Advertising Layer 2 Bundle Member Link Attributes in OSPF
Abstract
There are deployments where the Layer 3 (L3) interface on which OSPF
operates is a Layer 2 (L2) interface bundle. Existing OSPF
advertisements only support advertising link attributes of the L3
interface. If entities external to OSPF wish to control traffic
flows on the individual physical links that comprise the L2 interface
bundle, link attribute information for the bundle members is
required.
This document defines the protocol extensions for OSPF to advertise
the link attributes of L2 bundle members. The document also
specifies the advertisement of these OSPF extensions via the Border
Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS) and thereby updates RFC 9085.

1. Introduction
There are deployments where the L3 interface on which an OSPF
adjacency is established is a L2 interface bundle, for instance, a
Link Aggregation Group (LAG) [IEEE802.1AX]. This reduces the number
of adjacencies that need to be maintained by the OSPF protocol in
cases where there are parallel links between the neighbors. Entities
external to OSPF such as Path Computation Elements (PCEs) [RFC4655]
may wish to control traffic flows on individual L2 member links of
the underlying bundle interface (e.g., LAG). To do so, link
attribute information for individual bundle members is required. The
protocol extensions defined in this document provide the means to
advertise this information.
This document defines sub-TLVs to advertise link attribute
information for each of the L2 bundle members that comprise the L3
interface on which OSPF operates. Similar capabilities were
introduced for IS-IS in [RFC8668].
[RFC8665] and [RFC8666] introduced the Adjacency Segment Identifier
(Adj-SID) link attribute for OSPFv2 and OSPFv3, respectively, which
can be used as an instruction to forward traffic over a specific link
[RFC8402]. This document enables the advertisement of the Adj-SIDs
using the same Adj-SID sub-TLV at the granularity level of each L2
bundle member link so that traffic may be steered over that specific
member link.
Note that the advertisements at the L2 bundle member link level
defined in this document are intended to be provided to entities
external to OSPF and do not alter or change the OSPF route
computation. The following items are intentionally not defined in
and are outside the scope of this document:
* What link attributes will be advertised. This is determined by
the needs of the external entities.
* A minimum or default set of link attributes.
* How these attributes are configured.
* How the advertisements are used.
* What impact the use of these advertisements may have on traffic
flow in the network.
* How the advertisements are passed to external entities.
BGP Link State (BGP-LS) [RFC7752] was extended for the advertisement
of L2 bundle members and their attributes in [RFC9085], which covered
only IS-IS. This document updates [RFC9085] by specifying the
advertisement from OSPF (refer to Section 3).
1.1. Requirements Language
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. L2 Bundle Member Attributes
A new L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV is introduced to advertise
L2 bundle member attributes in both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. In the case
of OSPFv2, this sub-TLV is an optional sub-TLV of the OSPFv2 Extended
Link TLV that is used to describe link attributes via the OSPFv2
Extended Link Opaque LSA (Link State Advertisement) [RFC7684]. In
the case of OSPFv3, this sub-TLV is an optional sub-TLV of the
Router-Link TLV of the OSPFv3 E-Router-LSA [RFC8362].
When the OSPF adjacency is associated with an L2 bundle interface,
this sub-TLV is used to advertise the underlying L2 bundle member
links along with their respective link attributes. The inclusion of
this information implies that the identified link is a member of the
L2 bundle associated with an OSPF L3 link and that the member link is
operationally up. Therefore, advertisements of member links MUST NOT
be done when the member link becomes operationally down or is no
longer a member of the identified L2 bundle.
The advertisement of the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV may be
asymmetric for an OSPF link, depending on the underlying L2
connectivity, i.e., advertised by the router on only one end.
The L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV has 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

Figure 1: L2 Bundle Member Attributes Sub-TLV Format
Where:
Type: 24 for OSPFv2 and 29 for OSPFv3
Length: The total length (in octets) of the value portion of the TLV
including nested sub-TLVs.
L2 Bundle Member Descriptor: A 4-octet link-local identifier for the
member link. This identifier is described as "link local
identifier" in [RFC4202] and used as "Local Interface ID" in
[RFC8510].
Link attributes for L2 bundle member links are advertised as sub-TLVs
of the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV.
In the case of OSPFv2, the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV shares
the sub-TLV space of the Extended Link TLV, and the sub-TLVs of the
Extended Link TLV MAY be used to describe the attributes of the
member link. Table 1 lists sub-TLVs and their applicability for L2
bundle member links. The sub-TLVs that are not applicable MUST NOT
be used as sub-TLVs for the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV.
Specifications that introduce new sub-TLVs of the Extended Link TLV
MUST indicate their applicability to the L2 Bundle Member Attributes
sub-TLV. Typically, attributes that have L3 semantics would not be
applicable, but L2 attributes would apply. An implementation MUST
ignore any sub-TLVs received that are not applicable in the context
of the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV.

Table 2: Applicability of OSPFv3 Link Attribute Sub-TLVs for L2
Bundle Members
Applicability:
Y: This sub-TLV MAY appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-
TLV.
N: This sub-TLV MUST NOT appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes
sub-TLV.
X: This is not a sub-TLV of the Router-Link TLV; it MUST NOT appear
in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV.
3. BGP-LS Advertisement
The BGP-LS extensions for the advertisement of L2 bundle members and
their attributes were specified in [RFC9085]. Using the OSPF L2
Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV defined in this document, the L2
bundle member information can now be advertised from OSPF into BGP-LS
on the same lines as discussed for IS-IS in Section 2.2.3 of
[RFC9085].
4. IANA Considerations
IANA has allocated the following code point in the "OSPFv2 Extended
Link TLV Sub-TLVs" subregistry under the "Open Shortest Path First v2
(OSPFv2) Parameters" registry:
Value: 24
Designation: L2 Bundle Member Attributes
IANA has allocated the following code point in the "OSPFv3 Extended-
LSA Sub-TLVs" subregistry under the "Open Shortest Path First v3
(OSPFv3) Parameters" registry:
Value: 29
Description: L2 Bundle Member Attributes
IANA has also introduced a column titled "L2BM" in the "OSPFv2
Extended Link TLV Sub-TLVs" registry. The "L2BM" column indicates
applicability to the L2 Bundle Attributes Member sub-TLV. The
initial allocations (Y/N) for this column are indicated in Table 1.
The following explanatory note has been added to the registry:
| The "L2BM" column indicates applicability to the L2 Bundle
| Attributes Member sub-TLV. The options for the "L2BM" column are:
|
| Y - This sub-TLV MAY appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes
| sub-TLV.
|
| N - This sub-TLV MUST NOT appear in the L2 Bundle Member
| Attributes sub-TLV.
Similarly, IANA has introduced a column titled "L2BM" in the "OSPFv3
Extended-LSA Sub-TLVs" registry. The "L2BM" column indicates
applicability to the L2 Bundle Attributes Member sub-TLV. The
initial allocations (Y/N/X) for this column are indicated in Table 2.
The following explanatory note has been added to the registry:
| The "L2BM" column indicates applicability to the L2 Bundle
| Attributes Member sub-TLV. The options for the "L2BM" column are:
|
| Y - This sub-TLV MAY appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes
| sub-TLV.
|
| N - This sub-TLV MUST NOT appear in the L2 Bundle Member
| Attributes sub-TLV.
|
| X - This is not a sub-TLV of the Router-Link TLV; it MUST NOT
| appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV.
Future allocations in these two registries are required to indicate
the applicability of the introduced sub-TLV to the L2 Bundle Member
Attributes sub-TLV. IANA has added this document as a reference for
both registries.
5. Operational Considerations
Implementations MUST NOT enable the advertisement of L2 bundle member
links and their attributes in OSPF LSAs by default and MUST provide a
configuration option to enable their advertisement on specific links.
[RFC9129] specifies the base YANG data model for OSPF. The required
configuration and operational elements for this feature are expected
to be introduced as augmentation to this base YANG data model for
OSPF.
6. Security Considerations
The OSPF protocol has supported the advertisement of link attribute
information, including link identifiers, for many years. The
advertisements defined in this document are identical to the existing
advertisements defined in [RFC3630], [RFC4203], [RFC5329], [RFC7471],
[RFC8665], and [RFC8666], but they are associated with L2 links that
are part of a bundle interface on which the OSPF protocol operates.
Therefore, the security considerations of these documents are
applicable, and there are no new security issues introduced by the
extensions in this document.
As always, if the protocol is used in an environment where
unauthorized access to the physical links on which OSPF packets are
sent occurs, then attacks are possible. The use of authentication as
defined in [RFC5709], [RFC7474], [RFC4552], and [RFC7166] is
recommended for preventing such attacks.
