and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any
time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference

2. Abstract
This document specifies encoding of extensions to the OSPF routing
protocol in support of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
(GMPLS). The description of the extensions is specified in [GMPLS-
ROUTING].
3. Summary for Sub-IP Area
3.1. Summary
This document specifies encoding of extensions to the OSPF routing
protocol in support of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
(GMPLS). The description of the extensions is specified in [GMPLS-
ROUTING].
3.2. Where does it fit in the Picture of the Sub-IP Work
This work fits squarely in either the CCAMP or OSPF box.
3.3. Why is it Targeted at this WG
This draft is targeted at the CCAMP or the OSPF WG, because this
draft specifies the extensions to the OSPF routing protocols in
support of GMPLS, because GMPLS is within the scope of the CCAMP WG,
and because OSPF is within the scope of the OSPF WG.
3.4. Justification
The WG should consider this document as it specifies the extensions
to the OSPF routing protocols in support of GMPLS.

4. Introduction
This document specifies extensions to the OSPF routing protocol in
support of carrying link state information for Generalized Multi-
Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS). The set of required enhancements to
OSPF are outlined in [GMPLS-ROUTING].
5. OSPF Routing Enhancements
In this section we define the enhancements to the TE properties of
GMPLS TE links that can be announced in OSPF TE LSAs. The Traffic
Engineering (TE) LSA, which is an opaque LSA with area flooding scope
[3], has only one top-level Type/Length/Value (TLV) triplet and has
one or more nested TLVs for extensibility. The top-level TLV can
take one of two values (1) Router Address or (2) Link. In this
document, we enhance the sub-TLVs for the Link TLV in support of
GMPLS. Specifically, we add the following sub-TLVs:
1. Outgoing Interface Identifier,
2. Incoming Interface Identifier,
3. Link Protection Type,
4. Shared Risk Link Group, and
5. Interface Switching Capability Descriptor.
This brings the list of sub-TLVs of the TE Link TLV to:
Sub-TLV Type Length Name
1 1 Link type
2 4 Link ID
3 variable Local interface IP address
4 variable Remote interface IP address
5 4 Traffic engineering metric
6 4 Maximum bandwidth
7 4 Maximum reservable bandwidth
8 32 Unreserved bandwidth
9 4 Resource class/color
11 4 Link Local Identifier
12 4 Link Remote Identifier
14 4 Link Protection Type
15 variable Interface Switching Capability Descriptor
16 variable Shared Risk Link Group
32768-32772 - Reserved for Cisco-specific extensions

5.1. Link Local Identifier
An Outgoing Interface Identifier is a sub-TLV of the Link TLV with
type 11, and length 4.
5.2. Link Remote Identifier
An Incoming Interface Identifier is a sub-TLV of the Link TLV with
type 12, and length 4.
5.3. Link Protection Type
The Link Protection Type is a sub-TLV of the Link TLV, with type 14,
and length of four octets, the first of which is a bit vector
describing the protection capabilities of the link. They are:
0x01 Extra Traffic
0x02 Unprotected
0x04 Shared
0x08 Dedicated 1:1
0x10 Dedicated 1+1
0x20 Enhanced
0x40 Reserved
0x80 Reserved
5.4. Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG)
The SRLG is a sub-TLV of the Link TLV with type 16. The length is the
length of the list in octets. The value is an unordered list of 32
bit numbers that are the SRLGs that the link belongs to. The format
of the value field is as shown below:

5.5. Interface Switching Capability Descriptor
The Interface Switching Capability Descriptor is a sub-TLV of the
Link TLV with type 15. The length is the length of value field in
octets. The format of the value field is as shown below:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The Switching Capability (Switching Cap) field contains one of the
following values:
draft-ccamp-ospf-gmpls-extensions-02.txt [Page 5]
Internet Draft draft-ccamp-ospf-gmpls-extensions-02.txt January 2002
1 Packet-Switch Capable-1 (PSC-1)
2 Packet-Switch Capable-2 (PSC-2)
3 Packet-Switch Capable-3 (PSC-3)
4 Packet-Switch Capable-4 (PSC-4)
51 Layer-2 Switch Capable (L2SC)
100 Time-Division-Multiplex Capable (TDM)
150 Lambda-Switch Capable (LSC)
200 Fiber-Switch Capable (FSC)
The Encoding field contains one of the values specified in Section
3.1.1 of [GMPLS-SIG].
Maximum LSP Bandwidth is encoded as a list of eight 4 octet fields in
the IEEE floating point format, with priority 0 first and priority 7
last. The units are bytes (not bits!) per second.
The content of the Switching Capability specific information field
depends on the value of the Switching Capability field.
When the Switching Capability field is PSC-1, PSC-2, PSC-3, or PSC-4,
the specific information includes Interface MTU and Minimum LSP
Bandwidth. The Interface MTU is encoded as a two octets integer. The
Minimum LSP Bandwidth is is encoded in a 4 octets field in the IEEE
floating point format. The units are bytes (not bits!) per second.
When the Switching Capability field is L2SC, there is no specific
information.
When the Switching Capability field is TDM, the specific information
includes Minimum LSP Bandwidth, which is is encoded in a 4 octets
field in the IEEE floating point format. The units are bytes (not
bits!) per second.
When the Switching Capability field is LSC, there is no specific
information.
The Interface Switching Capability Descriptor sub-TLV may occur more
than once within the Link TLV (this is needed to handle interfaces
that support multiple switching capabilities).
