Re: [Time] Fault management in SFC

[Qin Wu <[e-mail]>]

The generic requirements aspect of [e-mail]<mailto:[e-mail]> maybe more fit into
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-king-opsawg-time-multi-layer-oam-use-case-01.
draft-king-opsawg-time-multi-layer-oam-use-case-01 did sort out some high level requirements in the section 4.
But high level requirements in draft-king-opsawg-time-multi-layer-oam-use-case-01 are not specific to SFC OAM.
They also can be applicable to Overlay OAM described in section 3.3 of draft-king-opsawg-time-multi-layer-oam-use-case.

Regarding draft-jxc-sfc-fm-00, is it too rush to go to solution scope to discuss what kind of SFC specific OAM functionalities need to be support and
What SFC specific packet format looks like?

Regards!

Ö÷Ìâ: Re: [sfc] Fault management in SFC

Hi, Ramki, Yuanlong,

Thanks for bringing up these two documents! Here's my initial observations:

draft-krishnan-sfc-oam-req-framework:

  *   This document seems to be really thin in actual content.
  *   Removing the introduction, acronyms, and boiler, there's a bit over a page of very generic very high-level requirements.
  *   Although the title says "SFC OAM Requirements and Framework", I do not see text supporting a framework.

draft-jxc-sfc-fm-00:

  *   I am concerned with the creation of a new OAM Protocol in Section 3. SFC architectural documents have a goal of reusing OAM protocols, not re-inventing.
  *   It's not clear of the value of defining a TLV structure when there's no Types. In other words, why draw TLV ASCII diagrams when the requirements and gap analysis are not clear?
  *   The document says things like "BFD can also be used as a tool of proactive CC & CV in SFC.", but then goes on into drawing packets...

I agree this can be a topic for discussions in Toronto.

Thanks,

Carlos.

Hi Sam, Yuanlong, All,

We uploaded a document on the SFC OAM topic yesterday  ¨C this includes requirements besides framework. Given the importance of this topic, guess many of us were working on this in parallel. We should probably get together in Toronto to take the appropriate next steps.

Thanks,

Hi Sam and all,

I¡¯m glad to see your draft on SFC OAM framework, it is a very basic and important piece of work in my view.

We have also uploaded an I-D discussing fault management in SFC, does anyone of you have an interest in this kind of work?
The link to this I-D is:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jxc-sfc-fm-00

Your opinions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Yuanlong
