I agree,

and this is also the major change in the latest version of the framework.

IMO it is correct to say that the MDSC is a functionality of the Orchestrator and that the PNC is a functionality of the domain T-SDN controller, hence speaking about Orchestration and T-SDN is not inappropriate.

Subject: RE: [Teas] "Hierarchical T-SDN Controller"

I have the impression that the TEAS YANG models may be implemented by a (TE) function/component/entity/… inside what others in industry may call (T-SDN) domain controller or (T-SDN) hierarchical controller. Orchestrator or coordinator may also work for the latter.

Specifically, I find it confusing to use the term “controller” for a (TE) function/component/entity/… *inside* of what may be called a domain controller, e.g., outside the IETF.

Anyway, I have no particular opinion on whether to use “T-SDN” or another term as long as those terms are not too far away from what somebody outside the IETF would typically enter into a search engine.

We need to be careful with the word “transport”. In some contexts it refers to pure transport technologies (e.g. OTN, WDM) and does not include other upper layer TE technologies (e.g. MPLS-TE and SR-TE), in other contexts it includes also the latter.
I’m more than happy to use the term transport SDN controller provided we’re all on the same page (which should be the second).

Subject: [Teas] "Hierarchical T-SDN Controller"

In the (useful) I-D draft-bryskin-te-topo-and-tunnel-modeling-00, Section 1.9. “Multi-Domain Transport Service Coordination” uses the following wording:

   A client of multiple TE network domains may need to
   orchestrate/coordinate its transport service setup/manipulation
   across some or all the domains. One example of such a client is a
   Hierarchical T-SDN Controller, HC, managing a connected multi-domain
   transport network where each of the domains is controlled by a
   separate Domain T-SDN Controller, DC.

Outside the IETF, I have the impression that this terminology is quite common when discussing TEAS YANG models. I wonder whether we could use this terminology more frequently inside in TEAS.
