Title: RE: draft-bonica-tunneltrace-02

Mina,

 

This is a requirements specification, not an implementation. Many tools might satisfy the requirements specified by this draft.

 

This draft states a requirement to trace through many types of tunnels (e.g., MPLS, IP-in-IP). MPLS OAM does not satisfy this requirement because it applies only to MPLS LSPs.

Is this not the same tool that was presented in the OAM BOF in IETF 52?
In the BOF, the ADs were to decide on the proper location to progress work on MPLS related management/maintenance (a.k.a. OAM) tools. Have ADs made a decision? 

Also, given that the ITU-T draft recommendation Y.1711 "OAM Mechanism for MPLS Networks" has been consented, what is the rational for standardizing this tool in isolation?

Mina Azad
