Re: [Detnet-dp-dt] Quick notes from 4/11/17 call

Jouni,

I have some slides for your consideration. The loopback will be introduced if we use the same PW labels to trigger PREF.
My opinion is, we can regard the PW between peering DA-S-PEs as the normal segment PW, and it is unnecessary to use the same PW label.

Thanks,
Yuanlong

Hi Yuanlong,

In Chicago discussion we agreed that incoming PWs for a given detnet flow need to have the same PW labels to trigger PREF. Labels can be different on each segment and direction, though. This is what we agreed.

The labels below PW label are still different when a packet arrives from DA-T-PE and peering DA-S-PE. I do not see the issue.
Also, what are “some cases” for looping you refer here?

Thanks,
