The following errata report has been submitted for RFC9568, "Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) Version 3 for IPv4 and IPv6".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid8300 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Quentin Armitage <quen...@armitage.org.uk> Section: 7.1 Original Text ------------- * It MUST verify that the VRID is configured on the receiving interface and the local router is not the IPvX address owner (Priority = 255 (decimal)). If any one of the above checks fails, the receiver MUST discard the packet, SHOULD log the event (subject to rate-limiting), and MAY indicate via network management that an error occurred. Corrected Text -------------- * It MUST verify that the VRID is configured on the receiving interface and the local router is not the IPvX address owner (Priority = 255 (decimal)). * If the received packet is an IPv6 packet, then: - It MUST verify that the first address in the IPvX Address(es) field is an IPv6 link-local address. If any one of the above checks fails, the receiver MUST discard the packet, SHOULD log the event (subject to rate-limiting), and MAY indicate via network management that an error occurred. Notes ----- The change only adds checking that the first IPv6 address is link-local. Section 5.2.9 states: For IPv6, the first address MUST be the IPv6 link-local address associated with the Virtual Router. Section 6.1 also states (although this may relate to the configuration rather than the VRRP packet contents): IPv6_Addresses One or more IPv6 addresses associated with this Virtual Router. Configured list of addresses with no default. The first address MUST be the Link-Local address associated with the Virtual Router. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". (If it is spam, it will be removed shortly by the RFC Production Center.) Please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party will log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC9568 (draft-ietf-rtgwg-vrrp-rfc5798bis-18) -------------------------------------- Title : Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) Version 3 for IPv4 and IPv6 Publication Date : April 2024 Author(s) : A.
