  1. 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

  7. 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

  8. GORP pruning Dynamically created MPs Missing MP MP MP5 Manually created MPs MP MP1 MP3 MPb MPa Provider Level MP2 LP MP4 MP6 Customer Level GORP dynamic placement of MPs prevents OAM frames from leaking outside the OAM domain

  9. New manual (or repaired) MPs Dynamically created MPs New MP MP MP5 Manually created MPs MP MP1 MP3 MPb MPa Provider Level MP2 MP4 MP6 Customer Level New manual MP’s installed: existing MP’s will be removed.

  11. 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
