Introduction [RFC8655] provides the overall architecture for Deterministic Networking (DetNet), which provides a capability to carry specified unicast or multicast data flows for real-time applications with extremely low data loss rates and bounded latency within a network domain. Currently DetNet operates on IP and MPLS data plane. DetNet functionality is divided into two sub-layers. The DetNet service sub-layer provides DetNet service protection with functionalities and operation of PREOF, a collective name for Packet Replication, Elimination, and Ordering Functions. The DetNet forwarding sub-layer provides resource allocation for DetNet flows over paths provided by the underlying network. Zhang, et al. Expires 13 April 2025 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Echo Request/Reply for DetNet Capability October 2024 [I-D.ietf-detnet-oam-framework] details the specific requirements of the Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) recommended to maintain a deterministic network. OAM for the DetNet MPLS data plane is described in [I-D.ietf-detnet-mpls-oam] and OAM for the DetNet IP data plane is described in [I-D.ietf-detnet-ip-oam]. [I-D.ietf-detnet-oam-framework] described the DetNet service sub- layer oam requirements of discovering DetNet relay nodes , collecting DetNet service sub-layer specific (e.g., configuration/operation/ status) information from DetNet relay nodes, as well as discovering the locations of PREOF functions. These requirements, could be satisfied using alternative technologies like NETCONF/YANG, IGP flooding or ping/traceroute. [I-D.varga-detnet-service-sub-layer-oam] introduced a ping/traceroute method, "DetNet Ping", and mentions that it could be used for discovering DetNet capabilities of DetNet relay nodes. This document introduced extensions to DetNet Ping (echo request/ reply) used in IP, MPLS or other DetNet data plane environments, which can be used within the DetNet domain, allowing the ping initiator node to discover the enabled DetNet capabilities of each relay node of detnet service-sub layer. 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. 1.2. Terminology The abbreviations used in this document are: DetNet: Deterministic Networking OAM: Operation, Administration, and Maintenance PRF: Packet Replication Function PEF: Packet Elimination Function POF: Packet Ordering Function PREOF: Packet Replication, Elimination and Ordering Function Zhang, et al. Expires 13 April 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Echo Request/Reply for DetNet Capability October 2024 2. DetNet Capability Discovery 2.1. DetNet Capability Discovery Operation Once the DetNet PING initiator node is triggered to discover the enabled DetNet capabilities of each DetNet relay node, the initiator node will send DetNet echo requests that include the DetNet Capabilities Discovery Header. First, with TTL equal to 1 to reach the closest node, which may be an DetNet relay node or not. Then with TTL equal to 2 to reach the second nearest node, which also may be an DetNet relay node or not. And further, increasing by 1 the TTL every time the initiator node sends a new echo request. As a result, the echo requests sent by the initiator node will reach all nodes one by one along the transport path of DetNet service flow. Alternatively, if the initiator node knows precisely all the DetNet relay nodes beforehand, once the initiator node is triggered to discover the enabled DetNet capabilities, it can send an echo request to each DetNet relay node directly, without TTL expiration. 2.2. DetNet Capability Discovery Header For echo DetNet request/reply message used for DetNet capability discovery, DetNet capabilities information are delivered by several kinds of DetNet Capabilities Discovery Objects. This document introduces an abstract header which has the corresponding format depending on the type of DetNet data plane. The format of DetNet Capabilities Discovery Object is shown as below. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ . . .
