Authenticating every BFD [RFC5880] control packet with MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm [RFC1321], or Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1) is a computationally intensive process. This makes it difficult, if not impossible to authenticate every packet - particularly at faster rates. Also, the recent escalating series of attacks on MD5 and SHA-1 described in Finding Collisions in the Full SHA-1 [SHA-1-attack1] and New Collision Search for SHA-1 [SHA-1-attack2] raise concerns about their remaining useful lifetime as outlined in Updated Security Considerations for the MD5 Message-Digest and the HMAC-MD5 Algorithm [RFC6151] and Security Considerations for the SHA-0 and SHA-1 Message-Digest Algorithm [RFC6194]. If replaced by stronger algorithms, the computational overhead, will make the task of authenticating every packet even more difficult to achieve.¶
This document proposes that BFD control packets that signal a state change, a demand mode change (to D bit), a poll sequence change (P or F bit change) be categorized as a significant change. Control packets that do not require a poll sequence, such as a change in bfd.RequiredMinRxInterval or bfd.RequiredMinTxInterval, are also considered as a significant change. In other words, the contents of an Up packet MUST NOT change aside from the authentication section without stronger authentication to take advantage of the method described in this document.¶
In the Up state, most packets that are transmitted and received have no state change associated with them. Limiting authentication to packets that affect a BFD session's state allows more sessions to be supported with this optimized method of authentication.¶
Once the session has reached the Up state, the session can choose a less computationally intensive Auth Type. Currently, this includes:¶
When using optimized methods of authentication, BFD sessions should periodically test the session using strong authentication. Strong authentication is tested using a Poll sequence. To test strong authentication, a Poll sequence SHOULD be initiated by the sender using the strong authentication Auth Type rather than the chosen optimized Auth Type. If a control packet with the Final (F) bit is not received within the Detect Interval, the session has been compromised, and should be brought down. The interval for initiating a Poll sequence can be configured depending on the capability of the system.¶
Most packets transmitted on a BFD session are BFD Up packets. Strongly authenticating a small subset of these packets with a Poll sequence as described above, for example every one minute, significantly reduces the computational demand for the system while maintaining security of the session across the configured strong reauthentication interval.¶
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶

RFC XXXX, where XXXX is the number assigned to this document at the time of publication.¶
2024-10-07 with the actual date of the publication of this document.¶
The following terms used in this document have been defined in BFD [RFC5880].¶
The following terms are introduced in this document.¶
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| significant change | State change, a demand mode change (to D bit) or a poll sequence change (P or F bit). Control packets that do not require a poll sequence, such as bfd.RequiredMinRxInterval bfd.RequiredMinTxInterval, or bfd.DetectMult are also considered as a significant change. |
| configured strong reauthentication interval | Interval at which BFD control packets are retried with a stronger authentication. |
The cryptographic authentication mechanisms specified in BFD [RFC5880] describes enabling and disabling of authentication as a one time operation. As a security precaution, it mentions that authentication state be allowed to change at most once. Once enabled, every packet must have Authentication Bit set and the associated Authentication Type appended. In addition, it states that an implementation SHOULD NOT allow the authentication state to be changed based on the receipt of a BFD control packet.¶
This document proposes that an authentication mode that permits both a strong authentication mode and a less expensive "optimized" mode to be used within the same BFD session. This pairing of a strong and an optimized mode of authentication is carried in new BFD authentication types representing a given authentication type pairing.¶
The proposal outlines which BFD control packets are required to be strongly authenticated. A BFD control packet that fails authentication is discarded, or a BFD control packet that was supposed to be strongly authenticated, but was not; e.g. a significant change packet, is discarded. However, there is no change to the state machine for BFD, as the decision of a significant change is still decided by how many valid consecutive packets were received.¶
In this proposal, the contents of an Up packet MUST NOT change aside from the authentication section without stronger authentication. The full procedure is documented in the following sections.¶
When the Authentication Present (A) bit is set and the Auth Type is a type supporting Optimized BFD Authentication (Section 6.1), the Auth Type signals a pairing of a strong authentication type and an optimized authentication type. This pairing is advertised in a single Auth Type value in order to permit implementations to be aware that:¶
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Auth Type | Auth Len | Auth Key ID | Optimized |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Authentication Specific Data ~
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The Meticulous Keyed MD5, Meticulous Keyed SHA-1, and Meticulous Keyed ISAAC authentication sections define the fourth octet as "Reserved". This document repurposes the "Reserved" field as the "Optimized" field when used for authentication types for optimized BFD procedures.¶
The values of the Optimized field are:¶
Authentication Specific Data: When using the strong authentication type, the remainder of the authentication section carries that type's data.¶
For example, for Auth Type "Optimized MD5 Meticulous Keyed ISAAC Authentication" (type TBD):¶
When Optimized is 1, the format of the authentication section is the same as Section 4.3 of [RFC5880], excepting that Auth Type is still TBD and that Reserved is set to 1.¶
When Optimized is 2, the format of the authentication section is the same as Section 5 of [I-D.ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers], excepting that Auth Type is still TBD and that Reserved is set to 2.¶
If the received BFD Control packet contains an optimized authentication type using these procedures and the Optimized field is not 1 or 2, then the received packet MUST be discarded.¶
As noted in Section 2, when using optimized BFD procedures, strong authentication is used in the BFD state machine to bring a BFD session to the Up state or to make any change of the BFD parameters as carried in the BFD Control packet when in the Up state.¶
Once the BFD session has reached the Up state, the BFD Up state MUST be signaled to the remote BFD system using the strong authentication for at least Detect Mult packets before switching to the optimized authentication mode. This is to permit mechanisms such as Meticulous Keyed ISAAC for BFD Authentication [I-D.ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers] to be bootstrapped before switching to optimized authentication.¶
It is RECOMMENDED that when using optimized authentication that implementations switch from strong authentication to optimized authentication after sending at least Detect Mult packets. In the circumstances where a BFD session successfully reaches the Up state with strong authentication, but there are problems with the optimized authentication, this will permit the remote system to tear down the session as quickly as possible.¶
BFD sessions using optimized authentication that succeed in reaching the Up state using strong authentication and fail using the optimized authentication SHOULD bring the issue to the attention of the operator. Further, implementations MAY wish to throttle session restarts.¶
It is further RECOMMENDED that BFD implementations using optimized authentication defer notifying their client that the session has reached the Up state until it has transitioned to using the optimized authentication mode. In the event where optimized authentication is failing in the protocol, this avoids propagating the failed transitions to optimized mode to the clients.¶
The YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] model defined in this document augments the "ietf-bfd" module to add configuration relevant to the management of the feature defined in this document. In particular, it adds crypto algorithms that are described in this model, and in Meticulous Keyed ISAAC for BFD Authentication [I-D.ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers]. It adds a feature statement to enable optimized authentication. Finally, it adds an interval value that specifies how often the BFD session should be re-authenticated once it is in the Up state, and the key chain that should be used in the Up state.¶
The tree diagram for the YANG modules defined in this document use annotations defined in YANG Tree Diagrams. [RFC8340].¶

<CODE ENDS>¶
This documents requests two new authentication types, one URI, one YANG model, and an update to an existing IANA YANG model.¶
This document requests an update to the registry titled "BFD Authentication Types". IANA is requested to assign two new BFD AuthType:¶
This document registers one URIs in the "ns" subregistry of the "IETF XML" registry [RFC3688]. Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registration is requested:¶
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-bfd-opt-auth Registrant Contact: The IESG XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.¶
This document registers one YANG modules in the "YANG Module Names" registry [RFC6020]. Following the format in [RFC6020], the following registrations are requested:¶
name: ietf-bfd-opt-auth namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-bfd-opt-auth prefix: bfdoa reference: RFC XXXX¶
This document also requests an update to an existing IANA YANG module described in Updated BFD IANA Module (Appendix A).¶
The YANG module specified in this document defines a schema for data that is designed to be accessed via network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC8446]. The NETCONF Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content.¶
There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config) to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. Some of the subtrees and data nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability are described here.¶
Some of the readable data nodes in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes.¶
There are no read-only data nodes defined in this model.¶
Some of the RPC operations in this YANG module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control access to these operations.¶
There are no RPC operations defined in this model.¶
The approach described in this document enhances the ability to authenticate a BFD session by taking away the onerous requirement that every BFD control packet be authenticated. By authenticating packets that affect the state of the session, the security of the BFD session is maintained. In this mode, packets that are a significant change but are not authenticated, are dropped by the system. Therefore, a malicious user that tries to inject a non-authenticated packet; e.g. with a Down state to take a session down will fail. That combined with the proposal of using sequence number defined in Meticulous Keyed ISAAC for BFD Authentication [I-D.ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers] further enhances the security of BFD sessions.¶
The authors of this document would like to acknowledge Reshad Rahman as a contributor to this document.¶
This section carries the updated IANA BFD Module, iana-bfd-types.yang module, first defined in YANG Data Model for Bidirectional Forward Detection (BFD) [RFC9127]. The updated module carries three new authentication type enum definitions, 'null' with a suggested value of 6, and 'optimized-md5-meticulous-keyed-isaac' with a suggested value of 7, and 'optimized-sha1-meticulous-keyed-isaac' with a suggested value of 8. Note, the null enum type is used by BFD Stability [I-D.ietf-bfd-stability] only, but is being defined here to make sure changes to this YANG module do not cause a conflict. This module should replace the version that currently exists in the IANA registry.¶
