RFC 9086 - Border Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS) Extensions for Segment Routing BGP Egress Peer Engineering

Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 9086, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is enrolled and gated by ./le rfc check.

Overview

Positive

what Ze has

Tested both ways0.0%0 of 12 binding obligations

a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids

One polarity plus reason16.7%2 of 12 binding obligations

the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it

One polarity, unexcused0.0%0 of 12 binding obligations

one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which

Proven by a recorded break0.0%0 of 2 tagged units

a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed

Neutral

measures that are neither good news nor bad

Gated MUSTs12of 21 this summary declares

MUST-level requirements the gate HOLDS. A population, not a result: the shares beside it are what says how Ze stands

Out of scope0of 12 gated MUSTs

a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze. Scope, not coverage: it is in no share below

Negative

what Ze owes

No test at all83.3%10 of 12 binding obligations

no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why

The 4 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 12 obligations that bind Ze: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.

How to read the colors

A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.

CardTone hereWhy that color
Gated MUSTs neutral no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total
Out of scope neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Tested both ways ok green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got
One polarity plus reason ok green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it
One polarity, unexcused ok green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half
No test at all bad green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated
Proven by a recorded break ok green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above
Audit verdicts warn RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current

Enrolment

Enrolled: BGP-LS Egress Peer Engineering SIDs: 2 single-polarity positive (reserved ignored on receipt) + 10 gap (EPE SID origination not implemented; decode only)

What the public ledger says

Status: Partial

What the ledger says is covered:

  • PeerNode/Adj/Set SID TLVs (1101-1103) and BGP Router-ID (516) / Member-ASN (517) node descriptors decode as part of BGP-LS TLV coverage
  • reserved fields ignored on receipt.
What the ledger says remains EPE SID origination is not implemented: no code instantiates PeerNode/Adj/Set SIDs from live sessions, the BGP-LS plugin registers decode mode only, and there is no config surface to enable or disable EPE advertisement. Same BGP-LS encode gap as RFC 7752.

Coverage

Positive and negative tests 0 one part of the gated population

RFC9086-4.2-1BGP Router-ID (TLV 516) and ASN (TLV 512) MUST be included as Local Node Descriptors (S4.2)
MUST 4.2
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: the NodeDescriptor encoder emits TLV 516/512 but no origination path builds an EPE Link NLRI to carry them (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/types_descriptor.go:101, :116)

RFC9086-5-1BGP router MUST include PeerNode SID TLV in BGP-LS Attribute when EPE enabled (S5)
MUST 5
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: there is no EPE-enable path and the BGP-LS plugin never encodes or advertises the attribute (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/attr_link.go:517, plugin.go:70-71)

RFC9086-5.2-1Link Local/Remote Identifiers (TLV 258) MUST be included in Link Descriptors for PeerAdj SID (S5.2)
MUST 5.2
positiveno testno positive test

{gap}: LinkDescriptor.WriteTo emits TLV 258 but no origination path builds a PeerAdj SID advertisement (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/types_descriptor.go:203-206)

RFC9086-5-2V-Flag and L-Flag MUST be SET for 3-octet local label encoding (S5)
MUST 5
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: the encoder writes the Flags byte verbatim and never originates a label-encoded SID, so no path sets V/L (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/attr_link.go:521)

RFC9086-5-3Reserved bits in Flags MUST be zero when originated (S5)

RFC9086-5-5Reserved bits in Flags ignored when received (S5)
MUST 5
negativeno testno negative test

{single-polarity}: decodePeerSID reads Flags without branching on reserved bits and never rejects on them, so only a positive test is meaningful (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/attr_link.go:559-572)

RFC9086-5-6Reserved field (2 octets) ignored on receipt (S5)
MUST 5
negativeno testno negative test

{single-polarity}: decodePeerSID reads data[0]/data[1] then jumps to data[4:] for the SID, never inspecting the reserved octets, so it inherently ignores them (internal/component/bgp/plugins/nlri/ls/attr_link.go:559-570)
