Matthew and Stephane,

We’ve had lots of discussion on the draft via the mailing list and the IETF 
105, 106 .  We have made changes to the draft to address comments from the 
discussion.

Can you please call WG Adoption for draft-dunbar-bess-bgp-sdwan-usage-05?
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dunbar-bess-bgp-sdwan-usage/


Thank you very much.

Huaimo,

Thank you very much for the suggestion.
Do you mean using the similar approach as VPN Label carried by NLRI Path 
Attribute [RFC8277] for SDWAN Segmentation Identifier?
If yes, the UPDATE message should not use the MPLS VPN SAFI (=128) to avoid 
confusion, right?

Hi Linda,

    It seems that a label may be used as an "Identifier" to differentiate 
SD-WAN Segmentation.

Best Regards,
Huaimo

BGP Experts,



Do you know if  there is any problem of using  Private AS as  "Identifier" to 
differentiate SD-WAN Segmentation? Here is the discussion in BESS WG. Want to 
get IDR WG feedbacks for this question.



Thank you.

Linda

Based on Basil’s comment on needing an identifier to differentiate SDWAN 
instances, I added a section to  draft-dunbar-bess-bgp-sdwan-usage . Want to 
hear people’s feedback.



3.1    Requirements
3.1.1Supporting Multiple SDWAN Segmentations

The term “network segmentation” is used extensively in SDWAN deployment. In 
general (and in this document), the “Network Segmentation” is referring to the 
process of dividing the network into logical sub-networks using isolation 
techniques on a forwarding device such as a switch, router, or firewall. For a 
homogeneous network, such as MPLS VPN or Layer 2 network, VRF or VLAN are used 
to separate network segments.

As SDWAN is an overlay network arching over multiple types of networks, it is 
important to have distinct identifiers to differentiate SDWAN network instances 
(or segmentations). When different SDWAN network segments do not have their own 
assigned AS numbers, a very easy way is to use Private AS numbers, in the range 
of 64512 to 65535, to differentiate different SDWAN segmentations. When using 
BGP to control the SDWAN networks, the Private AS numbers are carried by the 
BGP UPDATE messages to their corresponding RRs.



Greatly appreciate any feedback on this description.



Is there any scenario that Private AS cannot be used?



Thank you very much.

Hi Linda;



The SD-WAN Segment is part of the SD-WAN fabric; in other words, there could be 
more than one Segment over a single underlay depending on the design and the 
business requirements.



Each Segment represents a single and an isolated L3 domain; therefore, I 
suggested that we may need to include the Segment ID in the BGP update messages 
in order to identify and build the routing the table for each Segment (based on 
the Segment ID).



Hope this helps.



Regards;



Basil

Basil,



Thank you very much for the comments.

Your suggested wording change will be incorporated in the next revision.



As for your suggestion of Segment and Segment ID of a SDWAN node (to be 
included in the BGP UPDATE), does the “Segment” mean the different Underlay?

In the figure below, C-PE1 has 3 WAN ports: 2 to MPLS network and 1 to Public 
Internet.

Do you mean C-PE1 has 3 WAN “segments”?

If not, can you elaborate more?

Thanks, Linda

Hello Linda;



I haven’t gone through the entire document; however, I have the following quick 
comments



  1.  Regarding the following paragraph:



1.       Augment of transport, which refers to utilizing overlay paths over 
different underlay networks. Very often there are multiple parallel overlay 
paths between any two SDWAN edges, some of which are private networks over 
which traffic can traverse without encryption, others require encryption, e.g. 
over untrusted public networks.



The traffic that traverses the privet networks can be either encrypted or 
unecrypted (in other words, the assumption that the traffic is NOT encrypted is 
not always correct). I would change the parpagaph to the following (for 
clarity):



1.       Augment of transport, which refers to utilizing overlay paths over 
different underlay networks. Very often there are multiple parallel overlay 
paths between any two SDWAN edges, some of which are private networks over 
which traffic can traverse with or without encryption, others require 
encryption, e.g. over untrusted public networks.





  1.  Another thing that we need to discuss is the Segment ID; each Segment (at 
the SD-WAN Edge) MUST have an ID. The SD-WAN Policy will map the Application 
Flow to the Segment. Since the Segment is a “routing domain”, the BGP update 
will be exchanged with the memebers of a particular Segment.



As such: Should we include the Segment ID as an attribute in the BGP update 
messages? Perhaps we need to further discuss this in details.



Any feedback is welcomed and it’s highly appreciated.



Regards;



Basil

BESS participants:



“SDWAN” networks is characterized by:

1.       Augment of transport, which refers to utilizing overlay paths over 
different underlay networks. Very often there are multiple parallel overlay 
paths between any two SDWAN edges, some of which are private networks over 
which traffic can traverse without encryption, others require encryption, e.g. 
over untrusted public networks.

2.       Enable direct Internet access from remote sites, instead hauling all 
traffic to Corporate HQ for centralized policy control.

3.       Some traffic are routed based on application IDs instead of based on 
destination IP addresses.

 describes examples of using BGP UPDATE messages to achieve the SDWAN 
Application Based Segmentation,  assuming that the applications are assigned 
with unique IP addresses.

In the Figure below, the following BGP Updates can be advertised to ensure that 
Payment Application only communicates with the Payment Gateway:



[cid:[email protected]]



BGP UPDATE #1 from C-PE2 to RR for the RED P2P topology (only propagated to 
Payment GW node:

-        MP-NLRI Path Attribute:

        *   30.1.1.x/24

-        Tunnel Encap Path Attribute

        *   IPsec Attributes for PaymentGW ->C-PE2



BGP UPDATE #2 from C-PE2 to RR for the routes to be reached by Purple:

-        MP-NLRI Path Attribute:

        *   10.1.x.x
        *   12.4.x.x

-        TunnelEncap Path Attribute:

        *   Any node to C-PE2





Your feedback is greatly appreciated.



Thank you very much.
