RE: I-D ACTION:draft-farrel-ccamp-ero-survey-00.txt

Hi Julien,
           as a Carrier representative do you think that from your
prespective some ERO implementations are better than other?

E.g. from a carrier prespective having the possibility to use explicit ERO
with component link and label specification is nice_to_have, mandatory or
useless?

The above is just an example I'm not pushing a solution that include
component link and label.

Regards

Diego

Hi Adrian.

Let me quote:

"  individual who, although (or perhaps because) he is a working group
   chair, cannot necessarily be trusted. Thus, the IETF process is
   open to an attack by this individual."

I'm inclined to ask the following question: should the IETF stop allowing
such attack, or should we modify the chair implementation so as to inhibit
such behaviour? ;-)

For the chair's sake, I'd rather change the receiving side to handle as
many behaviours as possible, but I feel reducing sender's options will ease
interoperability. As a result, I agree with your proposed actions,
especially about making implementations converge on really required
options.

Cheers,

Julien

Hi,

Here are the results of the anonymous survey of ERO usage that was
triggered
by the Dallas discussion of the GMPLS Addressing I-D.

I have drawn some preliminary conclusions and included my advice in section

5.

Please have a look at the whole and make your comments to the list.

Thanks,
Adrian

PS If there is a bunch of other folk who suddenly feel the need to respond,

I can always produce a revised I-D.
