1.  Introduction

   This document defines a new BGP opaque extended community to carry
   the origination AS validation state inside an autonomous system.
   IBGP speakers that receive this validation state can configure local
   policies allowing that allow it to influence their decision process.

1.1.  Requirements Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2.  Origin Validation State Extended Community

   The origin validation state extended community is an opaque extended
   community [RFC4360] with the following encoding:

        0                   1                   2                   3
        0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
       |       0x43    |      0x00     |             Reserved          |
       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
       |                    Reserved                   |validationstate|
       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   The value of the high-order octet of the extended Type Field field is 0x43,
   which indicates it is non-transitive.  The value of the low-order
   octet of the extended type Type field as assigned by IANA is 0x00.  The
   Reserved field MUST be set to 0 and ignored upon the receipt of this
   community.  The last octet of the extended community is an unsigned
   integer that gives the route's validation state [RFC6811].  It can
   assume the following values:

                     +-------+-----------------------------+
                     | Value | Meaning                     |
                     +-------+-----------------------------+
                     |   0   | Lookup result = "valid"     |
                     |   1   | Lookup result = "not found" |
                     |   2   | Lookup result = "invalid"   |
                     +-------+-----------------------------+

   If the router is configured to support the extensions defined in this
   draft,
   document, it SHOULD attach the origin validation state extended
   community to BGP UPDATE messages sent to IBGP peers by mapping the
   computed validation state in the last octet of the extended
   community.  Similarly on the  Similarly, a receiving IBGP speakers, BGP speaker, in the absence of
   validation state of an IBGP route set based on local data, SHOULD be derived directly derive a validation
   state from the last octet of the extended community, if present.

   An implementation SHOULD NOT send more than one instance of the
   origin validation state extended community.  However, if more than
   one instance is received, an implementation MUST disregard all
   instances other than the one with the numerically-greatest numerically greatest validation
   state value.  If the value received is greater than the largest
   specified value (2), the implementation MUST apply a strategy similar
   to attribute discard [RFC7606] by discarding the erroneous community
   and logging the error for further analysis.

   By default, implementations MUST drop the origin validation state
   extended community if received from an EBGP External BGP (EBGP) peer,
   without further processing it. it further.  Similarly, by default default, an
   implementation SHOULD NOT send the community to EBGP peers.  However  However,
   it SHOULD be possible to configure an implementation to send or
   accept the community when warranted.  An example of a case where the
   community would reasonably be received from, or sent to, an EBGP peer
   is when two adjacent ASes are under control of the same
   administration.  A second example is documented in [I-D.ietf-sidr-route-server-rpki-light]. [SIDR-RPKI].

3.  Deployment Considerations

   In deployment scenarios where in which not all the speakers in an
   autonomous system are upgraded to support the extensions defined in
   this document, it is necessary to define policies that match on the
   origin validation extended community and set another BGP attribute
   [RFC6811] that influences selection of the best path selection in the same way as what would
   have been enabled by
   that an implementation of this extension. extension would.

   suggestions from Wesley George, Roque Gagliano and Bruno Decraene on
   this document.

5.  IANA Considerations

   IANA has assigned registered the value 0x00 from 0x00, with the name "BGP Origin
   Validation State Extended Community", in the "Non-Transitive Opaque
   Extended Community Sub-Types" registry.  The value is called "BGP
   Origin Validation State Extended Community".

5.  Security Considerations

   Security considerations such as those described in [RFC4272] continue
   to apply.  Since  Because this document introduces an extended community
   that will generally be used to affect route selection, the analysis
   in Section 4.5 ("Falsification") of [RFC4593] is relevant.  These
   issues are neither new, new nor unique to the origin validation extended
   community.

   The security considerations provided in [RFC6811] apply equally to
   this application of origin validation.  In addition, this document
   describes a scheme where router A outsources validation to some
   router B.  If this scheme is used, the participating routers should
   have the appropriate trust relationship -- B should trust A either
   because they are under the same administrative control or for some
   other reason (for example, consider
   [I-D.ietf-sidr-route-server-rpki-light]). [SIDR-RPKI]).  The security
   properties of the propagation path TCP connection between the two routers should also
   be considered.  See [RFC7454] Section 5.1 of [RFC7454] for advice regarding
   protection of the propagation path.
