As Manav has separately answered, that is our intention.  However, as
discussion among the authors has shown we still have a little way to go to
define what the remote IP address will be in various scenarios.  One example
scenario is unnumbered IP interfaces.  

A second example is when a link is provisioned with 802.1q - which VLANs
address do we use, if any?  The authors are adding some text in the upcoming
-05 to attempt to discuss this case.

Thanks for your comment.  RFC 6428 does provide some clear examples about
how the mechanism there can provide mis-connectivity diagnostics.  In the
current version of the draft, -04, LACP is used to provide the
mis-connectivity verification.  The draft, however, also provides for the
ability to use the feature in the absence of LACP and it's worth considering
how connectivity errors can be diagnosed in that mode.

At this time I'd suggest that the text remain as it is.  We can continue to
explore connectivity verification in the absence of LACP in future versions
of the draft with input from the working group.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection Workin=
g Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Authenticating BFD using HMAC-SHA-2 procedures
	Author(s)       : Dacheng Zhang
                          Manav Bhatia
                          Vishwas Manral
	Filename        : draft-ietf-bfd-hmac-sha-01.txt
	Pages           : 10
	Date            : 2012-07-02

Abstract:
   This document describes the mechanism to authenticate Bidirectional
   Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol packets using Hashed Message
   Authentication Mode (HMAC) with the SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
   algorithms.  The mechanism described uses the Generic Cryptographic
   Authentication and Generic Meticulous Cryptographic Authentication
   sections to carry the authentication data.  This document updates,
   but does not supercede, the cryptographic authentication mechanism
   specified in RFC 5880.

Hi Manav,

I understand that micro BFD session packets go with unicast ip
addresses. The question is that how will i figure out the IP to fill
in the micro BFD packets?

Working Group,

We shall be meeting at the upcoming IETF 84 session in Vancouver, Canada.
This is a call for presentations for the working group session.  

Since the majority of the working group focus has been over the BFD over
Ethernet LAG feature, we will be reserving a 30 minute time slot for update
and discussion on this feature.  Note that this draft is still an individual
submission as we are gated on a response from IEEE regarding this work.  At
the moment, that token is waiting on AD review of the chairs proposed
response to IEEE. (Ahem!)

Similar to prior WG sessions, we would request that presentations be
completed several days prior so they can be uploaded to the datatracker.
This will let the session be most efficiently used for discussion rather
than reading the slides aloud.

For documents that are refreshes with minor changes and don't require a full
presentation, authors are encouraged to provide a slide for the meeting
materials but need not present unless there is desire for discussion.

Finally, I'd like to encourage the WG to spend a little focus on the BFD MIB
documents.  The base MIB has been re-published and needs some audit work
against the new WG item for the MIB for BFD for MPLS(-TP).  As noted in
prior e-mail threads, the WG doesn't have a requirement from ITU-T to
provide read-write access to such a MIB, but there has been support of a
writeable MIB from within the WG.  This means that read-create objects in
the MPLS MIB must have appropriate read-create coverage of supporting rows
in the base MIB.

-- Jeff and Dave.

Dear Editors, Authors, et al.
Please find couple of questions from me to the lastest version of micro-BFD=
 draft:
*       Introduction "... (3) and would be able to verify L3 connectivity p=
er member link."
Since BFD is encapsulation independent to monitor path continuity, ability =
to verify L3 continuity is result of using IP encapsulation. It is possible=
 to use GAL/G-ACh encapsulation, per RFC 5586, Section 4, with GAL being th=
e only MPLS label in the label stack. But introduction of MPLS layer in mon=
itoring LAG's member links might as well introduce defects that are not rel=
ated to Ethernet layer. That same, IMO, is true for L3.
*       Introduction. "The goal is to verify link connectivity for every me=
mber link."
If the goal is to monitor connectivity, then we need to define mis-connecti=
vity defects, entry and exit criterias accordingly.
*       Section 2.3 There seems to be a contradiction in the last para rega=
rding tagging micro BFD control packets. Consider the very first sentence "=
Micro BFD packets MUST always be sent untagged." And further down "It is RE=
COMMENDED that micro BFD packets should always be sent untagged." So, is it=
 thou SHOULD tag micro BFD packets?
*       Section 3.1
I think that characterization of BFD in the second para "BFD, as a layer 3 =
protocol" is not correct. BFD is encapsulation and hence layer independent =
protocol to monitor path continuity (bi-directional as of now and uni-direc=
tional very soon) at layer defined by type of encapsulation used.
*       And one more question. Consider that a micro BFD session went down =
on one of member links. If LACP is present, then, according to Section 3.1,=
 micro BFD on that link should be put in Passive mode until LACP determines=
 that "a link is suitable for aggregation within its selected LAG and has c=
ompleted negotiations with the partner device so as to bring that link to D=
istributing state ...". Is that correct understanding?

        Regards,
                Greg

I am afraid i dont understand the comment. Are you suggesting that using 
L3 encapsulation can not catch errors in ethernet layer?

Again, i dont understand this. What do you mean by entry and exit criterias?

Will replace the text to say that Micro BFD packets SHOULD always be 
sent untagged.

Do you have any replacement text in mind?

Yes.

The idea is that the micro BFD sessions will not influence LACP. We will 
let LACP follow its usual state machine. The link will only be used for 
L3 forwarding once the micro BFD sessions are UP. In the presence of 
LACP, the micro sessions only become active once LACP enters the 
Distributing state.

Hi Toms,

The IP address of the remote end needs to be explicitly configured.

If you dont want to manually configure the IP addresses then you can 
look at draft-mmsn-bfd-on-lags-address-00.txt to see how this IP address 
can be dynamically discovered.

Cheers, Manav

I am afraid i dont understand the comment. Are you suggesting that using
L3 encapsulation can not catch errors in ethernet layer?

Again, i dont understand this. What do you mean by entry and exit criterias=
?

GIM>> Defect's entry criteria defines what actually constitutes beginning o=
f the state of defect. Defect's exit criteria defines what constitues clear=
ing of particular defect. For example, entry criteria for Loss of Continuit=
y is expiration of a timer associated with far end; exit criteria for Loss =
of Continuity defect, e.g. as defined in RFC 6428, "occurs upon receipt of =
a well-formed BFD control packet from the peer MEP".

Will replace the text to say that Micro BFD packets SHOULD always be sent u=

Do you have any replacement text in mind?

BFD with IP encapsulation, as layer 3 protocol, ..."

Yes.

The idea is that the micro BFD sessions will not influence LACP. We will le=
t LACP follow its usual state machine. The link will only be used for
L3 forwarding once the micro BFD sessions are UP. In the presence of LACP, =
the micro sessions only become active once LACP enters the Distributing sta=
te.

Are you suggesting that we DON'T use IP encapsulation for micro BFD packets=
? I believe we had discussed the pros and cons of using IP encap vis-a-vis =
other encaps in the WG and this was the consensus that everyone had eventua=
lly arrived at.

I would wager that the entry and exit criteron for micro BFD would be the s=

Sure, I have no issues with this text. Will update it as long as my co-auth=

Hi Manav,
Just couple more comments in-lined and tagged by GIM>>>> this time.

GIM>> I don't see point 3, use of IP encapsulation, as benefit but rather a=
s potential source of defects not related to LAG itself.

Are you suggesting that we DON'T use IP encapsulation for micro BFD packets=
? I believe we had discussed the pros and cons of using IP encap vis-a-vis =
other encaps in the WG and this was the consensus that everyone had eventua=
lly arrived at.

GIM>>>> No, I'm not suggesting not to use IP encapsulation of BFD but I'm s=
uggesting thoroughly document what could be implications of using IP encaps=
ulation of BFD to monitor Layer 2 path.

GIM>> Defect's entry criteria defines what actually constitutes beginning o=
f the state of defect. Defect's exit criteria defines what constitues clear=
ing of particular defect. For example, entry criteria for Loss of Continuit=
y is expiration of a timer associated with far end; exit criteria for Loss =
of Continuity defect, e.g. as defined in RFC 6428, "occurs upon receipt of =
a well-formed BFD control packet from the peer MEP".

I would wager that the entry and exit criteron for micro BFD would be the s=
ame as the regular rfc 5881 BFD. Why would this be any different?

GIM>>>> As I've noted earlier, many BFD related document use term "connecti=
vity" when in fact discussing "continuity". But these are not the same, not=
 identical. If the draft we're discussing uses "connectivity" in place of"c=
ontinuity", then a note with explanation should, IMHO, suffice. But if inte=
ntion is to go beyond RFC 5880 and monitor connectivity, then mis-connectio=
n defects have to be defined.

[clipped]

> Do you have any replacement text in mind?

GIM>> Perhaps the following: "BFD, as media independent protocol, ..." or "=
BFD with IP encapsulation, as layer 3 protocol, ..."

Sure, I have no issues with this text. Will update it as long as my co-auth=
ors don't raise any objections with this.

Cheers, Manav

Sure this should be done. We can take it up as an additional draft so 
that we dont stall the progress of this one. This is precisely why we 
kept the mechanism to dynamically learn the remote IP addresses in a 
separate draft (draft-mmsn-bfd-on-lags-address-00.txt).

We can also later explore the possibility of merging these drafts into 
the main draft, if thats the WG consensus then.

Would s/connectivity/continuity help? :-)

Hi Manav,
Glad we're converging.
Certainly the editorial changes you've proposing will address my concern.
But I frankly don't see need for a separate document just to express my con=
cern regarding use of IP encapsulation. Simple sentense like "Use of IP enc=
apsulation may introduce Layer 3 defects that be positive negatives to moni=
tored LAG." would be sufficient IMHO.

        Regards,
                Greg

Sure this should be done. We can take it up as an additional draft so that =
we dont stall the progress of this one. This is precisely why we kept the m=
echanism to dynamically learn the remote IP addresses in a separate draft (=
draft-mmsn-bfd-on-lags-address-00.txt).

We can also later explore the possibility of merging these drafts into the =
main draft, if thats the WG consensus then.

Would s/connectivity/continuity help? :-)

Hi Greg,

I hear you when you say that using IP encapsulation for monitoring link sta=
tus could give a few false positives/negatives. However, i am wondering if =
its a practical concern. Since all micro BFD sessions are single hop, the p=
ackets will get dropped if they get rerouted out of some other IP interface=
, in effect bringing the micro BFD session down. I, on my part, am unable t=
o envisage a scenario when using L3 encap could lead to a false negative/po=
sitive. Do you have a scenario or a sequence of events in mind which can de=
monstrate the fate of a micro session and the real link status diverging?

Isnt the argument akin to saying that ISIS can introduce false positives si=
nce its riding on top of Layer 2?

Please note that i have no issues in adding the text that you have suggeste=
d. I am merely ensuring that we all understand why we're adding the text.

Cheers, Manav

Hello BFD experts,

Nobo and me have uploaded a new version of draft-akiya-bfd-intervals, =
mainly fixing some typos and adding one clarification.

We received (unicast) several feedbacks, in general positive. What still =
may require a closer look is:

(i)  the set of Standard Interval values

(ii) the Poll/Final sequence example in Appendix B


Thanks & Regards,
Marc

Hi,

1.
In section 5.2.2, Example of BFD Session configuration for Maintenance Enti=
ty of MPLS-TP TE tunnel, the object mplsOamIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex of the=
 ME table in draft-vkst-mpls-tp-oam-id-mib is not mentioned.
It would be helpful to explain that when a BFD session with bfdMplsSessMapT=
ype=3Dmep(6) is created in the bfdSessTable, the value of the object mplsOa=
mIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex should be updated with the BFD session index.

2.
For the associated bidirectional LSPs case there would be two unidirectiona=
l MEs that together operate the BFD session. To which one of the MEs should=
 the map pointer, bfdMplsSessMapPointer, point?
I think it may point to either one of the unidirectional MEs i.e. make it i=
mplementation specific, but this should be described in the MIB.

3.
The term "session mode" in RFC6428 refers to coordinated operation vs. inde=
pendent operation. However the current object bfdMplsSessMode sets the BFD =
functionality to cc(1) or cv(2). Suggest to rename the object to bfdMplsSes=
sFunction.

4.
There's a need to configure what is the consequent action upon mis-connecti=
vity defect and LOC defect. Possible values: alarm only, alarm and block da=
ta.
Separate configuration for mis-connectivity and for LOC. Default value for =
mis-connectivity is alarm and block data. Default value for LOC is alarm on=
ly.
Maybe a common behavior for all BFD sessions is sufficient. In this case de=
fine two scalar objects.

5.
Suggest to add counters for received and transmitted CC and CV packets. Nee=
d separate counters for CC and CV.


Regards,

Muly

Thanks Manav. This answers my question.

Is there any consensus on the mechanism (multicast or 127/8) that will
be used for remote IP discovery?

Hi,

1.
In section 5.2.2, Example of BFD Session configuration for Maintenance
Entity of MPLS-TP TE tunnel, the object mplsOamIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex of
the ME table in draft-vkst-mpls-tp-oam-id-mib is not mentioned.
It would be helpful to explain that when a BFD session with
bfdMplsSessMapType=mep(6) is created in the bfdSessTable, the value of the
object mplsOamIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex should be updated with the BFD
session index.

[VM] OK

2.
For the associated bidirectional LSPs case there would be two
unidirectional MEs that together operate the BFD session. To which one of
the MEs should the map pointer, bfdMplsSessMapPointer, point?
I think it may point to either one of the unidirectional MEs i.e. make it
implementation specific, but this should be described in the MIB.
[VM] This draft suggests to map each ME of LSP/PW entry with the BFD
session entry, for associated bidirectional case, having an BFD session
entry to point to either one of the unidirectional ME is purely
implementation specific, IMO, nothing needs to be described.

3.
The term "session mode" in RFC6428 refers to coordinated operation vs.
independent operation. However the current object bfdMplsSessMode sets the
BFD functionality to cc(1) or cv(2). Suggest to rename the object to
bfdMplsSessFunction.
[VM] IMO,MIB object for coordinated & independent session mode operation is
not required as we can infer it from bfd.MinRxInterval value 0.

bfdMplsSessMode denotes the BFD message format (CC/CV) to be carried
in the BFD control packet, IMO this MIB object should be retained.

if this MIB object name does not convey the right meaning, we might
need to choose appropriate MIB object name.


4.
There's a need to configure what is the consequent action upon
mis-connectivity defect and LOC defect. Possible values: alarm only, alarm
and block data.
Separate configuration for mis-connectivity and for LOC. Default value for
mis-connectivity is alarm and block data. Default value for LOC is alarm
only.
Maybe a common behavior for all BFD sessions is sufficient. In this case
define two scalar objects.
[VM] OK

5.
Suggest to add counters for received and transmitted CC and CV packets.
Need separate counters for CC and CV.
[VM] OK

Regards,

Muly

Hi Venkat.,

Regarding the 3rd issue, of "session mode". I haven't requested to define a=
 MIB object for the coordinated/independent modes.
I merely suggested to rename "bfdMplsSessMode" to "bfdMplsSessFunction" to =
avoid misunderstandings.

Hi,

1.
In section 5.2.2, Example of BFD Session configuration for Maintenance Enti=
ty of MPLS-TP TE tunnel, the object mplsOamIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex of the=
 ME table in draft-vkst-mpls-tp-oam-id-mib is not mentioned.
It would be helpful to explain that when a BFD session with bfdMplsSessMapT=
ype=3Dmep(6) is created in the bfdSessTable, the value of the object mplsOa=
mIdMeProactiveOamSessIndex should be updated with the BFD session index.

[VM] OK

2.
For the associated bidirectional LSPs case there would be two unidirectiona=
l MEs that together operate the BFD session. To which one of the MEs should=
 the map pointer, bfdMplsSessMapPointer, point?
I think it may point to either one of the unidirectional MEs i.e. make it i=
mplementation specific, but this should be described in the MIB.
[VM] This draft suggests to map each ME of LSP/PW entry with the BFD sessio=
n entry, for associated bidirectional case, having an BFD session entry to =
point to either one of the unidirectional ME is purely implementation speci=
fic, IMO, nothing needs to be described.

3.
The term "session mode" in RFC6428 refers to coordinated operation vs. inde=
pendent operation. However the current object bfdMplsSessMode sets the BFD =
functionality to cc(1) or cv(2). Suggest to rename the object to bfdMplsSes=
sFunction.
[VM] IMO,MIB object for coordinated & independent session mode operation is=
 not required as we can infer it from bfd.MinRxInterval value 0.



bfdMplsSessMode denotes the BFD message format (CC/CV) to be carried in the=
 BFD control packet, IMO this MIB object should be retained.

if this MIB object name does not convey the right meaning, we might need to=
 choose appropriate MIB object name.

4.
There's a need to configure what is the consequent action upon mis-connecti=
vity defect and LOC defect. Possible values: alarm only, alarm and block da=
ta.
Separate configuration for mis-connectivity and for LOC. Default value for =
mis-connectivity is alarm and block data. Default value for LOC is alarm on=
ly.
Maybe a common behavior for all BFD sessions is sufficient. In this case de=
fine two scalar objects.
[VM] OK

5.
Suggest to add counters for received and transmitted CC and CV packets. Nee=
d separate counters for CC and CV.
[VM] OK

Regards,

Muly

Hi Marc, et al.,
I think I'd refer to the set of timer values defined in the
draft-akiya-bfd-intervals as 'Minimally Required Set" rather than as
"Standard".
Second, 3.3 ms interval included in the set for the benefit of MPLS-TP. I'd
note that OAM for packet transport networks would likely to use from set of
intervals defined in IEEE 802.1ag/Y.1731, i.e. [3.3 ms, 10 ms, 100 ms, 1
sec, 10 sec, 1 min, 10 min]. To make two sets more compatible, I propose to
include 100 ms interval into the Minimally Required Set that proposed in
the draft.

Regards,
Greg

I'll be uploading a formal agenda momentarily, but at this point our agenda
is:

- Discuss BFD over LAGs.
- MIB breakout session.

Our agenda is thin enough that we probably should cancel the meeting, but
experience from our last session showed that list feedback on the BFD over
LAG draft didn't reflect room consensus terribly well.  I'd like to give us
the opportunity to discuss this in detail.

The MIB breakout session will not be presentation driven.  People with
interest in the BFD MIBs will be invited to get together in a tight group
and do a review of the MIB objects, operational model, etc.  Think of it as
a pre-MIB Doctor review.

Given the nature of the MIB breakout, our formal agenda is expected to wrap
up very quickly.  Since our conflict list gave us a timeslot of 1.5 hours,
we still have openings for relevant agenda items.  Please send requests to
the list.

 MAC in the micro BFD section.

The current draft says that: When sending BFD packets for the micro BFD ses=
sion
   in the Up state, the MAC address from the received BFD packets for
   the session MUST be used.

Can this be more relaxed in the sense that micro-BFD session could keep usi=
ng the dedicated MAC address during the complete lifetime of the session?

This might make implementations easier.

Cheers,
Wim

[VM] For MPLS-TP case also, we can point to mplsTunnelTable, there is
no restriction enforced in this MIB but in order to satisfy the OAM
requirements of MPLS-TP, it is expected to point to mplsOamIdMeTable.

I'd like to encourage you to consider volunteering for the NomCom if you're
eligible.

Subject: NomCom 2012-2013: Second Call for Volunteers

The NomCom 2012-2013 Call for Volunteers has now passed its halfway point. Therefore, if you are considering volunteering to participate in the 2012-2013 NomCom, please do so soon.

General information on this year's NomCom (including a list of positions to be filled) can be found at: https://www.ietf.org/nomcom/2012/

The success of the NomCom process depends on randomly selecting a committee that is a representative sample of the our community. We endeavor to have a NomCom reflecting the diversity of experience and viewpoints that is our community's greatest strength. However, to achieve this goal we must have the largest possible pool of volunteers that from throughout the IETF community.

I am pleased to report that we have had a strong initial response to the First Call for Volunteers, with 74 qualified individuals agreeing to volunteer their time. I greatly appreciate the generosity and commitment to our community exhibited by all of these individuals. However, the pool of volunteers is not yet as diverse as it should be to reflect the breadth of our community with regards to nationality, gender and organizational affiliation. Therefore, I would especially encourage to volunteer those individuals whose participation would increase the diversity of our volunteer pool.

If you have volunteered before 12:00 noon UTC on July 24, 2012 and you have not received a confirmation email from me, then an error has occurred and I would request that you resend your email.

Details on how to volunteer can be found at the end of this message. To summarize, please volunteer by sending me an email containing your name, affiliation, and the email address you use to register for IETF meetings. 

The 74 qualified individuals who have so far volunteered are listed below.   I apologize for any errors in this list, please notify me of any errors as soon as possible.

To be eligible, volunteers for the nomcom need to have attended 3 of the past 5 IETF meetings as of the time this announcement goes out. That is, 3 meetings from IETF 79 (Beijing) - IETF 83 (Paris). If you qualify, and if you will not be seeking appointment to any of the open positions that this nomcom will be filling, please consider volunteering.

The primary activity for this nomcom will begin in August 2012 and should be completed in January 2013. The nomcom will be collecting requirements from the community, as well as talking to candidates and obtaining feedback from community members about candidates. There will be regularly scheduled conference calls to ensure progress. Thus, being a nomcom member does require some time commitment.

Please volunteer by sending an email before 11:59 pm EDT (UTC - 4 hours) August 5, 2012 as follows:

To: mlepinski.ietf@gmail.com
Subject: Nomcom 2012-13 Volunteer

Please include the following information in the body:

<Your Full Name>  // As you enter in the IETF Registration Form,
                    // First/Given name followed by Last/Family Name
<Current Primary Affiliation>
                // typically what goes in the Company field
                //  in the IETF Registration Form
[<all email addresses used to Register for the past 5 IETF meetings>]
<Preferred email address>  //
<Telephone number>         // For confirmation if selected

Please expect an email response from me within 3 business days stating whether or not you are qualified.  If you don't receive a response, please re-send your email with the tag "RESEND:" added to the subject line.

If you are not yet sure you would like to volunteer, please consider that nomcom members play a very important role in shaping the leadership of the IETF.  Ensuring the leadership of the IETF is fair and balanced and comprised of those who can lead the IETF in the right direction is an important responsibility that rests on the IETF participants at large. Volunteering for the nomcom is a good way of contributing toward that goal.

I will be publishing a more detailed timetable for nomcom activities, as well as details of the randomness seeds to be used for the RFC 3797 selection process, within the next couple days.

Thank you,
Matthew Lepinski

--f46d044267fe0255e604c626dcf6
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I'd like to echo Greg's suggestion that we should align the minimum set of
required rates against 802.1ag/Y.1731.  However, I'd like to make the
argument that you should consider *removing* some of the rates suggested in
the draft.  In my mind, the main value in this draft specifying a minimum
set of supported intervals is really to set minimum standards for hardware
implementations.  Software implementations of BFD will typically have the
ability to be very flexible above a certain point.  In other words, a
software implementation that can minimally support 100ms intervals can
likely support nearly any rate that is slower than 100ms.  OTOH, hardware
implementations tend to be fairly restricted in the number of high-speed
rates that they can support.  I've seen merchant silicon implementations
that can really only do 3 or 4 "fast" rates (i.e. <1pps).  Specifying too
many rates will likely increase the cost of these solutions and we should
only do this if there is a strong use-case to justify pushing these
requirements on silicon vendors.

In terms of the suggested rates, both 3.3ms and 10ms are rates suggested
for CC/CV for MPLS-TP in RFC
6371<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6371#section-5.1.3> to
support protection-switching so should be included in the minimum set.  The
draft suggests 20ms (or 15ms) as another rate that can support 50ms
switchovers but this is impractical since worst-case detection time for
faults using 20ms CC/CV is 2.5 x 20ms = 50ms, which leaves you essentially
no time to perform the actual switchover.

The draft also suggests 50ms as a rate that some software implementations
can achieve.  IMHO, this is irrelevant.  There are probably software
implementations that could also achieve 25ms or even 10ms.  That doesn't
seem to be a good reason to add it to the list.  AFAIK, there is no
application that really benefits from 50ms CC/CV that would not be
adequately served by 100ms.  50ms CC/CV certainly won't achieve 50ms
protection switching times, even with a defect multiplier of 1.

As Greg suggests, we should certainly add 100ms to the list.  RFC 6371 also
lists 100ms as a rate that is useful to support performance-monitoring
applications in MPLS-TP networks.  It's worth noting that hardware that
does periodic LM/DM will often share common timer infrastructure with CC/CV
so it's good to align on these rates.  1s is also called out by RFC 6371.

The draft also suggests 300ms to support VOIP applications that require <1s
detection time.  But this makes the same erroneous assumption as the 20ms
rate.  With a 300ms CC/CV interval and a defect multiplier of 3,
defect-entry can occur as late as 3.5 x 300ms = 1050ms which violates the
1s requirement.  I would suggest that the 100ms interval can probably serve
this application just fine.  But it would be good to get the opinions of
any VOIP experts on the list.

In summary, I would suggest 3.3ms, 10ms, 100ms, and 1s as the minimal set.
 I would delete 20ms, 50ms, and 300ms.

regards,
Pablo

Hello Greg and Pablo,

sorry for the late reply, simply busy. And thanks for the feedback!


I'm perfectly fine adding the 100msec. For removing the 300msec, true =
that 3 x 300msec or 9 x 100msec should cover the same scenarios. I hope =
that we get some more feedback from vendors (not just routers) if we can =
drop 300msec.

I do not agree with the sparse list with the large jump from 10msec to =
100msec, even if IEEE does. Reality is not black/white and being close =
to 50-60msec detection time is still better than being off like =
200-300msec. Thus the 20msec. It was actually this gap that motivated us =
writing this draft :-)


> The draft also suggests 50ms as a rate that some software =
implementations can achieve.  IMHO, this is irrelevant.

With 20msec and 100msec available one may replace 50msec in terms of =
dection time. On the other hand 50msec is a value I've seen quite often, =
i.e. it's not irrelevant. This draft is about interoperability in the =
sense that existing/older software-based implementations can peer with =
silicon-based BFD while largely maintaining the existing detection =
times. But again, the discussion just started.


> I've seen merchant silicon implementations that can really only do 3 =
or 4 "fast" rates


fair point, on the other hand BFD solutions and thus "typical" timer =
values are out in the world and the silicon vendors are not reinventing =
BFD. Plus you can use silicon for the really fast BFD and use cheaper =
software for the not-so-fast timers.

But to find the balance is what this discussion is for :-)=20


Regarding the additional ".5" in your detection time calculation, while =
I guess I understand this from a hardware implementation point of view I =
somewhat disagree. =46rom RFC5880:

6.8.4.  Calculating the Detection Time
	[...]
   In Asynchronous mode, the Detection Time calculated in the local
   system is equal to the value of Detect Mult received from the remote  =
  =20
   system, multiplied by the agreed transmit interval of the remote
   system (the greater of bfd.RequiredMinRxInterval and the last
   received Desired Min TX Interval).


So  M * I (M: remote Multiplier, I: remote agreed transmit interval) =
should be your upper limit until when you have detected that the link or =
TP tunnel is interrupted. (M-1) * I would be the lower boundary.


For the larger values that Greg mentioned (10 sec, 1 min, 10 min)  I =
still have to give this a thought. Larger timer (and multiplier) values =
are one way to achieve "graceful restart" for BFD and I've heard about =
interop problems with it as well, so maybe worthwhile to cover in this =
draft as well.


Anyway, thanks again for the feedback and opinion!


Regards, Marc

&nbsp;However, I'd like to make the argument that you should consider =

the main value in this draft specifying a minimum set of supported =

implementations. &nbsp;Software implementations of BFD will typically =
have the ability to be very flexible above a certain point. &nbsp;In =
other words, a software implementation that can minimally support 100ms =
intervals can likely support nearly any rate that is slower than 100ms. =
&nbsp;OTOH, hardware implementations tend to be fairly restricted in the =
number of high-speed rates that they can support. &nbsp;I've seen =
merchant silicon implementations that can really only do 3 or 4 "fast" =
rates (i.e. &lt;1pps). &nbsp;Specifying too many rates will likely =
increase the cost of these solutions and we should only do this if there =
is a strong use-case to justify pushing these requirements on silicon =
vendors.<div>
<br></div><div>In terms of the suggested rates, both 3.3ms and 10ms are =
rates suggested for CC/CV for MPLS-TP in&nbsp;<a =

6371</a>&nbsp;to support protection-switching so should be included in =
the minimum set. &nbsp;The draft suggests 20ms (or 15ms) as another rate =
that can support 50ms switchovers but this is impractical since =
worst-case detection time for faults using 20ms CC/CV is 2.5 x 20ms =3D =
50ms, which leaves you essentially no time to perform the actual =
switchover. &nbsp;</div>
<div><br></div><div>The draft also suggests 50ms as a rate that some =
software implementations can achieve. &nbsp;IMHO, this is irrelevant. =
&nbsp;There are probably software implementations that could also =
achieve 25ms or even 10ms. &nbsp;That doesn't seem to be a good reason =
to add it to the list. &nbsp;AFAIK, there is no application that really =
benefits from 50ms CC/CV that would not be adequately served by 100ms. =
&nbsp;50ms CC/CV certainly won't achieve 50ms protection switching =
times, even with a defect multiplier of 1.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As Greg suggests, we should certainly add 100ms to =
the list. &nbsp;RFC 6371 also lists 100ms as a rate that is useful to =
support performance-monitoring applications in MPLS-TP networks. =
&nbsp;It's worth noting that hardware that does periodic LM/DM will =
often share common timer infrastructure with CC/CV so it's good to align =
on these rates. &nbsp;1s is also called out by RFC 6371.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The draft also suggests 300ms to support VOIP =
applications that require &lt;1s detection time. &nbsp;But this makes =
the same erroneous assumption as the 20ms rate. &nbsp;With a 300ms CC/CV =
interval and a defect multiplier of 3, defect-entry can occur as late as =
3.5 x 300ms =3D 1050ms which violates the 1s requirement. &nbsp;I would =
suggest that the 100ms interval can probably serve this application just =
fine. &nbsp;But it would be good to get the opinions of any VOIP experts =
on the list.</div>
<div><br></div><div>In summary, I would suggest 3.3ms, 10ms, 100ms, and =

Hi Marc, et al.,<br>I think I'd refer to the set of timer values defined =
in the draft-akiya-bfd-intervals as 'Minimally Required Set" rather than =
as "Standard".<br>Second, 3.3 ms interval included in the set for the =
benefit of MPLS-TP. I'd note that OAM for packet transport networks =
would likely to use from set of intervals defined in IEEE =
802.1ag/Y.1731, i.e. [3.3 ms, 10 ms, 100 ms, 1 sec, 10 sec, 1 min, 10 =
min]. To make two sets more compatible, I propose to include 100 ms =
interval into the Minimally Required Set that proposed in the draft.<br>

Hello BFD experts,<br>

Nobo and me have uploaded a new version of draft-akiya-bfd-intervals, =
mainly fixing some typos and adding one clarification.<br>

We received (unicast) several feedbacks, in general positive. What still =
may require a closer look is:<br>

(i) &nbsp;the set of Standard Interval values<br>

(ii) the Poll/Final sequence example in Appendix B<br>

&gt; Abstract:<br>
&gt; &nbsp; This document defines a set of interval values that we call =
"Standard<br>
&gt; &nbsp; intervals". &nbsp;Values of this set must be supported for =
transmitting<br>
&gt; &nbsp; BFD control packets and for calculating the detection time =
in the<br>
&gt; &nbsp; receive direction when the value is equal or larger than the =
fastest,<br>
&gt; &nbsp; i.e. lowest, interval a particular BFD implementation =
supports.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &nbsp; This solves the problem of finding an interval value that =
both BFD<br>
&gt; &nbsp; speakers can support while allowing a simplified =
implementation as<br>
&gt; &nbsp; seen for hardware-based BFD.<br>
