Re: I-D ACTION:draft-chen-ccamp-ospf-interas-te-extension-01.txt



Hmmm.

Question: Does anyone use multi-access TE links between ASes?

If so, we should address them (probably the same way that we address them within an AS/area - that is by defining a separate link type). But if no-one uses them, then we should leave that definition until there is a need.

I see that section 3.2 of Mach's I-D is very explicit that the new link type is p2p, so that is good.

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi vijay,

First, thanks for your questions.

So far this version doesn't mention inter-as multi-access links, an alternative method, as you said, of describing this kind of links is to treat them as multiple P2P links. I will supplement this description
in the future revised version.

Best regards,

Mach

The draft does not seem to address multi-access links between ASes.
Should the inter-AS link only be a point to point link or you are trying
to model multi-access links as multiple P2P links ( in which case B.W
calculations etc would not be straightforward)

Vijay

Hi,

We have just submitted the second revision of our
I-D,draft-chen-ccamp-
ospf-interas-te-extensions.

The problem we are trying to solve is how a PCE or entry-point ASBR
can
select the exit-point ASBR for a TE LSP when it knows (from the ERO)
the
downstream AS or the downstream ASBR. We believe that IGP needs to
flood
the inter-AS TE links together with additional information about the
neighboring AS and ASBR. The problem arises for both the pd-path and
brpc
computation methods.

We would welcome your input on our problem statement and our proposed
solution.

Best regards,

Mach & Renhai
