Acee:

Hi!

I unfortunately won't we able to stay the whole week, so I wanted to give a short opinion on your comment below.

On 10/5/12 9:17 AM, "Acee Lindem" <acee.lindem@ericsson.com<mailto:acee.lindem@ericsson.com>> wrote:

If time allows, I'd like to lead a general discussion on the direction the WG wishes to take with respect to scaling. We have the TTZ draft on table but some, including myself, are not convinced this is the right direction to improve OSPF scaling.

IMHO, starting form a potential solution and backing up to a problem that (maybe) needs to be solved is the wrong approach.  Instead, the discussion should be around what problem(s) we want/need to solve.  Having a clear description of the requirements will allow us to figure out whether TTZ (or any other proposal) fits the bill, or not.

Thanks!

Alvaro.
