[mpls] Re: Working Group Last Call on draft-ietf-mpls-mna-hdr (2nd WG call)

[Tianran Zhou <[e-mail]>]

I do not agree with your chairs statement.

PSD is in the architecture and requirement draft and RFC. That’s already the consensus.

[WG chair hat: on]

As has been pointed out, we have not conducted a discussion and a consensus check on whether PSD is required. After discussions, WG leadership has decided not to take that path and that we will simply continue to progress documents and let discussions happen within that context.

Regards,
Tony

Hi,

I will defer to the chairs who are responsible for judging consensus.

Thanks,

Could you please point out how you get this?

Gyan,

There is no consensus that PSD is required and as Joel points out, the only PSD proposal on the table works just fine with draft-ietf-mpls-mna-hdr.

Dear Chairs & WG

To clarify my position on PSD work is that the work should be completed meaning at a minimum implemented by two vendors for interoperability and at WGLC state.  The MNA header draft now in WGLC could then be progressed including PSD solution.

Thank you

Gyan

Dear Chairs & WG

I agree with points raised by  Zafar, Jimmy, Tianran, Loe and other WG members that this is a hardware implementation that is standards track and that said must have a minimum two interoperable implementations.

I support both ISD and PSD.

There has been a lot of discussions on ML about both and I think both should be included in this draft as they are in the MNA framework architecture draft section 3.6.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-mpls-mna-fwk-10#name-encoding-of-post-stack-data

I agree the PSD work should be completed before we move forward with progressing this document.

This was from “IOAM and PSD” discussion this past summer:

From Michel Menth 8/3/23 below
- presented some results at an interim meeting before:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/interim-2024-mpls-01/session/mpls

IOAM requires mutable data. In combination with multiple labels, e.g., for SR, these mutable data need to be near the bottom of the stack, otherwise they get popped along the way. Moving them to PSD makes encoding more efficient without increasing the effective header length that needs  to be parsed. Therefore, we think PSD is the better option for applications like IOAM.

This draft is not ready for progression at this time.

Kind Regards

This is hardware implementation.

The ask is to progress the document as a standards track RFC.

Having at least two interoperable implementations by vendors should be a bare minimum bar.



Support for PSD is part of the MNA architecture
