5 I Migration Approaches Many ways to deliver I services to End Users Many Service roviders have already deployed MLS in their Iv4 backbone for various services MLS/VN, MLS/QoS, MLS/TE, ATM + I switching MLS can be used to facilitate I migration Multiple approaches for I over MLS: Iv4 -to- Tunnels I over Circuit_over_MLS Native I MLS I rovider Edge Router (6E) over MLS resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.

11 6E Routing/Label Distribution IG or M-BG advertising 2001:0420:: 6E-2 sends M-iBG advertisement to 6E-1 which says: is reachable via BG Next Hop = (6E-2) bind BG label (*) E-1 IGv4 advertises reachability of E LDv4 binds label to IG or M-BG advertising (*) The 2 nd label allows operations with enultimate Hop opping (H) (which is typically used in current MLS networks)- it is an Aggregate label resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.

17 6E Standardisation 6E approach will be an IETF standard soon See <draft-ietf-ngtrans-bgp-tunnel-04.txt> Generic solution for transport of I over any tunnelling technique (including MLS) using M-BG IETF Working Group document, due for WG Last Call resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 17

18 6E Benefits For Ss already running MLS, 6E approach has many benefits: Core Infrastructure needs no upgrade and no config change Upgrade only on the edge (ie upgrade of existing Es to 6E, or add separate 6Es) I supported simultaneously with existing MLS services (MLS v4_vns, QoS, ATM, v4 Internet, ) 6E allows I to be deployed over existing MLS Multiservice infrastructure with marginal operational impact/cost /risk resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.

19 6E Benefits 2001:0620:: IG M-BG M-iBG sessions IG M-BG 2001:0420:: v4 6E 6E 2001:0621:: v4 IG M-BG 6E Iv4 MLS 6E v V6 only has a single Routing eer (E) regardless of how many remote s it communicates with No change on a when remote s are added/removed (reachability automatically learnt) No tunnel/ circuit to be configured 6E offers scalable and flexible solution (benefits are analogous to RFC2547bis layer 3 VN solution for Iv4) resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.

20 6E Benefits 2001:0620:: M-iBG sessions 2001:0420:: E 6E 2001:0621:: E Iv4 MLS 6E E solution can be easily extended to support same VN services for I as currently supported for Iv4 with RFC2457bis (isolation, Internet access, QoS ) resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 20

21 6E Cons 2001:0620:: M-iBG sessions 2001:0420:: v4 6E 6E 2001:0621:: v4 6E Iv4 MLS 6E v Only makes sense where network already runs MLS Requires knowledge of MLS and BG technologies Requires dual-stack and software upgrade on E (or new E) resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.

22 Agenda I Migration Approaches enabled by MLS 6E Approach: I over MLS/Iv4 Conclusions resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. 22

23 Conclusions I migration does not require MLS But, where MLS is deployed, it enables attractive approaches for I migration 6E is one such I migration approach over MLS which offers I deployment with marginal cost/risk I treated as just another service that can be supported over stable Iv4 MLS core (in addition to Iv4 Internet, MLS Layer 3 VNs, ATM, FR, ) resentation_id 2001, Cisco Systems, Inc.
