The IESG has approved the following document: - 'SRv6 BGP based Overlay Services' (draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services-15.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the BGP Enabled ServiceS Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alvaro Retana, John Scudder and Martin Vigoureux. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-srv6-services/ Technical Summary This draft defines procedures and messages for SRv6-based BGP services including L3VPN, EVPN, and Internet services. It builds on RFC4364 "BGP/MPLS IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)" and RFC7432 "BGP MPLS-Based Ethernet VPN". Working Group Summary The BGP Enabled Services (BESS) working group is responsible for defining, specifying, and extending network services based on BGP. These services have traditionally been deployed over MPLS networks. However, there is a need to be able to implement them on new SRv6 based networks. A solution was needed to allow the advertisement of segment identifiers associated with layer 2 and layer 3 service endpoint functions over SRv6. This draft provides such a solution, including services such as IPv4 VPNs, IPv6 VPNs, and EVPN. The document was developed over a period of time in the BESS WG, in parallel with the development of SRv6 in the 6MAN and SPRING working groups. Document Quality Segment routing using SRv6 is starting to be deployed. There is a requirement for a standardised specification for how to deliver widely used VPN services such as provider provisioned IP VPNs and EVPN over an SRv6 infrastructure, making use of functions available in SRv6. A number of participants have indicated knowledge of implementations.
