Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-addressing-01.txt



Hi Jean-Louis

Thank you for your comments. Your point sounds important when we consider the case IPv4 and IPv6 coexist.

But I feel that the IPv4 and IPv6 interwork seems a little bit future topic in a (G)MPLS context, in particular, from the control plane perspective.

I would be happy if you could provide your experience with the actual network operation and contribution.

Best regards,

Hi Kohei, Rajiv, Richard,

I have on comment related to your GMPLS addressing ID:
In section 5.2 you recommend, that in the session object, the IP tunnel end-point be set to the destination TE router id and that the extended tunnel id be set to the source TE router id, which makes sense. But as per 3209, a session object can either encode IPv4 or IPv6 addresses but not both types, and there may be an issue if source TE router id is IPv6 and destination TE router id is IPv4 (or vice versa). This may happen for instance with inter-AS/SP LSPs. IMHO we should address this point.

Best Regards,

JL

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Common Control and Measurement Plane Working Group of the IETF.


Title : Use of Addresses in Generalized Multi-Protocol
Label Switching (GMPLS) Networks
Author(s) : K. Shiomoto, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-addressing-01.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2005-6-21

This document explains and clarifies the use of addresses in Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) networks. The aim of this document is to facilitate and ensure better interworking of GMPLS-capable Label Switching Routers (LSRs) based on experience gained in deployments and interoperability testing and proper interpretation of published RFCs. The document recommends a proper approach for the interpretation and choice of address and identifier fields within GMPLS protocols and references specific control plane usage models. It also examines some common GMPLS Resource Reservation Protocol-Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) signaling message processing issues and recommends solutions. It finally discusses how to handle IPv6 sources and destinations in the MPLS and GMPLS TE (Traffic Engineering) MIB (Management Information Base) modules.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.


Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
