Re: [Pals] I-D Action: draft-ietf-pals-endpoint-fast-protection-00.txt

?Yimin,

I have been waiting with interest for the new version.

I will try to read it and to provide additional comments (or to acknowledge that my previous comments have been  successfully resolved) within the next few days.

Regards,

Sasha

Hi Steward, Sasha,

I'd like to thank you for your valuable comments in the previous LC for this draft. Sorry for the delay, but I've finally got to spend time addressing these comments with a new ver.

The major updates are in section 3, section 4.1 and section 6. I made some clarification for the reference models, the general relationship between this mechanism and other global/protocol/multi-homing protection mechanisms, failure handling for traffic of reverse direction, ECMP case for IP/LDP tunnels, applicability, revertive behaviors, etc. Hope that I have covered all. Please let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks,

/Yimin

PALSers,

Please note that this is not a brand new draft, it's a continuation of draft-ietf-pwe3-endpoint-fast-protection, which was updated to address WG LC comments.

Cheers,
Andy

Abstract:
   This document specifies a fast mechanism for protecting pseudowires
   against egress endpoint failures, including egress attachment circuit
   failure, egress PE failure, multi-segment PW terminating PE failure,
   and multi-segment PW switching PE failure.  Designed on the basis of
   multi-homed CE, redundant PWs, upstream label assignment and context
   specific label switching, the mechanism enables local repair to be
   performed by the router upstream adjacent to a failure.  The router
   can restore PW traffic in the order of tens of milliseconds, by
   transmitting the traffic to a protector through a pre-established
   bypass tunnel.  Therefore, the mechanism can be used to reduce
   traffic loss before global repair reacts to the failure and the
   network converges on the topology changes due to the failure.
