I find a) most important.
As far as I am concerned, the PCE sequence is already decoupled from the =
IRO.
I find the way that this I-D decouples the domain sequence from the path
"inconvenient".

We need to consider two "fringe" conditions.

1. A PCE serves multiple domains. In this case, if the PCC wishes to =
control the
domain path, it needs to be able to specify domain IDs as inclusions and
exclusions.

2. There may be segments of the path where per-domain signaling is =
needed. In
this case there needs to be an exchange of objects (back and forth) =
between PCEP
and RSVP-TE in order to achieve control of the domain path.

That said, in my experience, the domain paths in current deployments are =
not
long, and border routers are often known a priori.

I guess I would need to look at this in more detail. I don't see a lot =
of
difference between a TLV encoding and a subobject encoding. The main =
difference
is the codespace the T values come from. Obviously, you can't munge the =

Very good quote. Yes, this uncovers the ordering issue with the IRO. =
And,
thinking back, it was exactly the intention that the IRO did not imply =
any
ordering. Usually, I think, the IRO would contain a small number of =
nodes/links
to give hints to the computation, or to take the path through key points =
in the
network.

So, this is a bigger issue than just the domain sequence: how does the =
PCC
request an ordering of path elements?

The answer may be that it should not need to. Maybe, even, that it has =
no
meaning for it to do so.
This answer could apply equally to nodes, links, or domains.

I think this can be proved by drawing a picture. If there is the =
possibility to
route a path from domain X through domains A, B, C, and D to domain Z, =
why
should the PCC state the order that they must be traversed? Surely the =
PCE will
work out which is the better path XABCDZ or XACBDZ. If, on the other =
hand, the
only possible path is XABCDZ then the PCC does not need to worry about =
the order
of the domains it lists in the IRO because the PCE can only produce one =
result.

Now, I can hear in my head the people saying that it is more complicated =
if the
PCE has to work out the ordering of the domains, but I wonder why this =
is more
complicated than working out the ordering of nodes. And I do think that =
the PCC
should be spared the complexity of knowing or working out any sequencing =
for the
path.

Ah, my bad. As above, the original (type 1) IRO has no ordering or =
tightness of
sequencing. Thus, it is just a list of things to include.
=A0
*if* you stay with the type 2 IRO, and *if* you define ordering in the =
type 2
IRO (as currently written), then you need to consider the L bit.

Ask JP ;-)

My reading agrees with yours (and my memory) as above. The IRO is just a =
set of
objects to be included. Presenting the elements of the set in any order =
will
have the same result (plus or minus ECMP situations and peculiarities of
specific PCE implementations).

> There was also the concern of separating the roles of intra-domain =
path
> computation IRO and the resolution of PCEs in a collaborative setting. =


I'm not entirely sure I get this point. A PCE can only compute a path =
segment
that goes through its domain of responsibility - it will find all =
elements in
the IRO that it recognises as "local" and include them in the segment it =
makes,
and it will pass on all other elements to the other PCEs it cooperates =
with.
There is clearly a task for the "aggregating PCE" (which may be the head =
of the
chain, or may be the parent) to put the segments together according to =
the
complete IRO.

This seems to cut to a complexity question.
We could allow a PCC to specify as much or as little of the information =
about
the path as it likes. This is certainly fully flexible, but it seems to =
me to
masively over-complicate the protocol and the functional model. Isn't it =
the
case that the PCE is capable of selecting the *best* path. Thus, for =
example,
there is no need for the PCC to say "I want a continuous lambda for the =
segment
over domain X" because that implies the PCC knows stuff about domain X =
that the
PCE is unaware of.

That is a good question, and there are two sub-species of "unknown". The
processing collapses to the same behavior, but it is worth looking at =
them
separately.

1. I know the T value, but I can't find the identified resource
2. I don't know the T value.

In the first case, the PCE processes the IRO to include as many of the =
elements
of the IRO as possible. If the PCE is passing the request onwards, it is =
OK for
it to fail to find the resource, and it can assume that the next PCE =
might be
able to satisfy the remaining elements of the IRO. On the other hand, if =
the PCE
is making an end-to-end (or edge-to-edge, or end-to-edge) path and will =
return
the response to a PCC (rather than pass it on) then the PCE must fail if =
it
cannot satisfy the IRO (this failure behavior is in RFC 5440).

Now, I would hold that the second case can be handled identically to the =
first
case.

And ultimately, when the path segments are aggregated by a head-end PCE =
or by a
parent PCE, that PCE can check to see whether any elements of the IRO =
are still
missing.=20

There is, just one wrinkle in that case which is that the aggregating =
PCE must
understand all of the T values, or the IRO must be stripped and returned =
on the
response messages.

Dear Adrian, 

Please find the comments inline.. 


Dear WG Chairs,

Once the WG has made the decision on the adoption, we can re-poll the WG and
get consensus on the issue of encoding domain-sequence. Authors do have a
preference but we are completely open for what the WG consensus dictates and
revise the document accordingly.      

Regards,
Dhruv

[Dhruv Dhody>] We feel the decoupling allow us to handle IRO better. As PCE
is used in multiple situations, use of new type IRO for encoding domain
sequence kept the meaning of IRO but allowed us to define better rules. We
can poll again to get a rough consensus on this.

[Dhruv Dhody>] 
1. PCE serving multiple domains is easily handled in the domain-sequence
where a PCE is well aware that it can handle one or more domains in the
sequence. We can further check allowing Explicit Exclusion Route subobject
(EXRS) in the domain-sequence. 

2. In case of per-domain signaling with loose path, we see little use of
domain-sequence, this could be explicitly mentioned in the document.

[Dhruv Dhody>] We all agree that new subobjects are needed, as far the
encoding of those subobjects its important for us to keep it aligned to the
definition of other subobjects, as per general subobjects definition:   

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-------------//----------------+
   |L|    Type     |     Length    | (Subobject contents)          |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-------------//----------------+

We did follow this guidelines, where as the TLV require following encoding
which would be incompatible with subobjects encoding: 

    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |              Type             |             Length            |
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |                                                               |
   ~                             Value                             ~

[Dhruv Dhody>] Domain sequence would either be pre configured or computed by
some other means (eg. HPCE). Incase of HPCE, Parent PCE can determine the
correct order and specify the order as its usually done in ERO; incase of
admin has configured it at PCC, IMHO admin is well aware of the sequence (it
is a sequence afterall). 

I am aware of some implementation of CSPF that requires ordering esp in case
of strict hops. So I do believe in my opinion the complexity of PCE to
figure out domains on its own is high. 

Also consider P2MP where if the order is not considered the complexity of
the algorithm at PCE will only increase.

[Dhruv Dhody>] In case of BRPC where the computation starts from the PCE(n);
domain-sequence serves the important purpose of reaching domain(n); if a PCE
has to go through IRO which has intra-domain segments (node, links) plus the
information on domain-sequence, it gets bit complicated to handle. We
specify clear separation for the very same reason. We can provide suggested
handling when both IRO of type 1 and 2 exist.

[Dhruv Dhody>] Domain-sequence is made of domains(AS and area) and
*optional* Boundary information (ABR, ASBR, inter-as links). All this
information is known to the admin as thus configured at PCC or learned via
parent PCE. I don't think there is any information here that only PCC is
aware of where as PCE is not. 
Also PCC can continue to specify as little information and continue to use
the existing mechanims.

[Dhruv Dhody>] At a time when we are considering enhance error and
notification handling [draft-pouyllau-pce-enhanced-errors], its important
that our inter-domain mechanism specify errors correctly and propagate them
to the PCC. In this document we made a humble attempt to specify the scope
of the IRO and clear error handling.

Hi Dhruv.

In any case, what you propose is the expected way of progressing a WG 
document. Thank you for mentioning it: it is always better when authors 
open the discussion themselves.

Another item to be discussed is on the type of document (standard track 
/ experimental): feedback on this from the WG (especially implementers, 
if any) would also be welcome.

Thanks

Julien

Subject: [Pce] Adopting draft-dhody-pce-pcep-domain-sequence-02 as a new PCE
WG

 

Dear all,

 

We had a pretty strong support for adopting
draft-dhody-pce-pcep-domain-sequence-02 a PCE Working Group during our PCE
WG meeting but

as usual we'd like to confirm on the mailing list.

 

Could you please let us know if you are in favor/opposed to adopting
draft-dhody-pce-pcep-domain-sequence-02 as a PCE WG Document ?

 

Thanks.

 

JP and Julien.

Hi Meral.

I believe the freshly posted minutes bring an answer to you question.

Beyond the generic scope in which this I-D was presented, I feel the 
advantages and drawbacks of that proposal are off balance. On the one 
hand, focusing on a single PCE solution removes a lot from the PCE 
architecture (or requires heavy complementary mechanisms, i.e. yet 
another strong shortcoming). On the other hand, it aims at "saving a few 
crankbacks" (quoting Oscar) in the control plane, which is likely to end 
up by saving a negligible time with respect to the data plane timescale, 
especially for WDM where the label resource is scarcer (1st and longer 
use case in the draft).
Finally, knowing that an implementation could make use of the proposed 
idea based on a simple PCE policy, such an unbalanced protocol extension 
seems more than questionable...

Regards,

Julien

Hi,
   Thank you for the reply.=20
IMPO there is a need for such a functionality: if after all the PCEs proces=
sing work  we have to rely on crankback, then the question is why do we use=
 PCEs at the first place. There may also be other use cases that can benefi=
t from prereservation, and we should not only consider this from  a "cranck=
back saving" angle.

It seems that there are 2 distinct points to the discussion regarding the d=
raft:
1- Consensus that there is a problem if resources are not pre-reserved.=20
2- There are various ways to solve this problem, each with pros and cons.

I think point #1 is clear enough to anyone who faced or studied the problem=
. And if I recall correctly, the comments after Oscar's presentation (inclu=
ding those regarding the NMS-PCE relation) were all related to point #2 abo=
ve. I think these comments can all be addressed by the wg.=20

Best regards,
Meral

Hi Meral,

I agree with your analysis on Point #1. Many PCE implementations as far as =
I know use this kind of mechanism in place. Regarding comment on the use of=
 crankback, this may not be the best mechanism to depend on especially when=
 dealing with restoration situations which is one of the main applications =
for Oscar's draft.=20

On Point #2, if PCE is the best mechanism to do this function is debatable;=
 yet I think it is a good way to support this function. Again for restorati=
on situations NMS based solution may not be the best choice due to timeline=
ss factor.=20

Regards,
Young=20

Hi,

My two cents here as an individual are: optimise for the general case =
and be
very careful about optimising for the specific. The thing to avoid is =
complexity
that creeps into the general implementation in order to enhance behavior =
in a
corner case.

I am not commenting on whether this *is* a corner case. To do that I =
would have
to read the draft more carefully, but it seems to me that it is a =
question of
likely allocation congestion versus required setup speed. Having built =
and
deployed this stuff in optical equipment, I think that the existing =
signaling
mechanisms are usually enough.

However, I will note that many PCEs perform "sticky" reservations as a =
matter of
course (indeed many LSRs with head-end PCE functionality have done this =
since
the start of MPLS-TE). This has been a local policy and one that has not =
needed
protocol support. Indeed, how is a PCC to know whether reservations =
should be
sticky or not except by local policy configuration? And if so, isn't it =
easier
to configure the one or two PCEs rather than the very many PCCs?

Lastly, when looking at sticky reservations, and assuming there is an =
intent to
arrive at a "perfect" non-crankback situation, we would have to address
synchronisation across multiple PCEs.

Cheers,
Adrian

   This memo provides application-specific requirements for the Path
   Computation Element communication Protocol (PCEP) for the support of
   Wavelength Switched Optical Networks (WSON). Lightpath provisioning
   in WSONs requires a routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) process.
   From a path computation perspective, wavelength assignment is the
   process of determining which wavelength can be used on each hop of a
   path and forms an additional routing constraint to optical light
   path computation. Requirements for Optical impairments will be
   addressed in a separate document.
