[net-next v3 6/8] seg6: add VRF support for SRv6 End.DT6 behavior

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



SRv6 End.DT6 is defined in the SRv6 Network Programming [1].

The Linux kernel already offers an implementation of the SRv6
End.DT6 behavior which permits IPv6 L3 VPNs over SRv6 networks. This
implementation is not particularly suitable in contexts where we need to
deploy IPv6 L3 VPNs among different tenants which share the same network
address schemes. The underlying problem lies in the fact that the
current version of DT6 (called legacy DT6 from now on) needs a complex
configuration to be applied on routers which requires ad-hoc routes and
routing policy rules to ensure the correct isolation of tenants.

Consequently, a new implementation of DT6 has been introduced with the
aim of simplifying the construction of IPv6 L3 VPN services in the
multi-tenant environment using SRv6 networks. To accomplish this task,
we reused the same VRF infrastructure and SRv6 core components already
exploited for implementing the SRv6 End.DT4 behavior.

Currently the two End.DT6 implementations coexist seamlessly and can be
used depending on the context and the user preferences. So, in order to
support both versions of DT6 a new attribute (vrftable) has been
introduced which allows us to differentiate the implementation of the
behavior to be used.

A SRv6 End.DT6 legacy behavior is still instantiated using a command
like the following one:

 $ ip -6 route add 2001:db8::1 encap seg6local action End.DT6 table 100 dev eth0

While to instantiate the SRv6 End.DT6 in VRF mode, the command is still
pretty straight forward:

 $ ip -6 route add 2001:db8::1 encap seg6local action End.DT6 vrftable 100 dev eth0.

Obviously as in the case of SRv6 End.DT4, the VRF strict_mode parameter
must be set (net.vrf.strict_mode=1) and the VRF associated with table
100 must exist.

Please note that the instances of SRv6 End.DT6 legacy and End.DT6 VRF
mode can coexist in the same system/configuration without problems.
