Re: [Idr] Part 3 of CAR/CT Adoption call (7/14/2022 to 7/27/2022) - Operational Differences

[Shraddha Hegde <[e-mail]>]

Robert,

As per the current version of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hr-spring-intentaware-routing-using-color/
Ability to aggregate the intent-aware route itself has not been listed as a specific requirement.
While ability to aggregate subscription routes has been listed as a requirement.

In case of MPLS forwarding plane, aggregation of intent aware routes is not feasible as you need distinct label for each <endpoint, color>. In case of SRv6, its feasible to summarize the intent-aware routes but it takes away
visibility into other granular information such as E2E metric, PE reachability etc and such a requirement
needs more discussion.

A pull model via automatic subscription routes has been listed as a scaling requirement for the solution in 
Sec 6.3.2.1 of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hr-spring-intentaware-routing-using-color/.
This is a much better scalability option IMO.

The 1.5M routes is from the problem statement in SPRING.  I'd suggest you take it up with that WG as to whether they think these were intended to be aggregatable.

Discussion of what aggregation could look like in a proposal is appropriate for IDR.

It's reasonable to ask the authors how they intend to address aggregation.
It's reasonable to point out text you think supports your thinking.

The following is not reasonable.

"Till that is fixed I recommend that CT draft goes back to the drawing board and would not be even accepted as experimental. Its experiment has just concluded as a failure."

Seriously.  Stop it.
