Introduction BGP Flow-spec is an extension to BGP that allows for the dissemination of traffic flow specification rules. It leverages the BGP Control Plane to simplify the distribution of ACLs, new filter rules can be injected to all BGP peers simultaneously without changing router configuration. The typical application of BGP Flow- spec is to automate the distribution of traffic filter lists to routers for DDOS mitigation. Hao & Liu,et,al Expires February 20, 2015 [Page 2] Internet-Draft EVPN Flow Spec August 2014 RFC5575 defines a new BGP Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) format used to distribute traffic flow specification rules. NLRI (AFI=1, SAFI=133)is for IPv4 unicast filtering. NLRI (AFI=1, SAFI=134)is for BGP/MPLS VPN filtering. The Flow specification match part only includes L3/L4 information like source/destination prefix, protocol, ports, and etc, so traffic flows can only be selectively filtered based on L3/L4 information. BGP MPLS based Ethernet VPNs(EVPN)[EVPN] is being deployed in an increasing number of WAN networks. In [EVPN-OVERLAY], EVPN also can be deployed within a data center using layer 2 overlays like VXLAN, NVGRE, and etc. In EVPN network, we also have requirement to deploy BGP Flow-spec to mitigate DDoS attack traffic. Within EVPN network, both IP and non-IP Ethernet traffic maybe exist. For IP traffic filtering, the Flow specification rules defined in [RFC5575] which include match criteria and actions can still be used, flow specification rules received via new NLRI format apply only to traffic that belongs to the MAC VRF(s) in which it is imported. For non-IP Ethernet traffic filtering, Layer 2 related information like source/destination MAC and VLAN should be considered. But the flow specification match criteria defined in RFC5575 only include layer 3 and layer 4 IP information, layer 2 Ethernet information haven't been included. This document proposes a new BGP NLRI type (AFI=25, SAFI=TBD) value, which can be used to propagate traffic filtering information in an EVPN environment. The new specific (AFI, SAFI) pair is to identify EVPN flow-spec application. A new subset of component types and extended community also are defined. 2. Ethernet Flow Specification encoding in BGP A new BGP NLRI type (AFI=25, SAFI=TBD) value is proposed to identify EVPN flow-spec application. Flow specification rules received via this NLRI apply only to traffic that belongs to the MAC VRF(s) in which it is imported. Flow rules are accepted by default, when received from remote PE routers. Besides the component types defined in [RFC5575], this document proposes the following additional component types for EVPN Ethernet traffic filtering: Type 13 - Source MAC Encoding: Hao & Liu,et,al Expires February 20, 2015 [Page 3] Internet-Draft EVPN Flow Spec August 2014 Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match source MAC. Values are encoded as 1-byte to 6-byte quantities. Type 14 - Destination MAC Encoding: Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match destination MAC. Values are encoded as 1-byte to 6-byte quantities. Type 15 - Ethernet Type Encoding: Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match two-octet field. Values are encoded as 1- or 2-byte quantities. Type 16 - VLAN ID Encoding: Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match VLAN ID. Values are encoded as 1- or 2-byte quantities. Type 17 - VLAN COS Encoding: Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match 3-bit VLAN COS fields [802.1p]. Values are encoded using a single byte, where the five most significant bits are zero and the three least significant bits contain the VLAN COS value. Type 18 - VN ID Encoding: Defines a list of {operation, value} pairs used to match 24-bit VN ID fields. VN ID is tenant identification in NVO3 network. Values are encoded as 1- to 3-byte quantities.

Ethernet Flow Specification Traffic Actions +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ | type | extended community | encoding | +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ | 0x8006 | traffic-rate | 2-byte as#, 4-byte float | | 0x8007 | traffic-action | bitmask | | 0x8008 | redirect | 6-byte Route Target | | 0x8009 | traffic-marking | DSCP value | +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ Besides to support the above extended communities per RFC5575, this document also proposes the following BGP extended communities specifications for Ethernet flow to extend [RFC5575]: +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ | type | extended community | encoding | +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ | 0x800A | VLAN COS marking | COS value | +--------+--------------------+--------------------------+ The VLAN COS marking extended community instructs a system to modify the COS bits of a transiting Ethernet packet to the corresponding value. This extended community is encoded as a sequence of 5 zero bytes followed by the VLAN COS value encoded in the 3 least significant bits of 6th byte. 4. Security Considerations No new security issues are introduced to the BGP protocol by this specification. 5. IANA Considerations IANA is requested to allocate a new SAFI to identify EVPN flow-spec application. IANA is requested to create and maintain a new registry entitled: "Flow spec MPLS Component Types": Type 13 - Source MAC Type 14 - Destination MAC Type 15 - Ethernet Type Type 16 - VLAN ID Hao & Liu,et,al Expires February 20, 2015 [Page 5] Internet-Draft EVPN Flow Spec August 2014 Type 17 - VLAN COS Type 18 - VN ID IANA is requested to update the reference for the following assignment in the "BGP Extended Communities Type - extended, transitive" registry: Type value Name Reference ---------- ---------------------------------------- --------- 0x080A Flow spec VLAN COS marking [this document] 5.1.
