[OSPF] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-smirnov-ospf-xaf-te-01.txt

All,

The gist of the draft is to allow a single OSPF(v3) instance to signal LSP endpoints for both IPv4 and IPv6 and, thus, consolidate the TE routing domain. Is there interest in considering this work?

I would support it since it seems fairly straightforward (unless my reading has missed something).

Thanks,
Acee

  Hello,
  authors of this draft would like to solicit feedback. This draft was presented to WG in London and draft was updated couple of days ago to rectify notes received after the presentation.
  The draft proposes technique how IPv6 routes should be calculated over MPLS TE signaled by OSPFv2.

  The draft discusses why simple solution to the problem not requiring standardization works most of the time but if it fails it may fail with very big impact to the network and thus unacceptable. But presentation delivered during the meeting discussed this in pictures and in greater length, so if after reading the draft you would still not be convinced simple solution is not good enough I encourage you to review slide deck presented during the meeting.

Abstract:
  When using Traffic Engineering (TE) in a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 network
  the Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) TE Label Switched Paths
  (LSP) infrastructure may be duplicated, even if the destination IPv4
  and IPv6 addresses belong to the same remote router.  In order to
  achieve an integrated MPLS TE LSP infrastructure, OSPF routes must be
  computed over MPLS TE tunnels created using information propagated in
  another OSPF instance.  This is solved by advertising cross-address
  family (X-AF) OSPF TE information.

  This document describes an update to RFC5786 that allows for the easy
  identification of a router's local X-AF IP addresses.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org<http://tools.ietf.org>.
