The following errata report has been verified 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 -------------------------------------- Status: Verified Type: Technical Reported by: Quentin Armitage <quen...@armitage.org.uk> Date Reported: 2025-02-17 Verified by: Jim Guichard (IESG) 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. -------------------------------------- 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.
