Re: TE/CT Configuration scalability

[Jim Boyle <jboyle@pdnets.com>]

See 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tewg-interas-mpls-te-req-07.txt

Section 5.1.7, this references section 4.1, of 

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tewg-diff-te-proto-07.txt

which doesn't exist.

Also

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tewg-interarea-mpls-te-req-02.txt

Section 7.11

For interarea - I don't see a problem, as it's one administrative domain.

For interas - there may need to be use of diff-serv mpls signalling, or 
"careful" coordination between domains.
