=
 based on those concepts" IP OAM is not based on Ethernet Service OAM model=
 or principles but, IMO, OAM of overlay networks more closer resemble IP OA=
M as these networks are connectionless in their architecture;

[Answer]  Please see the answer above and extended CFM model. It is the mod=
el that is presented here, regardless of the connectioness,  OAM tools need=
 fault domains and fault boundaries. Addidtionally as stated in the explana=
tion above, there is nothing Ethernet in CFM, once the addressing is decoup=
led.


o   "The YANG model presented in this document is the base model and suppor=
ts IP Ping and Traceroute." If only these and similar OAM tools, e.g. LSP p=
ing, Loopback/Linktrace, are in scope of the document, then, I believe, the=
 title may say something like "YANG model of on-demand OAM tool to detect a=
nd localize Loss of Continuity defect". Referring to ping/traceroute as "ge=
neric OAM" comes as stretch too far;

[Answer] I think there is a miss understanding this model is not limited to=
 Ping and Trace route. Ping and traceroute are only examples to get the wor=
k stared and discussion going. As we go along other tools will be mapped to=
 the model.

o    "...initiate a performance monitoring session can do so in the same ma=
nner regardless of the underlying protocol or technology" I'd point to work=
 of LMAP WG on informational model of performance measurements in large-sca=
le access networks, work of ITU-T's SG15, MEF. Perhaps sentence can be stop=
ped after "... or a Traceroute".
[Answer] I did not fully understand your point.


o   "In this document we define the YANG model for Generic OAM" Can you pro=
vide definition or reference to the definition of the "Generic OAM"? It is =
challenging to validate informational model of something that not been suff=
iciently defined.

[Answer]  As explained earlier terminology generic OAM is used to indicate =
that the presented OAM model can be applied independent of the underlying t=
echnology. In section 1, we have stated the following: "..In this document,=
 we take the [8021Q] CFM model and extend it to a technology independent fr=
amework and build the corresponding YANG model accordingly. The YANG model =
presented in this document is the base model and supports IP Ping and Trace=
route. The generic OAM YANG model is designed such that it can be extended =
to cover various technologies. Technology dependent nodes and RPC commands =
are defined in technology specific YANG models, which use and extend the ba=
se model defined here. .... "



*         Section 3

o   "This allows users to traverse between OAM of different technologies at=
 ease through a uniform API set." Usually relationships between OAM layers =
referred and viewed as OAM interworking. There are several examples of IETF=
 addressing aspects of OAM interworking. I think that interworking includes=
 not only scenarios of nested OAM layers but peering layers and thus is bro=
ader than introduced in the document "nested OAM".
[Answer]  Can you please provide some example here, I am not quite clear.

Guessing from the word peering, if we are referring to cascaded sections of=
 different technologies such as IP Cloud, MPLS cloud and another IP cloud. =
Then the model presented here is the answer. You can have an end end OAM se=
ssion at a higher MD-Level. Each of the clouds below can have separate OAM =
at a lower MD-Level. These can be utilized for fault isolation.


o   Figure 1 depicts OAM of both connection-oriented and connectionless net=
works. What you see common, generic in respective OAM of these networks?

[Answer] Please see the answers above.


*         Section 4

o   "In IP, the MA can be per IP Subnet ..." As there's no definition of MA=
 in IP, is this the definition or one of examples. Can MA in IP network be =
other than per IP Subnet?
[Answer] It is ".. can be", so it meant to be an example and other possibil=
ities are not ruled out and model does not assume any such limitation.


o   "Under each MA, there can be two or more MEPs (Maintenance End Points)"=
 Firstly, since you adopt MA-centric terminology, MEP stands for Maintenanc=
e Association End Point. Secondly, in some OAM models Down and Up MEP being=
 distinguished. Would your model consider that? As there's no definition of=
 MEP for several networks you've listed, e.g. IP, how the YANG model will a=
bstract something that is not defined? And thirdly, how and where MIPs are =
located in IP OAM?

[Answer] Yes model accept both UP/Down.

One cannot say for IP there is no MEP. MEP is a functional abstraction of a=
 test point that generate and respond to OAM messages. In that regard IP de=
vices today have an implicit MEP at the CPU. The model allow to provide mor=
e semantics to the MEP and allow to create UP/Down per interface or other s=
cope, hence providing more granularity in fault isolation/verification and =
monitoring.

Thank you for your consideration of my notes and looking forward to the int=
eresting discussion.

Thank you for spending time to review and comment. We are updating the next=
 version with comments received so far and specifically during IETF in Cana=
da. We are more than happy enhance where applicable or need more clarity.

Regards,
        Greg

 fault model that include fault domains, Test point, Layering etc. Strict d=

 a fantastic job in accomplishing that and AFIK there is no other model. We=
