72 1. Introduction
74 When RFC 8029 [RFC8029] where published it contained among other
75 things updates to the "Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label
76 Switched Paths (LSPs) Ping Parameters" IANA name space
77 [IANA-LSP-PING].
79 The LSP Ping IANA registries were partly updated to match RFC 8029,
80 but the there were some ambiguity in the RFC, that were reflected in
81 the registries.
83 This document updates two groups of registries.
85 First the registries for Message Types [MessTypes], Reply Modes
86 [re-Mode] and Return Codes [return-codes]. The changes to these
87 registries are minor.
89 Second, this document updates the TLV and sub-TLV registries.
91 o TLVs [tlv-reg]
93 o Sub-TLVs for TLVs 1, 16 and 21 [sub-1-16-21]
95 o Sub-TLVs for TLV 6 [sub-6]
96 o Sub-TLVs for TLV 11 [sub-11]
98 o Sub-TLVs for TLV 20 [sub-20]
100 o Sub-TLVs for TLV 23 [sub-23]
102 o Sub-TLVs for TLV 27 [sub-27]
104 The registry for sub-TLVs for TLV 9 [sub-9] is not updated.
106 1.1. Requirement Language
108 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
109 "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
110 "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
111 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
112 capitals, as shown here.
114 2. Updating the Message Types, Reply Mode and Return Codes Registries
116 The following changes are made to the Message Types, Reply Modes and
117 Return Codes [MessTypes] registries.
119 o a small set of code points (4 code points) for experimental use is
120 added, actually they are take from the range for "Private Use".
122 o the registration procedure "Specification Required" is changed to
123 "RFC Required" and the note "Experimental RFC needed" is removed
125 o In the listing of assignments the term "Vendor Specific Use" is
126 changed to "Private use"
128 o the registration procedures "Private Use" and "Experimental Use"
129 are added to the table of registration procedures
131 o A note "Not to be assigned" is added for the registration
132 procedures "Private Use" and "Experimental Use"
134 o In the list that capture nment status, the fields that are
135 reserved, i.e. 0, Private Use and Experimental Use are clearly
136 marked.
138 * In the Return Codes [return-codes] registry the code point "0"
139 already been assigned. This assignment is not changed and this
140 registry will not havethe "0" value "Reserved".
142 The new Registration Procedures layout and the new assignments for
143 these registries will be found in Appendix A.
145 3. Updating the TLV and sub-TLV registries
147 When a new LSP Ping sub-TLV registry were created by RFC 8611
148 [RFC8611] this registry "Sub-TLVs for TLV Type 6" [sub-6] was set up
149 following the intentions of RFC 8029.
151 The registry for "Sub-TLVs for TLV Type 6" will serve as a model to
152 change/update the rest of the TLV and sub-TLV registries in this name
153 space.
155 The registration procedures in the current registry for "Sub-TLVs for
156 TLV Type 6" looks like this (2019-06-20). This will be used as a
157 base-line and some additions/changes will be made as captured in the
158 Appendixes:
160 +-------------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
161 | Range | Registration | Note |
162 | | Procedures | |
163 +-------------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
164 | 0-16383 | Standards Action | This range is for mandatory |
165 | | | TLVs or for optional TLVs that |
166 | | | require an error message if not |
167 | | | recognized. |
168 | 16384-31743 | RFC Required | This range is for mandatory |
169 | | | TLVs or for optional TLVs that |
170 | | | require an error message if not |
171 | | | recognized. |
172 | 31744-32767 | Private Use | Not to be assigned |
173 | 32768-49161 | Standards Action | This range is for optional TLVs |
174 | | | that can be silently dropped if |
175 | | | not recognized. |
176 | 49162-64511 | RFC Required | This range is for optional TLVs |
177 | | | that can be silently dropped if |
178 | | | not recognized. |
179 | 64512-65535 | Private Use | Not to be assigned |
180 +-------------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
182 Sub-TLVs for TLV Type 6 Registration Procedures
184 This document adds small ranges of code points for Experimental Use
185 to this registry and to registries listed in Appendix B.
187 All registries will be changed to reflect the same model.
189 3.1. General principles the LSP Ping TLV and sub-TLV registries
191 The following principles are valid for all the LSP Ping TLV and sub-
192 TLV IANA registries
194 o all mandatory TLVs and sub-TLVs requires a response if the are not
195 recognized
197 o some optional TLVs and sub-TLVs requires a response if the are not
198 recognized
200 o some optional TLVs and sub-TLVs may be silently dropped if the are
201 not recognized
203 The range of each TLV and sub-TLV registry is divided into to blocks,
204 one with a range from 0 to 49161 for TLVs and sub-TLVs that require a
205 response if not recognized. Another block in the range from 49161 to
206 65535, this block is for TLVs and sub-TLVs that may be silently
207 dropped if not recognized.
209 Each of the blocks have code point spaces with the following
210 registration procedures:
212 o Standards Action
214 o RFC Required
216 o Experimental Use
218 o Private Use
220 The exact defintion of registration procedures for IANA registries
221 are found in [RFC8126]
223 IETF does not prescribe how the Experimental Use and Private Use sub-
224 TLVs are handled; however, if a packet containing a sub-TLV from the
225 Experimental Use or Private Use ranges is received by an LSR that
226 does not recognize the sub-TLV, an error message MAY be returned if
227 the sub-TLV is from the range 31744-32767, and the packet SHOULD be
228 silently dropped if it is from the range 64512-65535.
230 3.2. Changes to the LSP Ping registries
232 This section lists the changes to each LSP Ping Registry, in
233 appendixes it is shown what the IANA registry version of the
234 registration procedures and assignments would look like.
236 3.2.1. Common changes to the TLV and sub-TLV registries
238 The following changes are made to the TLV and sub-TLV registries.
240 o two small set of code points (2 times 4 code points) for
241 experimental use is added, actually they are take from the range
242 for "Private Use".
244 o the registration procedure "Specification Required" is changed to
245 "RFC Required" and the note "Experimental RFC needed" is removed
247 o In the listing of assignements the term "Vendor Specific Use" is
248 changed to "Private use"
250 o In the listing of assignments the range for "Experimental Use" is
251 added
253 o the registration procedures "Private Use" and "Experimental Use"
254 are added to the table of registration procedures
256 o A note "Not to be assigned" is added for the registration
257 procedures "Experimental Use" and "Private Use"
259 o In the list that capture assignment status, the fields that are
260 reserved, i.e. 0, Experimental Use and Private Use are clearly
261 marked.
263 The new Registration Procedures description and the new assignments
264 for these registries will be found in Appendix B and Appendix C.
266 4. Security Considerations
268 TBA
270 5. IANA Considerations
272 There are no requests for IANA actions in this document.
274 This is obviously not true, the entire document is an IANA
275 Consideration section,but we need some help how to write the IANA
276 section in this type of document.
278 Maybe we could just say, IANA is requested to update the LSP Ping
279 name space as described in this document.
