RE: A new ID is available on the repository draft-caviglia-ccamp- pc-and-sc-reqs-00



pandian

i simply referred to the case where 

MP -> CP[t(i),s[i],LSP[i]] -> MP -> CP[t(j),s[j],LSP[j]]

that t(j) > t(i) represents a temporal move

that s(i) =/= s(j) represents a spatial move

LSP[i] =/= LSP[j] represents a state modification

it seems to me that (with time unit being refresh time) we've four cases, 
with each time a subcase depending on either a) LSP[i] = LSP[j] for all s. 
or b) LSP[i] =/= LSP[j] but when a change is performed for a given 
parameter describing the PSB/RSB it must be performed at each hop i.e. for 
all s.:

1. t(i) = t(j), in case s(i) = s(j) nothing changes

2. t(i) = t(j), in case s(i) =/= s(j) - spatial move - 

3. t(i) > t(j), in case s(i) = s(j) *** this is for me the only case 
covered with the subcase a) ***

4. t(i) > t(j), in case s(i) =/= s(j) - spatial move -

=> do we want sub-case 3.b ?

how to cover case 2. and 4 ?

the point is that i still have to check how this would work during the 
transit period b/w successive intervals ](n-1) R, n R], R = Refresh int. L 
= cleanup, with L >= N x R) because you must ensure that the states that 
are taken over by the MP are consistent (during the move CP->MP) before 
being capable to be released to the control plane (during the move MP -> 
CP)

Dimitri,

Could you please give some additional detail on the issue. 

The original scenario is as follows:

  MP -> CP[a] -> MP -> CP[b]

What exactly is this scenario illustrating:

a) Is it illustrating a scenario where an LSP was transferred to the CP in
three steps: first from MP to CP (i.e.., MP -> CP[a] part), secondly, at
some later point in time, the same LSP is transferred back to MP for what
ever reason (i.e., the CP[a] -> MP part) and finally at some later point 
in
time the same LSP is transferred back from MP to CP (MP -> CP[b] part).

b) or is it like what Adrian has interpreted: i.e., there are 4 LSR's
involved in this scenario. But then what exactly is the problem? Is it the
case that the LSP is partially converted to CP at two of the LSR's and MP
still owns the LSP at the other two LSRs?

c) or is it some thing else.

My interpretation of your issue was scenario (a). If that is the case, I
don't see need for extra requirements. 

On the other hand, if it is (b), I am not sure how would this be possible 
if
we do the protocol right.

If (c), please provide some additional detail on the scenario.

Thanks and best regards,

Vijay

hi adrian

CP[I] is to be complemented with I including values from the set 
{t,s[i],lsp[i]}

t      = time
s[i]   = rsvp_instance
lsp[i] = values associated to the P/RSB indexed by 5_tuple[i]

thanks,
- dimitri.

Hi,

I read Dimitri's comments as being spatial not temporal.
I.e. he drew a figure showing four LSRs.

Dimitri?

Cheers,
Adrian
