Re: [bess] WGLC, IPR and implementation poll for draft-ietf-bess-evpn-mh-split-horizon

Hi Luc,

As usual, that is an excellent point.
One of the two draft should start a registry in the IANA section. Stephane, chairs, any preference where this should reside?

@Luc, about this:

“This has come up before for e.g. draft-ietf-bess-evpn-l2gw-proto which requests a 3-bit field for load-bal modes.”

Since the single-active bit (all-active if set to 0) is specified in RFC7432 and draft-7432bis, I assume the l2gw draft would only request one bit of the registry, and not a 3-bit field, right?

Thank you,
Jorge

Hi,


I have a question concerning the IANA considerations section: IANA currently has no registry for the flags field of  EVPN ESI Label extended community to “request/allocate” SHT bits.

This has come up before for e.g. draft-ietf-bess-evpn-l2gw-proto which requests a 3-bit field for load-bal modes.

Should one or the other draft request an IANA registry ?

Hello Working Group,



This email starts a two weeks Working Group Last Call on draft-ietf-bess-evpn-mh-split-horizon [1].



This poll runs until *the 9th of Feb*.



We are also polling for knowledge of any undisclosed IPR that applies to this document, to ensure that IPR has been disclosed in compliance with IETF IPR rules (see RFCs 3979, 4879, 3669 and 5378 for more details).

If you are listed as an Author or a Contributor of this document please respond to this email and indicate whether or not you are aware of any relevant undisclosed IPR. The Document won't progress without answers from all the Authors and Contributors.



There is no IPR currently disclosed.



If you are not listed as an Author or a Contributor, then please explicitly respond only if you are aware of any IPR that has not yet been disclosed in conformance with IETF rules.



We are also polling for any existing implementation as per [2].



    Thank you,

    Stephane & Matthew
