Within BGP Update message for BGP VPLS (RFC 4761) some parts of Extended
Community "Layer2 Info" are incorrectly decoded:
1. Encapsulation - Unknown (0x13). Per RFC 4761 encap type 0x13 is "VPLS"
(clause 3.2.4);
2. Control Flags - per RFC 4761 (clause 3.2.4) two least-significant bits (6
and 7) are defined as:
"C" (bit 6, Control Word): value 1 - Control Word is required - and value 0 -
Control Word is not required; decoding is correct (at least for value 0);
"S" (bit 7, Sequence delivery): value 1 - Sequence delivery is required - and
value 0 - Sequence delivery is not required; decoding is incorrect, because for
value 0 (sequence delivery is not required) you provide description that
"Sequence delivery is required".
Also, there is description (at the same string) "F Flag (reserved) set. IETF
document draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-multihoming (clause 3.3.1) updates RFC 4761 and
defines two additional bits within Control Flags byte - D (bit 0, "Down") and F
(bit 2, "Flush"). You provide description that "F Flag (reserved) set" when
this flag actually is not set (value 0). Furthermore, you don't provide
description about status of flag D (in attached dump in the first packet flag D
is set and unset in the second packet).
See attached dump for details.
Thanks.
