Support for Resource Reservation Protocol Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE)
in Layer 3 Virtual Private Networks (L3VPNs)
Abstract
IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) provide connectivity between sites
across an IP/MPLS backbone. These VPNs can be operated using
BGP/MPLS, and a single Provider Edge (PE) node may provide access to
multiple customer sites belonging to different VPNs.
The VPNs may support a number of customer services, including RSVP
and Resource Reservation Protocol Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE)
traffic. This document describes how to support RSVP-TE between
customer sites when a single PE supports multiple VPNs and labels are
not used to identify VPNs between PEs.

1. Introduction
Service Providers would like to use BGP/MPLS IP VPNs [RFC4364] to
support connections between Customer Edge (CE) sites. As described
in [RFC5824], these connections can be MPLS Traffic Engineered (TE)
Label Switched Paths (LSPs) established using extensions to RSVP
[RFC3209] for a number of different deployment scenarios. The
requirements for supporting MPLS-TE LSP connections across BGP/MPLS
IP VPNs are documented in [RFC5824].
In order to establish a customer MPLS-TE LSP over a BGP/MPLS IP VPN,
it is necessary for the RSVP-TE control messages, including the Path
and Resv messages described in [RFC3209], to be handled appropriately
by the Provider Edge (PE) routers. [RFC4364] allows RSVP messages
sent within a VPN's context to be handled just like any other VPN
data. In such a solution, the RSVP-TE component at a PE that sends
messages toward a remote PE must process the messages in the context
of the VPN and must ensure that the messages are correctly labeled.
Similarly, when a message sent across the core is received by a PE,
both labels must indicate the correct VPN context.
Implementation of the standards-based solution described in the
previous paragraph is possible, but requires proper support on the
PE. In particular, a PE must be able to process RSVP messages within
the context of the appropriate VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF).
This may be easy to achieve in some implementations, but in others,
it is not so easy.
This document defines experimental formats and mechanisms that follow
a different approach. The documented approach enables the VPN
identifier to be carried in the RSVP-TE protocol message so that
there is no requirement for label-based VRF identification on the PE.
The experiment proposed by this document does not negate the label-
based approach supported by [RFC4364]. The experiment is intended to
enable research into alternate methods of supporting RSVP-TE within
VPNs.
1.1. Conventions
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 RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
2. Motivation
If multiple BGP/MPLS IP VPNs are supported at the same PE, new RSVP-
TE extensions are required so that RSVP-TE control messages from the
CEs can be handled appropriately by the PE.
2.1. Network Example
Figure 1 ("Customer MPLS TE LSPs in the context of BGP/MPLS IP VPNs")
shows two VPNs supported by a core IP/MPLS network. Both VPNs have
customer sites on the two PEs shown in the figure. The customer
sites operate MPLS-TE LSPs.
Here, we make the following set of assumptions:
o VPN1 and VPN2 are for different customers.
o CE1 and CE3 are head-end routers.
o CE2 and CE4 are tail-end routers.
o The same address (e.g., 192.0.2.1) is assigned at CE2 and CE4.

Figure 1: Customer MPLS TE LSPs in the context of BGP/MPLS IP VPNs
Consider that customers in VPN1 and VPN2 would like to establish
customer MPLS-TE LSPs between their sites (i.e., between CE1 and
CE2, and between CE3 and CE4). In this situation, the following
RSVP-TE Path messages would be sent:
1. CE1 would send a Path message to PE1 to establish the MPLS-TE
LSP (VPN1) between CE1 and CE2.
2. CE3 would also send a Path message to PE1 to establish the
MPLS-TE LSP (VPN2) between CE1 and CE2.
After receiving each Path message, PE1 can identify the customer
context for each Path message from the incoming interface over which
the message was received. PE1 forwards the messages to PE2 using the
routing mechanisms described in [RFC4364] and [RFC4659].
When the Path messages are received at PE2, that node needs to
distinguish the messages and determine which applies to VPN1 and
which to VPN2 so that the right forwarding state can be established
and so that the messages can be passed on to the correct CE.
Although the messages arrive at PE2 with an MPLS label that
identifies the VPN, the messages are delivered to the RSVP-TE
component on PE2, and the context of the core VPN LSP (i.e., the
label) is lost. Some RSVP-TE protocol mechanism is therefore needed
to embed the VPN identifier within the RSVP-TE message.
Similarly, Resv messages sent from PE2 to PE1 need an RSVP-TE
mechanism to assign them to the correct VPN.
3. Protocol Extensions and Procedures
This section defines the additional RSVP-TE objects to meet the
requirements described in Section 2. These objects are new variants
of the SESSION, SENDER_TEMPLATE, and FILTERSPEC objects. They act as
identifiers and allow PEs to distinguish Path/Resv messages per VPN
in the context of BGP/MPLS IP VPNs. Section 3.1 defines the new
object types, and Section 3.2 defines the specific procedures for
handling RSVP messages.
3.1. Object Definitions
This experiment will be carried out using the following private Class
Types. This document identifies these Class Types as
"C-Type = EXPn".
Class = SESSION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP1
Class = SESSION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 C-Type = EXP2
Class = SENDER_TEMPLATE, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP3
Class = SENDER_TEMPLATE, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 C-Type = EXP4
Class = FILTER SPECIFICATION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP5
Class = FILTER SPECIFICATION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 C-Type = EXP6
3.1.1. LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 and LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 SESSION Object
The LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 (or LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6) SESSION object
appears in RSVP-TE messages that ordinarily contain a SESSION object
and that are sent between the ingress PE and egress PE in either
direction. This object MUST NOT be included in any RSVP-TE message
that is sent outside of the provider's backbone.
The LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 SESSION object is analogous to the
LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 SESSION object, using a VPN-IPv6 address
([RFC4659]) instead of a VPN-IPv4 address ([RFC4364]).
Experimenters MUST ensure that there is no conflict between the
private Class Types used for this experiment and other Class Types
used by the PEs.
The formats of the SESSION objects are as follows:
Class = SESSION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP1
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

| |
+ Extended Tunnel ID (16 bytes) +
| |

| |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The VPN-IPv4 or VPN-IPv6 tunnel endpoint address field contains an
address of the VPN-IPv4 or VPN-IPv6 address family encoded as
specified in [RFC4364] or [RFC4659], respectively.
The Tunnel ID and Extended Tunnel ID are identical to the same fields
in the LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4 and LSP_TUNNEL_IPv6 SESSION objects as per
[RFC3209].
3.1.2. LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 and LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 SENDER_TEMPLATE
Objects
The LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 (or LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6) SENDER_TEMPLATE
object appears in RSVP-TE messages that ordinarily contain a
SENDER_TEMPLATE object and that are sent between ingress PE and
egress PE in either direction, such as Path, PathError, and PathTear
messages. The object MUST NOT be included in any RSVP-TE messages
that are sent outside of the provider's backbone.
The format of the object is as follows:
Class = SENDER_TEMPLATE, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP3
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

| |
+ +
| |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| MUST be zero | LSP ID |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The VPN-IPv4 or VPN-IPv6 tunnel sender address field contains an
address of the VPN-IPv4 or VPN-IPv6 address family encoded as
specified in [RFC4364] or [RFC4659], respectively.
The LSP ID is identical to the LSP ID field in the LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4
and LSP_TUNNEL_IPv6 SENDER_TEMPLATE objects as per [RFC3209].
3.1.3. LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 and LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 FILTER_SPEC Objects
The LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 (or LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6) FILTER_SPEC object
appears in RSVP-TE messages that ordinarily contain a FILTER_SPEC
object and that are sent between ingress PE and egress PE in either
direction, such as Resv, ResvError, and ResvTear messages. The
object MUST NOT be included in any RSVP-TE messages that are sent
outside of the provider's backbone.
Class = FILTER SPECIFICATION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 C-Type = EXP5
The format of the LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 FILTER_SPEC object is
identical to the LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4 SENDER_TEMPLATE object.
Class = FILTER SPECIFICATION, LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 C-Type = EXP6
The format of the LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 FILTER_SPEC object is
identical to the LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 SENDER_TEMPLATE object.
3.1.4. VPN-IPv4 and VPN-IPv6 RSVP_HOP Objects
The formats of the VPN-IPv4 and VPN-IPv6 RSVP_HOP objects are
identical to the RSVP_HOP objects described in [RFC6016].
3.2. Handling the Messages
This section describes how the RSVP-TE messages are handled.
Handling of these messages assumes that, in the context of BGP/MPLS
IP VPNs, the ingress and egress PEs have RSVP-TE capabilities.
3.2.1. Path Message Processing at the Ingress PE
When a Path message arrives at the ingress PE (PE1 in Figure 1), the
PE needs to establish suitable Path state and forward the Path
message on to the egress PE (PE2 in Figure 1). Below, we describe
the message handling process at the ingress PE.
1. CE1 sends a Path message to PE1 to establish the MPLS-TE LSP
(VPN1) between CE1 and CE2. The Path message is addressed to
the eventual destination (the receiver at the remote customer
site) and carries the IP Router Alert option, in accordance
with [RFC2205]. The ingress PE must recognize the router
alert, intercept these messages, and process them as RSVP-TE
signaling messages.
2. When the ingress PE receives a Path message from a CE that is
addressed to the receiver, the VRF that is associated with the
incoming interface can be identified. (This step does not
deviate from current behavior.)
3. The tunnel endpoint address of the receiver is looked up in the
appropriate VRF, and the BGP next hop for that tunnel endpoint
address is identified. The next hop is the egress PE.
4. A new LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 SESSION object is
constructed, containing the Route Distinguisher (RD) that is
part of the VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 route prefix for this tunnel
endpoint address, and the IPv4/IPv6 tunnel endpoint address
from the original SESSION object.
5. A new LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/IPv6 SENDER_TEMPLATE object is
constructed, with the original IPv4/IPv6 tunnel sender address
from the incoming SENDER_TEMPLATE plus the RD that is used by
the PE to advertise the prefix for the customers VPN.
6. A new Path message is sent containing all the objects from the
original Path message, replacing the original SESSION and
SENDER_TEMPLATE objects with the new
LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 type objects. This Path message
is sent directly to the egress PE (the next hop that was
determined in Step 3) without the IP Router Alert option.
3.2.2. Path Message Processing at the Egress PE
Below, we describe the message handling process at the egress PE.
1. When a Path message arrives at the egress PE (PE2 in Figure 1),
it is addressed to the PE itself and is handed to RSVP for
processing.
2. The router extracts the RD and IPv4/IPv6 address from the
LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 SESSION object and determines the
local VRF context by finding a matching VPN-IPv4 prefix with
the specified RD that has been advertised by this router into
BGP.
3. The entire incoming RSVP message, including the VRF
information, is stored as part of the Path state.
4. The egress PE can now construct a Path message that differs
from the Path message it received in the following ways:
a. Its tunnel endpoint address is the IP address extracted from
the SESSION object.
b. The SESSION and SENDER_TEMPLATE objects have been converted
back to IPv4-type/IPv6-type by discarding the attached RD.
c. The RSVP_HOP object contains the IP address of the outgoing
interface of the egress PE and a Logical Interface Handle
(LIH), as per normal RSVP processing.
5. The egress PE then sends the Path message towards its tunnel
endpoint address over the interface identified in Step 4c.
This Path message carries the IP Router Alert option, as
required by [RFC2205].
3.2.3. Resv Processing at the Egress PE
When a receiver at the customer site originates a Resv message for
the session, normal RSVP procedures apply until the Resv, making its
way back towards the sender, arrives at the "egress" PE (it is the
egress with respect to the direction of data flow, i.e., PE2 in
Figure 1). Upon arriving at PE2, the SESSION and FILTER_SPEC objects
in the Resv message, and the VRF in which the Resv was received, are
used to find the matching Path state that was stored previously.
The PE constructs a Resv message to send to the RSVP HOP stored in
the Path state, i.e., the ingress PE (PE1 in Figure 1). The LSP
TUNNEL IPv4/IPv6 SESSION object is replaced with the same
LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 SESSION object received in the Path
message. The LSP TUNNEL IPv4/IPv6 FILTER_SPEC object is replaced
with a LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 FILTER_SPEC object, which copies
the VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 address from the LSP TUNNEL SENDER_TEMPLATE
received in the matching Path message.
The Resv message MUST be addressed to the IP address contained within
the RSVP_HOP object in the Path message.
3.2.4. Resv Processing at the Ingress PE
When the ingress PE receives a Resv message (the ingress with respect
to data flow, i.e., PE1 in Figure 1), the PE determines the local VRF
context and associated Path state for this Resv message by decoding
the received SESSION and FILTER_SPEC objects. It is now possible to
generate a Resv message to send to the appropriate CE. The Resv
message sent to the ingress CE contains the LSP TUNNEL IPv4/IPv6
SESSION and LSP TUNNEL FILTER_SPEC objects, which are derived from
the appropriate Path state.
3.2.5. Other RSVP Messages
Processing of other RSVP messages (i.e., PathError, PathTear,
ResvError, ResvTear, and ResvConf) generally follows the rules
defined in [RFC2205]. The following additional rules MUST be
observed for messages transmitted within the VPN, i.e., between the
PEs:
o The SESSION, SENDER_TEMPLATE, and FILTER_SPEC objects MUST be
converted from LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4/LSP_TUNNEL_IPv6 [RFC3209] to
LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv4/LSP_TUNNEL_VPN-IPv6 form, respectively, and
back again, in the same manner as described above for Path and
Resv messages.
o The appropriate type of RSVP_HOP object (VPN-IPv4 or VPN-IPv6)
MUST be used, as described in Section 8.4 of [RFC6016].
o Depending on the type of RSVP_HOP object received from the
neighbor, the message MUST be MPLS encapsulated or IP
encapsulated.
o The matching state and VRF MUST be determined by decoding the
corresponding RD and IPv4 or IPv6 address in the SESSION and
FILTER_SPEC objects.
o The message MUST be directly addressed to the appropriate PE,
without using the Router Alert Option.
4. Management Considerations
MPLS-TE-based BGP/MPLS IP VPNs are based on a peer model. If an
operator would like to configure a new site to an existing VPN,
configuration of both the CE router and the attached PE router is
required. The operator is not required to modify the configuration
of PE routers connected to other sites or to modify the configuration
of other VPNs.
4.1. Impact on Network Operation
It is expected that the use of the extensions specified in this
document will not significantly increase the level of operational
traffic.
Furthermore, the additional extensions described in this document
will have no impact on the operation of existing resiliency
mechanisms available within MPLS-TE.
5. Security Considerations
This document defines RSVP-TE extensions for BGP/MPLS IP VPNs. The
general security issues for RSVP-TE are described in [RFC3209],
[RFC4364] addresses the specific security considerations of BGP/MPLS
VPNs. General security considerations for MPLS are described in
[RFC5920].
In order to secure the control plane, techniques such as the TCP
Authentication Option (TCP-AO) [RFC5925] MAY be used authenticate BGP
messages.
To ensure the integrity of an RSVP request, the RSVP Authentication
mechanisms defined in [RFC2747], and updated by [RFC3097], SHOULD be
used.
