Hi Bess, You may have seen me responding to various IESG Discusses and Comments, and to the Routing Directorate review for this draft.
This revision makes all of the associated changes. There is a fairly high level of change, but we believe that the changes are not very substantive. Please take some time to look at the diffs and shout if anything is alarming or unclear. Many thanks, Adrian -----Original Message----- From: I-D-Announce <[email protected]> On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: 02 June 2020 09:05 To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: I-D Action: draft-ietf-bess-nsh-bgp-control-plane-14.txt A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the BGP Enabled ServiceS WG of the IETF. Title : BGP Control Plane for the Network Service Header in Service Function Chaining Authors : Adrian Farrel John Drake Eric Rosen Jim Uttaro Luay Jalil Filename : draft-ietf-bess-nsh-bgp-control-plane-14.txt Pages : 68 Date : 2020-06-02 Abstract: This document describes the use of BGP as a control plane for networks that support Service Function Chaining (SFC). The document introduces a new BGP address family called the SFC Address Family Identifier / Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SFC AFI/SAFI) with two route types. One route type is originated by a node to advertise that it hosts a particular instance of a specified service function. This route type also provides "instructions" on how to send a packet to the hosting node in a way that indicates that the service function has to be applied to the packet. The other route type is used by a Controller to advertise the paths of "chains" of service functions, and to give a unique designator to each such path so that they can be used in conjunction with the Network Service Header defined in RFC 8300. This document adopts the SFC architecture described in RFC 7665.
