Hi Fernando,

I think there are 3 parts to:
dynamically establishing, modifying and releasing tunnels

1. A mechanism for a muxer to discover a de-muxer (and vice versa).
2. A mechanism to elect an optimal muxer and a de-muxer when there 
   are more than one muxer/de-muxer for a flow.
3. A mechanism to setup/release a tunnel b/w a muxer and a de-muxer.

#1 needs to be specified.
#2 can be added later.
#3 many not require much specification.

Muthu

|Hi all,
|
|        I also agree with the idea of including the mux-demux signaling within
|the draft A (as Dan said, they are capabilities negotiation). This draft
|should be able to get two boxes with TCMTF fully working between them.
|Under my point of view this includes the definition of the capabilities in
|each node and the negotiation of that capabilities.
|        On the other hand,  the selection of flows to be potentially TCMTFed
|could be something undefined at the beginning (it may be statically
|configured for example), but it is something that will NEED to be defined
|to be dynamically enforced at the mux from a higher entity (policy
|manager). That functionality would be addressed to a different draft in
|the future, re-chartering the WG.
|        Regarding the "dynamically establishing, modifying and releasing tunnels"
|I also agree with Muthu that it is something that can be added later.
