Jeff and Reshad,

I do not support adoption of either draft-tanmir-rtgwg-bfd-mc-lag-ip-01 or draft-tanmir-rtgwg-bfd-mc-lag-mpls-01.

The overall problem and proposed solution did not seem to have received much discussion. I was only able to find one email thread on the list, over a year ago.

Regarding the problem statement, it’s strange that there’s no normative definition or anything to MG-LAG… further, the meeting notes from IETF96 say things like:
          John Messenger: Would suggest work done in 802.1 to analyze those
          considerations with 802, it would be necessary to coordinate to work
          with them. Send a mail to IETF-IEEE802 coordination group.
          Jeff Haas: Can we sign you as a reviewer to this draft?

What is the problem again, beyond what’s already well specified in RFC 7130? Is this again a quick “solution” looking for an RFC number?

Regarding the proposed solution, the one email thread seems to have pointed out some serious issues not considered:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/rtg-bfd/OLWLCf6dn-3zxGZboTKVqUwSr6w
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/rtg-bfd/nwfLfudDdNw7PyJbpP-RVnVFMcQ
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/rtg-bfd/EuRObko0JO40_4UPB4buR0iyxcg
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/rtg-bfd/QUb5rj882TKeAAXyTof4ycq2DUg

Additionally, why the split into two drafts for this? The text of both documents overall seems forgotten, even sloppy, with many typos (“MPSL”, “Indvidual”, etc), and copy/paste text between the two documents. The complete Introduction and Problem Statement are verbatim copy/paste, and include things like:

  This document
   proposes how to overcome this problem if using IP or Multi-Protocol
   Label Switching (MPLS) data plane encapsulation.

which is not the case for either document.

Technically, using multicast here exercises a different path, and using a GAL does as well. What are we testing?

Net-net, do not support.

Thanks,

— Carlos.
