OAM Domain configuration using GARP (Generic OAM registration protocol - GORP)
David Elie-Dit-Cosaque, Kamakshi Sridhar, Maarten Vissers, Tony Van Kerckhove
2
Why automatic configuration of OAM domain?
Large number of flow points to configure prone to human errors Dynamic conditions MP’s may be added or deleted Spanning tree changes Bridge Spanning tree branch LP MP Upper level LP Need for Dynamic Configuration of the OAM domain. We propose GARP OAM Registration protocol (GORP)
3
GORP(GARP OAM Registration Protocol) Basics
GARP application Similar to GVRP New attributes = OAM levels Just like in GVRP: GORP requires manual placement of at least two MPs to define an OAM domain Enables Dynamic placement and Level assignment of all other LP’s GVRP pruning can be translated to GORP pruning-> Increased security GORP brings plug and play and security to OAM domain configuration
4
Level determination of LP’s using GORP
GORP: Each level is configured one at a time. GORP: The order in which levels are configured does not matter. Local decision: Every activated LP must pick minimum{level#1, … level # k} Customer Level MP1 MP2 20 LP1 LP2 20 Provider Level MP3 MP4 11 LP3 LP4 LP5 LP6 11 11 Lower Level attribute registration triggers changes of level Operator Level MP5 MP6 9 LP7 LP8 9 Physical Level ports P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 P6 P7 P8

GORP pruning Just like GVRP pruning, can do GORP pruning.
GORP pruning results in: Automatic placement of MP’s wherever required Benefits: Automatic MP’s will plug in holes in the OAM domain. Thus, Missing MP’s will not result in security leaks

New manual (or repaired) MPs

Attribute Value is the OAM domain Level
GARP frame format Attribute Value is the OAM domain Level No modifications to the GARP frame format
12
Summary GORP is a new GARP application similar to GVRP (same frame format, new attribute) GORP allows OAM domain pruning to prevent leaks GORP automatically configures/reconfigures OAM domain
