     Extensions to OSPF for Advertising Prefix Administrative Tags
                   draft-ietf-lsr-ospf-admin-tags-17

Abstract

   It is useful for routers in OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 routing domains to be
   able to associate tags with prefixes.  Previously, OSPFv2 and OSPFv3
   were relegated to a single tag and only for AS External and Not-So-
   Stubby-Area (NSSA) prefixes.  With the flexible encodings provided by
   OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attribute Advertisement and OSPFv3 Extended LSAs,
   multiple administrative tags may be advertised for all types of
   prefixes.  These administrative tags can be used for many
   applications including route redistribution policy, selective prefix
   prioritization, selective IP Fast-ReRoute (IPFRR) prefix protection,
   and many others.

   The ISIS protocol supports a similar mechanism that is described in
   RFC 5130.

1.  Introduction

   It is useful for routers in OSPFv2 [RFC2328] and OSPFv3 [RFC5340]
   routing domains to be able to associate tags with prefixes.
   Previously, OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 were relegated to a single tag and only
   for AS External and Not-So-Stubby-Area (NSSA) prefixes.  With the
   flexible encodings provided by OSPFv2 Prefix/Link Attribute
   Advertisement ([RFC7684]) and OSPFv3 Extended LSA ([RFC8362]),
   multiple administrative tags may be advertised for all types of
   prefixes.  These administrative tags can be used in many applications
   including (but not limited to):

   1.  Controlling which routes are redistributed into other protocols
       for re-advertisement.

Internet-Draft          OSPF Administrative Tags              March 2024

   2.  Prioritizing selected prefixes for faster convergence and
       installation in the forwarding plane.

   3.  Identifying selected prefixes for Loop-Free Alternative (LFA)
       protection.

   Throughout this document, OSPF is used when the text applies to both
   OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.  OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 is used when the text is
   specific to one version of the OSPF protocol.

   The definition of the 64-bit tag was considered but discard given
   that there is no strong requirement or use case.

   The ISIS protocol supports a similar mechanism that is described in
   RFC 5130 [RFC5130].

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.  32-Bit Administrative Tag Sub-TLV

   This document creates a new Administrative Tag Sub-TLV for OSPFv2 and
   OSPFv3.  This Sub-TLV specifies one or more 32-bit unsigned integers
   that may be associated with an OSPF advertised prefix.  The precise
   usage of these tags is beyond the scope of this document.

   The format of the 32-bit Administrative Tag TLV is as follows:

      Type     A 16-bit field set to TBD.

      Length   A 16-bit field that indicates the length of the value
               portion in octets and MUST be a multiple of 4 octets
               dependent on the number of administrative tags
               advertised. At least one administrative tag must be
               advertised.

      Value    A variable length list of one or more administrative
               tags.

                Figure 1: 32-bit Administrative Tag Sub-TLV

   This sub-TLV will carry one or more 32-bit unsigned integer values
   that will be used as administrative tags.  If the length is 0 or not
   a multiple of 4 octets, the sub-TLV MUST be ignored and the reception
   SHOULD be logged for further analysis (subject to rate-limiting).

3.  Administrative Tag Applicability

   The administrative tag TLV specified herein will be valid as a sub-
   TLV of the following TLVs specified in [RFC7684]:

   1.  Extended Prefix TLV advertised in the OSPFv2 Extended Prefix LSA

   The administrative tag TLV specified herein will be valid as a sub-
   TLV of the following TLVs specified in [RFC8362]:

   1.  Inter-Area-Prefix TLV advertised in the E-Inter-Area-Prefix-LSA

   2.  Intra-Area-Prefix TLV advertised in the E-Intra-Area-Prefix-LSA.

Internet-Draft          OSPF Administrative Tags              March 2024

   3.  External-Prefix TLV advertised in the E-AS-External-LSA and the
       E-NSSA-LSA

4.  Protocol Operation

   An OSPF router supporting this specification MUST be able to
   advertise and interpret at least one 32-bit tag for all type of
   prefixes.  An OSPF router supporting this specification MAY be able
   to advertise and propagate multiple 32-bit tags.  The maximum tags
   that an implementation supports is a local matter depending upon
   supported applications using prefix tags.

   When tags are advertised for AS External or NSSA LSA prefixes, the
   existing tag in the OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 AS-External-LSA and NSSA-LSA
   encodings SHOULD be utilized for the first tag.  This will facilitate
   backward compatibility with implementations that do not support this
   specification.

   An OSPF router supporting this specification SHOULD propagate
   administrative tags when acting as an Area Border Router and
   originating summary advertisements into other areas (unless inhibited
   by local policy Section 6).  Similarly, an OSPF router supporting
   this specification and acting as an ABR for a Not-So-Stubby Area
   (NSSA) SHOULD propagate tags when translating NSSA routes to AS
   External advertisements [RFC3101] (also subject to local policy
   Section 6).

   The semantics of the tag order are implementation-dependent.  That
   is, there is no implied meaning to the ordering of the tags that
   indicates a certain operation or set of operations need be performed
   based on the order of the tags.  Each tag SHOULD be treated as an
   autonomous identifier that MAY be used in policy to perform a policy
   action.  Whether or not tag A precedes or succeeds tag B SHOULD not
   change the meaning of the tag set.  The number of tags supported MAY
   limit the number of tags that are propagated.  When propagating
   multiple tags between areas as previously described, the order of the
   the tags SHOULD be preserved so that implementations supporting fewer
   tags will have a consistent view across areas.

   For configured area ranges, NSSA ranges, and configured aggregation
   of redistributed routes, tags from component routes SHOULD NOT be
   propagated to the summary.  Implementations SHOULD provide a
   mechanism to configure multiple tags for area ranges, NSSA ranges,
   and redistributed route summaries.

4.1.  Equal-Cost Multipath Applicability

   When multiple LSAs contribute to an OSPF route, it is possible that
   these LSAs will all have different tags.  In this situation, the OSPF
   router MUST associate the tags from one of the LSAs contributing a
   path and, if the implementation supports multiple tags, MAY associate
   tags from multiple contributing LSAs up to the maximum number of tags
   supported.  It is RECOMMENDED that tags from LSAs are added to the
   path in ascending order of LSA originator Router-ID.

5.  BGP-LS Advertisement

   BGP-LS [RFC9552] introduced the support for advertising
   administrative tags associated with prefixes using the BGP-LS IGP
   Route Tag TLV (TLV 1153) that is used to carry the OSPF
   Administrative Tags specified in this document.

6.  Management Considerations

   Implementations MAY include configuration of policies to inhibit the
   advertisement of tags on and redistributed prefixes.  Implementations
   MAY also include configuration of policies to filter the propagation
   of admin-tags between areas (OSPFv2 Extended Prefix LSAs, OSPFv3 E-
   Inter-Area-Prefix-LSAs, and translated OSPFv3 E-AS-External-LSAs).
   However, the default behavior SHOULD be to advertise or propagate the
   lesser number of all the tags associated with the prefix or the
   maximum number of tags supported by the implementation.

7.  YANG Data Model

   YANG [RFC7950] is a data definition language used to define the
   contents of a conceptual data store that allows networked devices to
   be managed using NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040].

   This section defines a YANG data model that can be used to configure
   and manage the prefix administrative tags defined in this document,
   which augments the OSPF YANG data model [RFC9129] and the OSPFv3
   Extended LSA YANG data model [I-D.ietf-lsr-ospfv3-extended-lsa-yang].

8.  Security Considerations

   This document describes a generic mechanism for advertising
   administrative tags for OSPF prefixes.  The administrative tags are
   generally less critical than the topology information currently
   advertised by the base OSPF protocol.  The security considerations
   for the generic mechanism are dependent on their application.  One
   such application is to control leaking of OSPF routes to other
   protocols (e.g., BGP [RFC4271]).  If an attacker were able to modify
   the admin tags associated with OSPF routes and they were being used
   for this application, such routes could be prevented from being
   advertised in routing domains where they are required (subtle denial
   or service) or they could be advertised into routing domains where
   they shouldn't be advertised (routing vulnerability).  Security
   considerations for the base OSPF protocol are covered in [RFC2328]
   and [RFC5340].

   The YANG modules specified in this document define a schema for data
   that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such
   as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040].  The lowest NETCONF layer
   is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure
   transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242].  The lowest RESTCONF layer
   is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS
   [RFC8446].

   The NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means
   to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a pre-
   configured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol
   operations and content.

   The following data nodes defined in the YANG module that are
   writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the
   default).  The modifications to these data nodes without proper
   protection can have a negative effect on network operations.

      /ospf:ospf/ospf:areas/ospf:area/ospf:interfaces/ospf:interface/
      admin-tags

      /ospf:ospf/ospf:areas/ospf:area/ospf:ranges/ospf:range/admin-tags

   Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered
   sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  Exposure of
   the OSPF link state database may be useful in mounting a Denial-of-
   Service (DoS) attacks.  These are the readable data nodes:

      /ospf:ospf/ospf:areas/ospf:area/ospf:interfaces/ospf:interface/
      admin-tags

9.  IANA Considerations

   The following values should be allocated from the OSPF Extended
   Prefix TLV Sub-TLV Registry [RFC7684]:

   *  TBD - 32-bit Administrative Tag TLV

   The following values should be allocated from the OSPFv3 Extended-LSA
   Sub-TLV Registry [RFC8362]:

   *  TBD - 32-bit Administrative Tag TLV

   The IANA is requested to assign one new URI from the IETF XML
   registry ([RFC3688]).  Authors are suggesting the following URI:

   URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ospf-admin-tags
   Registrant Contact: The IESG.
   XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace

   This document also requests one new YANG module name in the YANG
   Module Names registry ([RFC6020]) with the following suggestion :

   name: ietf-ospf-admin-tags
   namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-ospf-admin-tags
   prefix: ospf-admin-tags
   reference: RFC XXXX

10.  Acknowledgments
