Draft minutes from Seoul
Very many thanks to Eric Gray for doing the hard work and
for supplying an excellent set of minutes.
There are a couple of gaps. Please let me know what you said (or want you want recorded
:-).
Comments as soon as possible, please.
Thanks,
Adrian
Common Control and Measurement Plane WG (ccamp)
THURSDAY, March 4 at 0900-1130
===============================
CHAIRS: Kireeti Kompella <kireeti@juniper.net>
Adrian Farrel <adrian@olddog.co.uk>
AGENDA:

Chairs
Admin - Nothing much to say (in English anyway)
- In Korean, however, the following was said:
"Jigeumbuteo CCAMP meetingeul sijakhagesumnida".
Agenda bash (5 mins) - No changes
Status of WG drafts and milestones
Adrian's slides showed that we do have some draft
congestion in the WG.
- RFC editor queue
- status of IANA for SONET/SDH
Kireeti talked about an issue with SONET/SDH IANA
assignments
- need a means to get early assignments.
There is WIP to accomplish this, and it is moving
ahead.
- future allocation of "experimental" values
Liaisons
---
Marco Carugi talked about work in SG-13 (SG13 liaison).
He covered topics, new study areas, timescales, objectives
and status. They are also looking for people interested in
doing work in these areas.
An L1 VPN questionnaire and framework draft were attached
to the liaison.
Tomonori Takeda talked about the technical issues and
details of the work.
Monique Morrow had a couple of clarification for Marco -
When will the consent portion of the work be done in the
ITU?
Marco said that the different pieces of work were
progressing at different speeds. Some material is
already embodied in recommendations. The next SG13
meetings are in June and September.
Dimitri Papadimitriou asked if the liaison could include
a summarization of the purpose and intent of the liaison.
Kireeti answered. If CCAMP's rechartering this month
results in the addition of L1VPNs to the charter, then
a Liaison response from the IETF will include this
information, plus a request for a cooperative effort,
preferably along the lines of the ASON routing work,
wherein the ITU-T defines the requirements and the IETF
does the protocol extensions.
Alex Zinin said that we will have to make a decision at
some point as to whether or not we want to do this work
here.
Someone from NTT raised a point that was not captured in
the minutes.
Deborah Brungard said that there is work and some synergy
and that we should continue to work on this.
Monique Morrow agrees that we should work on that.
Marco added some comments that were not captured in the
minutes.
Malcolm Betts said he also feels that we should do this.
Adrian took a quick poll and it seems as if nobody is
against doing this work.
Kireeti reminded people to continue this discussion on
the list.
---
Lyndon Ong talked about work in SG-15 (3 liaisons).
Liaisons were on ASON routing requirements, response to
comments on Q14 for G.7713.2 and comments on the CCAMP
ASON signaling requirements draft.
Lyndon spent much of the time on the details of response
to comments on Q14. It seems that some of the differences
in architectural models revolve around "end-to-end" and
"call segment" operating models.
Kireeti asked for the reply by date.
Lyndon did not have that.
Steve Trowbridge said that the meeting starts on April
19th
Dimitri had a question on the deadline. Isn't there a
similar deadline on (G.7713).
Lyndon said that he had not gone into that. He gave a
reason, but this was not captured in the minutes.
Deborah said that the liaison for 7713.2 does not say any
thing about convergence.
Lyndon said that they are still looking for a "meeting
of the minds".
Deborah said that there is an issue with G.7713.2 because
of compatibility.
Lyndon said that yes there has been a lot of discussion
of compatibility questions and requirements.
Kireeti said that we should not discuss this here.
Steve Trowbridge added some comments that were not
captured in the minutes.
Kireeti asked the WG to take this discussion to the list
and try to keep that discussion on a productive basis.
Adrian said that he wanted to recognize the efforts of
the ITU folks in this work.
===
ASON Requirements and Solutions
---
Dimitri Papadimitriou presented status of ASON Signaling
Requirements (draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-ason-reqts-05.txt.
The requirements were driven by last years liaison from
the ITU.
After this meeting, Dimitri would like to re-spin the
draft and have a two week last call.
Lyndon said he wants to capture the requirement - whether
or not we will work on it here.
Kireeti said that we first need to understand importance
of this and then we can look to the ADs for guidance on
handling this. He also said that we should take some time
to work out what we want to say to the ITU when we include
the current draft.
---
Dimitri Papadimitriou gave status ASON Signaling Solutions
(draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-rsvp-te-ason-01.txt) status.
He would like feedback on whether or not the current draft
deals correctly with the session attribute.
His objective at this point is to try to have last call
on this
Lyndon suggested that we might remove the comparison with
G.7713 from the draft.
Adrian asked if this meant that the interworking draft
for RFC3473/4 interworking was now obsolete.
Lyndon said maybe, if interworking is removed as a
requirement.
---
Lou Berger talked about Egress Control -
draft-berger-gmpls-egress-control-01.txt -
Original egress label control became explicit label
control. This draft attempts to capture the original
intent.
He wants to know if the WG feels that this is ready to
be a BCP and what the chairs think the next steps should
be.
Lou re-iterated that the purpose and scope of the draft
is for clarification. He does not see any value in adding
to this intent or combining it with other work.
Adrian then took a poll and nobody objected to take this
on as a WG item (more than a third were in favor).
---
Lyndon Ong went over status on ASON Routing Requirements -
draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-ason-routing-reqts-02.txt
He includes in his presentation his conclusions as to what
there is agreement that stuff is missing and areas in which
there is still contention.
Kireeti asked Lyndon to more formally open this discussion
on the mailing list.
Vishal Sharma said that he supports this.
Kireeti said he would like - after checking with the AD -
that we should take this work to the IS-IS and OSPF WGs.
Alex Zinin said this is a good idea.
===
Tunnel Trace
---
Ron Bonica presented status on draft-bonica-tunproto-05.txt
The solution is very similar to Trace-Route but does not
require that each node in a tunnel supports TTL decrement.
He gave a few examples as to how the idea in the draft
will work in a few scenarios.
There are a couple of outstanding issues:
- trace requires a route to tunnel head end
- integration with LSP ping.
He would like to get the draft accepted as a WG draft.
Yakov asked what SPs use today for tunnel tracing.
Ron said that in some case people can use ICMP for MPLS.
Yakov then asked if we could get a BCP on what people are
doing.
Ron asked if he should resubmit his earlier draft on
this.
Kireeti said that we do not want to decide that now.
===
Protection and Restoration
---
Dimitri Papadimitriou presented status on the work of the
Protection and Restoration Team - specifically:
1) draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-recovery-analysis-02.txt
2) draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-recovery-functional-01.txt
3) draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-recovery-terminology-03.txt
4) draft-lang-ccamp-gmpls-recovery-e2e-signaling-02.txt
He gave estimates on the timing for each of the above
drafts (estimated completion dates).
He outlined the changes to the e2e signaling ID (draft 4,
above).
He encouraged the WG to really read the documents and
comment.
Kireeti polled for consensus on the following:
a) Analysis - last call? Some support, no objection
b) Functional - last call? Some support, no objection
c) Terminology - last call? Some support, no objection
d) e2e Signaling - WG document? Some support, no object
People at the microphone were asked to take their
questions to the list.
---
Lou Berger presented an overview of work on Segment
Recovery - draft-berger-ccamp-gmpls-segment-recovery-00.txt
He also talked about what still needs to be done (next
steps), including more usage scenarios, more explanatory
text and see if the WG will adopt this work.
Arthi Ayyangar asked if the association object is required
even if we are only doing segment recovery (as opposed to
e2e). She had follow up questions that Kireeti asked her
to take to the list.
Adrian polled for support of accepting this as a WG draft.
There was moderate support and no objection.
===
Inter-Area/AS
---
Arthi Ayyangar talked about the status of the merged draft
on Inter-area/AS signaling -
draft-vasseur-ccamp-inter-area-as-te-00.txt
The draft currently represents a full merge - work is still
required to strip out redundant and unneeded text.
She said that the authors encourage people to come forward
with their comments. She would also like to see if there
is interest in this work becoming a WG document.
Vishal Sharma said that he supports separating some of the
path computation mechanisms from the rest of the document
and removal of applicability text.
Dimitri agreed on the subject of separating the document
and made some suggestions for clarification of the draft.
Arthi asked that Dimitri take his specific comments to
the list.
Kireeti said that he agrees that the document needs to be
split - one as a signaling and another (informational) to
provide examples for path computation. He also said that
we need a separate applicability document.
---
Vishal Sharma talked about work on Inter-area path
protection
draft-dachille-inter-area-path-protection-00.txt
He provided a brief overview of how it works, and showed
how it relates to other work in progress. He also listed
the next steps.
Zafar Ali asked how this would work if there is a failure
at the time during which the backup path is being setup.
Zafar and Vishal chatted for a while and then Kireeti
asked them to take the discussion to the list.
Dimitri asked why the document is so focused on
optimization.
Kireeti asked that further discussion on this should be
taken to the list.
Also, he said that Dimitri had a good point - we need to
define criteria on which any optimization is based.
===
Control Pane Resilience, Hello Protocol and Graceful Restart
---
Young Hwa Kim gave a presentation on Requirements for the
Resilience of Control Plane in GMPLS -
draft-kim-ccamp-cpr-reqts-00.txt
He described the reasons why control plane resilience is
needed.
Zafar asked how control plane resilience is different from
anything else in IP.
Steve Trowbridge said that their is also some work in this
area in the ITU and he would try to get this in as a
liaison as soon as possible.
Kireeti said that this is an important discussion and
there are a lot of things to do. Specific topics should be
raised on the list when appropriate.
---
Lou Berger went over Extensions to GMPLS RSVP Graceful
Restart
draft-aruns-ccamp-rsvp-restart-ext-00
He emphasized that egress restart is already covered in
RFC3473 and this work has no effect on that functionality.
He gave a brief overview and listed open issues.
Next steps include merging with other restart drafts and
seeing if this work can become a WG draft.
Arthi said that she feels that the document focuses too
much on the ERO. She feels that the draft should address
other issues and concerns with the mechanism.
Lou asked if she would like to contribute text.
The chairs then asked for other discussion to go to the
list.
---
Zafar Ali talked about Extensions to GMPLS RSVP Graceful
Restart
draft-rahman-ccamp-rsvp-restart-extensions-00.txt
Kireeti said that he appreciated the honesty of the
authors in acknowledging other work.
Nurit Sprecher asked about the relationship to FRR and
similar issues.
Adrian agreed that these were important issues and had
been raised on the list in recent days. He asked the
authors to make sure that they cover the points in the
draft.
---
Zafar then covered modifications to Hello procedures
1) draft-ali-ccamp-rsvp-node-id-based-hello-00.txt
2) draft-ali-ccamp-rsvp-hello-gr-admin-00.txt
He wants to go forward with draft 1 above.
Adrian polled and there was some interest and no strong
objection.
Kireeti said that this work cannot be informational if
it has - or proposes - changes to a standard.
Zafar also wants draft 2 to be a WG document.
Kireeti said that we need to take this to the list, but
Zafar also needs to socialize the work he is doing so that
people may decide whether or not this is work we want to
do.
===
Everything Else
---
Emmanuel Dotaro gave status of Multi-region protection -
draft-vigoureux-shiomoto-ccamp-gmpls-mrn-04.txt
He briefly covered changes since previous versions.
He proposes that we may need to make changes to the
charter to include all of this work.
Adrian suggested that the authors need to get more people
involved in this important work and revisit this later.
---
Jean-Louis Le Roux - Advertizing TE Capabilities in IGPs
draft-vasseur-ccamp-isis-te-caps-00.txt
He would like to have this accepted as a WG document.
Adrian asked to hold off on this until after the OSPF talk
below.
---
Seisho Yasukawa
draft-vasseur-ccamp-ospf-te-caps-00.txt
He would like to have this accepted as a WG document.
Regarding both drafts, Kireeti is not sure that this work
belongs in this WG. The decision is driven by the
generality of its applicability. If we do take it on, their
needs to be a functional specification (independent of IGP)
as well.
He asked that further discussion be taken to the list.
---
The Following presentations were postponed as we ran out
of time. Adrian made a couple of brief comments as follows:
---
Zafar Ali - Explicit Resource Control and Tracking
draft-zamfir-explicit-resource-control-bundle-03.txt
This work concerns identification of component links in
EROs and RROs.
A small group is currently examining other issues
concerning identification of component links in all
aspects of GMPLS. A draft is expected soon. Please mail
Adrian or the list, if you want to be involved in this
work.
---
Lou Berger - Alarm Reporting
draft-berger-ccamp-gmpls-alarm-spec-01.txt
This draft is stable and complete in the view of the
authors.
A quick poll showed some support for this being a WG
document, and no opposition. This will be taken to the
list.
