1.  Introduction

   Deterministic Networking (DetNet) is a service that can be offered by
   a network to DetNet flows.  DetNet provides these flows with
   extremely low packet loss rates and assured maximum end-to-end
   delivery latency.  General background and concepts of DetNet can be
   found in the DetNet Architecture architecture [RFC8655].

   This document specifies the DetNet data plane operation for IP hosts
   and routers that provide DetNet service to IP encapsulated IP-encapsulated data.  No
   DetNet-specific encapsulation is defined to support IP flows; instead
   instead, the existing IP IP-layer and higher layer higher-layer protocol header
   information is used to support flow identification and DetNet service
   delivery.  Common data plane procedures and control information for
   all DetNet data planes can be found in [I-D.ietf-detnet-data-plane-framework]. [RFC8938].

   The DetNet Architecture architecture models the DetNet related DetNet-related data plane
   functions as two sub-layers: a service sub-layer and a forwarding
   sub-layer.  The service sub-layer is used to provide DetNet service
   protection (e.g., by packet replication the Packet Replication Function (PRF) and packet elimination
   functions) Packet
   Elimination Function (PEF)) and reordering.  The forwarding sub-layer
   is used to provide congestion protection (low loss, assured latency,
   and limited out-of-order delivery).  The service sub-layer generally
   requires additional header fields to provide its service; for example
   example, see
   [I-D.ietf-detnet-mpls]. [DetNet-MPLS].  Since no DetNet-specific fields are
   added to support DetNet IP flows, only the forwarding sub-layer
   functions are supported using the DetNet IP defined by this document.
   Service protection can be provided on a per sub-net per-sub-network basis using
   technologies such as MPLS [I-D.ietf-detnet-dp-sol-mpls] [DetNet-MPLS] and Ethernet Ethernet, as specified
   in by
   the IEEE 802.1 TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) task group (referred
   to in this document simply as IEEE802.1 TSN). "IEEE 802.1 TSN").  See
   [IEEE802.1TSNTG].

   This document provides an overview of the DetNet IP data plane in
   Section 3, 3 and considerations that apply to providing DetNet services
   via the DetNet IP data plane in Section 4.  Section 5 provides the
   procedures for hosts and routers that support IP-based DetNet
   services.  Section 6 summarizes the set of information that is needed
   to identify an individual DetNet flow.

3.  Overview of the DetNet IP Data Plane Overview

   This document describes how IP is used by DetNet nodes, i.e., hosts
   and routers, to identify DetNet flows and provide a DetNet service
   using an IP data plane.  From a data plane perspective, an end-to-end
   IP model is followed.  As mentioned above, existing IP IP-layer and higher
   layer
   higher-layer protocol header information is used to support flow
   identification and DetNet service delivery.  Common data plane
   procedures and control information for all DetNet data planes can be
   found in [I-D.ietf-detnet-data-plane-framework]. [RFC8938].

   The DetNet IP data plane primarily uses 6-tuple based 6-tuple-based flow
   identification, where "6-tuple" refers to information carried in IP
   and higher IP-
   layer and higher-layer protocol headers.  The 6-tuple referred to in
   this document is the same as that defined in [RFC3290].  Specifically
   Specifically, the 6-tuple is destination address, source address, IP
   protocol, source port, destination port, and differentiated services (DiffServ) code
   point (DSCP). DSCP.  General
   background on the use of IP headers, headers and
   5-tuples, 5-tuples to identify flows
   and support Quality of Service (QoS) can be found in [RFC3670].
   [RFC7657] also provides useful background on the delivery of DiffServ Diffserv
   and "tuple" based tuple-based flow identification.  Note that a 6-tuple is composed
   of a 5-tuple plus the addition of a DSCP component.

   For some of the protocols protocols, 5-tuples and 6-tuples cannot be used used,
   because the port information is not available (e.g., ICMP, IPSec
   ESP). IPsec, and
   Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)).  This is also the case for
   flow aggregates.  In such cases, using fewer fields is appropriate, e.g.,
   such as a 3-tuple (2 IP addresses, IP protocol) or even a 2-tuple
   (all IP traffic between two IP addresses).

   The DetNet IP data plane also allows for optional matching on the
   IPv6 flow label Flow Label field, as defined in [RFC8200].

   Non-DetNet and DetNet IP packets have the same protocol header format
   on the wire.  Generally  Generally, the fields used in flow identification are
   forwarded unmodified.  However, standard modification of the DSCP
   field [RFC2474] is not precluded.

   DetNet flow aggregation may be enabled via the use of wildcards,
   masks, lists, prefixes prefixes, and ranges.  IP tunnels may also be used to
   support flow aggregation.  In these cases, it is expected that
   DetNet-aware intermediate nodes will provide DetNet service on the
   aggregate through resource allocation and congestion control
   mechanisms.

   The specific procedures that are required to be implemented by a
   DetNet node supporting this document can be found in Section 5.  The
   DetNet controller plane, Controller Plane, as defined in [RFC8655], is responsible for
   providing each node with the information needed to identify and
   handle each DetNet flow.

   Figure 1 illustrates a DetNet enabled DetNet-enabled IP network.  The DetNet enabled DetNet-enabled
   end systems originate IP encapsulated IP-encapsulated traffic that is identified
   within the DetNet domain as DetNet flows based on IP header
   information.  Relay nodes understand the forwarding requirements of
   the DetNet flow and ensure that node, interface interface, and sub-network
   resources are allocated to ensure DetNet service requirements.  The

   that the transit routers are DetNet service aware but do not perform
   any DetNet service sub-layer function, e.g., PREOF (Packet

      Figure 2: Non-DetNet-aware Non-DetNet-Aware IP end systems End Systems with DetNet IP Domain

   Figure 2 illustrates a variant of Figure 1 where the end systems are
   not DetNet aware.  In this case, edge nodes sit at the boundary of
   the DetNet domain and provide DetNet service proxies for the end
   applications by initiating and terminating DetNet service for the
   application's IP flows.  The existing header information or an
   approach such as described in Section 4.4 can be used to support
   DetNet flow identification.

   Note that Figure Figures 1 and Figure 2 can be collapsed, so IP DetNet End
   Systems end systems
   can communicate over a DetNet IP network with IP End Systems. end systems.

   As non-DetNet and DetNet IP packets have the same protocol header
   format on the wire, from a data plane perspective, the only
   difference is that there is flow-associated DetNet information on
   each DetNet node that defines the flow related flow-related characteristics and
   required forwarding behavior.  As shown above, edge nodes provide a
   Service Proxy function that "associates" one or more IP flows with
   the appropriate DetNet flow-specific information and ensures that the
   flow receives the proper traffic treatment within the domain.

4.  DetNet IP Data Plane Considerations

   This section provides considerations related to providing DetNet
   service to flows which that are identified based on their header
   information.

4.1.  End System Specific  End-System-Specific Considerations

   Data-flows

   Data flows requiring DetNet service are generated and terminated on
   end systems.  This document deals only with IP end systems.  The
   protocols used by an IP end system are specific to an application,
   and end systems peer with other end systems.  DetNet's use of 6-tuple
   IP flow identification means that DetNet must be aware of not only
   the format of the IP header, but also of the next protocol value
   carried within an IP packet (see Section 5.1.1.3).

   For DetNet unaware DetNet-unaware IP end systems systems, service-level proxy functions are
   needed inside the DetNet domain.

   When IP end systems are DetNet-aware, DetNet aware, no application-level or
   service-level proxy functions are needed inside the DetNet domain.
   End systems need to ensure that DetNet service requirements are met
   when processing packets associated to a DetNet flow.  When sending
   packets, this means that packets are appropriately shaped on
   transmission and receive appropriate traffic treatment on the
   connected sub-network; see Section Sections 4.3.2 and Section 4.2 for more details.
   When receiving packets, this means that there are appropriate local
   node resources, e.g., buffers, to receive and process the packets of
   that DetNet flow.

   An important additional consideration for DetNet-aware end systems is
   avoiding IP fragmentation.  Full 6-tuple flow identification is not
   possible on IP fragments fragments, as fragments don't include the transport
   headers or their port information.  As such, it is important that
   applications and/or end-systems end systems use an IP packet size that will avoid
   fragmentation within the network when sending DetNet flows.  The
   maximum size can be learned via path Path MTU discovery, [RFC1192] and
   [RFC8201], Discovery [RFC1191]
   [RFC8201] or via the controller plane. Controller Plane.  Note that path Path MTU discovery Discovery
   relies on ICMP, which may not follow the same path as an individual
   DetNet flow.

   In order to maximize reuse of existing mechanisms, DetNet-aware
   applications and end systems SHOULD NOT mix DetNet and non-DetNet
   traffic within a single 5-tuple.

4.2.  DetNet Domain-Specific Considerations

   As a general rule, DetNet IP domains need to be able to forward any
   DetNet flow identified by the IP 6-tuple.  Doing otherwise would
   limit the number of 6-tuple flow ID combinations that could be used
   by the end systems.  From a practical standpoint standpoint, this means that all
   nodes along the end-to-end path of DetNet flows need to agree on what
   fields are used for flow identification.  Possible consequences of
   not having such an agreement include some flows interfering with
   other flows, and the traffic treatment expected for a service not
   being provided.

   From a connection type perspective connection-type perspective, two scenarios are identified:

   1.  DN attached: the end system is directly connected to an edge
       node, node
       or the end system is behind a sub-network sub-network.  (See ES1 and ES2 in figure below)
       Figure 3.)

   2.  DN integrated: the end system is part of the DetNet domain.  (See
       ES3 in figure below) Figure 3.)

   L3 (IP) end systems may use any of these connection types.  A DetNet
   domain allows communication between any end systems using the same
   encapsulation format, independent of their connection type and DetNet
   capability.  DN attached  DN-attached end systems have no knowledge about the
   DetNet domain and its encapsulation format.  See Figure 3 for L3 end
   system connection examples.

   Within a DetNet domain, the DetNet-enabled IP Routers routers are
   interconnected by links and sub-networks to support end-to-end
   delivery of DetNet flows.  From a DetNet architecture perspective,
   these routers are DetNet relays, as they must be DetNet service
   aware.  Such routers identify DetNet flows based on the IP 6-tuple, 6-tuple
   and ensure that the DetNet service required traffic treatment required by the DetNet service
   is provided both on both the node and on any attached sub-network.

   This solution provides DetNet functions end-to-end, end to end, but it does so on
   a
   per link per-link and sub-network per-sub-network basis.  Congestion protection and protection, latency
   control
   control, and the resource allocation (queuing, policing, shaping) are
   supported using the underlying link/sub-network specific link/sub-network-specific mechanisms.
   However, service protection (packet replication (PRF and packet
   elimination functions) PEF) is not provided end to end
   at the DetNet layer end-to-
   end.  Instead layer.  Instead, service protection can be provided on
   a per underlying per-link (underlying L2 link link) and sub-network per-sub-network basis.

   The DetNet Service Flow service flow is mapped to the link/sub-network specific link/sub-network-specific
   resources using an underlying system-specific means.  This implies
   that each DetNet-aware node on the path looks into the forwarded
   DetNet
   Service Flow service flow packet and utilize e.g., utilizes, for example, a 6-tuple to
   find out the required mapping within a node.

   As noted earlier, service protection must be implemented within each
   link/sub-network independently, using the domain specific domain-specific mechanisms.
   This is due to the lack of unified end-to-end sequencing information
   that could be used by the intermediate nodes.  Therefore, service
   protection (if enabled) cannot be provided end-to-end, end to end, only within
   sub-networks.  This is shown for a three sub-network scenario with three sub-networks
   in Figure 4, where each sub-network can provide service protection
   between its borders.  "R" and "E" denote replication and elimination
   points within the sub-network.

   If end-to-end service protection is desired, it can be implemented, implemented --
   for example, by the DetNet end systems using Layer-4 Layer 4 (L4) transport
   protocols or application protocols.  However, these protocols are out
   of the scope of this document.

   Note that not mixing DetNet and non-DetNet traffic within a single
   5-tuple, as described above, enables simpler 5-tuple filters to be
   used (or re-used) reused) at the edges of a DetNet network to prevent non-
   congestion-responsive DetNet traffic from escaping the DetNet domain.

4.3.  Forwarding Sub-Layer Considerations

4.3.1.  Class of Service

   Class of Service (CoS) for DetNet flows carried in IPv4 and IPv6 is
   provided using the standard differentiated services (DSCP) DSCP field [RFC2474] and related
   mechanisms.

   One additional consideration for DetNet nodes which that support CoS
   services is that they must ensure that the CoS service classes do not
   impact the congestion protection and latency control mechanisms used
   to provide DetNet QoS.  This requirement is similar to the
   requirement for MPLS LSRs Label Switching Routers (LSRs) that CoS LSPs
   cannot impact the resources allocated to TE LSPs [RFC3473].

4.3.2.  Quality of Service

   Quality of Service (QoS) for DetNet service flows carried in IP must
   be provided locally by the DetNet-aware hosts and routers supporting
   DetNet flows.  Such support leverages the underlying network layer
   such as 802.1 TSN.  The node-internal traffic control mechanisms used
   to deliver QoS for IP encapsulated IP-encapsulated DetNet flows are outside the scope
   of this document.  From an encapsulation perspective, the combination
   of the 6-tuple (the typical 5-tuple enhanced with the DSCP) and
   optionally the flow label uniquely identifies a DetNet IP flow.

   Packets that are identified as part of a DetNet IP flow but that have
   not been the subject of a completed reservation can disrupt the QoS
   offered to properly reserved DetNet flows by using resources
   allocated to the reserved flows.  Therefore, the network nodes of a
   DetNet network MUST ensure that no DetNet allocated resources, DetNet-allocated resource, e.g.,
   queue or shaper, is used by such flows.  There are multiple methods
   that may be used by an implementation to defend service delivery to
   reserved DetNet flows, including but not limited to:

   o

   *  Treating packets associated with an incomplete reservation as non-
      DetNet traffic.

   o

   *  Discarding packets associated with an incomplete reservation.

   o

   *  Re-marking packets associated with an incomplete reservation.  Re-
      marking can be accomplished by changing the value of the DSCP
      field to a value that results in the packet no longer matching any
      other reserved DetNet IP flow.

4.3.3.  Path Selection

   While path selection algorithms and mechanisms are out of the scope
   of the DetNet data plane definition, it is important to highlight the
   implications of DetNet IP flow identification on path selection and
   next hops.  As mentioned above, the DetNet IP data plane identifies
   flows using "6-tuple" 6-tuple header information as well as the optional (flow
   label) header field.  DetNet generally allows for both flow-
   specific flow-specific
   traffic treatment and flow-specific next-hops. next hops.

   In non-DetNet IP forwarding, it is generally assumed that the same
   series of next hops, i.e., the same path, will be used for a
   particular 5-tuple or, in some cases, e.g., [RFC5120], cases (e.g., [RFC5120]), for a
   particular 6-tuple.  Using different next hops for different 5-tuples
   does not take any special consideration for DetNet-aware
   applications.

   Care should be taken when using different next hops for the same
   5-tuple.  As discussed in [RFC7657], unexpected behavior can occur
   when a single 5-tuple application flow experiences reordering due to
   being split across multiple next hops.  Understanding of the
   application and transport protocol impact of using different next
   hops for the same 5-tuple is required.  Again, this only indirectly
   impacts path selection for DetNet flows and this document only indirectly. document.

4.4.  DetNet Flow Aggregation

   As described in [I-D.ietf-detnet-data-plane-framework], [RFC8938], the ability to aggregate individual flows, flows
   and their associated resource control, control into a larger aggregate is an
   important technique for improving scaling by reducing the state per
   hop.  DetNet IP data plane aggregation can take place within a single
   node, when that node maintains state about both the aggregated and
   individual flows.  It can also take place between nodes, where when one
   node maintains state about only flow aggregates while the other node
   maintains state on all or a portion of the component flows.  In
   either case, the management or control function that provisions the
   aggregate flows must ensure that adequate resources are allocated and
   configured to provide the combined service requirements of the
   individual flows.  As DetNet is concerned about latency and jitter,
   more than just bandwidth needs to be considered.

   From a single node perspective, the aggregation of IP flows impacts
   DetNet IP data plane flow identification and resource allocation.  As
   discussed above, IP flow identification uses the IP "6-tuple" 6-tuple for flow
   identification.  DetNet IP flows can be aggregated using any of the
   6-tuple fields and optionally also by the flow label.  The use of
   prefixes, wildcards, lists, and value ranges allows a DetNet node to
   identify aggregate DetNet flows.  From a resource allocation
   perspective, DetNet nodes ought to provide service to an aggregate
   rather than on a component flow basis.

   It is the responsibility of the DetNet controller plane Controller Plane to properly
   provision the use of these aggregation mechanisms.  This includes
   ensuring that aggregated flows have compatible (e.g., the same or
   very similar) QoS and/or CoS characteristics, characteristics; see Section 4.3.2.  It
   also includes ensuring that per component-flow per-component-flow service requirements
   are satisfied by the aggregate, aggregate; see Section 5.3.

   The DetNet controller plane Controller Plane MUST ensure that non-congestion-
   responsive DetNet traffic is not forwarded outside a DetNet domain.

4.5.  Bidirectional Traffic

   While the DetNet IP data plane must support bidirectional DetNet
   flows, there are no special bidirectional features within the data
   plane.  The special case of co-routed bidirectional DetNet flows are is
   solely represented at the management and control plane levels,
   without specific support or knowledge within the DetNet data plane.
   Fate sharing and associated or co-routed bidirectional flows can be
   managed at the control level.

   Control and management mechanisms need to support bidirectional
   flows, but the specification of such mechanisms are is out of the scope
   of this document.  An example control plane solution for MPLS can be
   found in [RFC7551].

5.  DetNet IP Data Plane Procedures

   This section provides DetNet IP data plane procedures.  These
   procedures have been divided into the following areas: flow
   identification, forwarding forwarding, and traffic treatment.  Flow
   identification includes those procedures related to matching IP IP-layer
   and
   higher layer higher-layer protocol header information to DetNet flow (state)
   information and service requirements.  Flow identification is also
   sometimes called Traffic classification; "traffic classification"; for example example, see
   [RFC5777].  Forwarding includes those procedures related to next hop next-hop
   selection and delivery.  Traffic treatment includes those procedures
   related to providing an identified flow with the required DetNet
   service.

   DetNet IP data plane establishment and operational procedures also
   have requirements on the control and management systems for DetNet
   flows
   flows, and these are referred to in this section.  Specifically  Specifically, this
   section identifies a number of information elements that require
   support via the management and control interfaces supported by a
   DetNet node.  The specific mechanism used for such support is out of
   the scope of this document.  A summary of the requirements for
   management
   management- and control related control-related information is included.  Conformance
   language is not used in the summary summary, since it applies to future
   mechanisms such as those that may be provided in YANG models
   [I-D.ietf-detnet-yang].
   [DetNet-YANG].

5.1.  DetNet IP Flow Identification Procedures

   IP

   IP-layer and higher layer higher-layer protocol header information is used to
   identify DetNet flows.  All DetNet implementations that support this
   document MUST identify individual DetNet flows based on the set of
   information identified in this section.  Note that additional
   requirements for flow identification
   requirements, identification, e.g., to support other higher higher-
   layer protocols, may be defined in the future.

   The configuration and control information used to identify an
   individual DetNet flow MUST be ordered by an implementation.
   Implementations MUST support a fixed order when identifying flows, flows and
   MUST identify a DetNet flow by the first set of matching flow
   information.

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification when the implementation is acting as a DetNet end
   systems,
   system, a relay node, or as an edge node.

5.1.1.  IP Header Information

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on IP header information.  The IPv4 header is
   defined in [RFC0791] [RFC0791], and the IPv6 is defined in [RFC8200].

5.1.1.1.  Source Address Field

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the Source Address field of an IP packet.
   Implementations SHOULD support longest prefix matching for this field
   (see [RFC1812] and [RFC7608].) [RFC7608]).  Note that a prefix length of zero (0)
   effectively means that the field is ignored.

5.1.1.2.  Destination Address Field

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the Destination Address field of an IP
   packet.  Implementations SHOULD support longest prefix matching for
   this field (see [RFC1812] and [RFC7608].) [RFC7608]).  Note that a prefix length
   of zero (0) effectively means that the field is ignored.

      |  Note: Any IP address value is allowed, including an IP
      |  multicast destination address.

5.1.1.3.  IPv4 Protocol and IPv6 Next Header Fields

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the IPv4 Protocol field when processing IPv4
   packets,
   packets and the IPv6 Next Header Field field when processing IPv6 packets.
   This includes the next protocol values defined in Section 5.1.2 and
   any other value, including zero.  Implementations SHOULD allow for
   these fields to be ignored for a specific DetNet flow.

5.1.1.4.  IPv4 Type of Service and IPv6 Traffic Class Fields

   These fields are used to support Differentiated Services differentiated services [RFC2474]
   [RFC2475].  Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the DSCP field in the IPv4 Type of Service
   field when processing IPv4 packets, packets and the DSCP field in the IPv6
   Traffic Class Field field when processing IPv6 packets.  Implementations
   MUST support list-based matching of DSCP values, where the list is
   composed of possible field values that are to be considered when
   identifying a specific DetNet flow.  Implementations SHOULD allow for
   this field to be ignored for a specific DetNet flow.

5.1.1.5.  IPv6 Flow Label Field

   Implementations of this document SHOULD support identification of
   DetNet flows based on the IPv6 Flow Label field.  Implementations
   that support matching based on this field MUST allow for it to be
   ignored for a specific DetNet flow.  When this field is used to
   identify a specific DetNet flow, implementations MAY exclude the IPv6
   Next Header field and next header information as part of DetNet flow
   identification.

5.1.2.  Other Protocol Header Information

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on header information identified in this
   section.  Support for TCP, UDP, ICMP ICMP, and IPsec flows is defined.
   Future documents are expected to define support for other protocols.

5.1.2.1.  TCP and UDP

   DetNet flow identification for TCP [RFC0793] and UDP [RFC0768] is
   achieved based on the Source and Destination Port fields carried in
   each protocol's header.  These fields share a common format and
   common DetNet flow identification procedures.

   The rules defined in this section only apply when the IPv4 Protocol
   or IPv6 Next Header Field field contains the IANA defined IANA-defined value for UDP or
   TCP.

5.1.2.1.1.  Source Port Field

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the Source Port field of a TCP or UDP packet.
   Implementations MUST support flow identification based on a
   particular value carried in the field, i.e., an exact value.
   Implementations SHOULD support range-based port matching.
   Implementation MUST also allow for the field to be ignored for a
   specific DetNet flow.

5.1.2.1.2.  Destination Port Field

   Implementations of this document MUST support DetNet flow
   identification based on the Destination Port field of a TCP or UDP
   packet.  Implementations MUST support flow identification based on a
   particular value carried in the field, i.e., an exact value.
   Implementations SHOULD support range-based port matching.
   Implementation MUST also allow for the field to be ignored for a
   specific DetNet flow.

5.1.2.2.  ICMP

   DetNet flow identification for ICMP [RFC0792] is achieved based on
   the protocol number in the IP header.  Note that ICMP type is not
   included in the flow definition.

5.1.2.3.  IPsec AH and ESP

   IPsec Authentication Header (AH) [RFC4302] and Encapsulating Security
   Payload (ESP) [RFC4303] share a common format for the Security
   Parameters Index (SPI) field.  Implementations MUST support flow
   identification based on a particular value carried in the field,
   i.e., an exact value.  Implementation  Implementations SHOULD also allow for the
   field to be ignored for a specific DetNet flow.

   The rules defined in this section only apply when the IPv4 Protocol
   or IPv6 Next Header Field field contains the IANA defined IANA-defined value for AH or
   ESP.

5.2.  Forwarding Procedures

   General requirements for IP nodes are defined in [RFC1122], [RFC1812]
   [RFC1812], and [RFC8504], [RFC8504] and are not modified by this document.  The
   typical next-hop selection process is impacted by DetNet.
   Specifically, implementations of this document SHALL use management
   and control information to select the one or more outgoing interfaces
   and next hops to be used for a packet associated with a DetNet flow.
   Specific management and control information will be defined in future
   documents, e.g., [I-D.ietf-detnet-yang]. [DetNet-YANG].

   The use of multiple paths or links, e.g., ECMP, to support a single
   DetNet flow is NOT RECOMMENDED.  ECMP MAY be used for non-DetNet
   flows within a DetNet domain.

   The above implies that management and control functions will be
   defined to support this requirement, e.g., see
   [I-D.ietf-detnet-yang]. [DetNet-YANG].

5.3.  DetNet IP Traffic Treatment Procedures

   Implementations of this document must ensure that a DetNet flow
   receives the traffic treatment that is provisioned for it via
   configuration or the controller plane, Controller Plane, e.g., via
   [I-D.ietf-detnet-yang]. [DetNet-YANG].
   General information on DetNet service can be found in [I-D.ietf-detnet-flow-information-model].
   [DetNet-Flow-Info].  Typical mechanisms used to provide different
   treatment to different flows
   includes include the allocation of system
   resources (such as queues and buffers) and provisioning of related
   parameters (such as shaping, shaping and policing).  Support can also be
   provided via an underlying network technology such as MPLS [I-D.ietf-detnet-ip-over-mpls]
   [DetNet-IP-over-MPLS] or IEEE802.1 IEEE 802.1 TSN [I-D.ietf-detnet-ip-over-tsn]. [DetNet-IP-over-TSN].  Other
   mechanisms than the ones used in the TSN case are outside the scope
   of this document.

6.  Management and Control Information Summary

   The following summarizes the set of information that is needed to
   identify individual and aggregated DetNet flows:

   o

   *  IPv4 and IPv6 source address field.

   o Source Address field.

   *  IPv4 and IPv6 source address prefix length, where a zero (0) value
      effectively means that the address Source Address field is ignored.

   o

   *  IPv4 and IPv6 destination address Destination Address field.

   o

   *  IPv4 and IPv6 destination address prefix length, where a zero (0)
      value effectively means that the address Destination Address field is
      ignored.

   o

   *  IPv4 protocol Protocol field.  A limited set of values is allowed, and the
      ability to ignore this field is desirable.

   o

   *  IPv6 next header Next Header field.  A limited set of values is allowed, and
      the ability to ignore this field is desirable.

   o

   *  For the IPv4 Type of Service and IPv6 Traffic Class Fields:

      * fields:

      -  Whether or not the DSCP field is used in flow identification.
         Use of the DSCP field for flow identification is optional.

      *

      -  If the DSCP field is used to identify a flow, then the flow
         identification information (for that flow) includes a list of
         DSCPs used by that flow.

   o

   *  IPv6 flow label Flow Label field.  This field can be optionally used for
      matching.  When used, this field can be used instead of matching
      against the Next Header field.

   o

   *  TCP and UDP Source Port.  Support for both exact and wildcard
      matching is required.  Port ranges can optionally be used.

   o

   *  TCP and UDP Destination Port.  Support for both exact and wildcard
      matching is required.  Port ranges can optionally be used.

   o

   *  IPsec Header SPI field.  Exact matching is required.  Support for
      wildcard matching is recommended.

   o

   *  For end systems, an optional maximum IP packet size that should be
      used for that outgoing DetNet IP flow.

   This information MUST be provisioned per DetNet flow via
   configuration, e.g., via the controller Controller Plane or the management
   plane.

   An implementation MUST support ordering of the set of information
   information
   used to identify an individual DetNet flow.  This can, for example,
   be used to provide a DetNet service for a specific UDP flow, with
   unique Source and Destination Port field values, while providing a
   different service for the aggregate of all other flows with that same
   UDP Destination Port value.

   It is the responsibility of the DetNet controller plane Controller Plane to properly
   provision both flow identification information and the flow specific flow-specific
   resources needed to provided provide the traffic treatment needed to meet each
   flow's service requirements.  This applies for aggregated and
   individual flows.

7.  Security Considerations

   Detailed security considerations for DetNet are cataloged in
   [I-D.ietf-detnet-security],
   [DetNet-Security], and more general security considerations are
   described in [RFC8655].  This section considers exclusively considers security
   considerations which that are specific to the DetNet IP data plane.

   Security aspects which that are unique to DetNet are those whose aim is to
   provide the specific quality of service QoS aspects of DetNet, which are primarily to
   deliver data flows with extremely low packet loss rates and bounded
   end-to-end delivery latency.  Achieving such loss rates and bounded
   latency may not be possible in the face of a highly capable
   adversary, such as the one envisioned by the Internet Threat Model of
   BCP 72 [RFC3552] that can arbitrarily drop or delay any or all
   traffic.  In order to present meaningful security considerations, we
   consider a somewhat weaker attacker who does not control the physical
   links of the DetNet domain, domain but may have the ability to control a
   network node within the boundary of the DetNet domain.

   The primary consideration for the DetNet data plane is to maintain
   integrity of data and delivery of the associated DetNet service
   traversing the DetNet network.  Since no DetNet-specific fields are
   available in the DetNet IP data plane, the integrity and
   confidentiality of application flows can be protected through
   whatever means are provided by the underlying technology.  For
   example, encryption may be used, such as that provided by IPSec IPsec
   [RFC4301] for IP flows and/or by an underlying sub-net sub-network using MACSec
   MACsec [IEEE802.1AE-2018] for IP over Ethernet (Layer-2) (Layer 2) flows.

   From a data plane perspective perspective, this document does not add or modify
   any header information.

   At the management and control level level, DetNet flows are identified on a
   per-flow basis, which may provide controller plane Controller Plane attackers with
   additional information about the data flows (when compared to
   controller planes
   Controller Planes that do not include per-flow identification).  This
   is an inherent property of DetNet which that has security implications that
   should be considered when determining if DetNet is a suitable
   technology for any given use case.

   To provide uninterrupted availability of the DetNet service,
   provisions can be made against DOS DoS attacks and delay attacks.  To
   protect against DOS DoS attacks, excess traffic due to malicious or
   malfunctioning devices can be prevented or mitigated, mitigated -- for example example,
   through the use of existing mechanism mechanisms such as policing and shaping
   applied at the input of a DetNet domain or within an edge IEEE802.1 IEEE 802.1
   TSN domain.  To prevent DetNet packets from being delayed by an
   entity external to a DetNet domain, DetNet technology definition definitions can
   allow for the mitigation of Man-In-The-Middle attacks, man-in-the-middle attacks -- for example example,
   through the use of authentication and authorization of devices within
   the DetNet domain.
