DOI: 10.17487/RFC8955
This document defines a Border Gateway Protocol Network Layer
Reachability Information (BGP NLRI) encoding format that can be used
to distribute (intra-domain and inter-domain) traffic Flow
Specifications for IPv4 unicast and IPv4 BGP/MPLS VPN services. This
allows the routing system to propagate information regarding more
specific components of the traffic aggregate defined by an IP
destination prefix.
It also specifies BGP Extended Community encoding formats, which can
be used to propagate Traffic Filtering Actions along with the Flow
Specification NLRI. Those Traffic Filtering Actions encode actions a
routing system can take if the packet matches the Flow Specification.
This document obsoletes both RFC 5575 and RFC 7674.
This document is a product of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group of the
IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
