Body:
 
Thank you for your Liaison Statement - LS on the consent of draft
Recommendation ITU-T Q.3962 (ex. Q.joint_tr) "Requirements and Reference
Model for optimized traceroute of joint Internet Protocol/Multi-Protocol
Label Switching" dated 2023-10-24. This has been passed on to the MPLS
working group by the OPSAWG for consideration.
 
The MPLS working group would like to thank you for sharing your requirements
as expressed in Q.3962.

Our current understanding of your requirements suggests that all or most of
your requirements can be addressed using existing IP/MPLS OAM tools, and
that no further protocol work is necessary.
 
We would welcome all experts to bring these requirements to the IETF's MPLS
working group with a view to working collaboratively on an Informational RFC
that describes how to deliver the function you want to see. Obviously,
should any gaps be discovered during this process, the working group
would also be pleased to engage in additional protocol work to resolve any
issues using the procedures described in RFC 4775 and RFC 4929.

Kind regards,
Adrian Farrel, MPLS Working Group Co-Chair
(On behalf of the MPLS Working Group and Co-Chairs)
Joe Clarke, OPSAWG Co-Chair
