Introduction Version 2 of BGP flow specification (FSv2) has a series of foundational documents ([I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic], this document, [I-D.hares-idr-fsv2-more-ip-actions], and [draft-hares-idr-fsv2-non- ip]) plus drafts on specific filter components, actions, or groups of filter components and actions. The remainder of this introductory section provides a introduction to FSv2. Section 2 contains a description of the format of the FSv2 NLRI with the Extended IP Filters TLV. The Extended IP Filters TLV allows the user to specify new IP Filters components and a group of IP Filter components. The concept of a group of filter components allows an BGP peer originating a FSv2 NLRI with the Extended IP Filter TLV to pass what components the originating BGP Peer expects will be supported by the BGP Peers receiving the FSv2 Extended Filter TLV. The group field is designed to aid upgrades to additional component by providing a simple check the FSv2 component range passed in the Extended Filters TLV. Groups can be register with IANA in either a Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 2] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 FCFS range or IETF Consensus range. Section 2 also provides templates for defining: a) new components to be passed in the Extended IP Filter group and b) new Extended IP Filter groups. Section 3 provides two new Filters approved in IDR WG drafts. Section 3.1 provides definitions for new components: TTL, SID in IPv6 Segment Routing header (SRH). These two components were defined in the original specification for Flow Specification v2 ([I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-v2]). Section 3.2 also provides prototypes for a few existing components to aid authors of IDR drafts (current or proposed) examples to aid their quick use of the Extended IP Filters. Section 4 provides information on Validation and Error handling for the Extended Filters TLV. Section 5 contains manageability considerations for FSv2 with Extended IP Filters TLV. Section 6 contains IANA considerations and section 7 contains security considerations. 1.1. FSv2 background FSv2 specifies new user-ordered filters that will be used with the IPv4 (AFI=1) and IPv6 (AFI=2) 2 new SAFIs (TBD1, TBD2) for FSv2 to be used with 5 AFIs (1, 2, 6, 25, and 31) to allow user-ordered lists of traffic match filters for user-ordered traffic match actions encoded in Communities (Extended or Wide Communities). The first SAFI (TBD1) is used for IP forwarding, and the second SAFI (TBD2) will be used with VPNs. The supported AFI/SAFI combinations in FSV2 are: * IPV4 (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD1), * IPv6 (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD1), * L2 (AFI=6, SAFI=TBD1), * SFC (AFI=31, SAFI=TBD1), * BGP/MPLS IPv4 VPN (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD2), * BGP/MPLS IPV6 VPN (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD2), * BGP/MPLS L2VPN (AFI=25, SAFI=TBD2), and * SFC VPN (AFI=31, SAFI=TBD2) FSv1 and FSv2 use different AFI/SAFIs to send flow specification filters. Since BGP route selection is performed per AFI/SAFI, this approach can be termed “ships in the night” based on AFI/SAFI. Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 The full FSv2 specification ( Version 2 of BGP flow specification (FSv2) was original defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-v2]. contains more than initial implementers desired to put in a single upgrade. Therefore, the original FSv2 draft remains an WG draft, but the content will be split out into groups of functions that can be easily deployed as upgrades to FSv1. The upgrades will come in the following groups: FSv2 IP Basic ([I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic]): This specification defines the FSv2 NLRI that allows user ordering of filters plus in a IP Basic TLV which only allows FSv1 components. FSv2 actions are implemented in Extended Communities (FSv2-EC). FSv2 defines how the actions defined in FSv2-EC are ordered. Multiple FSv2-EC actions can be attached to a single filter component, so FSv2 defines an Action Chain Ordering community to define what happens if one of these multiple actions fails. All FSv2 implementations must support the minimal subset in this document. FSv2 IP Extended Filters (this document): This document defines the Extended IP Filters TLV to allow easy addition of FSv2 filters. The original FSv2 had definitions [I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-v2] for FSv2 TTL and SRv6 Header (SRH) filter so these components are included in this specification. FSv2 Individual drafts for IP Extended Filters: These drafts should utilize the template given in section 2.2 Current proposals for Extended IP Filters can request component identifier(s) be included in this draft's BGP FSv2 Component registry list. Grouping of Extended IP Filter can be registered in the Extended IP Filter Groups (see section 2.3). FSv2 IP Extended Actions ([I-D.hares-idr-fsv2-more-ip-actions]): This document defines a FSV2 TLV for the for the BGP Community Path Attribute, and a protocols for combining FSv2 Extended Community (FSv2-EC) Actions with FSv2 Community Path Attributes. FSv2 Individual drafts for FSv2 Actions: These drafts may define FSv2 actions in Extended Communities and/or FSv2 actions in the FSv2 TLV of the BGP Community Attribute. Non-IP Filters (draft-hares-idr-fsv2-non-ip]: defines the template for FSv2 non-IP filters for MPLS, L2 traffic, SFC, and tunnel traffic, and FSV2 non-IP actions. Individual drafts on Non-IP Filters: IDR drafts for non-ip functions passed in BGP FSv2 includes: MPLS ([draft-hares-idr-fsv2-mpls]), L2VPN ([I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-l2vpn]), and NV03 ([I-D.ietf-idr-flowspec-nvo3]).

Extending the IP Filters The format of the FSv2 NLRI field for IP Filters is defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic]. This format includes a common header with fields for user specified order, dependency filter chain, and a TLV for filter components (type, length, value). This section defines the use of the dependency filter chain (section 2.1) in the NLRI and the format of the Extended IP Filters TLV (section 2.2). The Extended IP Filter group provides a flexible means to define which components are supported by the Extended IP Filter TLV. Four Extended Filter Component groups are defined in section 2.3, but additional may be defined via an IANA Registry. The ordering of Filters is by user define order number, then component, then value within a component. Section 2.4 provides the rules for ordering for FSv2 NLRI with IP Basic Filters and Extended IP Filters. Section 2.5 provides a template for new Extended IP Components. 2.1. Dependency Filter Chain in FSv2 NLRI Header FSv2 filters may be distributed in multiple BGP UPDATE packets. The format of the FSv2 NLRI is shown in Figure 3-1. In FSv2, the user can define the order of the filters by an including an order in the FSV2 NLRI prior to the filter. FSv2 also defines an optional dependency filter chain to allow the filter chains to be identified across all FSV2 Filter chains. This information may be installed from BGP data based into firewalls.

Ordering within FSv2 NLRI in Update Packet The transmission of TLVs within a FSV2 NLRI SHOULD be sent via ascending user order. Within a single user order, the TLVs should be ordered by FSv2 Filter type. The FSv2 Filter types which MUST be supported for the Extended IP Filter support are Filter Type IP Basic (type = 1) and Filter Type Extended IP Filters (type = 2). Other FSv2 Filter types MAY be supported, but the support of those filter types is outside the scope of this document. Within a single user order number and the same IP Basic Filter Type, the components should be ordered by ascending numerical order of the component type. Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 12] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 Within a single user order number and the same Extended IP Basic Type, the components should also be ordered by ascending component numbers. The Extended IP Filters version number simply indicates which components are required to be supported per version. Within a single user order and a single component number, the order of the filters is defined by the component. For example, if the component types are the same, then the value fields are compared as defined in [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic], [RFC8955] and [RFC8956]. The filters MUST be stored with the value fields in ascending order. NLRIs having TLVs which do not follow the above ordering rules MUST be considered as malformed by a BGP FSv2 propagator. This rule prevents any ambiguities that arise from the multiple copies of the same NLRI from multiple BGP FSv2 propagators. A BGP implementation SHOULD treat such malformed NLRIs as ""Treat-as-withdraw"" [RFC7606]. 2.5. Template for Extended IP Components Summary: One line title summary Component type: The numerical value for component type.

Validation and Error Handling Validation of the FSv2 NLRI follows the rules from section 4.1 of [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic]. For ease of reference to this validation procedure, the implementer might consider the following facts: Extended IP filters - are passed as either IPv4 (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD1), IPv6 (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD1), IPv4 VPN (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD2), IPv6 VPN (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD2). or (AFI=2) SAFI=TBD1 or SAFI=TBD2. IP Extended filters sent in SAFI=TBD1 - are validated against SAFI=1. To be specific, (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD1) is validated against (AFI=1, SAFI=1), and (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD1) is validasted against (AFI=2, SAFI=1). IP Extended filters sent in SAFI=TBD2 - are validated against SAFI=128. To be specific, (AFI=1, SAFI=TBD2) is validated against (AFI=1, SAFI=128) AND (AFI=2, SAFI=TBD2) is validated against (AFI=2, SAFI=128). Validation of the FSv2 NLRI follows the rules from section 4.2 of [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic] apply to the FSV2 NLRI filters. For ease of reference to this section, implementers might consider the following facts: FSv2 defines a Rule-0 for 0/0 with "permit-all" action. - By default, FSv2 (and FSv1) restrict the flow from permit all. By configuration, Rule-0 could be set to 0/0 with "permit-none" and filters could have the benefit of allowing traffic. If this configuration knob is set, then it MUST be used in a limited Domain of cooperating networks. FSv2 rules are ordered by ascending user order number, FSv2 Filter type, FSv2 component type, and FSv2 component value. This ordering rules means that multiple FSv2 filter rules with the same user order number of ordered by ascending FSv2 filter types (IP Basic (0x01) and Extended IP Filters (0x02)). If the FSv2 filter has the same user order and Filter type, then the order is by ascending FSv2 component type numbers. Finally, if FSv2 filters have the same user order, Flter type, component type, then the filter is ordered by the component value. Order is deterministic, but arbitrary. Users may use the user ordering and dependency chain to establish more complex relationships. Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 15] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 The following two error handling rules stated in Section 4.1.3 of [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic] must be followed by all BGP speakers: 1) FSv2 NLRI having TLV which do not have the correct length or syntax must be considered MALFORMED. Syntax is defined as having each field within NLRI header (order, dependent filters chain and within the FSv2 TLV (IP Basic TLV or Extended TLV) header, and each component. Any MALFORMED FSv2 NLRI is handled as "TREAT AS WITHDRAW" per [RFC7606]. 2) Any FSV2 NLRI which do not follow the ordering rules described in section 4 [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic] for filters is considered MALFORMED. Actions are transmitted on Extended Communities (EC) for FSv2 basic actions (FSv2-EC) or BGP Community path attribute (CPA) with FSv2 TLV (FSv2-CPA). The following rules MUST be followed by the FSv2 actions: If BGP Community Path Attribute is not supported, then: FSv2-EC MUST be ordered by FSv2 default order (see [I-D.ietf-idr-fsv2-ip-basic]) if one of the two conditions is not present: * Implement configuration knob that implementation specific order is set * Action Chain Order (ACO) FSV2-EC is attached with the Action dependency set to implementation specific If a BGP Community Path Attribute with a FSv2 TLV (FSv2-CPA)is supported and attached in an invalid form, then: the FSv2-CPA is ignored and not forwarded. If BGP Community Path Attribute with a FSv2 TLV (FSv2-CPA) is supported and a valid FSv2-CPA is attached, then: the FSv2-CPA takes precedence over FSv2-EC. The BGP Community Path attribute allows for user ordering with user order values of [1-N]. By default, the FSv2-EC follow the FSv2-CP actions (N+1) with all FSv2-EC on the same user order number. Early deployments of FSv2-CPA may want to reverse this order (first FSv2-EC, then BGP Community Path attribute). If so, FSv2-EC should be defined as [action order 0] by configuration knob. Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 16] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 5. Manageability FSv1 is a key part of many existing networks. The introduction of FSv2 is expected to be a phased process. where FSv1 is replaced slowly. One potential way this might occur is the following: FSv2 IP basic replaces FSv1 - A FSv2 implementation may simply configure FSv2 with the same IP Basic components as used in FSv1, and a user order of 1 for FSv2. FSv1 would be configured with a default user order of 10. The same Extended Communities are passed plus an ACO community (Generic Transitive Extended Community (0x01)) with ACO-Dependency of 0x0 (implementation specific) and AC-FAilure (0x00). FSv2 IP basic with default Action order ACO FSv2-EC used when FSv2-EC action order is needed to detect conflicts in actions in remote BGP peers. FSv2 IP basic with flexible user order After the implementations are solid, it is expected that networks will use FSv2 user ordering to provide flexible ordering. FSv2 Extended IP Filters with no dependency chain are deployed. The dependency chain field can be left as zero for any deployment of FSv2 Filter NLRI. FSv2 MPLS Filters with no dependency chain are deployed. The default ordering of the filters with the same user order number would be IP Basic Filters (0x01), Extended IP Filters (0x02), and MPLS Filters (0x03). If MPLS filters need to be done first, then the user order of MPLS would need to be lower than Extended IP filters. Please note that SRv6 headers are Extended IP Filters so SRv6 takes precedence over MPLS label filters. 6. IANA Considerations This section complies with [RFC7153]. 6.1. FSv2 Component types IANA is requested to indicate [this draft] as a reference on the following assignments in the Flow Specification Component Types Registry: Hares Expires 19 May 2025 [Page 17] Internet-Draft FSv2 More IP Filters November 2024 ID Name Reference ---- ----------- ----------------- 0 TTL [this document] 14 TTL [this document] 15 Reserved [this document] 16 Partial SID [this document] 17 NRP ID [this document] 6.2. FSV2 IP Extended Filter Groups IANA is requested to create the following a registry for extended IP Filters Group with the following values. Registry type is "IETF- Consensus" for values 0x04 to 0xFF. Registry type is "FCFS" for values 0x100 to 0x1FF. ID Group Name Valid FSV2 component values Reference --- ----------- ---------------- ----------------- 0 FSv1 0-13 [this document] 1 FSv1 + TTL 0-14 [this document] 2 SRv6 0-17 [this document] Values 0x04 - 0xFF (255) - Assigned via IETF Consensus Values 0x100 - 0x1FF (300-511) - Expert review Values 0x200 - 0x2FF (512-7670 - FCFS A template for requesting the IP Filters group assignment is given below. 6.2.1.

Security Considerations The use of ROA improves on [RFC8955] by checking to see of the route origination. This check can improve the validation sequence for a multiple-AS environment. >The use of BGPSEC [RFC8205] to secure the packet can increase security of BGP flow specification information sent in the packet. The use of the reduced validation within an AS [RFC9117] can provide adequate validation for distribution of flow specification within a single autonomous system for prevention of DDoS. Distribution of flow filters may provide insight into traffic being sent within an AS, but this information should be composite information that does not reveal the traffic patterns of individuals. 8.
