Tom: So, is ALTO, PCE, Yang modules with topology in scope. Are you stating that we do not re-inventing the ALTO functions topology (see previous note)? Sue -----Original Message----- From: irs-discuss-bounces@ietf.org [mailto:irs-discuss-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Nadeau Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2012 3:32 PM To: James Kempf; irs-discuss@ietf.org Subject: Re: [irs-discuss] Suggestions for IRS Way Forward I agree that one of the top work items for this effort should be a standardized topology function, and one that is accessible via a non-routing protocol. While not exactly "low hanging fruit", it is something that (to me) is a clear work item with clear goals that should be tackled straight away. --Tom On 8/2/12 3:24 PM, "James Kempf" <james.kempf@ericsson.com> wrote: >So after seeing part of Alia's talk this morning (I had to leave in the >middle unfortunately), I'd like to make a couple suggestions.
