PBB-EVPN ISID-based C-MAC-Flush
draft-ietf-bess-pbb-evpn-isid-cmacflush-09
Abstract
Provider Backbone Bridging (PBB) can be combined with Ethernet
Virtual Private Networks (EVPN) to deploy Ethernet Local Area Network
(ELAN) services in large Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)
networks. That combination is what we refer to as PBB-EVPN. Single-
Active Multi-homing and per-I-SID (per Service Instance Identifier)
Load-Balancing can be provided to access devices and aggregation
networks. In order to speed up the network convergence in case of
failures on Single-Active Multi-Homed Ethernet Segments (ES), PBB-
EVPN defines a flush mechanism for Customer MACs (C-MAC-flush) that
works for different Ethernet Segment Backbone MAC (B-MAC) address
allocation models. This document complements those C-MAC-flush
procedures for cases in which no PBB-EVPN Ethernet Segments are
defined (the attachment circuit is associated to a zero Ethernet
Segment Identifier) and a Service Instance Identifier based (I-SID-
based) C-MAC-flush granularity is required.

1. Introduction
[RFC7623] defines how Provider Backbone Bridging (PBB) can be
combined with Ethernet Virtual Private Networks (EVPN) to deploy ELAN
services in very large MPLS networks. [RFC7623] also describes how
Single-Active Multi-homing and per-I-SID Load-Balancing can be
provided to access devices and aggregation networks. When Access
Ethernet/MPLS Networks exists,
[I-D.ietf-bess-evpn-virtual-eth-segment] describes how virtual
Ethernet Segments (ES) can be associated to a group of Ethernet
Virtual Circuits (EVCs) or even Pseudowires (PWs). In order to speed
up the network convergence in case of failures on Single-Active
Multi-Homed Ethernet Segments, [RFC7623] defines a Customer MAC flush
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
mechanism that works for different Ethernet Segment B-MAC address
allocation models.
In some cases, the administrative entities that manage the access
devices or aggregation networks do not demand Multi-Homing Ethernet
Segments (ES) from the PBB-EVPN provider, but simply multiple single-
homed ES. Single-homed ES use null ESIs, whereas multi-homed ES use
non-null ESIs. If case of using single-homed ES, the PBB-EVPN
network is no longer aware of the redundancy offered by the access
administrative entity. Figure 1 shows an example where the PBB-EVPN
network provides four different Attachment Circuits for I-SID1, with
those Attachment Circuits not being part of any Ethernet Segment or
virtual Ethernet Segment (therefore they are referred to as null
virtual Ethernet Segment).

Figure 1: PBB-EVPN and non-ES based redundancy
In the example in Figure 1, CE1, CE2 and CE3 are attached to the same
service, identified by I-SID1, in the PBB-EVPN PEs. CE1 and CE2 are
connected to the PEs via G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching,
and their Attachment Circuits to PE1 and PE2 are represented by a
port and VLAN identifier. CE3 is dual-homed to PE3 and PE4 through
an active-standby PW, and its Attachment Circuit to the PEs is
represented by a PW. Each of the four PEs uses a dedicated Backbone
MAC address as source MAC address (B-MAC1, B-MAC2, B-MAC3 and B-MAC4,
respectively) when encapsulating customer frames in PBB packets and
forwarding those PBB packets to the remote PEs as per [RFC7623].
There are no multi-homed Ethernet Segments defined in the PBB-EVPN
network of the example, that is why the four Attachment Circuits in
Figure 1 show the text "ESI null", which means the Ethernet Segment
Identifier on those Attachment Circuits is zero. Since there are no
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
multi-homed ES defined, the PEs keep their Attachment Circuits active
as long as the physical connectivity is established and the CEs are
responsible for managing the redundancy, avoiding loops and providing
per-I-SID load balancing to the PBB-EVPN network. Examples of CEs
managing their own redundancy are described in [G.8032], or [RFC4762]
for active/standby Pseudowires.
For instance, in normal conditions, CE2 will block its link to CE1
and CE3 will block its forwarding path to PE4. In this situation, a
failure in one of the redundant Attachment Circuits will trigger the
CEs to start using their redundant paths, however those failures will
not trigger any Customer MAC flush procedures in the PEs that
implement [RFC7623], since the PEs are not using the PBB-EVPN multi-
homing procedures. For example:
* if the active PW from CE3 (to PE3) fails and the failure is due to
the entire PE3 node failing, then the procedures in [RFC7623]
guarantee that all the remote PEs flush all the Customer MACs
associated with B-MAC3 (the B-MAC of PE3). In this case, CE3
detects the fault due to the PW going operationally down.
* however, if the active PW from CE3 (to PE3) fails (but PE3 is
still operationally up), following the procedures in [RFC7623],
neither PE3 nor PE4 issue a Customer MAC flush message and
therefore the remote PEs will continue pointing at PE3's Backbone
MAC to reach CE3's Customer MACs, until the Customer MACs age out
in the I-SID1 forwarding tables. In this case, PE3 may use any of
the existing PW notifications so that CE3 switches the active PW
to PE4.
* the same issue is exposed when the active PW from CE3 switches
over from PE3 to PE4 due to a manual operation on CE3; that is,
neither PE3 nor PE4 trigger any Customer MAC flush notification
and the remote PEs continue sending the traffic to PE3 until the
Customer MACs age out.
[RFC7623] provides a Customer MAC flush solution based on a shared
Backbone MAC update along with the MAC Mobility extended community
where the sequence number is incremented. However, the procedure is
only used along with multi-homed Ethernet Segments. Even if that
procedure could be used for null Ethernet Segments, as in the example
of Figure 1, the [RFC7623] Customer MAC flush procedure would result
in unnecessary flushing of unaffected I-SIDs on the remote PEs, and
subsequent flooding of unknown unicast traffic in the network. For
instance, in case CE3 switches its active PW over to PE4, a potential
solution reusing the existing C-MAC Flush notifications in [RFC7623]
could be for PE3 to issue an update for the MAC/IP Advertisement
route of B-MAC3 with a higher sequence number. However, this update
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
would have caused unnecessary Customer MAC flushing for all the
I-SIDs attached to PE3 (supposing multiple I-SIDs in PE3), and not
only I-SID1.
This document describes an extension of the [RFC7623] Customer MAC
flush procedures, so that in the above failure example, PE3 can
trigger a Customer MAC flush notification that makes PE1, PE2 and PE4
flush all the Customer MACs associated to PE3's B-MAC3 and (only)
I-SID1. In order to do so, this specification introduces the
encoding of the I-SID in the MAC/IP Advertisement routes advertised
for the B-MACs. The Customer MAC flush procedure explained in this
document is referred to as "PBB-EVPN I-SID-based C-MAC-flush" and can
be used in PBB-EVPN networks with null or non-null (virtual) Ethernet
Segments.
This specification assumes that the reader is familiar with the
procedures in [RFC7623].
1.1. Terminology and Conventions

2. Solution requirements
The following requirements are followed by the C-MAC-flush solution
described in this document:
a. The solution MUST prevent black-hole scenarios in case of
failures on null ES ACs (Attachment Circuits not associated to
ES, that is, their corresponding ESI is zero) when the access
device/network is responsible for the redundancy.
b. This extension described in this document MUST work with Single-
Active non-null ES and virtual ES, irrespective of the PE B-MAC
address assignment (dedicated per-ES B-MAC or shared B-MAC, as in
[RFC7623]).
c. In case of failure on the egress PE, the solution MUST provide a
C-MAC-flush notification at B-MAC and I-SID granularity level.
d. The solution MUST provide a reliable C-MAC-flush notification in
PBB-EVPN networks that use Route-Reflectors (RRs). MAC flushing
needs to be provided to all affected I-SIDs in spite of the BGP
flush notification messages being aggregated at the RR.
e. The solution MUST coexist in [RFC7623] networks where there are
PEs that do not support this specification.
f. The solution SHOULD be enabled/disabled by an administrative
option on a per-PE and per-I-SID basis (as opposed to be always
enabled for all the I-SIDs).

3. EVPN BGP Encoding for ISID-based C-MAC-flush
The solution does not use any new BGP attributes but reuses the MAC
Mobility extended community as an indication of C-MAC-flush (as in
[RFC7623]) and encodes the I-SID in the Ethernet Tag field of the
EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. As a reference, Figure 2 shows the
MAC Mobility extended community and the EVPN MAC/IP advertisement
route that are used specified in [RFC7432] and used in this document
as a C-MAC-flush notification message.

Figure 2: CMAC-Flush notification encoding: BMAC/ISID route
Where:
* The route's route distinguisher and route targets are the ones
corresponding to its EVI. Alternatively to the EVI's RT, the
route MAY be tagged with an RT auto-derived from the Ethernet Tag
(I-SID) instead. [RFC7623] describes how the EVPN MAC/IP
Advertisement routes can be advertised along with the EVI RT or an
RT that is derived from the I-SID.
* The Ethernet Tag encodes the I-SID for which the PE that receives
the route must flush the C-MACs upon reception of the route.
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
* The MAC address field encodes the B-MAC Address for which the PE
that receives the route must flush the C-MACs upon reception of
the route.
* The MAC Mobility extended community is used as in [RFC7623], where
an increment in the sequence number between two updates for the
same B-MAC/I-SID will be interpreted as a C-MAC-flush notification
for the corresponding B-MAC and I-SID.
All the other fields are set and used as defined in [RFC7623]. This
document will refer to this route as the B-MAC/I-SID route, as
opposed to the EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement route used in [RFC7623] that
contains a specific B-MAC, and the Ethernet Tag ID set to zero. This
document uses the term B-MAC/0 route to represent a B-MAC route
advertised with Ethernet Tag ID = 0.
Note that this B-MAC/I-SID route will be accepted and reflected by
any [RFC7432] RR, since no new attributes or values are used. A PE
receiving the route will process the received B-MAC/I-SID update only
in case of supporting the procedures described in this document.
4. Solution description
Figure 1 will be used in the description of the solution. CE1, CE2
and CE3 are connected to ACs associated to I-SID1, where no (Multi-
Homed) Ethernet Segments have been enabled, and the ACs and PWs are
in active or standby state as per Figure 1.
Enabling or disabling I-SID-based C-MAC-flush SHOULD be an
administrative choice on the system that MAY be configured per I-SID
(I-Component, Service Instance Component), as opposed to being
configured for all I-SIDs. When enabled on a PE:
a. The PE will be able to generate B-MAC/I-SID routes as C-MAC-Flush
notifications for the remote PEs.
b. The PE will be able to process B-MAC/I-SID routes received from
remote PEs.
The PE MUST follow the [RFC7623] procedures for C-MAC-flush. This
specification brings some additional procedures when I-SID-based C-
MAC-flush is enabled.
This C-MAC-flush specification is described in three sets of
procedures:
* I-SID-based C-MAC-flush activation
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
* C-MAC-flush notification generation upon AC failures
* C-MAC-flush process upon receiving a C-MAC-flush notification
4.1. ISID-based C-MAC-Flush activation procedures
The following behavior MUST be followed by the PBB-EVPN PEs following
this specification. Figure 1 is used as a reference.
* As in [RFC7623], each PE advertises a shared B-MAC in a B-MAC/0
route (with B-MAC1, B-MAC2, B-MAC3 and B-MAC4 in the MAC address
field, respectively). This is the B-MAC that each PE will use as
B-MAC SA (Source Address) when encapsulating the frames received
on any local single-homed AC. Each PE will import the received
B-MAC/0 routes from the remote PEs and will install the B-MACs in
its B-component (Backbone Component) MAC-VRF. For instance, PE1
will advertise B-MAC1/0 and will install B-MAC2, B-MAC3 and B-MAC4
in its MAC-VRF.
* Assuming I-SID-based C-MAC-flush is activated for I-SID 1, the PEs
will advertise the shared B-MAC with I-SID 1 encoded in the
Ethernet Tag. That is, PE1 will advertise B-MAC1/1 and will
receive B-MAC2/1, B-MAC3/1 and B-MAC4/1. The receiving PEs MUST
use these B-MAC/I-SID routes only for C-MAC-flush procedures and
they MUST NOT be used them to add/withdraw any B-MAC entry in the
MAC-VRFs. As per [RFC7623], only B-MAC/0 routes can be used to
add/withdraw B-MACs in the MAC-VRFs.
* The above procedure MAY also be used for dedicated B-MACs (B-MACs
allocated per Ethernet Segment).
4.2. C-MAC-Flush generation
If, for instance, there is a failure on PE1's AC, PE1 will generate
an update including B-MAC1/1 along with the MAC Mobility extended
community where the Sequence Number has been incremented. The
reception of the B-MAC1/1 with an increment in the sequence number
will trigger the C-MAC-flush procedures on the receiving PEs.
* An AC going operationally down MUST generate a B-MAC/I-SID with a
higher Sequence Number. If the AC going down makes the entire
local I-SID go operationally down, the PE will withdraw the B-MAC/
I-SID route for the I-SID.
* An AC going operationally up SHOULD NOT generate any B-MAC/I-SID
update, unless it activates its corresponding I-SID, in which case
the PE will advertise the B-MAC/I-SID route.
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
* An AC receiving a G.8032 flush notification or a flush message in
any other protocol from the access network MAY propagate it to the
remote PEs by generating a B-MAC/I-SID route update with higher
Sequence Number.
4.3. C-MAC-flush process upon receiving a CMAC-flush notification
A PE receiving a C-MAC-flush notification will follow these
procedures:
* A received B-MAC/I-SID route (with non-zero I-SID) MUST NOT add/
remove any B-MAC to/from the MAC-VRF.
* An update of a previously received B-MAC/I-SID route with an
increment Sequence Number, MUST flush all the C-MACs associated to
that I-SID and B-MAC. C-MACs associated to the same I-SID but
different B-MAC MUST NOT be flushed.
* A received B-MAC/I-SID withdraw (with non-zero I-SID) MUST flush
all the C-MACs associated to that B-MAC and I-SID.
Note that the C-MAC-flush procedures described in [RFC7623] for
B-MAC/0 routes are still valid and a PE receiving [RFC7623] C-MAC-
flush notification messages MUST observe the behavior specified in
[RFC7623].
5. Conclusions
The I-SID-based C-MAC-flush solution described in this document has
the following benefits:
a. The solution solves black-hole scenarios in case of failures on
null ES ACs, since the C-MAC-flush procedures are independent of
the Ethernet Segment definition.
b. This extension can also be used with Single-Active non-null ES
and virtual ES, irrespective of the PE B-MAC address assignment
(dedicated per-ES B-MAC or shared B-MAC).
c. It provides a C-MAC-flush notification at B-MAC and I-SID
granularity level, therefore flushing a minimum number of C-MACs
and reducing the amount of unknown unicast flooding in the
network.
d. It provides a reliable C-MAC-flush notification in PBB-EVPN
networks that use RRs. RRs will propagate the C-MAC-flush
notifications for all the affected I-SIDs and irrespective of the
order in which the notifications make it to the RR.
Rabadan, et al. Expires 25 April 2024 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft PBB-EVPN ISID-based CMAC-flush October 2023
e. The solution can coexist in a network with systems supporting or
not supporting this specification. Non-supporting systems ignore
the B-MAC/I-SID routes, however they still follow the C-MAC-flush
procedures in [RFC7623].
6. Security Considerations
Security considerations described in [RFC7623] apply to this
document.
In addition, this document suggests additional procedures, that can
be activated on a per I-SID basis, and generate additional EVPN MAC/
IP Advertisement routes in the network. The format of these
additional EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement routes is backwards compatible
with [RFC7623] procedures and should not create any issues on
receiving PEs not following this specification, however, the
additional routes may consume extra memory and processing resources
on the receiving PEs. Because of that, it is RECOMMENDED to activate
this feature only when necessary (when multi-homed networks or
devices are attached to the PBB-EVPN PEs), and not by default in any
PBB-EVPN PE.
7. IANA Considerations
This document requests no actions from IANA.
