Re: [Detnet-dp-dt] quick notes from 1/24/17 call

[Lou Berger <[e-mail]>]

Jouni/Team,

    Sounds like good progress. A couple of questions:

- I see you thinking about CoS,  That's good.  Have you thought about
how QoS (flow specific resource allocation) is tagged/managed?

- Have you had any discussions yet about DetNet without MPLS, i.e.,
DetNet flows over IP? If so, what are you thinking?

Thanks,

Lou

PS I will make it to one of these calls at some point...

The “detnet PW” label is end to end between detnet flow end points and unique within the detnet domain. This arrangement will cause 16 octet overhead (3x label + cw):

As a consequence adding new detnet flows to system is enable i.e., when the duplicate detection and elimination function sees a new “detnet PW” label, it can instantiate new function to deal with duplicate detection and elimination - dynamically.

However, it needs to be checked whether/how different CoS could be “propagated” through the label stack e.g., in a case where “detnet PW” labels/flows have different CoS needs. Need to check whether this is sufficient as a way forward.
