Abstract:
Most of the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) message types make
provision for data in Type, Length, Value (TLV) format. However,
Route Monitoring messages (which provide a snapshot of the monitored
Routing Information Base) Stats Reports (which supply periodical
counters) and Peer Down messages (which indicate that a peering
session was terminated) do not. Supporting (optional) data in TLV
format across all BMP message types provides consistent and
extensible structures that would be useful among the various use-
cases where conveying additional data to a monitoring station is
required. This document updates RFC 7854 [RFC7854] to support TLV
data in all message types and defines some essential TLVs.
Additionally, this document introduces support for enterprise-
specific TLVs in the BGP Monitoring Protocol by defining an
Enterprise Bit (E-bit) that allows usage of per-vendor Type values.
