Proto-write-up for draft-ietf-l1vpn-ospf-auto-discovery-05 Intended status : Standards Track Recommend that this I-D is progressed in parallel with three other I-Ds: - draft-ietf-l1vpn-applicability-basic-mode - draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode - draft-ietf-l1vpn-bgp-auto-discovery > (1.a) Who is the Document Shepherd for this document?

Adrian Farrel is the document shepherd.

The draft was introduced to the OSPF WG and presented at an OSPF WG meeting as it was being developed. This led to constructive feedback that was incorporated in the I-D. WG last call was shared with the OSPF WG and this led to additional review comments. > (1.c) Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document > needs more review from a particular or broader perspective, > e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with > AAA, internationalization or XML?

There were no problems with consensus for this document. However, there was strong debate about whether an IGP should be used for this function or whether it was better to use BGP (see the write-up for draft-ietf-l1vpn-bgp-auto-discovery). The conclusion of this debate was that: - Using OSPF has advantages in the eyes of optical equipment vendors since they already implement OSPF-TE, but do not have BGP implementations. - There are some potential scaling issues for OSPF. This point is now explicitly stated in the I-D, with the caveat that this OSPF deployment is limited to within the optical domain and so does not have wider implications for OSPF in the Internet. An alternate deployment using multiple instances to reduce the scaling impact is also presented. The WG decided that it would be best to have both an OSPF and a BGP solution proceed at this stage. > (1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme > discontent?

This document defines an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) based Layer-1 Virtual Private Network (L1VPN) auto-discovery mechanism. This mechanism enables provider edge (PE) devices using OSPF to dynamically learn about existence of each other, and attributes of configured customer edge (CE) links and their associations with L1VPNs. This document builds on L1VPN framework and requirements, and provides a L1VPN basic mode auto-discovery mechanism. > Working Group Summary > Was there anything in WG process that is worth noting?

OSPF-TE is widely implemented and deployed for optical networks. This document makes a very simple extension to that work and so is simple to add to existing implementations. Although L1VPNs are not currently deployed, various experiments and interop demos have been conducted. Most of these have focused on signaling with manual configuration rather than autodiscovery, but at least one implementation with OSPF autodiscovery is known of, and this has been used to show a proof-of-concept. Note that there is nothing to prevent the development of an identical set of extensions to ISIS-TE. This has been put to the WG as an option on several occasions, but there have been no volunteers to write an I-D and no indication of any intent to implement. This should not be a surprise as, although there are many implementations of ISIS-TE and a very few of GMPLS ISIS, there are no known GMPLS ISIS implementations for optical equipment. Nothing precludes a future development of suitable ISIS extensions being developed in the future either in the L1VPN WG or the ISIS WG. _______________________________________________ L1vpn mailing list L1vpn@ietf.org http://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/l1vpn
