INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
1. Introduction
A Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) is an Ethernet-centric IP edge
router, and the aggregation point for user traffic. To provide
centralized session management, flexible address allocation, high
scalability for subscriber management capacity, and cost-efficient
redundancy, the Control/User (CU) separated BNG is descried in
[TR-384]. The CU separated Service Control Plane, which is
responsible for user access authentication and setting forwarding
entries in User Planes, can be virtualized and centralized. The
routing control and forwarding plane, i.e. the BNG user plane
(local), can be distributed across the infrastructure.
This document specifies the CU Separation BNG control channel
Protocol (CUSP) for communications between a BNG Control Plane (CP)
and a set of User Planes (UPs). CUSP is designed to be flexible and
extensible so as to easily allow for additional messages and objects,
should further requirements be expressed in the future.

2. Concept and Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
2.1 Terminology
BNG: Broadband Network Gateway. A broadband remote access server
(BRAS, B-RAS or BBRAS) routes traffic to and from broadband
remote access devices such as digital subscriber line access
multiplexers (DSLAM) on an Internet service provider's (ISP)
network. BRAS can also be referred to as a Broadband Network
Gateway (BNG).
CP: Control Plane. CP is a user control management component which
supports the management of the UP's resources such as the user
entry and forwarding policy.
CU: Control / User.
CUSP: Control and User Separate Protocol.
UP: User Plane. UP is a network edge and user policy implementation
component. The traditional router's Control Plane and Forwarding
Plane are both preserved on BNG devices in the form of a user
plane.

3.1 Initialization Phase
UP CP

| TCP Session Establishment |
|<----------------------------->|
| |
| |
| HELLO (version) |
|------------------------------>|
| |
| |
| HELLO (version) |
|<----------------------------- |
| |
| |
The initialization phase consists of two successive steps:
1) Establishment of a TCP connection (3-way handshake) between the CP
and the UP using port tbd1.
2) Establishment of a CUSP session over the TCP connection.
Once the TCP connection is established, the CP and the UP initialize
the CUSP session during which the version negotiation is performed.
The version information is carried within Hello messages (see Section
6.2). If the CUSP session establishment phase fails because the CP
or UP disagree on the version parameters or one of the CP or UP does
not answer after the expiration of the establishment timer, the TCP
connection is immediately closed.
3.2 Network Resource Report
The CP configures the BNG's access interface via NETCONF, and UPs
report the attributes of their interfaces and slots.

Once a CUSP session has been established, if an IPoE session is
required, the UPs report attributes of the interfaces and slots to be
used for the IPoE session via CUSP, and the CP initiate a NETCONF
session to configure the requested access interface of BNG.
Once the above process has been accomplished, the CP sends to the UP
the ACCESS_IF_INFO (Access Interface Information) message that
contains a variety of objects that specify the set of constrains and
attributes for the BNG access interface. For example, ifname = 0001
[RFC2863], BNG service enable, IPv4 connection trigger enable,
neighbor detection enable, etc.
Then the user dials up via VXLAN, the CP sends to the UP the
USER_BASIC_INFOR message USER_IPV4_INFOR, and USER_ROUTEV4_INFO that
contains a variety of objects that specify the attributes for the
user's basic information, user's ipv4 information, and routing
information.
Upon receiving the above messages from a CP, the UPs reports the user
detection results and user's traffic status via the
USER_DETECT_RESULT_INFO message and USER_TRAFFIC_INFO, message.

| |
Once a CUSP session has been established, if an PPPoE session is
required, the UPs report attributes of the corresponding interfaces
and slots to be used for the PPPoE session via CUSP, and the CP
initiate a NETCONF session to configure requested access interface of
the BNG.
Once the above process has been accomplished, the CP sends to the UP
the ACCESS_IF_INFO (Access Interface Information) message that
contains a variety of objects that specify the set of constrains and
attributes for the BNG access interface. For example, ifname = 0001
[RFC2863], BNG service enable, IPv4 connection trigger enable,
neighbor detection enable, etc.
Then the user dials up via VXLAN, the CP sends to the UP the
USER_BASIC_INFOR message, the USER_PPP_INFO message, USER_IPV4_INFOR
message, and USER_ROUTEV4_INFO message that contains a variety of
objects that specify the attributes of the user's basic information,
Hu, et al [Page 8]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
user's PPP information, user's ipv4 information, and routing
information.
Upon receiving the above messages from a CP, the UPs reports the user
detection results and user's traffic status via
USER_DETECT_RESULT_INFO message and USER_TRAFFIC_INFO, etc.
3.5 Setting the User's QoS Information

| User dials up via VXLAN |
|<---CP sends objective TLV/Event|
| report, etc. |
| |
| CP sends USER_QOS_INFO |
|<---to UPs via CUSP-------------|
| |
Once a CUSP session has been established, if a user's Quality of
Service (QoS) needs to be set dynamically, then the UPs report
attributes of the relevant interfaces and slots via CUSP, and the CP
initiate a NETCONF session to configure the requested access
interfaces of the BNG and User's configuration template. Then the
user dials up via VXLAN, the CP sends the USER_BASIC_INFOR message,
USER_IPV4_INFOR message, and USER_ROUTEV4_INFO message to the UP, the
UPs reports the user detection results and user's traffic status.
Once above process has been accomplished, the CP sends the
USER_QOS_AUTH_INFO message to the UPs; this message contains a
variety of objects that specify the set of constrains and attributes
for the user's required QoS. (The format of these QoS attributes
should be parallel to the QoS configuration templates.)

If the CUSP session goes down, the CU separation BNG is required to
save the users' information. And if the CUSP session restarts, the
CP may request that the UP send the previous session's statistics to
synchronize user information. The above figure shows this process,
and the details of the session statistic message can be found in
Sections 6.3.

INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
4. CUSP Common Header
A CUSP message consists of a common header followed by a variable-
length body made of a set of objects. Receiving a CUSP message with
a missing mandatory object MUST trigger an Error message (see Section
5.6). Conversely, if an object is optional, the object may or may
not be present.
Common header:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

| Message-Type |F| Resv | Message-Length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Transaction id |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
CUSP Message Common Header
Message-Type (8 bits): The following message types are defined in
this document:
Value Meaning
----- ------------------
1 Update objective
2 Hello
3 statistics Request
4 statistics Begin
5 statistics Data
6 statistics End
7 Source Report
8 Event Report
9 Error
F (1 bit): Setting the F bit to one enables the control message ACK
mode and setting the F bit to zero disables that mode.
Resv (7 bits): Reserved bits. They MUST be set to zero on
transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt.
Message-Length (16 bits): Total length of the CUSP message including
the common header, expressed in bytes as an unsigned
integer.
Transaction ID (32 bits): This field is used to identify requests. It
is echoed back in the corresponding ACK / response / Error
message.
Hu, et al [Page 11]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
5. Objective Message Formats
CUSP objects have a common format. They begin with a CUSP common
header (see Section 4). This is followed by object-specific fields
defined for each different object. The object may also include one
or more type-length-value (TLV) encoded data sets. Each TLV has the
same structure as described in Section 5.1.
5.1 Objective TLV Format
A CUSP object may include a set of one or more optional TLVs. All
CUSP objective TLVs have the following format:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

| Type | TLV-Length |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Value |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Type: 2 bytes
TLV-Length: 2 bytes
Value: variable
A CUSP objective TLV is comprised of 2 bytes for the type, 2 bytes
specifying the TLV-Length, and a value field. The Type and TLV-Length
fields are unsigned integers.
The first 4 bits of Type field indicate the operation of this TLV,
currently, there are two types: 0 - update the objectives; 1 - delete
the object. Updating a non-existent object creates it.
The remaining bits of the Type field indicate the TLV's type (4-15
bits) which is the object to which it applies. The following objects
/ types are currently defined:
Value Meaning
----- --------------
0 USER_BASIC_INFO
1 USER_PPP_INFO
2 ACCESS_IFSRV_INFO
3 USER_IPV4_INFO
4 USER_IPV6_INFO
5 USER_QOS_AUTH_INFO
6 ROUTEV4_INFO
7 ROUTEV6_INFO
8 STATIC_USER_INFO
Hu, et al [Page 12]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
The TLV-Length field defines the length of the value portion in
bytes. The TLV is padded to 4-bytes alignment; padding is not
included in the Length field (so a 3-byte value would have a length
of 3, but the total size of the TLV would be 8 bytes).
Unrecognized TLVs MUST be ignored.
IANA management of the CUSP Object TLV type identifier codespace is
described in Section 11.
The details of the attributes of the Objective TLV are specified in
Section 4.1 of [InforModel].
Hu, et al [Page 13]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
6. Control Message Format
CUSP Control messages have a common format. They begin with the CUSP
common header (see Section 4) followed by control TLVs fields for the
different control operations. It may also include one or more type-
length-value (TLV) encoded control data sets. Each TLV has the same
structure as described in Section 6.1.
For each CUSP message type, rules are defined that specify the set of
objects that the message can carry. We use the Backus-Naur Form
(BNF) (see [RFC5511]) to specify such rules. Square brackets refer
to optional sub-sequences. An implementation MUST form the CUSP
messages using the object ordering specified in this document.
6.1 Control TLV Format
A CUSP control may include a set of one or more optional TLVs. All
CUSP control TLVs have the following format:
Type: 2 bytes
TLV-Length: 2 bytes
Value: variable
A CUSP control TLV consists of 2 bytes for the type, 2 bytes
specifying the TLV length, and a value field.
Control Type (8 bits): The following message types are currently
defined:
Value Meaning
----- ----------
0 Hello
1 Statistics
The Length field defines the length of the value portion in bytes.
The TLV is padded to 4-bytes alignment; padding is not included in
the Length field (so a 3-byte value would have a length of 3, but the
total size of the TLV would be 8 bytes).
Unrecognized TLVs MUST be ignored.
IANA management of the CUSP Object TLV type identifier codespace is
described in Section 11.
Hu, et al [Page 14]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
6.2 Hello Message
The Hello message is a CUSP message sent by a UP to a CP and by a CP
to a UP in order to establish a CUSP session. The Type field of the
CUSP common header for the Hello message is set to 2.
Once the TCP connection has been successfully established, the first
message sent by the UP to the CP or by the CP to the UP MUST be a
Hello message.
Any message received prior to a Hello message MUST trigger a protocol
error condition causing an ERROR message to be sent with Error-Type
Version_ Negotiation_Failed and the CUSP session establishment
attempt MUST be terminated by closing the TCP connection.
The Hello message is used to establish a CUSP session between the
CUSP peers. During the establishment phase, the CUSP peers exchange
version information. If both parties agree on such version
negotiation, the CUSP session is successfully established.
The format of a Hello message is as follows:
<Hello Message>::= <Common Header>
<HELLO_TLV>
<HELLO_TLV>:: = <version>
Version (4 bytes): specifies the CP/UP supported CUSP's version,
currently, the version is 1.
6.3 Statistics Message
If the CUSP session goes down, the CU separation BNG is required to
preserve the users' information. If the CUSP session restarts, the
CP may request the UP to report the previous session's statistics to
synchronize user information.
The Type field of the CUSP common header for the Statistics messages
is set to 3, 4, 5, or 6.
The format of a Statistics message is as follows:
<Statistics Message>::= <Common Header>
<Statistics_TLV>
<Statistics_TLV>::= <ClassID><Event><Resv>
ClassID (2 bytes): This field specifies the statistics type of CUS
session, the following statistics types are currently defined:
Hu, et al [Page 15]
INTERNET-DRAFT CU Separation Protocol
Value Meaning
----- -------------------------------
0 objective message statistic
1 Source report message statistic
2 Event report message statistic
Event (2 bytes): specified the Statistics message's subtypes, the
following subtypes are currently defined:
Value Meaning
----- -------
0 request Statistics message
1 begin Statistics message
2 Statistics data message
3 End Statistics message
Note that, the event value MUST be synchronized with the type of
comment header.

structure as described in Section 7.1.
For each CUSP message type, rules are defined that specify the set of
objects that the message can carry. We use the Backus-Naur Form
(BNF) (see [RFC5511]) to specify such rules. Square brackets refer
to optional sub-sequences. An implementation MUST form the CUSP
messages using the object ordering specified in this document.
7.1 Event TLV Format
A CUSP Event may include a set of one or more optional TLVs. All
CUSP Event TLVs have the following format:
Type: 2 bytes
Length: 2 bytes
Value: variable
A CUSP Event TLV consists of 2 bytes for the type, 2 bytes specifying
the TLV length, and a value field.

0 USER_TRAFFIC_INFORMATION
1 USER_DETECT_RESULT_INFORMATION
The Length field defines the length of the value portion in bytes.
The TLV is padded to 4-bytes alignment; padding is not included in
the Length field (so a 3-byte value would have a length of 3, but the
total size of the TLV would be 8 bytes).
