Internet-Draft OSPFv3-Traffic Engineering January 2007
1. Introduction
OSPFv3 has a very flexible mechanism for adding new LS types.
Unknown LS types are flooded properly based on the flooding scope
bits in the LS type [OSPFV3]. This document proposes the addition of
the Intra-Area-TE LSA to OSPFv3.
For Traffic Engineering, this document uses "Traffic Engineering
Extensions to OSPF" [TE] as a base for TLV definitions. New TLVs and
sub-TLVs are added to [TE] to extend TE capabilities to IPv6
networks. Some existing TLVs and sub-TLVs require clarification for
OSPFv3 applicability.
GMPLS [GMPLS] and the Diff-Serv MPLS Extensions [TE-DIFF] are based
on [TE]. These functions can also be extended to OSPFv3 by utilizing
the TLVs and sub-TLVs described in this document.
1.1. Requirements notation
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC2119
[RFC-KEYWORDS].

2. Intra-Area-TE-LSA
A new LS type is defined for the Intra-Area-TE LSA. This is
different from OSPFv2 Traffic Engineering [TE] where opaque LSAs are
used to advertise TE information [OPAQUE]. The LSA function code is
10, the U bit is set, and the scope is set to 01 for area-scoping.
When the U bit is set to 1, an OSPFv3 router must flood the LSA at
its defined flooding scope even if it does not recognize the LS type
[OSPFV3].

OSPFv3 Intra-Area-TE-LSA
The Link State ID of an Intra-Area-TE LSA is an arbitrary value used
to maintain multiple Traffic Engineering LSAs. The LSA ID has no
topological significance.
The format of the TLVs within the body of a router information LSA is
the same as the format used by the Traffic Engineering Extensions to
OSPF [TE]. The LSA payload consists of one or more nested Type/
Length/Value (TLV) triplets. The format of each TLV is:
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

Internet-Draft OSPFv3-Traffic Engineering January 2007
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
TLV Format
The Length field defines the length of the value portion in octets
(thus a TLV with no value portion would have a length of zero). The
TLV is padded to four-octet alignment; padding is not included in the
length field (so a three octet value would have a length of three,
but the total size of the TLV would be eight octets). Nested TLVs
are also 32-bit aligned. For example, a one byte value would have
the length field set to 1, and three octets of padding would be added
to the end of the value portion of the TLV. Unrecognized types are
ignored.
2.1. Intra-Area-TE-LSA Payload
An Intra-Area-TE-LSA contains one top-level TLV. There are two
applicable top-level TLVs:
2 - Link TLV
3 - Router IPv6 Address TLV
Ishiguro, et al. Expires July 7, 2007 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft OSPFv3-Traffic Engineering January 2007
3. Router IPv6 Address TLV
The Router IPv6 Address TLV advertises a reachable IPv6 address.
This is a stable IPv6 address that is always reachable if there is
connectivity to the OSPFv3 router.
The Router IPv6 Address TLV has type 3, length 16, and a value
containing a 16 octet local IPv6 address. It MUST appear in exactly
one Traffic Engineering LSA originated by an OSPFv3 router supporting
the TE extensions. The Router IPv6 Address TLV is a top-level TLV as
defined in Traffic Engineering Extensions to OSPF [TE] and only one
top-level TLV may be contained in an LSA.

portion in octets. For this TLV it is always 16.
Value A stable and routable IPv6 address.

Internet-Draft OSPFv3-Traffic Engineering January 2007
4. Link TLV
The Link TLV describes a single link and consists of a set of sub-
TLVs [TE]. All of the sub-TLVs in [TE] other than the Link ID sub-
TLV are applicable to OSPFv3. The Link ID sub-TLV can't be used in
OSPFv3 due to the protocol differences between OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.
Three new sub-TLVs for the Link TLV are defined:
18 - Neighbor ID (8 octets)
19 - Local Interface IPv6 Address (16N octets, where N is the
number of IPv6 addresses)
20 - Remote Interface IPv6 Address (16N octets, where N is the
number of IPv6 addresses)
The Neighbor ID Sub-TLV is mandatory for OSPF3 Traffic Engineering
support. It MUST appear exactly once in a Link TLV. All other sub-
TLVs defined in this document MAY occur at most once in a Link TLV.
4.1. Link ID Sub-TLV
The Link ID sub-TLV is used in OSPFv2 to identify the other end of
the link. In OSPFv3, the Neighbor ID sub-TLV MUST be used for link
identification. In OSPFv3, The Link ID sub-TLV SHOULD NOT be sent
and MUST be ignored upon receipt.
4.2. Neighbor ID Sub-TLV
In OSPFv2, the Link ID is used to identify the other end of a link.
In OSPFv3, the combination of Neighbor Interface ID and Neighbor
Router ID is used for neighbor link identification. Both are
advertised in the Neighbor ID Sub-TLV.
Neighbor Interface ID and Neighbor Router ID values are the same as
described in RFC 2740 [OSPFV3] A.4.3 Router-LSAs.

portion in octets. For this sub-TLV it is always 8.

4.3. Local Interface IPv6 Address Sub-TLV
The Local Interface IPv6 Address sub-TLV specifies the IPv6
address(es) of the interface corresponding to this link. If there
are multiple local addresses assigned to the link then they MAY all
be listed in this sub-TLV. Link-local addresses MUST NOT be included
in this sub-TLV.

portion in octets. For this sub-TLV, it MUST always be a
multiple of 16 octets dependent on the number of IPv6
global addresses advertised.
Value A list of one or more local IPv6 interface addresses
each consuming 16 octets.
Local Interface IPv6 Address Sub-TLV
4.4. Remote Interface IPv6 Address Sub-TLV
The Remote Interface IPv6 Address sub-TLV advertises the IPv6
address(es) associated with the neighbor's interface. This Sub-TLV
and the Local Interface IPv6 address Sub-TLV are used to discern
amongst parallel links between OSPFv3 routers. If the Link Type is
multi-access, the Remote Interface IPv6 Address MAY be set to ::.
Alternately, an implementation MAY choose not to send this sub-TLV.
Link-local addresses MUST NOT be advertised in this sub-TLV.
Neighbor addresses advertised in Link-LSAs with a prefix length of

5. Security Considerations
The function described in this document does not create any new
security issues for the OSPFv3 protocol. Security considerations for
the base OSPFv3 protocol are covered in [OSPFV3].

6. IANA Considerations
The following IANA assignments are to be made from existing
registries:
1. The OSPFv3 LSA type function code 10 needs to be assigned to the
OSPFv3 Intra-Area-TE-LSA.
2. The Router IPv6 Address TLV type 3 needs to be assigned from the
existing registry for OSPF TE TLVs.
3. The Neighbor ID Sub-TLV (18), Local Interface IPv6 Address Sub-
TLV (19), and Remote Interface IPv6 Address Sub-TLV (20), need to
be assigned from the existing registry for OSPF TE Sub-TLVs.
