Fw: I-D ACTION:draft-farrel-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-00.txt

Hi,

We have put together a first cut of a MIB module for P2MP MPLS-TE.

This is intended to also work for P2MP GMPLS so please review it and 
comment. Comments would best be made on the MPLS mailing list so that all 
discussion of the document are kept in one place.

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Dimitri,

Well, Walter is the best person to ask since it was his message.

Some parsing problems on your sentence, but I think you are saying what I 
thought when I read this.

Effectively, I assumed that "broadcast connection" and "multicast 
connection" were intended to be synonyms for P2MP LSP (possibly with slight 
differences in usage maybe through label stacking).

Re: A new ID is available on the repository draft-caviglia-ccamp-pc-and-sc-reqs-00

Interesting question.

It would certainly be the case that the picture you draw could arise. I 
guess we would describe this in terms of SPCs. Is it necessary that 
identical state is held at [a] and [b]. In particular, the question of 
Session ID and LSP ID spring to mind.

Yes, we need clear requirements for this type of situation.  Want to suggest 
some?

RE: A new ID is available on the repository draft-caviglia-ccamp- pc-and-sc-reqs-00

Adrian and Dimitri,

Not sure why we need extra requirements to handle this case. Also not sure
why CP needs to guarantee identical states at [a] and [b]. May be I am not
understanding the case that is being pictured here.

The way I read the requirements, once the control is transferred to MP
(i.e., CP[a] -> MP), CP should forget everything about this LSP, Isn't it? 

If this is true, then MP -> CP[b] should be treated as the ONLY general case
of MP -> CP conversion, right?

Regards,
Vijay

Re: A new ID is available on the repository draft-caviglia-ccamp- pc-and-sc-reqs-00

Hi,

I read Dimitri's comments as being spatial not temporal.
I.e. he drew a figure showing four LSRs.

Dimitri?

Cheers,
Adrian

[DL] Yes, CP SHOULD NOT keep any state of this LSP.

Hi Dimitri,

If I understand correctly, you have drawn a scenario like this:
Step 1: A PC is migrated to a SC;
Step 2: Then the SC is migrated to a PC;
Step 3: Then the PC is migrated to a SC again;

So how to guarantee the state of a SC at the step 3 is same as the state of a SC at the step 1, am I right?

I think we don't need to keep the same state of the SC at different steps, for example, the session ID of a SC at
step 1 MAY be different with the session ID of a SC at step 3.

I greatly appreciate your comments, hope you can help with this work.

Best regards,

Dan

RE: A nerw ID is available on the repository draft-caviglia-ccamp-pc-and-sc-reqs-00

Dear Author,

The conversion between PC and SPC as documented is useful
sometimes, and there was example in carriers networks
in the past as such from PC to SPC although with other
data plane technologies. And so I support this I-D.

Some suggestions:

1) Regarding the division of resources (Section 1.2 etc.).

   This is not only an "implementation" issue. If we allow
   the conversion, it should be defined clearly architecturally.

2) In addition to the "ownership" and "resource division",
   it might also be useful to mention interaction and
   resource transition between CP and MP during the conversion
   as required.

3) In Section 4.1, it may be clearer to say normal make-before-break
   is not an option for the requirement here (data plane consistency).

Thanks
Dean
