Hi Greg,


  1.  As you mentioned, grouping mpls-label-stack is defined in routing-types, so MPLS LSE is covered, right?
  2.  Bottom-of-the-stack flag should not be needed in the model,  because the label stack is a list with sequence ID’s, which tell us the beginning and the end of the stack.
  3.  The discussion on static MPLS LSP has started, but not converged yet. There are still open issues w.r.t. how to model the label stack and stack operations. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Do you have a proposal?
Thanks,
- Xufeng

Hi Acee,
I think rather of the contrary, Static MPLS LSP must include TC and TTL. And Bottom-of-the-stack flag as well (I don't see it in grouping mpls-label-stack of the ietf-routing-types).

Regards,
Greg

Dear Authors, et.al<http://et.al>,
I've got a question, or several of them, about data models of MPLS label and MPLS label stack element (LSE). I ahve not followed the discussions and apologize if these already were considered, discussed.
In the Routing Types document I've found that only MPLS label being modeled but not the MPLS LSE. As result, models that use rt-types:mpls-label, e.g. YANG DAta Model for MPLS Static LSPs, defines outgoing labels not as array of LSEs but as array (leaf-list) of MPLS labels. In the latter document I don't see how TTL and Traffic Class (TC) are presented for each of labels in the array. Hence my questions:

  *   should there be data model of MPLS LSE in rt-types (it does have TTL and TC but separately);

  *   should data model of Static MPLS LSP use MPLS LSE model rather than model of only 20 bit-long label.
Where else so you see  a requirement for a label stack with entries that don’t contain TC and TTL? This seems specific to static provisioning of static LSPs rather than a general requirement for ietf-routing-types.

Thanks,
Acee


Appreciate you comments.
