Re: [mpls] Working Group Last Call on draft-ietf-mpls-summary-frr-rsvpte

Hi Alexander,

I beleive MTU handling post FRR is not covered in base RFC4090 and is therefore an existing gap.
It kinda defeats the purpose if headend needs to adjust MTU after FRR to prevent drops… and would presume most deployments assume that backup MTU can accomandate MTU of primary LSP (plus any added MP labels).

Issue deserves discussion, but think its out of scope from this document.

Hi authors,

As far as Summary FRR LSPs are not being signaled via Path messages over bypass tunnel after failure, information on head-ends about actual path MTU of protected LSPs can be corrupted. For example, path MTU of protected LSP is 1500 bytes (provided that ADSPEC is used), and path MTU of bypass tunnel is, for example, 1500 bytes. As far as Path messages for protected LSPs are not being sent over bypass tunnel, MP will use ADSPEC received in Path messages of those protected LSPs previoulsy (before they have been rerouted onto bypass tunnel), i.e. 1500 bytes in place of 1496 bytes. To avoid this problem PLR would have to signal path MTU of its bypass tunnel in B-SFRR-Active object (alternatively, MP could inherit this value from ADSPEC of PSB of the bypass tunnel), and 2) MP would have to choose minimal of MTU values from ADSPEC objects while merging Summary FRR protected LSP. But, even in this case MP will have to generate trigger Path messages (with updated ADSPEC) for protected LSPs and then, after receiving Resv messages with updated FLOWSPEC, send them to PLR. I.e. summary refresh in MP->PLR direction with high probability will be inapplicable, due to trigger messages.

Thanks.

Working Group,

This mail initiates the two weeks working group last call on draft-ietf-mpls-summary-frr-rsvpte which is considered mature and ready for a final working group review.

Please read this document if you haven't read the most recent version yet, and send your comments to the mpls wg mailing list (mpls@ietf.org<mailto:mpls@ietf.org>), not later than 17th of May.

There is one IPR disclosure against draft-ietf-mpls-summary-frr-rsvpte

This working group last call ends May 17th, 2019 (there is at least in some countries a public holiday this week, therefore the call is a bit longer than usual).

Best regards

Nic
