Adrian Farrel is keen to find out what the WG intentions are regarding =
the "other" WG encoding drafts. Just to remind everyone, the original =
idea was to have the baseline encoding and a set of 3 experimental =
encodings that built on it. Then Bob got RFC6040 published and we =
decided to push 3-in-1 encoding as the main standard. This left the =
other experimental encodings in limbo. They are:

draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-01 =
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-01>

draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-01 =
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-01>

These are both cited in the encoding comparison draft which poses some =
potential problems. Firstly we are not meant to refer to IDs in RFCs, =
secondly these have both long expired so will eventually disappear from =
any archives, thirdly I believe Michael may still want to use PSDM =
experimentally?

There would seem to be 3 possible courses of action:

1) We ask for these to be published as historical RFCs so they can be =
referenced from encoding comparison
2) we ask for these to be published as experimental schemes so they can =
be referenced and can be used
3) we remove all reference from the encoding comparison

OPtion 1 is probably the easiest as (hopefully) they would not need too =
much updating. Option 2 requires more work on the drafts (in light of =
the fact we are obsolete RFC5696 which they both depend on), but would =
at least hold the door open to future work. Option 3 partially defeats =
the point of the encoding comparison document.=20

I have a very slight preference for option 1, but what do other people =
think?=20

Hi Toby,

I am also in favor of option 1.

Just a correction, lots of RFCs refer to internet drafts.

I don't think Adrian's comment was one about the mechanics of references, b=
ut what the status is of these other encodings.
So the solution is simple, the comparison doc spells out (more) clearly tha=
t they were ones we thought about, recorded here for posterity, but are now=
 no longer being pursued - in favour of 3-in-1

<< It appears that there are a number of alternative encoding being=20
proposed as documented in this I-D, draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding,=20
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding, etc., and as discussed in=20
draft-ietf-pcn-encoding-comparison. It isn't clear to me whether these
encodings are being proposed to co-exist, to be used by different=20
operators depending on specific environments, or whether they are being
floated to see which one gets more market-place support.>>

Hi Phil,

Do you mean that you are rather against publishing the other encodings draf=
ts as historical RFCs.

In a previous email I have mentioned that Option 1 (publish encodings draft=
s as historical RFCs) proposed by Toby is probably the best choice.

However, I will not strongly insist on this option. I am also fine if we wi=
ll not publish these encodings drafts as historical RFCs. The encoding comp=
arison draft provides then the historical record of what these other encodi=
ngs are (with the reference to the current I-Ds) like and the reasons pro/a=
nti them.

Best regards,
Georgios

Yes - I think the encoding comparison draft provides a good historical reco=
rd of the various encodings that we thought of and their pros/cons.
Publishing the encodings as historical RFCs doesn't seem to me to add much =
value, and creates extra work for WG /iesg /ietf reviewers

Hi,

It appears to me the drafts have already expired.
You can refer to expired drafts in an Informational document, using an
approach similar to this:

   The XYZ encoding was proposed in a draft document submitted to the PCN
WG in <October
   2006>. The PCN WG chose to not advance this draft.


This way there is no reference to the expired draft, and the intentions to
not carry the drafts forward is easy to see.

Now, as to whether publishing them as historical is the right way:
How much more detail is in the drafts that will be lost if we just let
them expire?
Is it important to the industry to keep a record of that historical
detail, or just a summary of the ideas in those drafts and why they didn't
work.
I can understand that academically, it might be nice to have these
published as historical records, but I tend to agree that having them
published as RFCs could confuse people who are not really knowledgeable
about IETF practice and the difference in types of RFCs.
If the summary seems adequate, then I recommend letting the drafts
disappear.
You should make sure all your documents do not contain any references to
those drafts.

Hi,

I notice the status in the document has been changed from Informational to
Experimental, but in the datatracker it is still Informational.
Can somebody point me to the discussion thread for this change to
Experimental?

   The objective of Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) is to protect the
   quality of service (QoS) of inelastic flows within a Diffserv domain.
   On every link in the PCN domain, the overall rate of the PCN-traffic
   is metered, and PCN-packets are appropriately marked when certain
   configured rates are exceeded.  Egress nodes provide decision points
   with information about the PCN-marks of PCN-packets which allows them
   to take decisions about whether to admit or block a new flow request,
   and to terminate some already admitted flows during serious pre-
   congestion.

   The PCN Working Group explored a number of approaches for encoding
   this pre-congestion information into the IP header.  This document
   provides details of all those approaches along with an explanation of
   the constraints that had to be met by any solution.

 Georgios: For clarity reasons, I am copying the text related to Option 1 a=
nd Option 3, described in Section 3.2.3.
 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
 1. Each Diffserv class using PCN uses a different set of DSCPs.
      Therefore, if there are M DSCPs using PCN and PCN encoding uses N=20
      different DSCPs, N*M DSCPs are needed. This solution may work well
      in IP networks. However, when PCN is applied to MPLS networks or=20
     other layers restricted to 8 QoS classes and codepoints, this=20
      solution fails due to the extreme shortage of available DSCPs.
=20
   3. PCN-traffic is tunneled across the PCN-domain. The pipe tunneling=20
      model is applied and so the original DSCP is restored after
      decapsulation. However, tunneling across a PCN domain adds an=20
      additional IP header and reduces the maximum transfer unit (MTU)=20
      from the perspective of the user. GRE, MPLS, or Ethernet using=20
      Pseudo-Wires are potential solutions that scale well also in
     backbone networks.
Option (1) seems to be the most viable and efficient solution.=20
Regarding your observation that if MPLS is in scope, then surely option (1)=
 is impractical, you are right.=20
I think that we should emphasize that both Option (1) and Option (3) are vi=
able, but both of them have drawbacks.=20
So we would like to change the conclusion from:
=20
 Change from:
 "Option (1) seems to be the most viable and efficient solution. "
=20
 INTO:
The most appropriate option depends on the specific circumstances an operat=
or faces.=20
* Option 1 is most suitable unless there is a shortage of available DSCPs.
* Option 3 is suitable where the reduction of MTU is not liable to cause is=
sues.

> about applicability only to IP.
Georgios: In our opinion, see also reply of Bob Briscoe to this DISCUSS, th=
is is a simple misreading of the text at the end of the  Intro to draft-pcn=
-3-in-1-encoding (below).=20
This merely says the normative parts of the 3-in-1 doc only concern encodin=
g PCN in v4 &=20
v6. It doesn't say PCN as a whole only concerns v4 & v6. Definitely not.
=20
 " This document only concerns the PCN wire protocol encoding for IP
 headers, whether IPv4 or IPv6. It makes no changes or
 recommendations concerning algorithms for congestion marking or
 congestion response. Other documents will define the PCN wire
 protocol for other header types. Appendix C discusses a possible
 mapping between IP and MPLS.
"
 (BTW, PCN marking has been implemented in hardware for IP and MPLS.)
=20
So, PCN is also open for use with other header types than IPv4 and IPv6.=20

Georgios: We agree that the text in Section 4.5 is confusing, we would like=
 to change the text from:
Change from:
"Primarily, it has been decided to take forward the baseline encoding,=20
described in Section 4.1 and defined in RFC5696. Subsequently, it has=20
been decided to take forward the 3-in-1 encoding, which is described=20
in Section 4.2 and defined in [I-D.ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding]; as an=20
RFC it would obsolete the baseline encoding."
INTO:
=20
"The baseline encoding described in section 4.1 was published as a draft In=
ternet Standard [RFC5696].=20
The intention was to allow for experimental encodings to build upon this ba=
seline.=20
However, following the publication of [RFC6040], the WG decided to change a=
pproach and instead standardise only=20
one encoding (the 3-in-1 encoding described in 4.2 [draft-pcn-3-in-1]). Rat=
her than defining the 3-in-1 encoding as a=20
standards track extension to the existing baseline encoding [RFC5696], it w=

a new standards track document that obsoletes [RFC5696]."

=20
 Georgios: This section refers to these documents to show the alternative e=
ncodings that have been taken into account by the PCN WG.=20
Currently, there is no consensus in the PCN WG on the issue of whether the =
two following encodings drafts should be=20
published as historical RFCs or be abandoned.
 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-01
 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-01

For the time being we reused the references to the expired I-Ds.

Georgios: we would like to replace the text in Section 5, with the followin=
g text:
=20
"5.  Conclusion
This document summarises the PCN Working Group's exploration of a number of=
 approaches for encoding pre-congestion information into the IP header. It =
is presented as an informational archive. It provides details of all those =
approaches along with an explanation of the constraints that have to be met=
.=20
The Working Group has concluded that the "3-in-1" encoding should be publis=
hed as a standards-track RFC that obsoletes the encoding specified in [RFC5=
696].
The reasoning is as follows. During the early life of the working group, we=
 decided on an approach of a standardised "baseline encoding" [RFC5696] plu=
s a series of experimental encodings that would all build on the baseline e=
ncoding and each of which would be useful in specific circumstances. Howeve=
r, after the tunnelling of ECN was standardized in [RFC6040], the PCN WG de=
cided on a different approach - to recommend just one encoding, the "3-in-1=
 encoding". Although in theory "3-in-1" could be specified as a standards-t=
rack extension to the "baseline" encoding, the WG decided that it would be =
cleaner to obsolete RFC5696 and specify "3-in-1" encoding in a new stand-al=
one RFC."=20

Georgios: We would like to change from:
"This PCN information has to be encoded into the IP header. This
requires at least three different codepoints for not-marked PCN
traffic, PCN traffic re-marked by the threshold-marker,
and PCN traffic re-marked by the excess-traffic-marker."

"This PCN information has to be encoded into the IP header. This requires a=

=20
 Georgios:
Agree that the current text in the introductory part of Section 3 is not cl=
ear.
We would like to change the text from:
=20
 "The Differentiated Services (DS) field is chosen for the encoding of
 PCN marks.  This section briefly reviews the DS field and the
 constraints imposed by its reuse are summarized."
=20
 INTO:
=20
 "The PCN WG decided to use the DS field (i.e., combination of the DSCP and=
 ECN field) for the encoding of the PCN Marks, see [RFC5696].=20

=20
Georgios: Agree, we list: [RFC0793], [RFC2474], [RFC3168], [RFC4774] as nor=
mative references. In order to do that we will create a new subsection in S=

Georgios: Agree, in ordert to solve this we will include the following text=
 in Section 3.3.3.4:
"Certain combinations of inner and outer ECN fields cannot result from any =
transition in any current or previous ECN tunneling
specification.  These currently unused (CU) combinations are indicated in F=

   The objective of Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) is to protect the
   quality of service (QoS) of inelastic flows within a Diffserv domain.
   On every link in the PCN domain, the overall rate of the PCN-traffic
   is metered, and PCN-packets are appropriately marked when certain
   configured rates are exceeded.  Egress nodes provide decision points
   with information about the PCN-marks of PCN-packets which allows them
   to take decisions about whether to admit or block a new flow request,
   and to terminate some already admitted flows during serious pre-
   congestion.

   The PCN Working Group explored a number of approaches for encoding
   this pre-congestion information into the IP header.  This document
   provides details of all those approaches along with an explanation of
   the constraints that had to be met by any solution.

Hi all,

=20

We have uploaded an Internet-Draft called "Pre-congestion notification =
in mobile networks" - =
http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-jobert-tsvwg-pre-congest-notif-mobile-00.pdf=


=20

Abstract

=20

   Mobile networks may be divided into two main segments: the radio

   segment, and the wireline segment. This document highlights that the

   algorithms leading to pre-congestion notification (e.g. ECN marking)

   are usually significantly different for these two segments, and not

   defined or documented in general over the radio segment. It also

   explains that using ECN bits leads to having a unique signal for

   notifying a pre-congestion related to two separate segments with

   very different notification algorithms. Some consequences are

   questioned, as well as the potential benefits of being able to

   identify where the congestion comes from. This document finally

   discusses the possibility to take into account the radio conditions

   of the terminals when counting the volume of congestion over the

   radio segment.

=20

It has been posted in TSVWG, but the chairs indicated some possible =
interest from PCN.

We are interested by review and comments.

=20

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Hi,

Every IESG is different, and some of the current, continuing members are
particular about Experimental status. 

I fully expect you will be asked to make changes to the document to describe
in the Introduction what the experiment is, who should participate in the
experiment, how long should the experiment run, what are the evaluation
criteria, and what is the expected follow-up to such an experiment?

Since we plan to close PCN after these docs get through, we cannot plan on
specific follow-up. Here is some suggested text for the last part:
"After the experiment, the IETF community might choose to advance these from
Experimental to standards-track, by creating a new PCN-related WG, having
the work done in another WG such as TSVWG, or advancing the docs as
AD-sponsored. That will be a decision that will need to be made by the
community after the experiment concludes." 

Please put together a few paragraphs to introduce the experiment.
If you provide the new text to me before the IESG telechat, I can handle
this as a note to the RFC Editor.

It was Joel Halpern's comment, but I see rev iewing my response that 
this didn't go to the list. Can I confirm that Experimental is agreeable 
to the WG?

Hi all,

Please note that draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt has just been posted.
The following modifications have been done, see Section 4 (introductory tex=
t) and section 4.1:

o) The CLE field has been removed from the PCN object format.

o) two new CL based PCN objects have been defined that can be used to carry=
 the number of flow identifiers for individual flows within an ingress-egre=
ss-aggregate that have recently experienced  excess-marking, see also draft=
-ietf-pcn-signaling-requirements-08:

      o) Controlled (CL) PCN CL Flow IDs object, IPv4 addresses are used:=20
          Class =3D PCN
          C-Type =3D RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs

       o) Controlled (CL) PCN CL Flow IDs object, IPv6 addresses are used:=
=20
            Class =3D PCN
             C-Type =3D RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs

The main open issue, see also section 4 (introductory text)  that is relate=
d to one of the above listed modifications and needs to be discussed by the=
 tsvwg WG is the following:

   There are at least two possible options of carrying the=20
   PCN objects of C-Type: RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs or=20
   RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs:
     o) Option 1: The PCN objects of C-Type:=20
        RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs or=20
        RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs MUST be carried by the=20
        aggregated Resv message together with the other PCN object=20
        C-Types. The advantage of this object is that no additional=20
        message needs to be supported by this signaling protocol. The=20
        drawback of this option is that the PCN objects of C-Type: RSVP-
        AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs or RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs=20
        can become larger than the maximum transmission unit (MTU) along=20
        a path to the Aggregator.

     o) Option 2: The PCN objects of C-Type:    =20
        RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs or=20
        RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs MUST be carried by NOTIFY=20
        messages, see [RFC3473]. In particular, the NOTIFY=20
        <flow descriptor list> field could carry the flow IDs. The=20
        advantage of this option is that the total list of the flow IDs=20
        that need to be sent to the Aggregator can be divided in smaller=20
        sets. Each of these sets can be then carried by one NOTIFY=20
        message. The number of flow IDs that are included in such a set=20
        MUST be such that the length of any NOTIFY message will not=20
        become larger than the maximum transmission unit (MTU) along a=20
        path to the Aggregator. The main disadvantage is the signaling=20
        protocol needs to use an additional message type. If this option=20
        is chosen then the format of the PCN objects of=20
        C-Type: RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv4-PCN-CL-FLIDs or=20
        RSVP-AGGREGATE-IPv6-PCN-CL-FLIDs may need modifications. The=20
        same holds for the procedures on handling the NOTIFY message by=20
        the Interior nodes and by the Aggregator.

Best regards,
Georgios

The CL edge behaviour draft allows implementations to keep the number of 
flow identifiers down to a reasonable size. I would therefore suggest no 
new message is needed to carry them.

Steve,

I got the impression most people (including you) were converging on 
not publishing psdm & 3-state as historical RFCs (unnec hassle for 
authors, IESG, GEN-ART etc). But then your latest message below seems 
to imply it is decided that we will.

We can publish as historical if people want (personally I've already 
said I don't see the need). However, it would be useful to have a 
decision whether to go ahead by early tomorrow to give us a fighting chance.

Although it did seem like the balance was towards non-publication I think 
this should be explicitly decided by the WG. I have a marginal preference 
for publication because I think it wouldn't take all that much work.

I did wonder at one stage whether the two could be combined into a single 
historical RFC, but that didn't seem workable. I also wondered if there 
could be more about them in the encoding comparison, but that would make it 
a less balanced document.

However we do seem to be getting fundamentally contradictory guidance 
regarding how to reference these drafts (and not to reference them would be 
wrong/dishonest in my opinion).

It's a WG decision, not the chairs, but it is pointless to discuss it if
no-one will volunteer to do the work.

Given the looming deadline, I suggest that if anyone wants to see them
published and is willing to do the work, they go ahead and refresh the
drafts.  The WG can finalize the decision this week.  I have to say
that, by my reading of the list, there is no rough consensus in either
direction.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies. This draft is a work item of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notific=
ation Working Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Encoding 3 PCN-States in the IP header using a single DS=
CP
	Author(s)       : Bob Briscoe
                          Toby Moncaster
                          Michael Menth
	Filename        : draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-09.txt
	Pages           : 26
	Date            : 2012-03-11

   The objective of Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) is to protect the
   quality of service (QoS) of inelastic flows within a Diffserv domain.
   The overall rate of the PCN-traffic is metered on every link in the
   PCN domain, and PCN-packets are appropriately marked when certain
   configured rates are exceeded.  Egress nodes pass information about
   these PCN-marks to decision points which then decide whether to admit
   or block new flow requests or to terminate some already-admitted
   flows during serious pre-congestion.

   This document specifies how PCN-marks are to be encoded into the IP
   header by re-using the Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN)
   codepoints within a PCN-domain.  The PCN wire protocol for non-IP
   protocol headers will need to be defined elsewhere.  Nonetheless,
   this document clarifies the PCN encoding for MPLS in an informational
   Appendix.  The encoding for IP provides for up to three different PCN
   marking states using a single DSCP: Not-marked (NM), Threshold-marked
   (ThM) and Excess-traffic-marked (ETM).  Hence, it is called the
   3-in-1 PCN encoding.  This document obsoletes RFC5696.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

PCN folks,

Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being the most 
comprehensive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 
3-in-1 encoding.

As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical changes were 
needed in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly what 
an implementer has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with 
PCN, and what defaults should be set to.

In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any 
flow-state) that clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the 
recommended choice of 3 is:

       *  re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is not PCN-compatible;

        [...] 
In the
       absence of any operator-specific configuration for this case, by
       default an implementation SHOULD re-mark the DSCP to zero.

Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) has been 
re-written, incorporating material that was previously repeated in 
both edge-behaviours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour 
authors, of course). Altho it largely does the same thing 
technically, it is written to cover the complete range of possible 
scenarios, and it now gives defaults and recommended choices. I don't 
think it's controversial, but shout if it is.
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-09#section-5.1>



Bob

PS. Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:

       *  Added note about fail-safe to protect other traffic in the
          event of tunnel misconfiguration.

       *  Changed section heading to be about applicability of
          environments to the encoding, rather than the encoding to the
          environments.

       *  Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress Node Behaviour section.

       *  Changed PCN interior node to PCN-node where the term was
          intended to include all PCN-nodes.

       *  Clarified status of ECN/PCN co-existence appendix.  Removed
          inconsistent assertion in this appendix that an admission-

PCN folks,<br><br>
Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being the most
comprehensive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-in-1
encoding.<br><br>
As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical changes were
needed in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly what an
implementer has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with PCN,
and what defaults should be set to.<br><br>
In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any flow-state)
that clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommended choice
of 3 is:<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is
not PCN-compatible;<br><br>
<pre>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
[...]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In the
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; absence of any operator-specific
configuration for this case, by
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
the DSCP to zero.

</pre>Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) has been
re-written, incorporating material that was previously repeated in both
edge-behaviours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of
course). Altho it largely does the same thing technically, it is written
to cover the complete range of possible scenarios, and it now gives
defaults and recommended choices. I don't think it's controversial, but
shout if it is.<br>

Bob<br><br>
PS.  Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; Added note about fail-safe to
protect other traffic in the<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; event of tunnel
misconfiguration.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; Changed section heading to be
about applicability of<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; environments to the
encoding, rather than the encoding to the<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; environments.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress
Node Behaviour section.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; Changed PCN interior node to
PCN-node where the term was<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; intended to include all
PCN-nodes.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; Clarified status of ECN/PCN
co-existence appendix.&nbsp; Removed<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; inconsistent assertion
in this appendix that an admission-<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; control DSCP alone can
indicate that arriving traffic is PCN-<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; traffic.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; A few clarifying editorial
amendments and updated refs.<br><br>

Hi David,

Do we need to update anything else on encoding comparison draft before post=
ing deadline of today?
In our opinion we worked out all DISCUSSes and comments, except the format =
of some cross-references.

Best regards,
Georgios=

   Pre-congestion notification (PCN) is a link-specific and load-
   dependent packet re-marking mechanism and provides in Differentiated
   Services networks feedback to egress nodes about load conditions
   within the domain.  It is used to support admission control and flow
   termination decision in a simple way.  This document proposes how PCN
   marks can be encoded into the IP header for packet-specific dual
   marking (PSDM).  PSDM encoding provides three different codepoints:
   not-ETM, not-ThM, and PM.  Excess-traffic-marking may re-mark not-
   ETM-packets to PM and threshold-marking may re-mark not-ThM-packets
   to PM.

   Pre-congestion notification (PCN) is a mechanism designed to protect
   the Quality of Service of inelastic flows within a controlled domain.
   It does this by marking packets when traffic load on a link is
   approaching or has exceeded a threshold below the physical link rate.
   This experimental encoding scheme specifies how three encoding states
   can be carried in the IP header using a combination of two DSCPs and
   the ECN bits.  The Basic scheme only allows for three encoding
   states.  The Full scheme provides 6 states, enough for limited end-
   to-end support for ECN as well.

As you can all see I have posted updates for this draft and PSDM. The WG can=
 decide whether to go ahead with publishing these as historical or not.

Hi,

I hope I parsed your  double negatives appropriately.
I was suggesting that having a normative reference to an expired draft
could be problematic.

I see that one of the drafts was revised as Historic .
Is the WG decision to publish these as Historic or let them disappear?
The IESG needs to know.

I thought RFCs were re-categorized as Historic?  I didn't realize that
an RFC could be published as Historic right off the bat.

I'm initiating a 3-day WGLC to determine whether to publish
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt
as Informational/Historic RFCs (terminating EOB Thursday 3/15).
  
Please send comments to the list ASAP.

I received a few suggestions the first time I posted this.  I believe
that all of the necessary drafts have been revised to resolve IESG
comments, so we can suppose that they will move forward, but we should
set aside some discussion time in case there are still unresolved
comments.  The WG needs to decide how to proceed with
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt, but that needs to happen prior
to the meeting.

Please send additional suggestions for the meeting agenda ASAP.  I will
publish a draft agenda on Wednesday.

While I clearly prefer egress node based pcn policy decisions, not
requiring any signaled feedback to policy decision points, I don't
object to have both drafts as historic RFCs. But I don't want to
work on them.

Ruediger

I thought RFCs were re-categorized as Historic?  I didn't realize that
an RFC could be published as Historic right off the bat.

I'm initiating a 3-day WGLC to determine whether to publish
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt
as Informational/Historic RFCs (terminating EOB Thursday 3/15).

Please send comments to the list ASAP.

I guess I have to stop equivocating on this=85

I am actually in favour of publishing these as historical (with the =
caveat that they are only worth expending a few man-hours effort on).

Like Steve I hadn't realised that could be done, but as it seems fairly =
normal procedure it seems like the right option for these drafts. I am =
also prepared to put a small amount of effort into the process. My hope =
would be that historical documents need a good deal less scrutiny and =
hence these can be published more or less as they are in the new -02 =
versions I posted last night.

Steven,

Can I have 10mins on pcn-3-in-1-encoding ?

The -09 rev of pcn-3-in-1-encoding included a significant amount of 
stuff about handling e2e ECN (both for PCN and non-PCN packets), in 
response to the IESG's (Adrian Farrel's) very valid point that we had 
only described the spec wrt operator config, not implementation. 
We've also defined defaults at his request.

I'd like to present the new rules just to check the WG is happy with 
the outcome. I think the IESG process is continuing whether or not 
the WG is happy, but if someone points out a flaw I'm sure we can 
make further changes.

I've gone thru all the combinations of requirements I can think of, 
and I'm v happy now that we have a nice workable solution for ECN + 
PCN. But I know ECN has been a controversial area in the past, so 
it's worth getting the perspective of others.


Bob

I think that the encoding-comparison draft is sufficient and that they don'=
t need to be published as historical rfcs. Mainly because of the extra effo=
rt involved with no benefit in my view.=20

If it is decided there is consensus and effort to progress these 2 docs as =
historical, I suggest:

- waiting for 3-in-1 to get to RFC status or at least into rfc editor, in c=
ase issues emerge during that approval which need to be reflected back into=
 these two docs. (For instance, Bob recently sent an email - not sure if th=
at would imply changes to these two docs as well.)=20
- please make sure key parts (abstract, intro, conclusion) make it clear th=
at this is a document for archive purposes and the actual encoding to use i=
s in rfcxxxx potential confusion


Re:
> I was suggesting that having a normative reference to an expired draft
> could be problematic.
I think this can be skirted round. In the encoding comparison, say somethin=
g like "PSDN encoding was proposed in [ref]"
Then it can be an Informational reference - since it's informing the reader=
 where it was proposed, whereas the actual definition is in the encoding co=
mparison doc.

I thought RFCs were re-categorized as Historic?  I didn't realize that
an RFC could be published as Historic right off the bat.

I'm initiating a 3-day WGLC to determine whether to publish
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt
as Informational/Historic RFCs (terminating EOB Thursday 3/15).

Hi,

We've had a number of things go Historic since I've been on IESG.
IIRC, and I may not, we decided docs could be published directly to
Historic.
But I am not a process geek; I hate discussions of whether a doc must go
to Informational and then be declared historic, or simply gets published
as historic right off the bat.
If you say it is historic, then the IESG process geeks can decide whether
it must be published as informational first.
The thing is, the IESG can make that change - without another IETF LC -
and then declare it historic, so it doesn't matter much in my eyes.
However, putting historic into the document header seriously addresses
Adrian's concern that the future of these alternate docs is unclear.

As a contributor, I'm good with a WG decision to go Historic.


Chairs, is that the WG consensus?
We need an answer to this so we can clear Adrian's discuss and get
encoding-comparison into the RFC Editor's Q.
Having an answer before ietf83 is definitely desirable, and earlier is
preferable.

Thanks,
--

I thought RFCs were re-categorized as Historic?  I didn't realize that
an RFC could be published as Historic right off the bat.

I'm initiating a 3-day WGLC to determine whether to publish
draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt
as Informational/Historic RFCs (terminating EOB Thursday 3/15).

Please send comments to the list ASAP.

// Steve

Hi,

The IESG has a few questions.

1) Since the edge behaviors have now been moved to Experimental, and
3-in-1 deals with the edge behaviors, should 3-in-1 also be Experimental?

2) (for additional information to help IESG understand) Has 3-in-1 been
implemented? Has it been used in real-world environments? Should this be
published as Experimental until it is clear it works?


3) if RFC5696 has become not recommended, should it be declared historic,
possibly independent of the status of the 3-in-1 draft?

Couple of quick comments:

On 1)
I seem to remember that when RFC5696 was published, there was discussion ab=
out the status of this & it was agreed it should be standards track. Since =
3-in-1 replaces 5696, it too should be standards track.

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-encoding-comparison-09#section-5 =
explains how we got to 3-in-1 replacing 5696.=20

Incidentally, the edge behaviours moved from Informational to Experimental =
(not from standards track to experimental), so I don't see why this should =
prompt any change in status of 3-in-1.

On 3)
3-in-1 obsoletes rfc5696. If the normal practice is to declare obsoleted rf=
cs historic, then suggest we do that; if not, then don't.
If the 3-in-1 draft is not approved then rfc5696 is not obsolete.
If the 3-in-1 draft is experimental then rfc5696 is not obsolete - i think =
the 3-in-1 draft needs to be re-written as an extension of the baseline (an=
d incidentally this is very probably non-trivial to write & non-trivial for=
 the reader to understand)

Best wishes

Hi,

The IESG has a few questions.

1) Since the edge behaviors have now been moved to Experimental, and
3-in-1 deals with the edge behaviors, should 3-in-1 also be Experimental?

2) (for additional information to help IESG understand) Has 3-in-1 been
implemented? Has it been used in real-world environments? Should this be
published as Experimental until it is clear it works?


3) if RFC5696 has become not recommended, should it be declared historic,
possibly independent of the status of the 3-in-1 draft?

Before I say anything else can I challenge your sentence: 3-in-1 does =

With that in mind I STRONGLY feel 3-in-1 should remain as standards =

believe) is to establish which is best (and as Phil says, they were =
intended to be informational).

so we have to require anyone running any form of PCN to NOT follow a =
current standard, and instead implement another experiment - messy at =

In what way could it NOT work? This isn't all that difficult=85 The only =
issues are what happens when an implementor fails to correctly implement =
the standard. Frankly, that is out of the remit of the IETF - we have =

Its status HAS to depend on that of the 3-in-1. If it is to become =
historic (as opposed to obsolete) then, in the absence of 3-in-1 being a =
standard we end up with PCN having NO encoding (given experimental =
carries no weight).=20

I applaud the IESG trying to control the number of RFCs in the standards =

working groups.

Hi Toby,

Being one of the IESG folks that asked the question, I have a couple of 
followup questions/comments. Other IESG members may^h^h^h almost 
certainly do have different thoughts than I :-) , but this discussion 
helps my thinking a lot.

On 3/15/12 12:39 PM, Toby Moncaster wrote:

OK, this was an important point that I didn't understand, and I do think 
it needs a mention in the two experimental documents: You are saying 
that the experiment is about picking which of the two should be used. 
That's not clear in those two documents now, and a little text would 
help greatly. That cleanly separates the issue of the status of the 
3-in-1 document from the other two.

> a) we will have to make it standards track when/if one of the edge behaviours succeeds
>    

Interesting. And on this point: The WG believes ("proposed") that the 
approach in 3-in-1 is the correct approach ("standard"), and will be, 
whichever of the two experimental documents turns out to be used, 
correct? That would make me very comfortable with Proposed Standard.

> b) To make 3-in-1 experimental will require extensive re-writing. It has already been through the pain of us deciding that to make it workable it has to obsolete RFC5696.

So, let me skip down to question 3, because on this point I think there 
is some confusion:

So, the question was slightly different from my perspective: Let's make 
believe that the 3-in-1 effort has not yet started. Is the current use 
of PCN in 5696 a bad idea? Should people not be doing it at all and 
should just wait for a new way to do it? If so, then making 5696 
Historic (independent of what is to be done with 3-in-1) is the right 
thing to do.

If the answer is, no, people are quite reasonable to continue to use 
5696 until 3-in-1 gets out the door, at which point we think 3-in-1 is 
the better thing to do, then I think I agree with your assessment.

> I applaud the IESG trying to control the number of RFCs in the standards track, but the main point of control has to be in the chartering of the working groups.

So here's the funny thing: I am someone who thinks that we make too many 
things Experimental (or worse, BCP) and that *more* of our work belongs 
on the Standards Track (and progressed!). The only confusion for me (and 
I suspect others) was why the -sm and -cl documents were experiments, 
and that led to my questions about the 3-in-1 document. If what you say 
is correct (that the experiment is to decide between -sm and -cl), I 
think that clarifies the other question quite well. I'm a big proponent 
of having the WG (and the IETF writ large) decide how these things 
should go, but it's the IESG's responsibility to make sure that we all 
understand the basis on which the decision is made and that there's 
consensus on that.

I have always believed that PCN is designed in a modular fashion. We have a 
set of core concepts (metering, marking, encoding), an architecture and 
then 2 possible approaches for edge behaviours. So on that basis, yes, the 
status of this encoding is a separate issue to the status of the edge 
behaviours

That is my understanding of why it was decided to move the two edge 
behaviours to experimental - however I would have to defer to Tom to 
confirm or deny that

RFC5696 is the only reasonable approach in the world that existed before 
RFC6040 became a draft standard.

It was designed to work (and so still does work), but it has the major 
issue of preventing the CL edge behaviour from becoming a standard.

Now that RFC6040 has been published we believe that the new encoding is a 
better option. It is a complete superset of RFC5696, it takes advantage of 
the new tunneling rules, it is "safe" and it allows CL to be a viable edge 
behaviour. We believe (based on simulations) that SM performs significantly 
less well than CL. However SM has a lower implementation barrier for 
vendors...

I would certainly be happy for RFC5696 to continue until 3-in-1 is 
published - the original intent was to have them co-existing, but during 
the process of refining 3-in-1 we actually realised that they can't 
co-exist after all.

That sounds a very sensible view. I am certainly not a fan of the idea that 
you make something experimental as a sort of back-door to getting it to 
RFC.

I think the experiment is to choose between the two behaviours. I never 
previously thought of it that way because the set of potential edge 
behaviours was supposed to be open-ended, but these two are what we have 
ended up with for the moment at least.

Hi,

Is the goal to choose between the two and only standardize one?
I was of the impression both might be standardized and the choice was a
deployment decision based on environmental considerations.
Was I wrong on that point?

Hi Dave,

you are correct. Am MPLS domain probably is not able to spend more than one=
 codepoint
for ECN/PCN functions. That's why SM behaviours remain to be useful. In pur=
e IP
domains, CL may be used.

My understanding of all that is that the edge behaviours are experimental, =
as they
involve signaling, policy decisions and so on. Complexity, if you want.

The marking behaviour specified by 3-in-1 is simpler and I agree with other=
s, this
can be implemented and it should be implemented the way specified. To me, 3=
-in-1 is
a building block which can be used even if the edge behaviours see no imple=
mentation
at all. That of course would require different standardised edge or end sys=
tem
behaviours (the paket markings need to be interpreted correctly).

The edge behaviours contain useful and important information besides signal=
ing and
policy decisions. So I think parts of what's specified there is useful, eve=
n if they
are never deployed.

Hi,

Is the goal to choose between the two and only standardize one?
I was of the impression both might be standardized and the choice was a
deployment decision based on environmental considerations.
Was I wrong on that point?

PCN list,

Implementers might be interested in this tech report we've just 
published. It describes how to implement a virtual queue using 
existing hardware.

How to Build a Virtual Queue from Two Leaky Buckets (and why one is not enough)
<http://www.bobbriscoe.net/pubs.html#vq2lb>


Abstract:  A virtual queue can be used to predict when a real queue 
is about to grow. This memo explains why using a leaky bucket to 
implement a virtual queue is not useful, despite a superficial 
similarity. However, it is possible to implement a useful virtual 
queue using two leaky buckets. It requires a simple trick that can 
typically be implemented with existing hardware.

Greetings,

I've tallyed up the comments on the WGLC to publish

draft-ietf-pcn-psdm-encoding-02.txt and
draft-ietf-pcn-3-state-encoding-02.txt

as Historical RFCs.  By my count (excluding the chairs):

- one comment for publishing
- one comment against publishing
- three comments that are essentially "no objection".

That is not enough input to determine WG consensus either way.  Given
the non-zero effort required of the IESG and RFC Editor to get these
published, and the lack of consensus to publish, my determination is
that pcn *will not* request that these drafts be published.


Regards,

// Steve

The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'Overview of Pre-Congestion Notification Encoding'
  (draft-ietf-pcn-encoding-comparison-09.txt) as an Informational RFC

This document is the product of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion
Notification Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are David Harrington and Wesley Eddy.

A URL of this Internet Draft is:
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcn-encoding-comparison/




Technical Summary

    The PCN mechanism in routers in the interior of a PCN domain marks
    packets when certain configured rates are exceeded.  The PCN working
    group explored a number of approaches for encoding this pre-congestion
    information into the IP header.  This document describes the various
    approaches that were examined and discusses the constraints that had
    to be satisfied by a viable encoding mechanism.

Working Group Summary

      The document was subject to thorough review by the PCN working
      group, and strong consensus for publication was reached.

Document Quality

     The document was subject to thorough review by the PCN working
      group, and strong consensus for publication was reached.
     There are a number of companion documents that detail the
     specific approaches.

Personnel

   Document Shepherd: Steven Blake
   Responsible Area Director: David Harrington

RFC Editor Note

4.5 says RFC5696 was published as a draft Internet Standard. This is confusing, given the existence of the "Draft Internet Standard" status. RFC5696 is a Proposed Standard. Please reword to: "The baseline encoding described in section 4.1 is defined in [RFC5696]."

<br>
PCN folks,<br>
<br>
Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being the most comprehe=
nsive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-in-1 encoding.<b=
r>
<br>
As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical changes were neede=
d in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly what an implement=
er has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with PCN, and what def=
aults should be set to.<br>
<br>
In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any flow-state) tha=
t clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommended choice of 3 i=
s:<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is n=
ot PCN-compatible;<br>

In the
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; absence of any operator-specific
configuration for this case, by
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
the DSCP to zero.

</pre>
<br>
Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) has been re-writ=
ten, incorporating material that was previously repeated in both edge-behav=
iours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of course). Altho =
it largely does the same thing technically,
 it is written to cover the complete range of possible scenarios, and it no=
w gives defaults and recommended choices. I don't think it's controversial,=
 but shout if it is.<br>

PS. Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:

      *  Added note about fail-safe to protect other traffic in the
         event of tunnel misconfiguration.

      *  Changed section heading to be about applicability of
         environments to the encoding, rather than the encoding to the
         environments.

      *  Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress Node Behaviour section.

      *  Changed PCN interior node to PCN-node where the term was
         intended to include all PCN-nodes.

      *  Clarified status of ECN/PCN co-existence appendix.  Removed
         inconsistent assertion in this appendix that an admission-
         control DSCP alone can indicate that arriving traffic is PCN-
         traffic.

      *  A few clarifying editorial amendments and updated refs.

I certainly think this is now in good shape to progress (but as I'm an autho=
r my opinion may be biased).

<br>
PCN folks,<br>
<br>
Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being the most comprehen=
sive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-in-1 encoding.<br>=

<br>
As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical changes were needed=
 in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly what an implementer=
 has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with PCN, and what defaul=
ts should be set to.<br>
<br>
In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any flow-state) that=
 clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommended choice of 3 is:=
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is no=
t PCN-compatible;<br>
<br>
<br>
<pre>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp=
;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In the
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; absence of any operator-specific
configuration for this case, by
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
the DSCP to zero.

</pre>
<br>
Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) has been re-writt=
en, incorporating material that was previously repeated in both edge-behavio=
urs (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of course). Altho it l=
argely does the same thing technically,
 it is written to cover the complete range of possible scenarios, and it now=
 gives defaults and recommended choices. I don't think it's controversial, b=
ut shout if it is.<br>

Hi all,



I think that the changes satisfy nicely the comments of Adrian!



Best regards,

From: Bob Briscoe <bob.briscoe@bt.com<mailto:bob.briscoe@bt.com>>
Subject: New Version: draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-09.txt

PCN folks,

Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being the most comprehe=
nsive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-in-1 encoding.

As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical changes were neede=
d in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly what an implement=
er has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with PCN, and what def=
aults should be set to.

In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any flow-state) tha=
t clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommended choice of 3 i=
s:

      *  re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is not PCN-compatible;




[...]

In the

      absence of any operator-specific

configuration for this case, by

      default an implementation SHOULD re-mark

the DSCP to zero.



Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) has been re-writ=
ten, incorporating material that was previously repeated in both edge-behav=
iours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of course). Altho =
it largely does the same thing technically, it is written to cover the comp=
lete range of possible scenarios, and it now gives defaults and recommended=
 choices. I don't think it's controversial, but shout if it is.

>



Bob

PS. Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:

      *  Added note about fail-safe to protect other traffic in the
         event of tunnel misconfiguration.

      *  Changed section heading to be about applicability of
         environments to the encoding, rather than the encoding to the
         environments.

      *  Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress Node Behaviour section.

      *  Changed PCN interior node to PCN-node where the term was
         intended to include all PCN-nodes.

      *  Clarified status of ECN/PCN co-existence appendix.  Removed
         inconsistent assertion in this appendix that an admission-
         control DSCP alone can indicate that arriving traffic is PCN-
         traffic.

      *  A few clarifying editorial amendments and updated refs.

I am making what I trust will be the final revisions to the edge 
behaviour documents in response to IESG comments. Amongst other things, 
this is the text I propose to add in the introduction to justify the 
Experimental status of the documents. The text will be the same for CL 
and for SM, following on Ruediger's observation that both behaviours are 
valid in different contexts. Comments are welcomed.

---

This document describes an experimental edge node behaviour to implement 
PCN in a network. The experiment may be run in a network in which a 
substantial proportion of the traffic carried is in the form of 
inelastic flows and where admission control of micro-flows is applied at 
the edge. For the effects of PCN to be observable, at least some links 
of the network should be running near or at capacity. The amount of 
effort required to prepare the network for the experiment (see Section 
5.1) may constrain the size of network to which it is applied. The 
purposes of the experiment are:

- to validate the specification of the CL [SM] edge behaviour;

- to evaluate the effectiveness of the CL [SM] edge behaviour in
   preserving quality of service for admitted flows; and

- to evaluate PCN's potential for reducing the amount of capital and
   operational costs in comparison to alternative methods of assuring
   quality of service.

For the first two objectives, the experiment should run long enough for 
the network to experience sharp peaks of traffic in at least some 
directions. It would also be desirable to observe PCN performance in the 
face of failures in the network. A period in the order of a month or two 
in busy season may be enough. The third objective is more difficult, and 
could require observation over a period long enough for traffic demand 
to grow to the point where additional capacity must be provisioned at 
some points in the network.

Better: "the aggregate rate of admitted flows on some links should come 
close to the bandwidths of these links."

These peaks could be intentionally caused for the sake of the experiment 
so that the effect of admission control is visible.

Also failures could be intentionally caused for the sake of the 
experiment. Capacity shortage on backup paths could also be planned for 
so that the effect of flow termination is visible.

Best wishes,

Good points. That means the experiment doesn't have to run very long to 
meet the first two objectives. I do have one concern that if you 
introduce artificial traffic then maybe you don't get the same outcome 
that real traffic gives you. I figure it's inevitable that the benefits 
of PCN with real traffic in a real network will be less than our 
simulations show, if only because real networks tend to be over-provided 
with capacity.

I don't suggest artifical traffic to cause admitted traffic exceeding 
the PCN threshold but real traffic. A planned experiment does not imply 
artifical traffic.

I know this is a nit, but shouldn't the text actually read

Option #1  "... re-mark the DSCP to 000000."

or even

Option #2  "... re-mark the DSCP to 0."

or even

Option #3  "... re-mark the DSCP to zero (000000)."

or even

Option #4  "... re-mark the DSCP to zero (0)."

instead of just

   "... re-mark the DSCP to zero."

?

I prefer Option #1, but am happy with Option #3 over the others. IMO 
this should not remain as it is.

                    <br>
                    PCN folks,<br>
                    <br>
                    Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's
                    being the most comprehensive and useful), we've
                    posted a new version of the PCN 3-in-1 encoding.<br>
                    <br>
                    As well as a number of editorial changes, some
                    technical changes were needed in order to satisfy
                    Adrian's request to specify exactly what an
                    implementer has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to
                    co-exist with PCN, and what defaults should be set
                    to.<br>
                    <br>
                    In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't
                    match any flow-state) that clashes with a PCN DSCP
                    and is ECN-capable, the recommended choice of 3 is:<br>
                    <br>
                    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp; re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is not
                    PCN-compatible;<br>
                    <br>
                    <br>
                    <pre>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
[...]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In the
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; absence of any operator-specific
configuration for this case, by
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
the DSCP to zero.

</pre>
                    <br>
                    Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section
                    (5.1) has been re-written, incorporating material
                    that was previously repeated in both edge-behaviours
                    (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors,
                    of course). Altho it largely does the same thing
                    technically, it is written to cover the complete
                    range of possible scenarios, and it now gives
                    defaults and recommended choices. I don't think it's
                    controversial, but shout if it is.<br>

Hi Tom, hi Michael

"network running near capacity" is correct if complete links transmit
PCN traffic only. Otherwise, "PCN network capacities running near
congestion (on at least one interface)" is better. That may also
simplify experiments, dedicated tunnels in a live network with
proper marking may suffice.

Regards,

Ruediger

Better: "the aggregate rate of admitted flows on some links should come
close to the bandwidths of these links."

Michael
These peaks could be intentionally caused for the sake of the experiment
so that the effect of admission control is visible.

Hi Scott,

the passage you quote should result from a misconfiguration or an attack.

      Treatment of non-PCN-packets confused with a PCN-packet
      due to DSCP/ECN codepoinzt setting:
      ...
      In the absence of any operator-specific
      configuration for this case, by
      default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
      the DSCP to zero.
      ...
      Clearing the ECN field is not an appropriate
      policing action, because a network node ought not to interfere
      with an e2e signal.  Even if such packets seem like an attack,
      drop would be overkill, because such an attack can be neutralised
      by just re-marking the DSCP.  And DSCP re-marking in the network
      is legitimate, because the DSCP is not considered an e2e signal.

What's done here is remarking of a flow with a DSCP that has been
agreed between two parties. On a consumer UNI, this may be an attack,
on an NNI, this could indicate a misconfiguration. In the latter case,
a management alert seems reasonable. Text to that may be added.

I further quote the PCN architecture, which is informational, on the
Ingress Node behaviour:

      Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
      indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.
      (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
      admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)  Similarly,
      police packets that are part of a previously admitted flow, to
      check that the flow keeps to the agreed rate or flowspec (eg, see
      [RFC1633] for a microflow and its NSIS equivalent).

This isn't in line with the proposed 3-in-1 (standards track) behaviour.
Does this require an "Errata" atatement for RFC5559 (I'm not an expert on
editing RFCs and may be wrong here)?

Regards,

Ruediger

                Subject: New Version: draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-09.txt

                PCN folks,

                Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being t=
he most comprehensive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-=
in-1 encoding.

                As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical ch=
anges were needed in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly w=
hat an implementer has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with P=
CN, and what defaults should be set to.

                In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any=
 flow-state) that clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommend=
ed choice of 3 is:

                      *  re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is not PCN-compati=
ble;




                [...]
                In the
                      absence of any operator-specific
                configuration for this case, by
                      default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
                the DSCP to zero.



                Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) =
has been re-written, incorporating material that was previously repeated in=
 both edge-behaviours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of=
 course). Altho it largely does the same thing technically, it is written t=
o cover the complete range of possible scenarios, and it now gives defaults=
 and recommended choices. I don't think it's controversial, but shout if it=
 is.

                Bob

                PS. Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:

                      *  Added note about fail-safe to protect other traffi=
c in the
                         event of tunnel misconfiguration.

                      *  Changed section heading to be about applicability =
of
                         environments to the encoding, rather than the enco=
ding to the
                         environments.

                      *  Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress Node Behaviour sec=
tion.

                      *  Changed PCN interior node to PCN-node where the te=
rm was
                         intended to include all PCN-nodes.

                      *  Clarified status of ECN/PCN co-existence appendix.=
  Removed
                         inconsistent assertion in this appendix that an ad=

Hi Ruediger, hi Tom!

Ruediger, you are right. The text should be

"the aggregate rate of admitted flows on some links should come
close to the *admissible rates* of these links."

Good spot!

To me, either drop or re-mark to Best effort seem ok. I can see bob's argum=
ent that it is nicer internet behaviour to treat as best effort than to dro=
p.
Adding a mgt alert seems very good.
Since it does indeed differ from pcn architecture, i guess it needs a state=
ment in the 'header' "Modifies 5559" and something in the Intro (?) that st=
ates which para of 5559 is modified in what way.=20

Hi Scott,

the passage you quote should result from a misconfiguration or an attack.

      Treatment of non-PCN-packets confused with a PCN-packet
      due to DSCP/ECN codepoinzt setting:
      ...
      In the absence of any operator-specific
      configuration for this case, by
      default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
      the DSCP to zero.
      ...
      Clearing the ECN field is not an appropriate
      policing action, because a network node ought not to interfere
      with an e2e signal.  Even if such packets seem like an attack,
      drop would be overkill, because such an attack can be neutralised
      by just re-marking the DSCP.  And DSCP re-marking in the network
      is legitimate, because the DSCP is not considered an e2e signal.

What's done here is remarking of a flow with a DSCP that has been
agreed between two parties. On a consumer UNI, this may be an attack,
on an NNI, this could indicate a misconfiguration. In the latter case,
a management alert seems reasonable. Text to that may be added.

I further quote the PCN architecture, which is informational, on the
Ingress Node behaviour:

      Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
      indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.
      (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
      admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)  Similarly,
      police packets that are part of a previously admitted flow, to
      check that the flow keeps to the agreed rate or flowspec (eg, see
      [RFC1633] for a microflow and its NSIS equivalent).

This isn't in line with the proposed 3-in-1 (standards track) behaviour.
Does this require an "Errata" atatement for RFC5559 (I'm not an expert on
editing RFCs and may be wrong here)?

Regards,

Ruediger

                From: Bob Briscoe <bob.briscoe@bt.com>
                Subject: New Version: draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-09.txt

                PCN folks,

                Following IESG review (particularly Adrian Farrel's being t=
he most comprehensive and useful), we've posted a new version of the PCN 3-=
in-1 encoding.

                As well as a number of editorial changes, some technical ch=
anges were needed in order to satisfy Adrian's request to specify exactly w=
hat an implementer has to do at the ingress to allow ECN to co-exist with P=
CN, and what defaults should be set to.

                In particular, for a non-PCN packet (i.e. doesn't match any=
 flow-state) that clashes with a PCN DSCP and is ECN-capable, the recommend=
ed choice of 3 is:

                      *  re-mark the DSCP to a DSCP that is not PCN-compati=
ble;




                [...]
                In the
                      absence of any operator-specific
                configuration for this case, by
                      default an implementation SHOULD re-mark
                the DSCP to zero.



                Actually, the whole of the ingress behaviour section (5.1) =
has been re-written, incorporating material that was previously repeated in=
 both edge-behaviours (agreed with IESG and with edge-behaviour authors, of=
 course). Altho it largely does the same thing technically, it is written t=
o cover the complete range of possible scenarios, and it now gives defaults=
 and recommended choices. I don't think it's controversial, but shout if it=
 is.

                Bob

                PS. Changes From draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-08 to -09:

                      *  Added note about fail-safe to protect other traffi=
c in the
                         event of tunnel misconfiguration.

                      *  Changed section heading to be about applicability =
of
                         environments to the encoding, rather than the enco=
ding to the
                         environments.

                      *  Completely re-wrote PCN-ingress Node Behaviour sec=
tion.

                      *  Changed PCN interior node to PCN-node where the te=
rm was
                         intended to include all PCN-nodes.

                      *  Clarified status of ECN/PCN co-existence appendix.=
  Removed
                         inconsistent assertion in this appendix that an ad=

To add to your nit, I think it may be helpful to add something like

"(by default 000000 indicates the best-effort forwarding behaviour)"

I know this is a nit, but shouldn't the text actually read

Option #1  "... re-mark the DSCP to 000000."

or even

Option #2  "... re-mark the DSCP to 0."

or even

Option #3  "... re-mark the DSCP to zero (000000)."

or even

Option #4  "... re-mark the DSCP to zero (0)."

instead of just

   "... re-mark the DSCP to zero."

?

I prefer Option #1, but am happy with Option #3 over the others. IMO=20
this should not remain as it is.

I did rework the wording to capture Ruediger's sense. Michael, your 
wording assumes that PCN is already running on the network, where in 
this case one is examining a network as a prospect for a PCN experiment.

All changes apply to both documents except for the change in description 
of the factor U, which is SM-specific.

David, you may not have been aware of the need for item 10. Please 
verify that it is OK.

Hope everyone is happy with the changes. Please note additional fixes 
called out at the end of item 13. I think these can be taken care of in 
AUTH 48.

Changes

1. Added text in the introduction to describe the experiment (requested 
by Pete Resnick).

2. Lower-cased a MUST in the paragraph following the new text, talking 
about the need to fill out a per-hop behaviour template. (Part of an 
attempt to clean out unnecessary RFC 2119 language mentioned by two ADs.)

3. Trivial: replaced all t- and T- names for timers and durations with 
t_ and T_ as suggested by Stephen Farrell to avoid confusion with 
arithmetic operations. (Actually missed a few in the CL draft and will 
have to get them in AUTH 48.)

4. First line of Section 3.2.1: replaced "MUST" with "needs to" for 
metering. Changed "informational note" to "Note" after the bullets (both 
at Pete Resnick's suggestion).

5. Section 3.3, first paragraph, talking about support of flow admission 
and termination mechanisms: changed "A Decision Point MUST support both 
mechanisms, but ..." to "If a Decision Point supports both mechanisms, 
...". (Pete Resnick -- couldn't see any interoperability issue to 
justify the MUST.)

6. Section 3.3.3, talking about failure to receive a response from the 
ingress node. Rewrote in an attempt both to satisfy Pete Resnick's 
concern about over-use of mandatory language and to make the mandatory 
procedures clearer.

OLD

    A centralized Decision Point SHOULD start a timer t-sndFail when it
    sends a request for the estimated value of PCN-sent-rate to a given
    PCN-ingress-node.  If the Decision Point fails to receive a response
    from the PCN-ingress-node before t-sndFail reaches the configurable
    value T-crit, the Decision Point SHOULD repeat the request but MAY
    also use ETM-rate as an estimate of the amount of traffic to be
    terminated in place of the quantity

       PCN-sent-rate - SAR

    specified in Section 3.3.2.  Because this will over-estimate the
    amount of traffic to be terminated due to dropping of PCN-packets by
    interior nodes, the Decision Point SHOULD use multiple rounds of
    termination under these circumstances.  If the second request to the
    PCN-ingress-node also fails, the Decision Point SHOULD notify
    management.

       The use of T-crit is an approximation.  A more precise limit would
       be of the order of two round-trip times, plus an allowance for
       processing at each end, plus an allowance for variance in these
       values.

NEW

    If a centralized Decision Point sends a request for the estimated
    value of PCN-sent-rate to a given PCN-ingress-node and fails to
    receive a response in a reasonable amount of time, the Decision Point
    SHOULD repeat the request once.  While waiting after sending this
    second request, the Decision Point MAY begin selecting flows to
    terminate, using ETM-rate as an estimate of the amount of traffic to
    be terminated in place of the quantity

       PCN-sent-rate - SAR

    specified in Section 3.3.2.  Because ETM-rate will over-estimate the
    amount of traffic to be terminated due to dropping of PCN-packets by
    interior nodes, the Decision Point SHOULD terminate less than the
    full amount ETM-rate in the first pass and recalculate the additional
    amount to terminate in additional passes based on subsequent reports
    from the PCN-egress-node.  If the second request to the PCN-ingress-
    node also fails, the Decision Point MUST select flows to terminate
    based on the ETM-rate approximation as just described and should
    notify management.

       The response timer t_sndFail with upper bound T_crit is specified
       in Section 3.5.  The use of T_crit is an approximation.  A more
       precise limit would be of the order of two round-trip times, plus
       an allowance for processing at each end, plus an allowance for
       variance in these values.

7. Section 3.4, note giving an example of how the PCN-ingress-node does 
its estimate: changed the "MAY" to a "can".

8. Section 3.5, action for expiry of t_sndFail: referred back to Section 
3.3.3 instead of the previous inaccurate summary of a fairly complex 
procedure.

9. Removed all RFC 2119 language from Section 4 (the per-hop behaviour 
section). Originally responding to a comment by Sean Turner that Section 
4.2.1 claimed to paraphrase RFC 5559 but had such language where RFC 
5559 did not. Decided that it wasn't necessary elsewhere in the section, 
either.

10. Based on discussion of the 3-in-1 draft, at Bob Briscoe's request, 
changed section 4.2.1 to focus only on the tunneling option and the 
resulting non-problem with use of ECN bits.

OLD

    Packets at the ingress to the domain are classified as either PCN or
    non-PCN.  Non-PCN packets MAY share the network with PCN packets
    within the domain.  Because the encoding specified in [RFC5696] and
    used in this document requires the use of the ECN fields, PCN-
    ingress-nodes MUST prevent ECN-capable traffic that uses the same
    DSCP as PCN from entering the PCN-domain directly.  The PCN-ingress-
    node can accomplish this in three ways.  The choice between these
    depends on local policy.

    o  ECN-capable traffic MAY be dropped.  This policy is NOT
       RECOMMENDED, since it prevents the proper operation of end-to-end
       ECN as a means of controlling congestion.

    o  ECN-capable traffic MAY be assigned a different DSCP from PCN
       traffic.  This could mean that it is relegated to a lower-priority
       behaviour aggregate.

    o  ECN-capable traffic MAY be tunneled across the PCN-domain.  If
       this is done, the PCN-ingress-node MUST mark packets as either
       not-PCN or PCN-not-marked only after the encapsulation of the
       packet, including any initial setting of the ECN field, has been
       completed.

NEW

    Packets at the ingress to the domain are classified as either PCN or
    non-PCN.  Non-PCN packets can share the network with PCN packets
    within the domain.  The encoding specified in [RFC5696] and used in
    this document requires the use of the ECN fields.  PCN-ingress-nodes
    need to prevent ECN-capable traffic that uses the same DSCP as PCN
    from entering the PCN-domain directly.  This is not an issue when
    tunneling of PCN-packets between the PCN-ingress-node and the PCN-
    egress-node is done, as recommended in Section 5.1.2, provided that
    the original ECN markings of arriving packets are preserved in the
    encapsulated headers.

11. In the next paragraph, originally said that PCN packets of 
non-admitted flows are dropped. Replaced this with "blocked" and a 
backward reference to the definition of blocking in Section 1. 
(Follow-through on comments by Brian Carpenter, fixed elsewhere.

12. Section 4.7: originally said PCN use of ECN bits could interfere 
with the end-to-end use of ECN. Replaced with the following text:

    The PCN CL per-domain behaviour could theoretically interfere with
    the use of end-to-end ECN due to reuse of ECN bits for PCN marking.
    However, this is not a problem in practice because of the need to
    tunnel PCN-packets from ingress to egress (see Section 5.1.2).  The
    encapsulated header can retain the original ECN markings as received
    at the PCN-ingress-node, leaving the ECN bits in the encapsulating
    header fully available for use by PCN.

13. Section 5.1.3, basically editorial rearrangement of text to take 
account of the fact that the ingress node will always perform 
encapsulation. Talking about extensions to the DiffServ MIB.

OLD

    ... The required
    extensions specifically include objects for re-marking the ECN field
    at the PCN-ingress-node and an extension to the classifiers to
    include the ECN field at PCN-interior and PCN-egress-nodes.  In
    addition, the MIB has to be extended to include a potential
    encapsulation action following re-classification by ingress-egress-
    aggregate.  Finally, a new metering algorithm may need to be defined
    at the PCN-interior-nodes to handle excess-traffic-marking.

NEW

    ... The required
    extensions specifically include an encapsulation action following re-
    classification by ingress-egress-aggregate.  In addition, the MIB has
    to be extended to include objects for marking the ECN field in the
    outer header at the PCN-ingress-node and an extension to the
    classifiers to include the ECN field at PCN-interior and PCN-egress-
    nodes.  Finally, new metering algorithms may need to be defined at
    the PCN-interior-nodes to handle threshold-marking and packet-size-
    independent excess-traffic-marking.

*Oops noted* -- that text was taken from the SM document. Have to remove 
the reference to threshold-marking, and have to mark that point 
"[CL-specific]" in the CL document.

*Speaking of oops*: Section 5.1.1 still talks about the operator having 
to decide whether to use tunneling. Should that stay or go?

14. Security consideration added (Section 6), in response to comments by 
two ADs. Section now reads:

    [RFC5559] provides a general description of the security
    considerations for PCN.  This memo introduces one new consideration,
    related to the use of a centralized Decision Point.  The Decision
    Point itself is a trusted entity.  However, its use implies the
    existence of an interface on the PCN-ingress-node through which
    communication of policy decisions takes place.  That interface is a
    point of vulnerability which must be protected from denial of service
    attacks.

15. Fixed reference Mele12, naming the journal in which the article will 
appear.

16. SM-specific change in Section 3.3.2 to improve the description of 
the factor U. The new text reads:

    1.  [SM-specific] The sustainable aggregate rate (SAR) for the given
        ingress-egress-aggregate is estimated using the formula:

           SAR = U * NM-Rate

        for the latest reported interval, where U is a configurable
        factor greater than one which is the same for all ingress-egress-
        aggregates.  In effect, the value of the PCN-supportable-rate for
        each link is approximated by the expression

           U*PCN-admissible-rate

        rather than being calculated explicitly.

Using ETM-Rate instead of (PCN-sent-rate - SAR) may be a correct 
workaround for CL but not for SM! With SM, the PCN traffic rate is 
terminated down to the admissible rate in the absence of traffic loss. 
The approach corresponding to CL would be (NM-Rate + ETM-Rate - SAR).

This works for CL but not for SM, see my previous email!

Moving the old text to 3-in-1 means that this doc is now aware of 
3-in-1. Therefore, we should base this edge behavior no longer on 
baseline encoding (RFC5696) but on 3-in-1.

I think to remember that 3-in-1 recommended recoloring as preferred

I do not understand why the defined marking algorithms are not 
sufficient. Also packet-size-independent excess-traffic-marking is 
defined (see 2.4 in RFC5670).

My comments in turn below, marked with [PTT].

David, we have a technical error in the SM document, introduced in the 
-06 version. Can I update it and resubmit?

[PTT] That terminology is appropriate once PCN is running, but when you 
are evaluating a network in advance of installing PCN, I don't think you 
can talk about admissible rate.

[PTT] I thought hard about that, then decided operators might not be

[PTT] You are absolutely right. This comes from working on CL first, 
then cutting and pasting. The bad text has been there since the -06 
version. I'll have to back it out to what was there in -05: no 
workaround, just notify management.

[PTT] I don't think we have to, although it might be reasonable. The 
argument is that there is no need for the old text because we are using 
tunneling.

[PTT] We agreed on local policy as the answer when discussing Brian

The above passage is talking about whether the DiffServ MIB supports the

But when you deploy PCN for the sake of an experiment, then you can.

But when you want to perform the experiment, then you want to experience 
challenging conditions. Maybe in a testbed to avoid losing revenues.

I'd suggest to substitute RFC5696 by 3-in-1 in general to avoid 
confusion by a soon obsoleted RFC.

Hi Phil,

I think that some of your comments/questions can be answered by the slides =
that=20
were presented during IETF 81 in Quebec city, see below, where the initial =
version of the draft had been presented, at both tsvwg and pcn wg meetings:

http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/81/slides/pcn-0.pdf

http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/81/slides/tsvwg-0.pdf

Best regards,
Georgios

Onderwerp: RE: I-D Action: draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt

Hi,

Sorry, I had some problems understanding the draft. I spent a couple of hou=
rs and basically couldn=92t get a mental model what the mechanism is. is th=
ere a presentation that could help me understand?

Suggest you include a problem statement. Something similar to S1.1 of rfc31=
75 (RSVP reservation aggregation). From a PCN perspective, I don=92t unders=
tand the purpose. Is it saving something (signalling?) that could be done i=
n a less efficient way without this doc? Or achieving something impossible =
without it?

I don't understand why you build on 4860 (generic aggregate reservations) r=
ather than 3175 (aggregate reservations)

It would be helpful to outline the overall architecture. Fig 1 helps a bit,=
 but I think it would be very useful to give examples of signalling for the=
 basic cases (I roughly guess these are when there are e2e rsvp msgs for a =
new flow and [1] there is already PCN-state for the relevant pair of PCN-bo=
undary-nodes; [2] when there isn't.) That would help show how PCN, RSVP and=
 generic aggregated rsvp fit together. I didn't understand how (at what poi=
nt in your procedure) the PCN-ingress-node knows which is the relevant PCN-=
egress-node

It is quite hard to work out at various points whether address means the en=
d host or the PCN-boundary-node address.

I found the last paras on page 9 & 10 not understandable (many-to-1 mapping=
 of what-to-what?). Note that ingress-egress-aggregate is "the collection o=
f PCN-packets from all PCN-flows that travel in one direction between a spe=
cific pair of PCN-boundary-nodes" and some of the text seemed to contradict=
 this definition. I think you mean: "between a particular pair of PCN-bound=
ary-nodes there MAY be several generic aggregate reservations"? (I don't re=
ally understand why you might want that)

2.1.1 "The PHB-ID (Per Hop Behavior Identification Code) used, SHOULD be se=
t equal to PCN-compatible Diffserv codepoint(s)." - aren=92t they different=
 lengths?

I think [draft-ietf-pcn-signaling-requirements-08], [RFC5670] and [RFC5696]=
 are probably Informative refs (rather than normative), and perhaps [RFC555=
9] is Normative rather than Informative.

If you have time, it would be good to find a corner in Paris so you can exp=
lain it to me - thanks!

Best wishes
phil

    Title         : PCN Boundary Node Behaviour for the Controlled Load (CL) Mode of Operation
    Author(s)     : A. Charny, et al
    Filename      : draft-ietf-pcn-cl-edge-behaviour

   Pre-congestion notification (PCN) is a means for protecting the
   quality of service for inelastic traffic admitted to a Diffserv
   domain.  The overall PCN architecture is described in RFC 5559.  This
   memo is one of a series describing possible boundary node behaviours
   for a PCN-domain.  The behaviour described here is that for a form of
   measurement-based load control using three PCN marking states, not-
   marked, threshold-marked, and excess-traffic-marked.  This behaviour
   is known informally as the Controlled Load (CL) PCN-boundary-node
   behaviour.

Michael,

One way to do this would be to administratively shut down a link or 
node, allow protection to shift traffic and monitor whether PCN 
starts admission control. But it would be a brave operator who did 
this with live traffic, even if it had been simulated first.

I guess you might do it for a few tens of seconds when you know 
measured traffic will fit into protection capacity but above the 
admissable rate, check it works then bring the link back up.

Tom,

Your original text was good, and I agree with the way people have 
converged on improvements so far. I want to  go back to your first 
posting and pick out a couple of other parts of the text...

Perhaps the proposed text is rather too prescriptive about what a 
valid experiment would be. I suggest:

s/The purposes of the experiment are:/
  /Vendors and operators will have their own purposes for conducting 
experiments, but example purposes would be:/

One more comment inline...

The third objective may not necessarily require a wait for capacity 
to actually be provisioned. The main unknown costs are:
a) cost of implementation and operation of PCN (relative to an alternative)
b) any differences in capacity costs due to differences in feasible utilisation

An experimental deployment is the best way to quantify (a).
But (b) may be sufficiently quantifiable using projections without 
having to wait for capacity to need replacing.

James,

Done (Option #3), unless my co-authors would rather choose another option.

You will have seen a manually posted 
draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-10 just appear (at the request of our 
AD). But we will do another rev for changes like this.

Yes, when I realised this could be a mistake or an attack, I realised 
remarking the DSCP was the right approach to recommend, because it 
allows the operator to control this as part of their general DSCP 
re-marking policy.

BTW, the default of "re-mark to zero", was merely so /implementers/ 
have a default. It's not intended to be the recommended policy for operators.

>In the latter case,
>a management alert seems reasonable. Text to that may be added.

Good catch. In fact, an alert for an attack is also worth suggesting. 
I suggest the following text after "...re-mark the DSCP to zero (000000)."

"Whichever policing action is chosen, the PCN-ingress-node SHOULD log 
the event and MAY also raise an alarm. Alarms SHOULD be rate-limited 
so that the anomalous packets will not amplify into a flood of alarm messages."

You're right. When we wrote this point in the architecture I think we 
were only thinking about blocked flows. I don't think that text was 
intended to catch packets that had never even asked to be admitted 
(i.e. mistakes or attacks).

>Does this require an "Errata" atatement for RFC5559 (I'm not an expert on
>editing RFCs and may be wrong here)?

You're right that something needs doing about this statement in the 
architecture. We could say in 3-in-1 that it updates RFC5559. That 
would require an extra section in 3-in-1 saying exactly which part of 
the architecture it updates.

I prefer your erratum suggestion because it flags the problem in the 
doc that now needs clarifying, so it's more likely to be noticed by 
people reading the deprecated text. But we'll have to see whether 
this would be accepted as an erratum. The relevant rule is #7 here:
<http://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/errata-processing.html>

"Changes that modify the working of a protocol to something that 
might be different from the intended consensus when the document was 
approved should be either Hold for Document Update or Rejected. 
Deciding between these two depends on judgment. Changes that are 
clearly modifications to the intended consensus, or involve large 
textual changes, should be Rejected. In unclear situations, small 
changes can be Hold for Document Update. "

If we wrote an erratum to RFC5559, it would be legitimate, because 
the para you have quoted has two contradictory statements in it 
anyway. I doubt an erratum can refer to an RFC published later 
(3-in-1), because errata are meant to correct what the document 
should have said at the time. I think we could compose an erratum 
that resolved the contradiction in that paragraph while at the same 
time making it "not inconsistent" with what we now want to say in 3-in-1.

Scott, can you advise?


Bob

[BB] Section 5.1.2 doesn't actually recommend tunnelling, at least 
not in normative language. All it says is:
"                               As a result, the only way to construct
    such filters reliably is to tunnel the packets from the PCN-ingress-
    node to the PCN-egress-node.
"
In fact we shouldn't only receommend tunnelling, because that's not 
actually true. One could implement CL-PCN by layering rather than 
tunneling. This would work if PCN edge-nodes were the only IP-aware 
nodes in the PCN domain, and PCN metering & marking was done at the 
lower layer (e.g. MPLS) on interior nodes.

This would affect the assumed core network behaviour too. At the 
start of S.2. I suggest a sentence such as:

OLD:
"  This section describes the assumed behaviour for PCN-interior-nodes
    in the PCN-domain.
"
SUGGESTED:
"  This section describes the assumed behaviour for IP-aware PCN-interior-nodes
    in the PCN-domain.
"

And add at end of Section 2:
"An alternative would be to use PCN in MPLS on interior nodes. In 
this case all references to the PCN encoding for IP [3-in-1] would be 
replaced by references to the PCN encoding for MPLS described in 
Appendix A of [RFC5129] (Appendix C of [3-in-1] also gives useful 
examples of the PCN encoding in MPLS). In the rest of this document 
IP-aware interior nodes are assumed. "

In addition, we should state in the introduction (and possibly the 
abstract) that this doc assumes IP-aware PCN nodes, but MPLS interior 
nodes are briefly discussed as an alternative.

It may help to call these edge-behaviours CL-IP and SM-IP, not just 
CL & SM. Then later someone could produce near-identical copies of 
these RFCs called CL-MPLS and SM-MPLS (the latter makes more sense 
than the former because of codepoint restrictions). These wouldn't 
use tunnelling, and would refer to a different encoding, but would 
otherwise be fairly identical.

[Another alternative is to use Layer 3 Ethernet switches as interior 
nodes. L3 switches do forwarding on Ethernet addresses, but they can 
bury into the IP header in the payload for the Diffserv & ECN fields 
(Microsoft has deployed ECN-marking on Layer-3 switches within its 
data centres). However, there's no need to mention an Ethernet option 
in the docs - it's a can-of-worms for standards because some see it 
as a layering violation. This little aside was for the list, not the doc.]

[BB] I agree. I believe the edge-behaviours and 3-in-1 are all going 
through together so it would be wrong to refer to a doc that 3-in-1 
obsoletes. The RFC-Editor will substitute the appropriate RFCxxxx for 
3-in-1, which will be a normative reference.

I'm afraid you will also need to substitute the new names for the two 
marked codepoints (PM->ETM & EXP->ThM), but SM will only need one (ETM).

[BB] There's a distinction needed between:
i) treatment of packets of a flow that has asked to be admitted but 
been blocked and
ii) packets where there has never been a request for their flow to be 
admitted, but they happen to be using a PCN-compatible DSCP and an 
ECN-capable codepoint.

For case (i) it would be perfectly reasonable to drop, but re-marking 
the DSCP would also be a reasonable policy.
For case (ii) drop would be unreasonable, because these packets just 
happen to be using a PCN codepoint outside the PCN domain, but 
they're not PCN-traffic. PCN nodes have no business interfering with 
non-PCN traffic. However they've got to do something to prevent 
confusion. So the safest action is to re-mark the DSCP.

If the behaviour for (i) & (ii) are different this could be awkward, 
because it means the PCN-ingress has to remember all the flows it has 
blocked in order to treat them differently from packets that never 
asked to be admitted. How long does it remember blocked flows for?

So a sensible policy would be to treat both (i) & (ii) the same to 
save having to remember blocked flows. But from a standards 
viewpoint, we should still make the distinction, because the 
treatment of each should be a policy choice, not something we should prejudge.

The edge-behaviour docs are the right place to deal with case (i), 
but for the latter case both edge-behaviour docs need to refer to the 
new Section 5.1 of [3-in-1]. The logic here is that edge-behaviours 
deal with flow-related stuff, while 3-in-1 deals with individual 
packets. [3-in-1] refers to the edge-behaviours for handling packets 
of signalled flows.

The split between specs here is unfortunate, but necessary.

[BB] Again, there may need to be some reference to layering as an

[BB] The text is still misleading. We on the list only understand 
because you've explained on the list. Perhaps:

s/Finally, new metering algorithms may need to be defined/
  /Finally, new MIB entries for the metering algorithms may need to be defined/

Cheers

Scott,

If an erratum is rejected, we'll have to update the architecture via 3-in-1.

Therefore, we'll have to post the erratum quickly, so that we know 
whether it has been rejected or not before 3-in-1 gets thru the RFC-Editor.

Here's the erratum I will post unless anyone can suggest a better way:

====================================================================
RFC5559, "Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) Architecture", June 2009
Source of RFC: pcn (tsv)

Type: Technical

Reported By: Bob Briscoe
Date Reported: 2012-03-XX

Section 4.2 says:

    o  Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
       indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.
       (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
       admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)


It should say:

    o  Police - police, by dropping or re-marking the DSCP of any packets
       received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not belong
       to an admitted flow. (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could
       be blocked or admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)


Notes:

The change makes the first sentence consistent with the parenthesis, 
otherwise the two contradict. The first sentence as it stands could 
be interpreted to mean that dropping is the only allowed policing 
action, whereas the parenthesis shows that downgrading was also 
considered appropriate.
====================================================================

What does block in the parentheses mean? The same as reject? Or does 
blocking imply dropping instead of remarking the DSCP? I find the text 
clearer without the parentheses. Re-marking the DSCP must imply 
downgrading (could be added) which does not exclude admission into a 
lower-priority behavior aggregate.

      Michael

Yes, when I realised this could be a mistake or an attack, I realised
remarking the DSCP was the right approach to recommend, because it
allows the operator to control this as part of their general DSCP
re-marking policy.

BTW, the default of "re-mark to zero", was merely so /implementers/
have a default. It's not intended to be the recommended policy for operator=
s.

>In the latter case,
>a management alert seems reasonable. Text to that may be added.

Good catch. In fact, an alert for an attack is also worth suggesting.
I suggest the following text after "...re-mark the DSCP to zero (000000)."

"Whichever policing action is chosen, the PCN-ingress-node SHOULD log
the event and MAY also raise an alarm. Alarms SHOULD be rate-limited
so that the anomalous packets will not amplify into a flood of alarm messag=
es."

You're right. When we wrote this point in the architecture I think we
were only thinking about blocked flows. I don't think that text was
intended to catch packets that had never even asked to be admitted
(i.e. mistakes or attacks).

>Does this require an "Errata" atatement for RFC5559 (I'm not an expert on
>editing RFCs and may be wrong here)?

You're right that something needs doing about this statement in the
architecture. We could say in 3-in-1 that it updates RFC5559. That
would require an extra section in 3-in-1 saying exactly which part of
the architecture it updates.

I prefer your erratum suggestion because it flags the problem in the
doc that now needs clarifying, so it's more likely to be noticed by
people reading the deprecated text. But we'll have to see whether
this would be accepted as an erratum. The relevant rule is #7 here:
<http://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/errata-processing.html>

"Changes that modify the working of a protocol to something that
might be different from the intended consensus when the document was
approved should be either Hold for Document Update or Rejected.
Deciding between these two depends on judgment. Changes that are
clearly modifications to the intended consensus, or involve large
textual changes, should be Rejected. In unclear situations, small
changes can be Hold for Document Update. "

If we wrote an erratum to RFC5559, it would be legitimate, because
the para you have quoted has two contradictory statements in it
anyway. I doubt an erratum can refer to an RFC published later
(3-in-1), because errata are meant to correct what the document
should have said at the time. I think we could compose an erratum
that resolved the contradiction in that paragraph while at the same
time making it "not inconsistent" with what we now want to say in 3-in-1.

Scott, can you advise?


Bob

Yes, when I realised this could be a mistake or an attack, I realised
remarking the DSCP was the right approach to recommend, because it
allows the operator to control this as part of their general DSCP
re-marking policy.

BTW, the default of "re-mark to zero", was merely so /implementers/
have a default. It's not intended to be the recommended policy for operator=
s.

Good catch. In fact, an alert for an attack is also worth suggesting.
I suggest the following text after "...re-mark the DSCP to zero (000000)."

"Whichever policing action is chosen, the PCN-ingress-node SHOULD log
the event and MAY also raise an alarm. Alarms SHOULD be rate-limited
so that the anomalous packets will not amplify into a flood of alarm messag=
es."

You're right. When we wrote this point in the architecture I think we
were only thinking about blocked flows. I don't think that text was
intended to catch packets that had never even asked to be admitted
(i.e. mistakes or attacks).

>Does this require an "Errata" atatement for RFC5559 (I'm not an expert on
>editing RFCs and may be wrong here)?

You're right that something needs doing about this statement in the
architecture. We could say in 3-in-1 that it updates RFC5559. That
would require an extra section in 3-in-1 saying exactly which part of
the architecture it updates.

I prefer your erratum suggestion because it flags the problem in the
doc that now needs clarifying, so it's more likely to be noticed by
people reading the deprecated text. But we'll have to see whether
this would be accepted as an erratum. The relevant rule is #7 here:
<http://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/errata-processing.html>

"Changes that modify the working of a protocol to something that
might be different from the intended consensus when the document was
approved should be either Hold for Document Update or Rejected.
Deciding between these two depends on judgment. Changes that are
clearly modifications to the intended consensus, or involve large
textual changes, should be Rejected. In unclear situations, small
changes can be Hold for Document Update. "

If we wrote an erratum to RFC5559, it would be legitimate, because
the para you have quoted has two contradictory statements in it
anyway. I doubt an erratum can refer to an RFC published later
(3-in-1), because errata are meant to correct what the document
should have said at the time. I think we could compose an erratum
that resolved the contradiction in that paragraph while at the same
time making it "not inconsistent" with what we now want to say in 3-in-1.

Scott, can you advise?

I'm left wondering what to do with all these remarks, given that we have 
passed not only WGLC but also IESG approval. I will await AD direction. 
The most I can do at this point is surmise that I have erred as editor 
and some of my changes should be backed out.

Michael,

Phil Eardley has suggested this complete re-write, which solves the 
problem you point out, and I think makes the whole thing clearer:
============================================================================
Section 4.2 says:

    o  Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
       indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.
       (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
       admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)

It should say:

    o  Police - drop or re-mark to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate
       i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
       belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
       that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.

Notes:

In the existing text the first sentence contradicts the parenthesis. 
It could be interpreted to mean that dropping is the only allowed 
policing action, whereas the parenthesis shows that downgrading was 
also considered appropriate.

Also the existing text used the term 'blocking' as a different action 
to 'downgrading', whereas Section 3.6 just above this text has said 
'"Blocking" means it is dropped or downgraded to a lower-priority 
behaviour aggregate,...'
============================================================================

==Background==
In RFC5559 the term 'block' has been used to mean three different 
actions in two different contexts:

1) Blocking packets:
"  block ECN-capable traffic that uses the same DSCP as PCN from
    entering the PCN-domain directly.  "Blocking" means it is dropped or
    downgraded to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate, or alternatively
    such traffic may be tunnelled through the PCN-domain"

2a) Blocking rejected flows:
"    (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
       admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)"
2b) Blocking flows
"   ...whether to admit or block a new flow..."

So for packets (1), 'block' is defined to mean any of drop, downgrade 
or tunnel, but for rejected flows in this one case (2a) 'block' is 
being used to only mean drop, but throughout the rest of the doc (2b) 
'block' is used as just the opposite of admit, as a general term that 
I assume may be associated with various actions.

Tom,

* The rephrasing of the experiments and MIBs text is editorial trivia 
- up to you whether to listen - but the sort of thing that is often 
handled during AUTH48.

* Replacing references to obsoleted RFC5696 will have to be dealt 
with during RFC-Editor stage anyway, but as the changes are quite 
extensive, it will be worth having the WG check them.

* The ingress behaviour issue can largely be solved by keeping the 
text about flow-policing in these docs but referring out for 
packet-policing: to the new ingress behaviour text in 3-in-1. (On 
this point I did email you on 3-Mar, and re-sent two reminders since. 
But I admit the other points are new.)

* The issue that is most serious is allowing for MPLS as well as IP. 
I've realised it potentially affects 3-in-1 too, but less so (because 
3-in-1 defines itself as the encoding for IP). Sorry about this, such 
an important point, but it only just struck me.


I suggest we take AD direction on just the last point (if you are 
willing to take the other stuff in your stride).


Bob

(Ditto, now that the IESG has no more discusses with 3-in-1, I'm 
getting more WG comments than ever. But at least they are quite benign.)

The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5559,
"Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) Architecture".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5559&eid=3164

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Bob Briscoe <bob.briscoe@bt.com>

Section: 4.2

Original Text
-------------
   o  Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
      indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.
      (A prospective PCN-flow that is rejected could be blocked or
      admitted into a lower-priority behaviour aggregate.)


Corrected Text
--------------
   o  Police - drop or re-mark to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate
      i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
      belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
      that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.


Notes
-----
In the original text the first sentence contradicts the parenthesis. It could be interpreted to mean that dropping is the only allowed policing action, whereas the parenthesis shows that downgrading was also considered appropriate.

Also the original text used the term 'blocking' as a different action to 'downgrading', whereas Section 3.6 just above this text has said '"Blocking" means it is dropped or downgraded to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate,...'

Instructions:
-------------
This errata is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG)
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.

Michael & all,

I've submitted this erratum report. It is likely to be referred to 
the PCN ML anyway.

Hi Bob,

Regarding the rephrased text:
Police - drop or re-mark to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate
      i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
      belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
      that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.

Why should we emphasize the it should be remarked to a lower-priority behav=
iour aggregate?

Is it acceptable to rephrase the text in the following way (another instead=
 of low-priority):
Police - drop or re-mark to another behaviour aggregate
      i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
      belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
      that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.

Best regards,
Georgios

Tom,

* The rephrasing of the experiments and MIBs text is editorial trivia
- up to you whether to listen - but the sort of thing that is often
handled during AUTH48.

* Replacing references to obsoleted RFC5696 will have to be dealt
with during RFC-Editor stage anyway, but as the changes are quite
extensive, it will be worth having the WG check them.

* The ingress behaviour issue can largely be solved by keeping the
text about flow-policing in these docs but referring out for
packet-policing: to the new ingress behaviour text in 3-in-1. (On
this point I did email you on 3-Mar, and re-sent two reminders since.
But I admit the other points are new.)

* The issue that is most serious is allowing for MPLS as well as IP.
I've realised it potentially affects 3-in-1 too, but less so (because
3-in-1 defines itself as the encoding for IP). Sorry about this, such
an important point, but it only just struck me.


I suggest we take AD direction on just the last point (if you are
willing to take the other stuff in your stride).


Bob

(Ditto, now that the IESG has no more discusses with 3-in-1, I'm
getting more WG comments than ever. But at least they are quite benign.)

Hi Bob,
Regarding the rephrased text:

Police - drop or re-mark to a lower-priority behaviour aggregate
      i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
      belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
      that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.

Why should we mandate that it should be remarked to a lower-priority behavi=
our aggregate?

Is it acceptable to rephrase the text in the following way ("another" inste=
ad of "low-priority"). In my opinion the PCN-ingress-node should be able, d=
epending on a local policy, to either drop the packet or remarked it to ano=
ther behaviour aggregate:

Police - drop or re-mark to another behaviour aggregate
      i) packets received with a DSCP indicating PCN transport that do not
      belong to an admitted flow and ii) packets that are part of a flow
      that asked to be admitted as a PCN-flow but was rejected.


Best regards,
Georgios

-------------
   o  Police - police, by dropping any packets received with a DSCP
      indicating PCN transport that do not belong to an admitted flow.

In the original text the first sentence contradicts the parenthesis. It cou=

Hi Bob,

The reason of emphasizing this request is that the signaling protocol that =
is used to support the PCN signaling between PCN-egree-node to PCN-ingress-=
node  (i.e., draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt ) supports the possibility of=
 having more than one IEAs between the same pair of PCN edge nodes.=20

In this way a requesting individual flow has a higher chance to be admitted=
 to an IEA that is NOT in PCN-admission-state.

This is supported in the following way:=20
When IEA supported by a PCN-ingress-node is in PCN-admission state, then ba=
sed on local policy, a requesting e2e RSVP session (individual flow) should=
 be either rejected or mapped to another IEA that is NOT in PCN-admission-s=
tate.

Best regards,
Georgios

Hi all,



>From what I can recall the edge behavior drafts could proceed with their pu=
blication based on the assumption that the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn will b=
e standardized in tsvwg.

Due to some changes that are being implemented lately the validity of two m=
ain assumptions in the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn might not hold anymore.
However, this is not clear to me.
I hope that the validity of the following two main assumptions considered i=
n draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn are still valid, without breaking the PCN SM an=
d CL edge behavior specifications:

Assumption 1: More than one IEAs between same pair of PCN edge nodes should=
 be supported, each of them using a different PHB-ID value
Why?: A requesting individual flow has a higher chance to be admitted to an=
 IEA that is NOT in PCN-admission-state
How? When IEA supported by a PCN-ingress-node is in PCN-admission state, th=
en based on local policy, requesting e2e RSVP session (individual flow) sho=
uld be either rejected or mapped to another IEA that is NOT in PCN-admissio=
n-state

Assumption 2: PCN-ingress-node should be able to reduce bandwidth of an ind=
ividual flow without terminating the flow
Why?: flows will not be terminated unnecessary and at the same time the IEA=
 bandwidth is reduced to solve the severe congestion
How?: When for IEA supported by PCN-ingress-node incoming traffic needs to =
be reduced then:
based on a local policy and for same IEA, selects a number of e2e RSVP sess=
ions (individual flows) to be either terminated or reserved bandwidth of e2=
e RSVP sessions (individual flows) is reduced

If these assumptions are not valid anymore then we might need to do changes=
 in the not yet published PCN drafts!

Best regards,
Georgios

this looks correct to me and I think it should be accepted

Georgios,

Indeed. I would have rather said *another* BA, not a *lower* BA. 
However, that would have changed rather than just clarified what 
RFC5559 originally said. Then it would probably not be allowed as an 
erratum and would instead require an update to the architecture RFC.

Ie., the proposed wording is not ideal, but it's expedient. I'd 
rather not risk the delay that would result if the erratum were rejected.

Cheers


Bob

BTW, I've changed the subject line to the thread I think this was 
intended to be part of - you had replied to one thread but talked 
about another.

It's Quite a while since I read the edge behavior docs but I don't understa=
nd these assumptions. An iea is ask the traffic between two boundary nodes,=
 what's the idea of several? The pcn architecture talks about admission con=
trol and flow termination, flow slowing is an interesting idea but seems di=
fferent to me

Hi all,



>From what I can recall the edge behavior drafts could proceed with their pu=
blication based on the assumption that the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn will b=
e standardized in tsvwg.

Due to some changes that are being implemented lately the validity of two m=
ain assumptions in the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn might not hold anymore.
However, this is not clear to me.
I hope that the validity of the following two main assumptions considered i=
n draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn are still valid, without breaking the PCN SM an=
d CL edge behavior specifications:

Assumption 1: More than one IEAs between same pair of PCN edge nodes should=
 be supported, each of them using a different PHB-ID value
Why?: A requesting individual flow has a higher chance to be admitted to an=
 IEA that is NOT in PCN-admission-state
How? When IEA supported by a PCN-ingress-node is in PCN-admission state, th=
en based on local policy, requesting e2e RSVP session (individual flow) sho=
uld be either rejected or mapped to another IEA that is NOT in PCN-admissio=
n-state

Assumption 2: PCN-ingress-node should be able to reduce bandwidth of an ind=
ividual flow without terminating the flow
Why?: flows will not be terminated unnecessary and at the same time the IEA=
 bandwidth is reduced to solve the severe congestion
How?: When for IEA supported by PCN-ingress-node incoming traffic needs to =
be reduced then:
based on a local policy and for same IEA, selects a number of e2e RSVP sess=
ions (individual flows) to be either terminated or reserved bandwidth of e2=
e RSVP sessions (individual flows) is reduced

If these assumptions are not valid anymore then we might need to do changes=
 in the not yet published PCN drafts!

Best regards,
Georgios

I would certainly assume that, for the purposes of controlling pre-congestio=
n, an iea consists of all PCN traffic between a given Ingress and egress.

If that aggregate is considered as a single flow then in effect flow termina=
tion of some of the constituent flows is a form of flow slowing. But PCN has=
 no actual mechanism for flow slowing (except the proposals for leaking the m=
arks to the end systems).

Hi Phil,=20

The first assumption actuallu allows the possibility of having more than on=
e PCN aware behaviour aggregates being supported between two edge nodes. I =
think that this is/was not precluded from the current specs.
Or I am wrong?

The second assumption regarding flow slowing is new, but in my opinion was/=
is not precluded from the current specs.=20
Or I am wrong?
Note that the goal of flow termination, which is to reduce the bandwidth as=
sociated with one PCN aware behaviour aggregate is not changed in order to =
solve the congestion, i.e., it remains valid.=20
So the assumption allows the possibility of instead of terminating flows re=
duce the bandwidth of some flows and achieve the same goal!

Best regards

Hi all,

Due to some changes that are being implemented lately the validity of two m=

surely we're trying to finish the work off, rather than opening up new func=
tionality?

'not being precluded' is very different from 'will try to support'!

on your first suggestion:
I'm not sure what you mean by 'more than one PCN aware behaviour aggregate =
between two edge nodes'. If you mean, several forwarding priorities I'd dis=
agree; if you mean several DSCPs each with the same fwding priority, not su=
re I understand the use case; if you mean ECMP - maybe, but I don't underst=
and what solution you're thinking of (is it something in http://www.bobbris=
coe.net/projects/ipe2eqos/pcn/papers/draft-briscoe-tsvwg-cl-architecture-04=
.txt or some new idea?)
I'm sceptical, but not sure I understand what your scenario is

on your second point:
we have always said that PCN is for inelastic flows. with your flow slowing=
, this is changing the model. we have always said that flow termination is =
highly unusual action taken in extreme cases when somethng has gone wrong -=
 normally, admission control, plus sensible utilisation, plus flow aggregat=
ion, plus that there is lower priority traffic that can flex, should keep t=
he network in a safe operating region. To me, flow slowing sounds like an o=
ptimisation that isn't worthwhile.=20
So I'm pretty dubious about this one.

thanks,
phil

> I'm sceptical, but not sure I understand what your scenario is

Georgios: What I mean is that it is possible that more than one PCN aware a=
ggregates can be used between two edge. If the policy at the edges does not=
 allow it, then only one PCN aware aggregate between the same pair of edge =
nodes will be used.
What I had to mention is that these two or more PCN aware aggregates will u=
se the same DSCP but will have a different PHB-ID, see Section 2, RFC3140.
This will mean that from the point of view of PCN all these behaviour aggre=
gates that are setup at the edge nodes will use the same (one) PCN-BA.
So the PCN interior nodes will not be aware of the existence of two or more=
 behaviour aggregates.

Regarding the  requested motivating scenario, different scenarios can make =
use of this. The most motivating one is the scenario described in RFC4860:
    =93E2E
   reservations using different preemption priorities (as per
   [RSVP-PREEMP]) need to be aggregated through a Diffserv cloud using
   the same PHB.  Using multiple aggregate reservations for the same PHB
   allows enforcement of the different preemption priorities within the
   aggregation region.  In turn, this allows more efficient management
   of the Diffserv resources, and in periods of resource shortage, this
   allows sustainment of a larger number of E2E reservations with higher
   preemption priorities. For example, [SIG-NESTED] discusses in detail how=
=20
   end-to-end RSVP reservations can be established in a nested VPN=20
   environment through RSVP aggregation.=94

Please note that the PCN interior nodes are not aware of the existence of t=
wo or more behaviour aggregates at the edge nodes.

Georgios: Using RFC 4495, the reduction of the bandwidth of an individual f=
low at the PCN-ingress-node can be done immediately.=20
So from the point of view of the delay in decreasing the total amount of ba=
ndwidth for an aggregate, can be observed that:

o) the situation where a PCN-ingress-node reduces the bandwidth of a 100kb/=
s flow to 50kb/s (belonging to one aggregate) is the same as the situation =
that a PCN-ingress-node terminates one 50kb/s flow when two 50kb/s flows be=
long to the same aggregate.

In other words, the time it takes to terminate a flow is equal (under certa=
in bounds) to the time it takes to reduce the bandwidth of a flow.

Best regards,
Georgios

Hi Phil,

The first assumption actuallu allows the possibility of having more than on=
e PCN aware behaviour aggregates being supported between two edge nodes. I =
think that this is/was not precluded from the current specs.
Or I am wrong?

The second assumption regarding flow slowing is new, but in my opinion was/=
is not precluded from the current specs.
Or I am wrong?
Note that the goal of flow termination, which is to reduce the bandwidth as=
sociated with one PCN aware behaviour aggregate is not changed in order to =
solve the congestion, i.e., it remains valid.
So the assumption allows the possibility of instead of terminating flows re=
duce the bandwidth of some flows and achieve the same goal!

Hi all,



>From what I can recall the edge behavior drafts could proceed with their pu=
blication based on the assumption that the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn will b=
e standardized in tsvwg.

Due to some changes that are being implemented lately the validity of two m=
ain assumptions in the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn might not hold anymore.
However, this is not clear to me.
I hope that the validity of the following two main assumptions considered i=
n draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn are still valid, without breaking the PCN SM an=
d CL edge behavior specifications:

Assumption 1: More than one IEAs between same pair of PCN edge nodes should=
 be supported, each of them using a different PHB-ID value
Why?: A requesting individual flow has a higher chance to be admitted to an=
 IEA that is NOT in PCN-admission-state
How? When IEA supported by a PCN-ingress-node is in PCN-admission state, th=
en based on local policy, requesting e2e RSVP session (individual flow) sho=
uld be either rejected or mapped to another IEA that is NOT in PCN-admissio=
n-state

Assumption 2: PCN-ingress-node should be able to reduce bandwidth of an ind=
ividual flow without terminating the flow
Why?: flows will not be terminated unnecessary and at the same time the IEA=
 bandwidth is reduced to solve the severe congestion
How?: When for IEA supported by PCN-ingress-node incoming traffic needs to =
be reduced then:
based on a local policy and for same IEA, selects a number of e2e RSVP sess=
ions (individual flows) to be either terminated or reserved bandwidth of e2=
e RSVP sessions (individual flows) is reduced

If these assumptions are not valid anymore then we might need to do changes=
 in the not yet published PCN drafts!

Note that due to the above changes, the specification provided in Section 3=
.11 of draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt regarding flow termination needs to=
 be modified. In particular, it is needed to specify that for the situation=
 that the Aggregator/ingress needs to terminate an amount of traffic associ=
ated tone PCN IEA, it must be able to know: (1) which RSVP generic aggregat=

Assumption 1
thanks for this.
note you don't need to change the definition of IEA - just use the definiti=
on it already has (in PCN architecture)

Assumption 2
please can you point me the right bit of 4860 - about reducing the reserved=
 bandwidth of individual rsvp sessions. couldnt find it immediately.
whilst mathematically reducing one 100kb/s flow to 50kb/s is equal to termi=
nating one of two 50kb/s flows - however, it requires the PCN decision node=
 to understand that the current 100kb/s inelstic flow has another state whe=
re it can operate as a 50kb/s inelsatic flow. it seems to me this requires =
significantly more complexity (state at decision point, decision making pro=
cess, possibly signalling etc).=20
Again: termination is supposed to be a 'quick and dirty' function when some=
thing has gone wrong.

Anyway, having slept on our chat at the social, I suggest a way forward is =
the following.
The draft should define signalling for the scope of PCN, as it's been assum=
ed so far, ie don't mention these two assumptions. This enables PCN to be f=
inished.
These two extra assumptions are things that should be invisible to PCN - it=
's just fine-grained information hiding within the policy and decision func=
tions. For instance, we have never talked about a policy on how the decisio=
n point should decide which flows to terminate (just how much it needs to t=
erminate) - it could choose randomly, it could choose the most recently est=
ablished, it could choose the customers who are least important etc. I thin=
k your 'flow slowing' is just another piece of policy that PCN doesn't need=
 to talk about. (You could actually say the same thing about assumption 1)

in passing, note that PCN is about PCN-flows. RFC5559 defines:-
   o  PCN-flow: the unit of PCN-traffic that the PCN-boundary-node
      admits (or terminates); the unit could be a single microflow (as
      defined in [RFC2474]) or some identifiable collection of
      microflows.

since your draft needs to cover the relationship of the e2e signalling & PC=
N, you need to explain the relationship between the e2e rsvp flows and pcn-=
flows. i suggest you pick the easiest case, which i presume is a 1:1 mappin=
g.

anyway, going back to my original comments -
you can delete the one about many-to-one mapping (now you're deleting assum=
ption 1)
but i think the others still apply.

thanks
phil

How?: When for IEA supported by PCN-ingress-node incoming traffic needs to =
be reduced then:
based on a local policy and for same IEA, selects using the features provid=
ed by RFC 4860 a number of inelastic e2e RSVP sessions (individual flows) t=
o be either terminated or reserved bandwidth of the inelastic e2e RSVP sess=
ions (individual flows) is reduced.

Note that due to the above changes, the specification provided in Section 3=
.11 of draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt regarding flow termination needs to=
 be modified. In particular, it is needed to specify that for the situation=
 that the Aggregator/ingress needs to terminate an amount of traffic associ=
ated tone PCN IEA, it must be able to know: (1) which RSVP generic aggregat=
ed resevation states (associated with this PCN IEA) will be selected and (2=
) which individual flows belonging to these selected  sates will either be =
terminated or their bandwidth will be reduced.

Note that using RFC 4495, the reduction of the bandwidth of an individual f=
low at the PCN-ingress-node can be done immediately.
So from the point of view of the delay in decreasing the total amount of ba=
ndwidth for an PCN IEA, can be observed that:
o) the situation where a PCN-ingress-node reduces the bandwidth of a 100kb/=
s flow to 50kb/s (belonging to one aggregate) is the same as the situation =
that a PCN-ingress-node terminates one 50kb/s flow when two 50kb/s flows be=
long to the same aggregate.
In other words, the time it takes to terminate a flow is equal (under certa=
in bounds) to the time it takes to reduce the bandwidth of a flow.

I think the two most important points to remember are:

1) The IESG wants to close the PCN working group (and I for one think =
that seems sensible)

2) This signalling document is meant to be one of the core building =
blocks that can be bolted together to create a PCN-based admission =
system. As such it should be written with as few assumptions as =
possible, and certainly should not be adding new concepts that were =
never in the original PCN charter.=20

Georgios: RFC 4860 uses RFC 4495 to do the reduction of bandwidth. The Aggr=
egator is already informed before hand about how much bandwidth should be r=
educed from certain individual flows. So the Aggregator can reduce the band=
width of these flows at the moment that an amount of bandwidth needs to be =
reduced from the IEA. This is similar to the situation that a flow needs to=
 be terminated and the Aggregator reduces the complete allocated bandwidth =
of that flow.

Georgios: Okay, great!=20
So your suggestion is to describe in the draft the situation that the sever=
e congestion is solved by terminating flows. As an addition to that,  the d=
raft will emphasize that in some situations different policies can be used =
to solve the severe congestion, where instead of terminating the complete b=
andwidth allocated to one or more flows and by using the mechanisms specifi=
ed by RFC4680 and RFC 4495, only a percentage of the bandwidth allocated to=
 one or more flows will be reduced.

Georgios: The mapping of e2e rsvp flows to pcn-flows is a one-to-one mappin=
g.=20
However the mapping of the RSVP generic aggregated reservation states to th=
e PCN IEA is a many-to-one mapping.

Subject: [PCN] dropping assumption 1 for draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt (=
assumption 2 needed)

Hi all,

In order to satisfy the comments received up to now I am willing to provide=
 the following changes in the draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn.

Proposed change:
Each ingress-egress pair supports only one ingress-egress aggregate. This i=
s identical to what any PCN specification specifies.

The Aggregator (ingress), and DeAggregator (egress) however, can support mo=
re than one RSVP generic aagregated reservation state belonging to the same=
 PHB, see RFC4860. The RSVP generic aggregated resevation states that are m=
aintained between the same pair of ingress-egress will use the PCN-BA, whic=
h is actually using the same PHB as these RSVP generic aggregated states.

This means that all these RSVP generic aggregated reservation states will u=
se the same PCN admission control procedure, since they will use the same P=
CN-BA in the PCN domain.

Note that the definition that is given for IEA in draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn=
-01.txt needs  to be modifed to satisfy the above. Moreover, the last rule =
given in Section 3.1 that is associated with the admission control procedur=
e needs to be modified to address the fact that all the RSVP generic aggreg=
ated resevation states will use the same PCN admission control procedure.
So assumption 1, listed in a previous email does not need to be supported a=
nymore!

What is still remaining is the need of having assumption 2 supported:

PCN-ingress-node should be able to reduce bandwidth of an individual flow w=
ithout terminating the flow

Why?: flows will not be terminated unnecessary and at the same time the IEA=
 bandwidth is reduced to solve the severe congestion
How?: When for IEA supported by PCN-ingress-node incoming traffic needs to =
be reduced then:
based on a local policy and for same IEA, selects using the features provid=
ed by RFC 4860 a number of inelastic e2e RSVP sessions (individual flows) t=
o be either terminated or reserved bandwidth of the inelastic e2e RSVP sess=
ions (individual flows) is reduced.

Note that due to the above changes, the specification provided in Section 3=
.11 of draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-pcn-01.txt regarding flow termination needs to=
 be modified. In particular, it is needed to specify that for the situation=
 that the Aggregator/ingress needs to terminate an amount of traffic associ=
ated tone PCN IEA, it must be able to know: (1) which RSVP generic aggregat=
ed resevation states (associated with this PCN IEA) will be selected and (2=
) which individual flows belonging to these selected  sates will either be =
terminated or their bandwidth will be reduced.

Note that using RFC 4495, the reduction of the bandwidth of an individual f=
low at the PCN-ingress-node can be done immediately.
So from the point of view of the delay in decreasing the total amount of ba=
ndwidth for an PCN IEA, can be observed that:
o) the situation where a PCN-ingress-node reduces the bandwidth of a 100kb/=
s flow to 50kb/s (belonging to one aggregate) is the same as the situation =
that a PCN-ingress-node terminates one 50kb/s flow when two 50kb/s flows be=
long to the same aggregate.
In other words, the time it takes to terminate a flow is equal (under certa=
in bounds) to the time it takes to reduce the bandwidth of a flow.


Best regards,
Georgios

Georgios

on your assumption 2 about slowing a flow rather than terminating it.

you said that the necessary functionality is already in rfc4495
its abstract says:

In such cases,
   when the entire bandwidth allocated to a reservation is not required,
   the reservation need not be torn down.  The solution described in
   this document allows endpoints to negotiate a new (lower) bandwidth
   that falls at or below the specified new bandwidth maximum allocated
   by the network.=20

this is not the same function. this is about negotiating a new lower bandwi=
dth. the functionality you need is for the PCN decision point to understand=
 in advance that there is a lower rate(s) to which the flow could be reduce=
d if necessary (and both rates are inelastic)

If you DO feel there is a need for more cases then that should go in as a (=

And remember, so long as this document is crafted correctly (using 2119 lan=

the question I was trying to raise at the mike earlier is this:-

at the moment the draft is written as an extension to generic aggregated rs=
vp. Is it possible to write an extension that works as a PCN extension for =
either /both aggregated rsvp or generic aggregated rsvp? that would widen i=
ts applicability.=20
(Unless in practice only generic aggregated is used and aggregated rsvp isn=
't used??)

may well be that this is a stupid suggestion!

Hi Phil,

Section 2 of RFC 4495 explains that during the re-reservation request perio=
d of time no packets will traverse the "affected"" aggregate  (which contai=
ns the individual flows whose bandwidth needs to be reduced), until it is r=
eestablished. So during that time no packets (belonging to the individual f=
lows whose bandwidth needs to be reduced) will traverse the PCN domain unti=
l it is reestablished. See the text copied from Section2 of RFC 4495.


--// --
   This specification makes it possible for the ResvErr message to
   indicate that 20 units are still available for a reservation to
   remain up (the interface's 100 units maximum minus Flow 2's 80
   units).  The reservation initiating node (router or end-system) for
   Flow 1 has the opportunity to renegotiate (via call signaling) for
   acceptable parameters within the existing and available bandwidth for
   the flow (for example, it may decide to change to using a codec such
   as G.729)
--//--

During the re-reservation request period of time no packets will
   traverse the aggregate until it is reestablished.
      - reduces the chances that the reestablishment of the aggregate
        will reserve an inefficient amount of bandwidth, causing the
        likely preemption of more individual flows at the aggregator
        than would be necessary had the aggregator had more information
        (that RSVP does not provide at this time)
-//=3D=3D

Best regards,
Georgios

Hi Phil,

This is a good question!

The answer is the following:
By using RFC4860 you could actually deploy both scenarios:

1) Use RFC4860 and configure it to only support only one to one mapping bet=
ween one RSVP generic aggregated state to one PCN IEA (so only one RSVP agg=
regated state is using one PHB). In this case exactly the same functionalit=
y is achieved as when using the Aggregated RSVP (RFC3175). This is the basi=
c functionality that RFC4860 can provide which is the functionality support=
ed by RFC3175.

2) Use RFC4860 and configure it to support more than one to one mapping bet=
ween more than one RSVP generic aggregated state to one PCN IEA (so more th=
an one RSVP aggregated states are using one PHB). . In this way the additio=
nal features of RFC4860, including bandwidth reduction of the individual fl=
ows, can be supported.


Best regards,
Georgios

your point 1) says that rfc4860 can operate in a basic mode where it provid=
es the same as 3175.

actually my question was whether you can define a PCN extension that can be=
 applied to both 3175 and 4860. that would increase the applicability.

Hi Phil,

I am not sure, but I expect that in this case the specification of the PCN =
extension will become somehow complicated, since it will have to include a =
clear description of when some features are using RFC3175 and when the same=
 features are using RFC4860. I would like to continue using as the basis fo=
r this PCN extension, the RFC4860.  If this is work is completed and if the=
re is a need, we could discuss then what the next steps will be!


Best regards,
Georgios

vp. Is it possible to write an extension that works as a PCN extension for =
either /both aggregated rsvp or generic aggregated rsvp? that would widen i=
ts applicability.
(Unless in practice only generic aggregated is used and aggregated rsvp isn=
't used??)

may well be that this is a stupid suggestion!

thanks

[adding tsvwg mailing list]

ok, so RFC4495 says that during re-reservation request period no packets tr=
averse the aggregate until it is re-established.=20

to me, from a PCN perspective, this sounds like the PCN-flow has been termi=
nated and then there is admission control for a new request

best wishes,

phil

Hi Phil,

Section 2 of RFC 4495 explains that during the re-reservation request perio=
d of time no packets will traverse the "affected"" aggregate  (which contai=
ns the individual flows whose bandwidth needs to be reduced), until it is r=
eestablished. So during that time no packets (belonging to the individual f=
lows whose bandwidth needs to be reduced) will traverse the PCN domain unti=
l it is reestablished. See the text copied from Section2 of RFC 4495.


--// --
   This specification makes it possible for the ResvErr message to
   indicate that 20 units are still available for a reservation to
   remain up (the interface's 100 units maximum minus Flow 2's 80
   units).  The reservation initiating node (router or end-system) for
   Flow 1 has the opportunity to renegotiate (via call signaling) for
   acceptable parameters within the existing and available bandwidth for
   the flow (for example, it may decide to change to using a codec such
   as G.729)
--//--

During the re-reservation request period of time no packets will
   traverse the aggregate until it is reestablished.
      - reduces the chances that the reestablishment of the aggregate
        will reserve an inefficient amount of bandwidth, causing the
        likely preemption of more individual flows at the aggregator
        than would be necessary had the aggregator had more information
        (that RSVP does not provide at this time)
-//=3D=3D

Best regards,
Georgios

Georgios

on your assumption 2 about slowing a flow rather than terminating it.

you said that the necessary functionality is already in rfc4495
its abstract says:

In such cases,
   when the entire bandwidth allocated to a reservation is not required,
   the reservation need not be torn down.  The solution described in
   this document allows endpoints to negotiate a new (lower) bandwidth
   that falls at or below the specified new bandwidth maximum allocated
   by the network.

this is not the same function. this is about negotiating a new lower bandwi=
dth. the functionality you need is for the PCN decision point to understand=
 in advance that there is a lower rate(s) to which the flow could be reduce=
d if necessary (and both rates are inelastic)

I think the two most important points to remember are:

1) The IESG wants to close the PCN working group (and I for one think that =
seems sensible)

2) This signalling document is meant to be one of the core building blocks =
that can be bolted together to create a PCN-based admission system. As such=
 it should be written with as few assumptions as possible, and certainly sh=
ould not be adding new concepts that were never in the original PCN charter=
.

If you DO feel there is a need for more cases then that should go in as a (=
very short) appendix.

And remember, so long as this document is crafted correctly (using 2119 lan=
guage carefully) it can include your assumptions without ever needing to st=

flow-slowing you could put that in as an individual draft to TSWWG once PCN=
