Re: [Idr] [Teas] draft-chen-idr-bgp-ls-sr-policy-nrp was just discussed ///Re: Associating a TE Tunnel/Policy with an NRP

Ran, Ketan,
The only NRP specific protocol extension that has been endorsed by TEAS so
far is the one related to associating a TE Tunnel/Policy with an NRP. The
motivation behind this association is to ensure that the TE paths are
computed, placed and maintained within the topology associated with the
specified NRP. There was no objection raised by the WG for such an
extension (defined in PCEP or BGP). It is my understanding that
ietf-idr-sr-policy-nrp was adopted in IDR based on this guidance.

Since, draft-chen-idr-bgp-ls-sr-policy-nrp is being positioned as a
companion document for ietf-idr-sr-policy-nrp (for policy state reporting),
the same guidance as earlier should apply to this document (imho).

TEAS WG,

Please provide feedback on the draft.

Regards,

-Pavan
