Abstract:

   Most of the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) message types make
   provision for data in Type, Length, Value (TLV) format.  However,
   Route Monitoring messages (which provide a snapshot of the monitored
   Routing Information Base) Stats Reports (which supply periodical
   counters) and Peer Down messages (which indicate that a peering
   session was terminated) do not.  Supporting (optional) data in TLV
   format across all BMP message types provides consistent and
   extensible structures that would be useful among the various use-
   cases where conveying additional data to a monitoring station is
   required.  This document updates RFC 7854 [RFC7854] to support TLV
   data in all message types and defines some essential TLVs.

   Additionally, this document introduces support for enterprise-
   specific TLVs in the BGP Monitoring Protocol by defining an
   Enterprise Bit (E-bit) that allows usage of per-vendor Type values.
