Hi Folks, I would like to raise 2 concerns with having this working group adopt draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-lsr-mib-01.txt (aka GMPLS-LSR-MIB) and draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-te-mib-01.txt (aka GMPLS-TE-MIB): 1) Since these 2 proposed MIBs (GMPLS-LSR-MIB and GMPLS-TE-MIB) are updates to 2 of the MIBs in the MPLS working group, namely the MPLS-LSR-MIB and the MPLS-TE-MIB, I think these MIBs should be proposed in the MPLS working group which is where folks have experience in implementing and using them. In my opinion the additions for GMPLS to these MIBs is minor and it would be better to stick with the MPLS working group for these MIBs. 2) The choice of names for these MIBs, i.e. GMPLS-LSR-MIB and GMPLS-TE-MIB, does not follow how the IETF names a new version of a MIB. The current trend in the IETF is to use the same name for the draft versions of an existing MIB and differentiate this with the draft title (and eventually a new RFC number). As examples: draft-ietf-atommib-rfc2558bis-00.txt with MIB name: SONET-MIB draft-ietf-atommib-rfc2496bis-00.txt with MIB name: DS3-MIB draft-ietf-hubmib-etherif-mib-v3-00.txt with MIB name: EtherLike-MIB draft-ietf-hubmib-mau-mib-v3-00.txt with MIB name: MAU-MIB draft-ietf-snmpv3-update-mib-07.txt with MIB name: SNMPv2-MIB and many others... My biggest concern is that the names of GMPLS-LSR-MIB and GMPLS-TE-MIB will be confusing and misleading to customers. Could these be renamed MPLS-LSR-MIB and MPLS-TE-MIB, and thus, accurately reflect what they are? thanks, -Joan Cheenu Srinivasan wrote: > > We would like to request that these four I-Ds be adopted as CCAMP > working group documents. > > Thanks, > Tom, Cheenu, Adrian, Tim, Ed > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Cheenu Srinivasan > > Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 12:48 PM > > To: ccamp@ops.ietf.org > > Cc: Thomas Nadeau (E-mail); Adrian Farrel (E-mail); Tim Hall (E-mail); > > Ed Harrison (E-mail) > > Subject: GMPLS MIB I-D updates > > > > > > The following I-D updates have been posted: > > > > draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-tc-mib-01.txt > > draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-lsr-mib-01.txt > > draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-te-mib-01.txt > > draft-nadeau-ccamp-gmpls-label-mib-01.txt > > > > They are aligned with each other and have been verified to > > compile cleanly with smilint. > > > > They should appear on the IETF's site shortly.
