Re: [CCAMP] Change 1: Introduction of resource pool entity (was Re: Moving the WSON discussion forward)

[Greg Bernstein <[e-mail]>]

Pierre, as previously stated multiple instances in OSPF-TE (RFC3630) 
allow one to decrease the flooding size for dynamic information. As 
RFC3630 indicates: "The Instance field is an arbitrary value used to 
maintain multiple Traffic Engineering LSAs.  A maximum of 16777216 
Traffic Engineering LSAs may be sourced by a single system.". This 
number of instances should be more than enough by far for all WSON 
applications.  Hence the proposed change is not needed.

Greg
