I’m unclear on how one would solve this — the key thing is that there are number of scenarios where it is *operator* preference rather than node capabilities that mean that we want to select a particular node for some certain application. This preference may be on a per-calculating node basis. If this is the case, then a single capability that says that a particular target node is capable of acting in a particular role is not sufficient. (Consider this scenario: - rtr-A is in country 1. - rtr-B is in country 2. - Both rtr-A and rtf-B are capable of acting as PQ nodes,and need to act as such for ‘local’ nodes (i.e., those in the same country as them). - rtr-A should never select rtr-B as a PQ. In this case, we need some tag that specifies country, as well as some tag that specifies that it is a valid PQ node. We then need specific policy on rtr-A and rtr-B to implement this policy.) It is very typical that where we have such policy implementations, then we need to configure the behaviour on a per-node basis. This is especially true where policies must consider characteristics of the topology. >> >> i found it always strange that we for TE (as an example for >> constraining paths) we have got ways to tag links, but >> not way to tag nodes - that draft aims to fix that. > > I'm not against tagging nodes as such. What worries me if we end up using node tags for signalling capabilities of node. As per the above, I do not think that this mechanism replaces any capability, it just gives an operator a means to be more granular than the binary “supported”/“not supported” view that a flag indicating capabilities does. I, of course, support the adoption of this draft as a co-author. Cheers, r.
