Title : BGP Information SAFI and BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute
Author(s) : P. Mohapatra, E. Rosen
Filename : draft-pmohapat-idr-info-safi-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2006-10-11
This document specifies a new BGP SAFI, Information SAFI. A BGP
update message of this SAFI contains an NLRI which uniquely
identifies the BGP speaker that originated the update. The purpose of
such an update is to carry attributes that impart information about
the BGP speaker which may be of interest to other BGP speakers. For
instance, if one BGP speaker needs to use an IP-based encapsulation
in order to deliver traffic to a second, the second BGP speaker can
use this SAFI to specify information about the encapsulation header
that it expects. A BGP tunnel attribute is specified for this
purpose. Other attributes, including communities and/or extended
communities, can also be included.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
