Re: [Bier] [nvo3] Poll for NVO3 WG adoption and IPR call for draft-ooamdt-rtgwg-ooam-header-03

Hi Carlos,
if we had the OAM requirements that WGs, i.e. NVO3, SFC, and BIER, agreed
on, then, I believe, we only had to check if the proposed solution
addresses one of the requirements. I strongly believe that having OAM
requirements as working document, not necessarily to be published, is very
helpful.
But I'm surprised that you suggest that defect indication, in peer and
multi-layer OAM interworking in not required. You're co-author of OAM
requirements draft in SPRING WG that has the following requirement:

   REQ#11:  When SR OAM is initialized from centralized controller, it
            MUST have the ability to alert any edge node in SR domain
            about the corresponding path or service failure.  The node
            on receiving the alert MAY take a local protection action or
            pop an informational message.

Isn't that the functionality that is exactly supported by RDI and AIS?
Then in BIER WG adopted OAM Requirements, that you are co-author ed, I find
this:

   10.  BIER OAM MUST support Reverse Defect Indication (RDI)
        notification of the source of continuity checking BFR by Bit-
        Forwarding Egress Routers (BFERs), e.g. by using Diag in p2mp
        BFD with active tail support.

and this

   13.  BIER OAM MUST support defect notification mechanism, like Alarm
        Indication Signal.  Any BFR in the given BIER domain MAY
        originate a defect notification addressed to any subset of BFRs
        within the domain.

You don't agree with these requirements?

Regards,
Greg
