RE: ASON reqts

["Ong, Lyndon" <LyOng@Ciena.com>]

Hi Deborah,

Just wanted to clear up a point - 7713.1 supports NSAP format
addresses, however there are methods of mapping IPv4 and IPv6
addresses into the NSAP format, so there is no fundamental
limitation in this (also, I believe the ATMF has or is working
on a document on address format mapping).

I think the discussion seems to be pointing out that some
ASON requirements just don't fall within the scope of IETF
work, so it may not be appropriate to address them in IETF
(hmm, sounds like how 3474 was created...)

Cheers,

Lyndon
