1.  Introduction

   [RFC7854] defines a number of different BMP statistics types to
   observe interesting events that occur on the router.  Stats are
   either counters or gauges.  A 32-bit Counter is a non-negative
   integer that monotonically increases until it reaches a maximum
   value, when it wraps around and starts increasing again from 0.  A
   64-bit Gauge is a non-negative integer that may increase or decrease,
   but shall never exceed a maximum value, nor fall below a minimum one.

   This document defines new gauges for BMP statistics message.  The
   format of the BMP statistics message remains same as defined in
   [RFC7854]

1.1.  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.  Statistics Definition

   This section defines different statistics type for RIB-IN and RIB-OUT
   monitoring type.

2.1.  RIB-IN Statistics Definition

   *  Type = TBD1: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in Adj-RIBs-
      In-Pre-Policy.  The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing
      configuration change.  Note that this counter updates stats type 7
      defined in [RFC7854] and makes it a explicit for Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-
      Policy.

Internet-Draft             BMP New Statistics               January 2024


   *  Type = TBD2: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/
      SAFI Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy.  The value can increase or decrease
      base on ongoing configuration change.  Note that this counter is
      similar from stats type 9 defined in [RFC7854] and makes it a
      explicit for Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy.  The value is structured as:
      2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address
      Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge.

   *  Type = TBD3: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in Adj-RIBs-
      In-Post-Policy.  The value can increase or decrease base on
      ongoing configuration change.

   *  Type = TBD4: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/
      SAFI Adj-RIBs-In-Post-Policy.  The value can increase or decrease
      base on ongoing configuration change.  The value is structured as:
      2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address
      Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge.

   *  Type = TBD5: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/
      SAFI rejected by inbound policy.  The value can increase or
      decrease base on ongoing configuration change.  Note that this
      counter is different from stats type 0 defined in [RFC7854].  The
      stats type 0 in [RFC7854] is the a 32 counter which is
      monotonically increasing number and doesn't represents the current
      number of routes rejected by inbound policy due to ongoing
      configuration changes.  The value is structured as: 2-byte Address
      Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family
      Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge.

   *  Type = TBD6: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
      accepted by inbound policy.  The value can increase or decrease
      base on ongoing configuration change or network events.  The value
      is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte
      Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit
      Gauge.  Some implementations, or configurations in
      implementations, may discard routes that do not match policy and
      thus the accepted count and the rib-in counts will be identical in
      such cases.

   *  Type = TBD7: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
      selected as active route.  The value can increase or decrease base
      on ongoing configuration change or network events.  The value is
      structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte
      Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit
      Gauge.

   *  Type = TBD8: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
      damped by configured route damping policy.  The value can increase
      or decrease base on configuration change or network events.  The
      value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI),
      1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a
      64-bit Gauge.

   *  Type = TBD9: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
      marked as stale by any configuration.  The value is structured as:
      2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address
      Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge.  This is the
      route that are marked stale as part of GR [RFC4784] process.

   *  Type = TBD10: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI
      marked as stale by LLGR.  The value is structured as: 2-byte
      Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family
      Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge.  This is the route
      that are marked stale as part of LLGR process.

2.2.  RIB-OUT Statistics Definition

   *  Type = TBD11: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/
      SAFI rejected by outbound policy.  These routes are active routes
      which should otherwise would have been advertised in absense of
      outbound policy which rejected them.  The value can increase or
      decrease base on ongoing configuration change.  The value is
      structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte
      Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit
      Gauge.  This counter only considers routes distributed from loc-
      rib into the adj-ribs-out and does not include cases like BGP add-
      paths [RFC7911].

3.  IANA Considerations

   This document requests that IANA assign the following new parameters
   to the BMP parameters name space (https://www.iana.org/assignments/
   bmp-parameters/bmp-parameters.xhtml).

4.  Security Considerations

   The considerations in Section 11 of [RFC7854] apply to this document.
   It is also believed that this document does not add any additional
   security considerations.

5.  Acknowledgements

   The author would like to thank Jeff Haas for his valuable input.
