I haven't seen a good description of what is intended or desired by moving the SPF functionality to a centralized location. Clearly such centralization can have a very bad impact on convergence - which is a strong motivator for simultaneously computing fast-reroute alternatives (with guaranteed coverage ala MRT) and installing both. I don't see IRS as having a way of "turning off" the SPF computation in the IGP; a different lobotomized IGP protocol/process would be needed.

The application would compute SPF on behalf of each router (LSDB). The result of the compute would be pushed by application to each Router (thru controller) and inject entries into RIB. > > Is that correct?

To be realistic, I have some concerns on how much "real-timeness" we could achieve between application and controllers on such proposals, esp. when scaling numbers are high. This leads to higher time lag on inconsistency between application SPF compute and FIB update. It's almost like the classic "slow peering" issues with TCP like protocols - the high performance peer is slowed down by low performance peer. > > Static route interface is good thing because it is a state that persists longer. > > IGPs may be deployed in very dynamic environments where tight coupling is desirable between SPF compute and FIB update.
