GIM>> The motivation can be seen in the following (from another draft that discusses OAM over G-ACh: In some environments, the overhead of extra IP/UDP encapsulations may be considered as overburden and make using more compact G-ACh encapsulation attractive. Will add text in the draft. CMP: Thank you very much. This is a good start, although it would be useful to add precision into which environments specifically, and the burden comparison between IP/UDP and G-ACh. GIM2>> Thank you for agreeing to this, and I've added the text in the working verion. Will work on improving the text in the meantime. CMP: Sorry if I was not clear. Like I said, this is a good start and probably necessary (but not sufficient) text. CMP: Which environments specifically? At this point, the scope and target of the work is not clear to me. That was my question. Is this for MPLS-TP P2MP? If so, the underlying seems to have stalled: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7167/referencedby/ CMP: I think these two questions should be answered: 1. What specific environments? 2. How current solutions do not solve it (i.e., what is and can we quantify the overburden)? I’m also increasingly concerned by confusing scope and definition of specifications. For example: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mirsky-mpls-p2mp-bfd-04#section-3.2 3.2. Non-IP Encapsulation of Multipoint BFD Non-IP encapsulation for multipoint BFD over p2mp MPLS LSP MUST use Generic Associated Channel (G-ACh) Label (GAL) [RFC5586] at the bottom of the label stack followed by Associated Channel Header (ACH). Channel Type field in ACH MUST be set to BFD CV [RFC6428]. First, there’s no definition for non-IP BFD in RFC 5586 — only in RFC 5885. GIM>> RFC 5586 defined the use of GAL. I think that this reference is appropriate. I agree that the second reference should be to RFC 5885, not RFC 6428. Will make the change. CMP: Thank you. However, RFC 5885 is in the context of PW VCCV — is there a missing definition in the specs for BFD over G-ACh generically? GIM2>> I think that the following quote from RFC 5586 set the relationship between Channel Type field in PW ACH and G-ACh: Channel Types for the Associated Channel Header are allocated from the IANA "PW Associated Channel Type" registry [RFC4446]. I understand that that there's one and only one registry and channel values are equally applicable to PW ACH and G-ACh. And full name of the registry now is MPLS Generalized Associated Channel (G-ACh) Types (including Pseudowire Associated Channel Types). CMP: That is correct. I was curious as to whether additional control plane is needed for this support. Second, the specification in RFC 6428 applies to MPLS Transport Profile only. NOT for MPLS, and explicitly NOT for P2MP! https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6428#section-1 This document specifies the BFD extension and behavior to satisfy the CC, proactive CV monitoring, and the RDI functional requirements for both co-routed and associated bidirectional LSPs. Supported encapsulations include Generic Associated Channel Label (GAL) / Generic Associated Channel (G-ACh), Virtual Circuit Connectivity Verification (VCCV), and UDP/IP. Procedures for unidirectional point-to-point (P2P) and point-to-multipoint (P2MP) LSPs are for further study. So, no, this does not work. RFC 6428 does not have scope for P2MP. And RFC 5586 does not specify anything for BFD. Instead, what needs to be cited (appropriately and expanded) is RFC 5885 GIM>> RFC 5586 specifies the use of GAL and G-ACh and the reference is used in this context. CMP: This is the same comment as above. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6428#section-4 RFC 5884 - BFD CC in UDP/IP/LSP RFC 5885 - BFD CC in G-ACh GIM>> I'd point that it is for p2p BFD CC, and p2mp BFD uses different from p2p BFD method to demultiplex BFD control packets. CMP: Apologies I did not understand this response. GIM2>> Apologies for sending partial explanation. P2MP BFD cannot use Your Discriminator field to demultiplex the recieved BFD control packet. BFD for Multipoint Networks defines the special procedure that requires the use of Source ID. When the encapsulation of BFD control packet does not include IP/UDP header, the Source ID can be provided as Source MEP-ID TLV in MPLS-TP BFD CV. This draft proposes the new IP Address TLV for that. Thus I have to correct myself and re-state the earlier text in the draft that the value in the Channel Type filed of G-ACh must be MPLS-TP CV (0x0023). CMP: I understood you said above that the reference to RFC6428 was incorrect. CMP: Now, just to understand the approach: CMP: Are you suggesting that the IP header is not used with BFD and instead a new TLV (of which information structure?) carries the IP address that you removed before? Seems like a musical-chairs arrangement of the data. I may very likely be missing something. Apologies in advance if that is the case. CMP: Also, is the applicability MPLS-TP? What is the normative reference for MPLS-TP P2MP? Thanks, Carlos. CMP: Thanks again for considering the comment to improve the document. Thanks, Carlos.
