Hi all,
I have a question about usage of BGP policies for "typed" SAFI in MP-BGP.

These days there are already quite a few "typed" SAFI, i.e., SAFI in which the 
NLRI of the route includes the route type followed by  the type-specific data.

Known cases include:

*       MCAST-VPN [RFC6514<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6514>]

*       MCAST-VPLS [RFC7117<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7117>]

*       EVPN [RFC7432<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7432>]

*       BGP-LS [RFC7752<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7752>]

*       CAR [Color-aware routing 
draft<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-car-10>].




It seems that the current definitions of BGP policies (e.g., see the BGP YANG 
Model<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-model-17> draft) 
do not provide ability to define conditions that would, when applied to a 
specific SAFI with "typed" NLRI, identify NLRI of specific type. One example 
could be a rule that would be applied to EVPN Type 5 (IP Prefix) routes and 
check their destination IP Prefix bin the same way destination IP prefixes can 
be checked for, say, VPNv4 or VPNv6 routes.

I wonder if the corresponding extension would be of any interest to the WG.


Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha
