Abstract:
RFC 5492 defines capabilities advertisement for the BGP peer. In
addition, it is useful to be able to advertise BGP Next-Hop dependant
capabilities, in particular for forwarding plane features. RFC 5492
is not applicable because the BGP peer may be different from the BGP
Next-Hop, in particular when BGP Route Reflection is used. This
document defines a mechanism to advertise such BGP Next Hop dependant
Capabilities.
This document defines a new BGP non-transitive attribute to carry
Next-Hop Capabilities. This attribute is deleted or possibly
modified when the BGP Next Hop is changed.
This document also defines a Next-Hop capability to advertise the
ability to handle the MPLS Entropy Label defined in RFC 6790. It
updates RFC 6790 with regard to this BGP signaling.
