A ROUGH alternate proposal to CLNS DB for RIPE
Victor and all: This *very* rough draft is the start of an alternate proposal to be discussed at the ripe data base working group. Any comments would be welcomed on this. I started with Hank's proposal I'd like some pointers on where to go from here. I send this document because my questions and alternate formats provoked no additional comments. I suggest this alternate proposal to align things more closely to IP CIDR ideas. I thought that was the point of CIDR. I am in hopes this will help tools creation, but again since I have started anything like that I welcome comments. Are there on-line tools for CLNS traceroutes like prtraceroute? I welcome pointers. Again, thank-you for letting me comment. My comment should be taken as personal, and not representative of Merit. So flame at me. Sue Hares ---- CLNS routing-domain object for the RIPE database Version 1.3B Feb 1994 Susan Hares/Hank Steeman skh@merit.edu/Henk_Steenman@sara.nl CLNS routing-domain object Page 2 Introduction. ____________ In the RARE lower layer technology work group for CLNS it was recognised that in order to coordinate routing between CLNS routing domains a central registry for such domains was necessary. At a meeting of the work group at the 27 IETF in Amsterdam it was decided to write a registry specification. At this meeting the RIPE NCC offered to extend their database for IP domains/networks with CLNS related objects if a sound proposal came forward. Below is a revision of the 1.3 database description to include the following: RIPE-81++ features: - Registration of ISO addresses - Registration of Routing Policy - Registration of Aggregation policy The registration of ISO address needs to include the: 1) Network Layer Reachability (NLRI) information These are simply the Prefix passed in the routing protocols. Just as IP network numbers are passed in the IP routing protocols. 2) Routing Domain Identifier (RDI) Routing Domain Identifiers are the "AS number" equivalent for ISO routing protocols such as IDRP. The Routing Domain Identifiers are take out of the same address space as the rest of the ISO addresses. This address spaces minimizes some allocation issues, but increases the need to register RDIs. The IDRP for IP specification allows an AS number to be mapped into RDI. RDI so mapped can be directly mapped into an AS. The registration should indicate if this registration space i is used. 3) NETs host systems The DNS for CLNS system is under development. As a host.txt file was once used to bootstrap the internet, so a iso_hosts file must be generated to help boot strap the CLNP Internet. The routing policy in this database is listed on an Routing domain basis. 1) Routing Domains attached to a Routing Domain 2) Address of Router that provides exit points for Routing Domain 3) Policy of what routes the Routing Domain will take from other domains. (This equivalent to the IP AS-IN policy used by CLNP). 4) Policy of what the Routing Domain will send to other routing Domains (This equivalent to the IP AS-OUT policy used by CLNP). 5) Communities this RD belongs 6) Distribution Policy The Aggregation policy in this database object is listed as: 1) Aggregator location Location is listed as both RDI (AS) and the NET 2) Prefix that represents the aggregation 3) prefixes that will be are routed by the aggregated prefix 4) Type of Aggregation Whether the aggregation is proxy or or by the RD holding the routing. Below a description of a three database objects for CLNS routing domains are defined. These objects directly mirror the IP objects defined in the paper RIPE 81 [1] to improve the cross use of tools. The following uses of the information are envisioned: 1) The attributes describing routing policy are intended to be set-up such that routing tables for static inter-domain routing can be derived from them or existing routing can be checked against the described policy. 2) Bootstrapping host to host communication by providing an iso_hosts table 3) With the advent the dynamic inter-domain routin, these objects may be used to configure the initial IDRP sesions. It is desired that tools are made to serve these tasks. It is understood that the object as described below is subject to change when CLNS routing developes. In an appendix, some generally used combinations of the Authority and Format Identifier (AFI) and the Initial Domain Identifier (IDI) are shown. The RIPE database expects NSAPs or prefixes to be formatted with dots, seperating the first two and then every next four digits.

In general: NSAP's are always an integer number of octets where the AFI is always one octet and the IDI is always an integer number of octets. NSAP's are hierarchical structured and once the AFI is decided upon, structuring of the rest of the NSAP is up to authorities down the tree. Two common AFI are 47 and 39 and can be described by some general rules. AFI: 39 Describes that the following two octets are the ISO DCC country codes. Since these codes are always described by three digits, padding with an "f" is necessary to complete the 2 octets. Further structure is done by the authority for each country and there is no general rule. AFI: 47 IDI: 4 defines OSINET. Followed by a two byte organisation identifier. IDI: 5 defines US-GOSIP Version 1 defines a two byte organisation identifier. Version 2 defines a one byte data format identifier, a two byte zero field a three byte administrative authority a two byte routing domain id.

Sue, okay some quick comments while here in Seattle. After a quick look through this certainly looks to be something we can come to consensus on reasonably quikcly. If I underastand this correctly it gives us a similar amount of database information for CLNP as we have today for IP and maps very nicely to boot. Form an implementation (RIPE database) point of view these new objects and attributes should not be a problem as soon as the DB indexing system is truly classless which it isn't today.
