Abstract:
Network architectures have begun to shift from pure destination based
routing to service aware routing. Operator requirements in this
space include forcing traffic through particular service nodes (e.g.
firewall, NAT) or segments. This document proposes an enhancement to
BGP to accommodate these new requirements.
This document proposes a pure control plane solution which allows
traffic to be routed via an ordered set of transit points (links,
nodes, or services) on the way to traffic's destination, with no
change in the forwarding plane. This approach is in contrast to
other proposal in this space which provide similar capabilities via
modifications to the forwarding plane.
