Segment Routing Centralized BGP Egress Peer Engineering
Abstract
Segment Routing (SR) leverages source routing. A node steers a
packet through a controlled set of instructions, called segments, by
prepending the packet with an SR header. A segment can represent any
instruction, topological or service based. SR allows for the
enforcement of a flow through any topological path while maintaining
per-flow state only at the ingress node of the SR domain.
The Segment Routing architecture can be directly applied to the MPLS data plane with no change on the forwarding plane. It requires a minor extension to the existing link-state routing protocols.
This document illustrates the application of Segment Routing to solve
the BGP Egress Peer Engineering (BGP-EPE) requirement. The SR-based
BGP-EPE solution allows a centralized (Software-Defined Networking,
or SDN) controller to program any egress peer policy at ingress
border routers or at hosts within the domain.

1. Introduction
The document is structured as follows:
- Section 1 states the BGP-EPE problem statement and provides the
key references.
- Section 2 defines the different BGP Peering Segments and the
semantic associated to them.
- Section 3 describes the automated allocation of BGP Peering
Segment-IDs (SIDs) by the BGP-EPE-enabled egress border router and
the automated signaling of the external peering topology and the
related BGP Peering SIDs to the collector [RFC9086].
- Section 4 overviews the components of a centralized BGP-EPE
controller. The definition of the BGP-EPE controller is outside
the scope of this document.
- Section 5 overviews the methods that could be used by the
centralized BGP-EPE controller to implement a BGP-EPE policy at an
ingress border router or at a source host within the domain. The
exhaustive definition of all the means to program a BGP-EPE input
policy is outside the scope of this document.
For editorial reasons, the solution is described with IPv6 addresses and MPLS SIDs. This solution is equally applicable to IPv4 with MPLS SIDs and also to IPv6 with native IPv6 SIDs.
1.1. Problem Statement
The BGP-EPE problem statement is defined in [RFC7855].
A centralized controller should be able to instruct an ingress Provider Edge (PE) router or a content source within the domain to use a specific egress PE and a specific external interface/neighbor to reach a particular destination.
Let's call this solution "BGP-EPE" for "BGP Egress Peer Engineering". The centralized controller is called the "BGP-EPE controller". The egress border router where the BGP-EPE traffic steering functionality is implemented is called a BGP-EPE-enabled border router. The input policy programmed at an ingress border router or at a source host is called a BGP-EPE policy.
The requirements that have motivated the solution described in this document are listed here below:
- The solution MUST apply to the Internet use case where the
Internet routes are assumed to use IPv4 unlabeled or IPv6
unlabeled. It is not required to place the Internet routes in a
VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance and allocate labels on a
per-route or per-path basis.
- The solution MUST support any deployed Internal BGP (iBGP) schemes
(Route Reflectors (RRs), confederations, or iBGP full meshes).
- The solution MUST be applicable to both routers with external and
internal peers.
- The solution should minimize the need for new BGP capabilities at
the ingress PEs.
- The solution MUST accommodate an ingress BGP-EPE policy at an
ingress PE or directly at a source within the domain.
- The solution MAY support automated Fast Reroute (FRR) and fast
convergence mechanisms.

1.2. 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.
2. BGP Peering Segments
As defined in [RFC8402], certain segments are defined by a BGP-EPE- capable node and correspond to their attached peers. These segments are called BGP Peering Segments or BGP Peering SIDs. They enable the expression of source-routed inter-domain paths.
An ingress border router of an AS may compose a list of segments to steer a flow along a selected path within the AS, towards a selected egress border router C of the AS and through a specific peer. At minimum, a BGP Egress Peer Engineering policy applied at an ingress EPE involves two segments: the Node SID of the chosen egress EPE and then the BGP Peering Segment for the chosen egress EPE peer or peering interface.
[RFC8402] defines three types of BGP Peering Segments/SIDs: PeerNode SID, PeerAdj SID, and PeerSet SID.
Peer Node Segment: A segment describing a peer, including the SID
(PeerNode SID) allocated to it
Peer Adjacency Segment: A segment describing a link, including
the SID (PeerAdj SID) allocated to it
Peer Set Segment: A segment describing a link or a node that is
part of the set, including the SID (PeerSet SID) allocated to
the set
3. Distribution of Topology and TE Information Using BGP-LS
In ships-in-the-night mode with respect to the pre-existing iBGP design, a Border Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS) [RFC7752] session is established between the BGP-EPE-enabled border router and the BGP-EPE controller.
As a result of its local configuration and according to the behavior described in [RFC9086], Node C allocates the following BGP Peering Segments [RFC8402]:
- A PeerNode segment for each of its defined peers (D: 1012, E: 1022
and F: 1052).
- A PeerAdj segment for each recursing interface to a multi-hop peer
(e.g., the upper and lower interfaces from C to F in Figure 1).
- A PeerSet segment to the set of peers (E and F). In this case,
the PeerSet represents a set of peers (E, F) belonging to the same
AS (AS 3).
C programs its forwarding table accordingly:
+================+===========+===============================+
| Incoming Label | Operation | Outgoing Interface |
+================+===========+===============================+
| 1012 | POP | link to D |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
| 1022 | POP | link to E |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
| 1032 | POP | upper link to F |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
| 1042 | POP | lower link to F |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
| 1052 | POP | load balance on any link to F |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
| 1060 | POP | load balance on any link to E |
| | | or to F |
+----------------+-----------+-------------------------------+
Table 1
C signals each related BGP-LS instance of Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) to the BGP-EPE controller. Each such BGP-LS route is described in the following subsections according to the encoding details defined in [RFC9086].

3.6. Fast Reroute (FRR)
A BGP-EPE-enabled border router MAY allocate an FRR backup entry on a per-BGP-Peering-SID basis. One example is as follows:
- PeerNode SID
1. If multi-hop, back up via the remaining PeerADJ SIDs (if
available) to the same peer.
2. Else, back up via another PeerNode SID to the same AS.
3. Else, pop the PeerNode SID and perform an IP lookup.
- PeerAdj SID
1. If to a multi-hop peer, back up via the remaining PeerADJ SIDs
(if available) to the same peer.
2. Else, back up via a PeerNode SID to the same AS.
3. Else, pop the PeerNode SID and perform an IP lookup.
- PeerSet SID
1. Back up via remaining PeerNode SIDs in the same PeerSet.
2. Else, pop the PeerNode SID and IP lookup.
Let's illustrate different types of possible backups using the reference diagram and considering the Peering SIDs allocated by C.
PeerNode SID 1052, allocated by C for peer F:
- Upon the failure of the upper connected link CF, C can reroute all
the traffic onto the lower CF link to the same peer (F).
PeerNode SID 1022, allocated by C for peer E:
- Upon the failure of the connected link CE, C can reroute all the
traffic onto the link to PeerNode SID 1052 (F).
PeerNode SID 1012, allocated by C for peer D:
- Upon the failure of the connected link CD, C can pop the PeerNode
SID and look up the IP destination address in its FIB and route
accordingly.
PeerSet SID 1060, allocated by C for the set of peers E and F:
- Upon the failure of a connected link in the group, the traffic to
PeerSet SID 1060 is rerouted on any other member of the group.
For specific business reasons, the operator might not want the default FRR behavior applied to a PeerNode SID or any of its dependent PeerADJ SIDs.
The operator should be able to associate a specific backup PeerNode SID for a PeerNode SID; e.g., 1022 (E) must be backed up by 1012 (D), which overrules the default behavior that would have preferred F as a backup for E.
4. BGP-EPE Controller
In this section, Let's provide a non-exhaustive set of inputs that a BGP-EPE controller would likely collect such as to perform the BGP- EPE policy decision.
The exhaustive definition is outside the scope of this document.
4.1. Valid Paths from Peers
The BGP-EPE controller should collect all the BGP paths (i.e., IP destination prefixes) advertised by all the BGP-EPE-enabled border routers.
This could be realized by setting an iBGP session with the BGP-EPE- enabled border router, with the router configured to advertise all paths using BGP ADD-PATH [RFC7911] and the original next hop preserved.
In this case, C would advertise the following Internet routes to the BGP-EPE controller:
- NLRI <2001:db8:abcd::/48>, next hop 2001:db8:cd::d, AS Path
{AS 2, 4}
- X (i.e., the BGP-EPE controller) knows that C receives a path
to 2001:db8:abcd::/48 via neighbor 2001:db8:cd::d of AS2.
- NLRI <2001:db8:abcd::/48>, next hop 2001:db8:ce::e, AS Path
{AS 3, 4}
- X knows that C receives a path to 2001:db8:abcd::/48 via
neighbor 2001:db8:ce::e of AS2.
- NLRI <2001:db8:abcd::/48>, next hop 2001:db8:f::f, AS Path
{AS 3, 4}
- X knows that C has an eBGP path to 2001:db8:abcd::/48 via AS3
via neighbor 2001:db8:f::f.
An alternative option would be for a BGP-EPE collector to use the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) [RFC7854] to track the Adj-RIB-In of BGP- EPE-enabled border routers.
4.2. Intra-Domain Topology
The BGP-EPE controller should collect the internal topology and the related IGP SIDs.
This could be realized by collecting the IGP Link-State Database (LSDB) of each area or running a BGP-LS session with a node in each IGP area.
4.3. External Topology
Thanks to the collected BGP-LS routes described in Section 3, the BGP-EPE controller is able to maintain an accurate description of the egress topology of Node C. Furthermore, the BGP-EPE controller is able to associate BGP Peering SIDs to the various components of the external topology.
4.4. SLA Characteristics of Each Peer
The BGP-EPE controller might collect Service Level Agreement (SLA) characteristics across peers. This requires a BGP-EPE solution, as the SLA probes need to be steered via non-best-path peers.
Unidirectional SLA monitoring of the desired path is likely required. This might be possible when the application is controlled at the source and the receiver side. Unidirectional monitoring dissociates the SLA characteristic of the return path (which cannot usually be controlled) from the forward path (the one of interest for pushing content from a source to a consumer and the one that can be controlled).
Alternatively, Metric Extensions, as defined in [RFC8570], could also be advertised using BGP-LS [RFC8571].
4.5. Traffic Matrix
The BGP-EPE controller might collect the traffic matrix to its peers or the final destinations. IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) [RFC7011] is a likely option.
An alternative option consists of collecting the link utilization statistics of each of the internal and external links, also available in the current definition in [RFC7752].
4.6. Business Policies
The BGP-EPE controller should be configured or collect business policies through any desired mechanisms. These mechanisms by which these policies are configured or collected are outside the scope of this document.
4.7. BGP-EPE Policy
On the basis of all these inputs (and likely others), the BGP-EPE controller decides to steer some demands away from their best BGP path.
The BGP-EPE policy is likely expressed as a two-entry segment list where the first element is the IGP Prefix-SID of the selected egress border router and the second element is a BGP Peering SID at the selected egress border router.
A few examples are provided hereafter:
- Prefer egress PE C and peer AS AS2: {64, 1012}. "64" being the SID
of PE C as defined in Section 1.1.
- Prefer egress PE C and peer AS AS3 via eBGP peer 2001:db8:ce::e,
{64, 1022}.
- Prefer egress PE C and peer AS AS3 via eBGP peer 2001:db8:f::f,
{64, 1052}.
- Prefer egress PE C and peer AS AS3 via interface 2001:db8:cf2::f
of multi-hop eBGP peer 2001:db8:f::f, {64, 1042}.
- Prefer egress PE C and any interface to any peer in the group
1060: {64, 1060}.
Note that the first SID could be replaced by a list of segments.
This is useful when an explicit path within the domain is required
for traffic-engineering purposes. For example, if the Prefix-SID of
Node B is 60 and the BGP-EPE controller would like to steer the
traffic from A to C via B then through the external link to peer D,
then the segment list would be {60, 64, 1012}.
5. Programming an Input Policy
The detailed/exhaustive description of all the means to implement a BGP-EPE policy are outside the scope of this document. A few examples are provided in this section.
5.1. At a Host
A static IP/MPLS route can be programmed at the host H. The static route would define a destination prefix, a next hop, and a label stack to push. Assuming the same Segment Routing Global Block (SRGB), at least on all access routers connecting the hosts, the same policy can be programmed across all hosts, which is convenient.
5.2. At a Router - SR Traffic-Engineering Tunnel
The BGP-EPE controller can configure the ingress border router with an SR traffic-engineering tunnel T1 and a steering policy S1, which causes a certain class of traffic to be mapped on the tunnel T1.
The tunnel T1 would be configured to push the required segment list.
The tunnel and the steering policy could be configured via multiple means. A few examples are given below:
- The Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP)
according to [RFC8664] and [RFC8281]
- NETCONF [RFC6241]
- Other static or ephemeral APIs
Example: at router A (Figure 1).
Tunnel T1: push {64, 1042}
IP route L/8 set next-hop T1
5.3. At a Router - Unicast Route Labeled Using BGP (RFC 8277)
The BGP-EPE controller could build a unicast route labeled using BGP [RFC8277] (from scratch) and send it to the ingress router.
Such a route would require the following:
NLRI
the destination prefix to engineer (e.g., L/8)
Next Hop
the selected egress border router: C
Label
the selected egress peer: 1042
Autonomous System (AS) path
the selected valid AS path
Some BGP policy to ensure it will be selected as best by the ingress router. Note that as discussed in Section 5 of [RFC8277], the comparison of a labeled and unlabeled unicast BGP route is implementation dependent and hence may require an implementation- specific policy on each ingress router.
This unicast route labeled using BGP [RFC8277] "overwrites" an equivalent or less-specific "best path". As the best path is changed, this BGP-EPE input policy option may influence the path propagated to the upstream peer/customers. Indeed, implementations treating the SAFI-1 and SAFI-4 routes for a given prefix as comparable would trigger a BGP WITHDRAW of the SAFI-1 route to their BGP upstream peers.
5.4. At a Router - VPN Policy Route
The BGP-EPE controller could build a VPNv4 route (from scratch) and send it to the ingress router.
Such a route would require the following:
NLRI
the destination prefix to engineer: e.g., L/8
Next Hop
the selected egress border router: C
Label
the selected egress peer: 1042
Route-Target
the selected appropriate VRF instance at the ingress router
AS path
the selected valid AS path
Some BGP policy to ensure it will be selected as best by the ingress router in the related VRF instance.
The related VRF instance must be preconfigured. A VRF fallback to the main FIB might be beneficial to avoid replicating all the "normal" Internet paths in each VRF instance.
6. IPv6 Data Plane
The described solution is applicable to IPv6, either with MPLS-based
or IPv6-native segments. In both cases, the same three steps of the
solution are applicable:
- BGP-LS-based signaling of the external topology and BGP Peering
Segments to the BGP-EPE controller.
- Collecting, by the BGP-EPE controller, various inputs to come up
with a policy decision.
- Programming at an ingress router or source host of the desired
BGP-EPE policy, which consists of a list of segments to push on a
defined traffic class.
7. Benefits
The BGP-EPE solutions described in this document have the following benefits:
- No assumption on the iBGP design within AS1.
- Next-hop-self on the Internet routes propagated to the ingress
border routers is possible. This is a common design rule to
minimize the number of IGP routes and to avoid importing external
churn into the internal routing domain.
- Consistent support for traffic engineering within the domain and
at the external edge of the domain.
- Support for both host and ingress border router BGP-EPE policy
programming.
- BGP-EPE functionality is only required on the BGP-EPE-enabled
egress border router and the BGP-EPE controller; an ingress policy
can be programmed at the ingress border router without any new
functionality.
- Ability to deploy the same input policy across hosts connected to
different routers (assuming the global property of IGP Prefix-
SIDs).
8. IANA Considerations
This document has no IANA actions.
9. Manageability Considerations
The BGP-EPE use case described in this document requires BGP-LS [RFC7752] extensions that are described in [RFC9086] and that consists of additional BGP-LS descriptors and TLVs. Manageability functions of BGP-LS, described in [RFC7752], also apply to the extensions required by the EPE use case.
Additional manageability considerations are described in [RFC9086].
10. Security Considerations
[RFC7752] defines BGP-LS NLRI instances and their associated security aspects.
[RFC9086] defines the BGP-LS extensions required by the BGP-EPE mechanisms described in this document. BGP-EPE BGP-LS extensions also include the related security.
