Hi Thomas, Martin,
Ali’s request to IANA also included three route types defined in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-bess-evpn-bum-procedure-updates-01:
+ 9 - Per-Region I-PMSI A-D route
+ 10 - S-PMSI A-D route
+ 11 - Leaf A-D route
This is in collaboration with authors of other EVPN drafts that involve EVPN
route types. We believe it satisfies the following requirement:
c. The specifications of these code points must be stable; i.e., if
there is a change, implementations based on the earlier and later
specifications must be seamlessly interoperable.
We would like to proceed with an early allocation request.
Thanks.

Hi John,
Thanks for the extra information.
Just to make sure: do we have a common understanding that we need to follow
RFC7120 for EVPN route types (section 3.1) ?
Assuming so, the first step for asking for early allocation would be
(separately for each of these drafts) an email from an author/editor to us
chairs asking for the early allocation (see item 1 in section 3.1 of RFC7120),
and providing rationale that items (c) of section 2 are met (what you just did
for type 5 is the info we need). The answer by chairs or ADs for each of the
three drafts may end up being different ; i particular because they are not at
the same stage in the process (e.g. draft-sajassi-bess-evpn-igmp-mld-proxy is
not even yet a WG document).
Thanks,
-Thomas

Thomas,
The email from Ali to IANA is below (I understand that he subsequently amended
it to include RT-5). Route types 6, 7, and 8 are defined in:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sajassi-bess-evpn-igmp-mld-proxy-01.
Cisco, Juniper, and Nokia have had interoperable implementations of the RT-5
draft for several years, and all three are currently working on implementations
of the IGMP Proxy draft mentioned above.
Yours Irrespectively,
John

Subject: Request for Assignment of EVPN Route Types
Contact Name:
Ali Sajassi
Contact Email:
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
Type of Assignment:
EVPN Route Types
Registry:
EVPN Route Types
http://www.iana.org/assignments/evpn/evpn.xhtml#route-types
0x06 - Selective Multicast Ethernet Tag Route
0x07 - IGMP Join Synch Route
0x08 - IGMP Leave Synch Route
0x09 - Per-Region I-PMSI A-D route
0x0A - S-PMSI A-D route
0X0B - Leaf A-D route
Description:
These EVPN route types are defined in the following EVPN drafts and some of
these drafts are being implemented and thus the immediate need for allocation
of these code points for the purpose of interoperability:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sajassi-bess-evpn-igmp-mld-proxy-01
https://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-bess-evpn-bum-procedure-updates-00.txt
Additional Info:
Please refer to the above drafts.
Regards,
Ali
