Hello BFD WG,

There has been no changes from the tentative BFD agenda.

http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/91/agenda/agenda-91-bfd

There is some buffer towards the end of the session, which we'll encourage =
its usage for further BFD yang modeling discussions, unless there are other=
 topics raised/suggested.

Question:

Would any brave souls willing to server as:

  (1) note/minute taker
  (2) jabber scribe

??

Reminder:

If you are presenting at IETF91 BFD WG, please send Jeff and I your slides =
by no later than November 7th.

Thanks!

Hi Santosh,

Good question.

Just to clarify, there is no requirement that that SBFDReflector must loop =
back S-BFD echo packets on the same interface which it received from.

However, I do agree that it would be beneficial for SBFDReflector to indica=
te that it is capable of looping backing S-BFD echo packets or not via the =
use of "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field in the S-BFD control packets i=
t replies.

Although I do not think SBFDReflector should keep track of how much/many S-=
BFD echo packets it's looping back and reflect some suggested value in the =
"Required Min Echo RX Interval" field in the S-BFD control packets it repli=
es.

In summary, I think we should clarify this by updating above texts to somet=
hing along the line of:

If (SBFDReflector is hosted on a device that supports looping back of S-BFD=
 echo packets) {
    MUST set non-zero value in the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field of=
 reply packets.
} else {
    MUST set zero in the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field of reply pac=
kets.
}

What do you think?

Thanks!

-Nobo

Hi Santosh,

Good question.

Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2014 9:16 AM

In SBFD base draft we say
" The usage of the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field is described
    in Section 7.2.2 and Section 7.3.2.  Because of the stateless nature
    of SBFDReflector sessions, a value specified the "Required Min Echo
    RX Interval" field in both directions is not very meaningful.  Thus
    it is RECOMMENDED that the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field
    simply be set to zero in both directions."
I understand that SBFD initiator sending echo Min RX interval as zero makes
sense as reflector will never send echo packet. But SBFD initiator may send
echo packet and if SBFD reflector has a policy that it can't loop back the
packet on the same interface where it received or a global config says it c=
an
only entertain x rate of packets then do we need to communicate that to
Initiator? I am ask this because in BFD for SR it is using echo and control=
 to
detect path going down.

Just to clarify, there is no requirement that that SBFDReflector must loop =
back S-BFD echo packets on the same interface which it received from.

However, I do agree that it would be beneficial for SBFDReflector to indica=
te that it is capable of looping backing S-BFD echo packets or not via the =
use of "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field in the S-BFD control packets i=
t replies.

Although I do not think SBFDReflector should keep track of how much/many S-=
BFD echo packets it's looping back and reflect some suggested value in the =
"Required Min Echo RX Interval" field in the S-BFD control packets it repli=
es.

In summary, I think we should clarify this by updating above texts to somet=
hing along the line of:

If (SBFDReflector is hosted on a device that supports looping back of S-BFD=
 echo packets) {
    MUST set non-zero value in the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field of=
 reply packets.
} else {
    MUST set zero in the "Required Min Echo RX Interval" field of reply pac=
kets.
}

What do you think?

Thanks!

-Nobo

<br>
Good question.<br>
<br>
&gt; Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2014 9:16 AM<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; In SBFD base draft we say<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; &quot; The usage of the &quot;Required Min Echo RX Interval&quot; fiel=
d is described<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; in Section 7.2.2 and Section 7.3.2.&nbsp; Because of=
 the stateless nature<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; of SBFDReflector sessions, a value specified the &qu=
ot;Required Min Echo<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; RX Interval&quot; field in both directions is not ve=
ry meaningful.&nbsp; Thus<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; it is RECOMMENDED that the &quot;Required Min Echo R=
X Interval&quot; field<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; simply be set to zero in both directions.&quot;<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; I understand that SBFD initiator sending echo Min RX interval as zero =
makes<br>
&gt; sense as reflector will never send echo packet. But SBFD initiator may=
 send<br>
&gt; echo packet and if SBFD reflector has a policy that it can't loop back=
 the<br>
&gt; packet on the same interface where it received or a global config says=
 it can<br>
&gt; only entertain x rate of packets then do we need to communicate that t=
o<br>
&gt; Initiator? I am ask this because in BFD for SR it is using echo and co=
ntrol to<br>
&gt; detect path going down.<br>
<br>
Just to clarify, there is no requirement that that SBFDReflector must loop =
back S-BFD echo packets on the same interface which it received from.<br>
<br>
However, I do agree that it would be beneficial for SBFDReflector to indica=
te that it is capable of looping backing S-BFD echo packets or not via the =
use of &quot;Required Min Echo RX Interval&quot; field in the S-BFD control=
 packets it replies.<br>
<br>
Although I do not think SBFDReflector should keep track of how much/many S-=
BFD echo packets it's looping back and reflect some suggested value in the =
&quot;Required Min Echo RX Interval&quot; field in the S-BFD control packet=
s it replies.<br>
<br>
In summary, I think we should clarify this by updating above texts to somet=
hing along the line of:<br>
<br>
If (SBFDReflector is hosted on a device that supports looping back of S-BFD=
 echo packets) {<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MUST set non-zero value in the &quot;Required Min Echo R=
X Interval&quot; field of reply packets.<br>
} else {<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MUST set zero in the &quot;Required Min Echo RX Interval=
&quot; field of reply packets.<br>
}<br>
<br>
What do you think?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

[Speaking as an individual S-BFD contributor]

Hi BFD WG,

There were couple of questions I need your input on draft-akiya-bfd-seamles=
s-alert-discrim.


(1) Should the "extended" S-BFD use cases move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-u=
se-case?

My opinion is yes. Once the "extended" S-BFD use cases have been incorporat=
ed into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case, then we should try to move draft-=
ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case forward.

How does the WG feel about this?


(2) Should the alert discriminator proposal move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless=
-base?

My opinion is no . Instead we should position this as an optional feature o=
f S-BFD (hence separate document than the base), especially considering we =
likely need to think through additional security concerns raised by this.

A question was raised by Greg on how does a node find out if the target sup=
ports the optional alert discriminator or not. We can define a mandatory di=
agnostic value that must be implemented when the alert discriminator is imp=
lemented. One can send an S-BFD control packet with the alert discriminator=
 with this diagnostic value to check if the target supports the alert discr=
iminator mechanism.

How does the WG feel about this?


Thanks!

-Nobo

I agree with making this as optional feature and not merging with use case =
document. This also assumes that all the nodes on the path MUST have S-BFD =
implemented. What even if we mandate diag bit and intermediate router does =
not understand that diag bit as that box is with old BFD implementation? Th=
ere should be something suggested in this document that ingress should try =
for only finite time or retries?


Thanks

Hi Santosh,

Many thanks for comments.

Speaking with couple of folks at IETF91, they were in agreement on the sugg=
ested approach for (1) and (2).
Hoping to hear further comments in response to this thread, so that we can =
close this off and move forward.

Please see in-line.

Classical BFD vs. S-BFD will be differentiated with the UDP port. With that=
 said, having some texts about how an initiator unambiguously determines wh=
ether or not a target node support S-BFD alert discriminator (and recommend=
ed sequences) is a good idea. I'll place this text in the next revision.

Thanks!

[Speaking as an individual S-BFD contributor]

Hi BFD WG,

There were couple of questions I need your input on draft-akiya-bfd-seamles=
s-alert-discrim.


(1) Should the "extended" S-BFD use cases move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-u=
se-case?

My opinion is yes. Once the "extended" S-BFD use cases have been incorporat=
ed into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case, then we should try to move draft-=
ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case forward.

How does the WG feel about this?

GIM>> I think it makes sense to have use cases related to S-BFD in one docu=
ment. Support.

(2) Should the alert discriminator proposal move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless=
-base?

My opinion is no . Instead we should position this as an optional feature o=
f S-BFD (hence separate document than the base), especially considering we =
likely need to think through additional security concerns raised by this.

A question was raised by Greg on how does a node find out if the target sup=
ports the optional alert discriminator or not. We can define a mandatory di=
agnostic value that must be implemented when the alert discriminator is imp=
lemented. One can send an S-BFD control packet with the alert discriminator=
 with this diagnostic value to check if the target supports the alert discr=
iminator mechanism.

How does the WG feel about this?

GIM>> After discussing structure of BFD for multi-point networks document I=
 realized that keeping protocol extensions in separate documents has its va=
lue, especially if an extension is optional. Hence I change my previously s=
tated position and support progress alert discriminator document separately=
 from S-BFD base.

Thanks!

<div>Hi BFD WG,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There were couple of questions I need your input on draft-akiya-bfd-se=
amless-alert-discrim.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(1) Should the &quot;extended&quot; S-BFD use cases move to draft-ietf=
-bfd-seamless-use-case?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My opinion is yes. Once the &quot;extended&quot; S-BFD use cases have =
been incorporated into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case, then we should try=
 to move draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case forward.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How does the WG feel about this?</div>
</div>
</div>
</span>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Mallik&gt;&gt; Agree. Since this is another use case of SBFD it makes =
sense to have all in one place.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<span id=3D"OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION">

<div>(2) Should the alert discriminator proposal move to draft-ietf-bfd-sea=

Subject: Seeking opinions on draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim

[Speaking as an individual S-BFD contributor]

Hi BFD WG,

There were couple of questions I need your input on draft-akiya-bfd-seamles=
s-alert-discrim.


(1) Should the "extended" S-BFD use cases move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-u=
se-case?

My opinion is yes. Once the "extended" S-BFD use cases have been incorporat=
ed into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case, then we should try to move draft-=
ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case forward.

How does the WG feel about this?

Mallik>> Agree. Since this is another use case of SBFD it makes sense to ha=
ve all in one place.


(2) Should the alert discriminator proposal move to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless=
-base?

My opinion is no . Instead we should position this as an optional feature o=
f S-BFD (hence separate document than the base), especially considering we =
likely need to think through additional security concerns raised by this.

A question was raised by Greg on how does a node find out if the target sup=
ports the optional alert discriminator or not. We can define a mandatory di=
agnostic value that must be implemented when the alert discriminator is imp=
lemented. One can send an S-BFD control packet with the alert discriminator=
 with this diagnostic value to check if the target supports the alert discr=
iminator mechanism.

How does the WG feel about this?

Mallik>> Agree. Since this is an optional feature using the base proposal o=
f SBFD, we can have it as a separate document.

Thanks!

-Nobo

Hi draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case Authors,

Number of WG members feel that it is appropriate to take following action.

1) Take Section 2 from draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim-03, and incor=
porate into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case.
2) Once (1) is done, remove Section 2 in draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-dis=
crim and reference draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case.
3) Once (1) is done, attempt to progress draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case d=
ocument forward.

See http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rtg-bfd/current/msg02407.html for =
email which initially stemmed this discussion.
See http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rtg-bfd/current/msg02425.html for =
email which converged the direction.

If Authors of draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case have no objections, I'd like=
 to ask the Authors of draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case to initiate the cha=
nges for (1).

Thanks!

-Nobo

Hello Nobo and BFD experts,

giving this document a closer look for the first time (ahem ;-) I have a 
slightly different view.

Having S-BFD use cases for the general S-BFD in an extra document does 
improve the overall discussion and documentation, simply because the base 
S-BFD is already complex enough, as are the use cases.

But for such a relatively small document splitting off the reason why the 
document exists is not improving the reading/understanding of this draft. 
Unless you decide to integrate the alert-discriminator document into the base 
document, then obviously you use the use-case document.


For the integration of the technical aspect into the base document, I think 
this is an idea worth to discuss. At the end what you need is to add the rule 
for the zero discriminator to the reflector behaviour; we managed this for 
standard BFD, we should be able to do this for the reflector BFD as well :-)  
For the diagnostic codes I'm not sure; it will complicate hardware 
implementations (probably not a no-go problem though) and seems otherwise not 
add a real value IMHO.

So if there are already at this stage of S-BFD use case(s) for 
zero-discriminator to bring up (some) sessions then I would propose to 
consider the integration into the base document. This will also guarantee 
that the zero-discriminator handling is as fast as the "normal" reflection 
and is not on a slower exception path.



I have a question: so far S-BFD packets would be received, not "picked out of 
the data stream". Receiving could be because the destination IP would match 
or would be 127/8, the TTL would be zero and so on. In the security section 
you say ...

   Conceptually the Alert Discriminator is similar to an IP Router Alert
   Option or an MPLS Router Alert Label.

... and I wonder if you expect a node to "pick" S-BFD traffic (to the 
reflector) with an alert-discriminator out of the data stream that otherwise 
would just pass this node?
I guess you don't want but I want to make sure I understand it correctly.


Regards, Marc

Hello Nobo et al.,

erm ... it's great to see so much energy and "drive" but can we discuss this 
a little bit further?

As I said in my reply, moving section 2 into the use-case document does make 
the alert-discrim draft less readable in my opinion.


Thanks & Regards,
Marc

Hello All,

    In IETF-91 I have presented open items. Below are the last few things w=
e need to close on.



1.       Active tail.

As discussed earlier, is this required in base draft? I spoke to all implem=
enters  and no one has active tail implemented yet. To push it for RFC we n=
eed implementation so can we go ahead and move it to appendix or may be new=
 document?



2.       Demultiplexing and UDP port number.

It makes more sense to have a separate draft for this. Please let me know i=
f that is ok? If it benefits to have it in base draft itself then we can ha=
ve more sections for demux and port number to be used.



3.       Echo mode supported?

Echo mode does not fit in P2MP BFD. We can say it is not supported. Does an=
yone see use of echo BFD in P2MP BFD?



4.       Increase interval?

Draft suggest not to use POLL sequence and suggests to increase multiplier =
first and then interval. If we have hardware implementation and don't want =
to check complete packet every time received then change in packet may be i=
ndicated with

POLL bit set. Since this is one to many mapping we can't have a complete PO=
LL sequence and hence we need to suppress FINAL. Should we be going with PO=
LL and suppress FINAL by setting desired RX interval set to 0? Please sugge=
st any better idea.



5.       bfd.ReportTailDown

Draft suggests that head direct tails to send down notification. How will h=
ead direct tail about failure notification to be sent or not? Is this drive=
n by configuration? At least the  section 4.4.1 says so. It could also be c=
ommunicated to

received out of band?



This should be out of scope of this document as we can't direct tails with =
in BFD packet. Any comments?



6.       How packets get absorbed on tails?

Few implementers use UDP port number to absorb BFD packet on tails. It woul=
d be good to clarify about this in draft. Do we see any other way of absorb=
ing packet on tail?



7.       Security consideration?

No suggestions yet.





Thanks

Santosh P K

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Hello Nobo,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks again for your=
 comments on this. Please see my comments.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (a) unicast DOWN notification from=
 leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (b) multicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (c) unicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; If we want to keep the in-band mec=
hanism and remove out-of-band</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; mechanism, then preserve (a) and (b) bu=
t remove (c). And that would be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; my preference.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Mingui, for your &quot;TRILL Resil=
ient Distribution Trees&quot;, do you see</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; the need</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; for all [a-c] or just subsets?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Does (a) alone not enough?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Personally I think there's a value in leavin=
g the option for the head to do in-</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; band polling of leaves. In other words, if d=
own notification from a leaf to the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; head, then there is no way for the head to f=
ind out that leaf is no longer</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; receiving.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Want to know if there are any applicati=
on which wants to track tail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; proactively? If so we can keep both (a)=
 and (b).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; More comments from the WG will be very helpf=
ul. So far ...</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; - Mingui brought up &quot;TRILL Resilient Di=
stribution Trees&quot;.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; - I brought up P2MP-TE Path Protection, whic=
h I think both (a) and (b) will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; useful.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Demux procedures is one, UDP port =
is the other one (i.e. it is not</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; specified</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; in this document).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Yes, UDP port is not specified in the d=
ocument. We can add this info</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; in base document itself? Every on ok wi=
th this? Any suggestions?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Demux procedures and UDP ports should go int=
o the same document.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; So it's either:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; (a) put everything in draft-ietf-bfd-multipo=
int.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Or</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; (b) spin off draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint-&lt;d=
ataplane&gt; document per data plane.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Hello All,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sorry for delay.=
 I am trying to elaborate what I meant by &quot;active tail&quot;.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Please also comment on other two i=
tems that I have listed below</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; which were raised by Prasad and No=
bo in earlier discussions.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Active tail:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ------------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; As per discussion with implementer=
s it looks like we don't see any</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; use case scenario for head trackin=
g tail. Currently there are</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; multiple options given in draft fo=
r head to track tail.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1.&nbsp; =
Unreliable Head Notification as per section 6.2</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbs=
p;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&=
nbsp;&nbsp; When tail detect timer expires it sends DOWN BFD packet to</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; head on</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; reverse unicast path.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. Semi-r=
eliable Head Notification and Tail Solicitation as per</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; section</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; 6.3</p>

nbsp;&nbsp; A multipoint POLL with a combination of reverse unicast</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; path FINAL</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; will help head to know if tail has=
 lost communication with head.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3. Reliab=
le Head Notification as per section 6.4</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=
&nbsp; A combination of multipoint POLL and unicast POLL will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; used by</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; head to detect tail going down. Ta=
il will make use of reverse</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; unicast path to send FINAL packet =
to head.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; One important characteristics is that:<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (1) allows the head to be notified of _=
in-band_ failure by leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (2) allows the head to poll leaves thro=
ugh _in-band_ packets.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (3) allows the head to poll leaves thro=
ugh _out-of-band_ unicast packets.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Going back to what Wim wrote (thanks fo=
r the comment Wim!):</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; [snip]</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; In certain environment the trackin=
g of the tails is happening by</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; other</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; means.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Example is Multicast VPN using MP-=
BGP.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; [snip]</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; True, in the scenario described, (3) ad=
ds very minimal value beyond</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; running multi-hop BFD session between B=
GP peers.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; On the other hand (1) and (2) are in-ba=
nd, and can detect failures</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; that other sessions like multi-hop BFD =
sessions cannot. It does look</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; useful with technologies such as P2MP-T=
E where:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - leaves are constant</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - has path-protection mechanism</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; We have below options:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1. Go wit=
h simple &quot;No Head Notification&quot; as per section 6.1 in base</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; draft and move rest of the section=
s to Appendix or move to separate</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; draft?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; In this case On MultipointHead bfd=
.ReportTailDown</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;will be set to 0 and we might not even need Multipoint=
Client</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; as we are not going to receive any=
 packets from tail. bfd.SilentTail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; will be set to 1 on MultipointTail=
</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. Anothe=
r option is to just keep &quot;Unreliable Head Notification&quot; as</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; per section 6.2 and move/remove re=
st of mechanism through which</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Multipoint head can detect tail go=
ing down.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Meaning we need to move/remove Multicast POLL and unic=
ast</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; POLL</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; from MultipointHead.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Another way to look at this is that:</p=
>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (a) unicast DOWN notification from leav=
es.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (b) multicast Poll of leaves.</p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; If we want to keep the in-band mechanis=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; my preference.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Mingui, for your &quot;TRILL Resilient =

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3. Jeff s=
uggested that we move these sections to new draft with</p>

Any other options? Please suggest.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Along with this I am also seeking =
comments on below two points.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Demux:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ---------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; This was brought up by Prasad in c=
ontext of EVPN BFD draft that as</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; per section 4.7 of this draft say<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &quot; Th=
e minimum amount of a priori information required both on the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; head</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and tails is the binding to the multipoint path over which B=
FD</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; is running.&quot;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Above text is brief and draft is A=
F agnostic. Do we need to make</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; text of Sec</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; 4.7 and related sections more expl=
icit? For example in case of EVPN</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; tail nodes may use the P2MP label =
as the session demux key. Do we</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; want to elaborate demux in base dr=
aft or it should be outside the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; scope of this document?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Demux procedures is one, UDP port is th=
e other one (i.e. it is not</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; specified in this document).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; We need to either:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - Add details in this document, or</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - Consider this document as multipoint =
base document, and roll out</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; micro- documents describing demux/UDP-p=
ort details for various data</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; planes.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Either will work, but the details are r=
equired somewhere to interoperate.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Security consideration:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ----------------------------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; As per Nobo's comment on this draf=
t long back.&nbsp; We need to add some</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; suggestion in security considerati=
on. Mainly because MultipointTail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; session can be created dynamically=
.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Snippet from Nobo's mail.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &quot;MultipointTail sessions are =
dynamically created. If I had a way of</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; getting around GTSM &amp; Authenti=
cation (or lack of) and was aware of a</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; source address that will pass the =
&quot;check&quot;, then I could DoS this</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; system with range of My Discrimina=
tor values to leaves, which will</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; cause many instances of Multipoint=
Tail sessions to get created.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Draft does say [create or discard]=
 choice is outside the scope (in 4.16.2).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; But given the dynamic nature of se=
ssion creation, it would be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; beneficial to highlight this point=
 and provide suggestions in the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &quot;Security</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Consideration&quot;.&quot;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Any suggestion on this?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Jeff and Nobo have already raised =
some concerns here. We might have</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; to see how PIM is doing it today.<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Right it would be a good idea how other=
 multipoint/multicast protocols</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; have addressed this.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Dear WG,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;The topic of keeping or r=
emoving the active tail from</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint=
 is one of the last couple of topics</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;that we, as a WG, need to=
 resolve for this document.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Whether or not we keep or=
 remove the active tail, leaves will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;able to detect the failur=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;protections such as live-=
live.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;What is essentially diffe=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Keeping the active tail -=
 Allows ingress/root to keep track of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Removing the active tail =
- Ingress/root will not be able to keep</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;track of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;If there's any requiremen=
ts for the ingress/root to trigger some</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;protections, then active =
tail becomes a requirement. If there is</p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;It'll be beneficial to he=

Your view is then:

Instead of:

(1) Move extended use-cases to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case and keep th=
e alert discriminator mechanism in the draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discr=
im.

Do:

(2) Keep the extended use-cases and alert discriminator mechanism in the dr=
aft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim.

Or

(3) Move the extended use-cases to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case and mov=
e the alert discriminator mechanism to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base.

My thought was that (1) makes sense, but your view that (1) makes all the S=
-BFD documents set more complex to understand is a valid concern (it's alwa=
ys good to get fresh eyes on documents!).

Whether the S-BFD packets with alert discriminator are handled in HW or SW =
is an implementation choice. Similar to how IP router alert option & router=
 alert label are handled, I do see handling of S-BFD packets with alert dis=
criminator in the SW to be a reasonable approach, in which case the HW inst=
ruction for S-BFD packets with alert discriminator is to punt to SW for pro=
cessing.

If one really wants to handle them in the HW, that's a possibility. Althoug=
h as you stated, it does complicate HW implementations and this is another =
reason for SW based implementations.

>=20

Personally, I tend to recommend that alert discriminators are handled in th=
e SW. Let's assume that you agree on this (hypothetically). In that case, w=
ould you still recommend the alert discriminator mechanism to be moved to t=
he draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base or is it reasonable to keep it in the draft=
-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim?

Ah, great catch. Yes we do not want "intermediate nodes" to pick up S-BFD p=
ackets with alert discriminator. So the statement regarding "Conceptually t=
he Alert Discriminator is similar to an IP Router Alert Option or an MPLS R=
outer Alert Label" should be re-stated and clarified.

Thanks!

yes, exactly.

That's probably where our different views come from :-)
I would aim to simplify the main idea of the draft so it _can_ easily be 
implemented even in hardware.

For the traceroute - my guess is TTL punts (if that mechanism to "deliver" is 
used) happen in software as many mechanism use this "trick" but if a hardware 
can handle TTL punts, it can handle the diag code as well. I don't see the 
document needs to adjust for the traceroute case.

For a basic reflector task, having a zero discriminator as a default 
reflector discriminator would allow for very simple implementations (we 
discussed a while ago a fixed discriminator value for simple broadband 
modems, remember?).
For more complex equipment and scenarios, keeping it in hardware instead of a 
software punt would maintain the ability of S-BFD to go up very quickly.


I tend to not see the zero discriminator as such a big exception, which may 
explain my idea to integrate it into the base document. And to keep it 
compatible to hardware implementations.
Assuming you want to add more "special effects" in the future I can see why 
you have an extra document. I would propose to keep the zero-reflector 
mentally aligned :-) with the base document and accordingly designed to allow 
implementations to cover the zero-reflector together with "normal" S-BFD 
(read: may be in hardware).

Good - makes life simpler :-)

Subject: RE: I-D Action: draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint-04.txt


Hello All,

    In IETF-91 I have presented open items. Below are the last few things w=
e need to close on.



1.       Active tail.

As discussed earlier, is this required in base draft? I spoke to all implem=
enters  and no one has active tail implemented yet. To push it for RFC we n=
eed implementation so can we go ahead and move it to appendix or may be new=
 document?

WH> I would propose we do the active tail in appendix or a separate draft



2.       Demultiplexing and UDP port number.

It makes more sense to have a separate draft for this. Please let me know i=
f that is ok? If it benefits to have it in base draft itself then we can ha=
ve more sections for demux and port number to be used.

WH> it should be in the draft I believe



3.       Echo mode supported?

Echo mode does not fit in P2MP BFD. We can say it is not supported. Does an=
yone see use of echo BFD in P2MP BFD?

WH> I don=92t see a use case for this so far



4.       Increase interval?

Draft suggest not to use POLL sequence and suggests to increase multiplier =
first and then interval. If we have hardware implementation and don=92t wan=
t to check complete packet every time received then change in packet may be=
 indicated with

POLL bit set. Since this is one to many mapping we can't have a complete PO=
LL sequence and hence we need to suppress FINAL. Should we be going with PO=
LL and suppress FINAL by setting desired RX interval set to 0? Please sugge=
st any better idea.



5.       bfd.ReportTailDown

Draft suggests that head direct tails to send down notification. How will h=
ead direct tail about failure notification to be sent or not? Is this drive=
n by configuration? At least the  section 4.4.1 says so. It could also be c=
ommunicated to

received out of band?



This should be out of scope of this document as we can't direct tails with =
in BFD packet. Any comments?



6.       How packets get absorbed on tails?

Few implementers use UDP port number to absorb BFD packet on tails. It woul=
d be good to clarify about this in draft. Do we see any other way of absorb=
ing packet on tail?



7.       Security consideration?

No suggestions yet.





Thanks

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Hello Nobo,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks again for your=
 comments on this. Please see my comments.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (a) unicast DOWN notification from=
 leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (b) multicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; (c) unicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; If we want to keep the in-band mec=
hanism and remove out-of-band</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; mechanism, then preserve (a) and (b) bu=
t remove (c). And that would be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; my preference.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Mingui, for your &quot;TRILL Resil=
ient Distribution Trees&quot;, do you see</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; the need</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; for all [a-c] or just subsets?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Does (a) alone not enough?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Personally I think there's a value in leavin=
g the option for the head to do in-</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; band polling of leaves. In other words, if d=
own notification from a leaf to the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; head, then there is no way for the head to f=
ind out that leaf is no longer</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; receiving.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Want to know if there are any applicati=
on which wants to track tail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; proactively? If so we can keep both (a)=
 and (b).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; More comments from the WG will be very helpf=
ul. So far ...</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; - Mingui brought up &quot;TRILL Resilient Di=
stribution Trees&quot;.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; - I brought up P2MP-TE Path Protection, whic=
h I think both (a) and (b) will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; useful.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Demux procedures is one, UDP port =
is the other one (i.e. it is not</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; specified</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; in this document).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Yes, UDP port is not specified in the d=
ocument. We can add this info</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; in base document itself? Every on ok wi=
th this? Any suggestions?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Demux procedures and UDP ports should go int=
o the same document.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; So it's either:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; (a) put everything in draft-ietf-bfd-multipo=
int.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; Or</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; (b) spin off draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint-&lt;d=
ataplane&gt; document per data plane.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; </p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; which were raised by Prasad and No=
bo in earlier discussions.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Active tail:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ------------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; As per discussion with implementer=
s it looks like we don't see any</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; use case scenario for head trackin=
g tail. Currently there are</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; multiple options given in draft fo=
r head to track tail.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1.&nbsp; =
Unreliable Head Notification as per section 6.2</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbs=
p;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&=
nbsp;&nbsp; When tail detect timer expires it sends DOWN BFD packet to</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; head on</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; reverse unicast path.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. Semi-r=
eliable Head Notification and Tail Solicitation as per</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; section</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; 6.3</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbs=
p;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&=
nbsp;&nbsp; A multipoint POLL with a combination of reverse unicast</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; path FINAL</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; will help head to know if tail has=
 lost communication with head.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3. Reliab=
le Head Notification as per section 6.4</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=
&nbsp; A combination of multipoint POLL and unicast POLL will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; used by</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; head to detect tail going down. Ta=
il will make use of reverse</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; unicast path to send FINAL packet =
to head.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; One important characteristics is that:<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (1) allows the head to be notified of _=
in-band_ failure by leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (2) allows the head to poll leaves thro=
ugh _in-band_ packets.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (3) allows the head to poll leaves thro=
ugh _out-of-band_ unicast packets.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Going back to what Wim wrote (thanks fo=
r the comment Wim!):</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; [snip]</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; In certain environment the trackin=
g of the tails is happening by</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; other</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; means.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Example is Multicast VPN using MP-=
BGP.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; [snip]</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; True, in the scenario described, (3) ad=
ds very minimal value beyond</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; running multi-hop BFD session between B=
GP peers.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; On the other hand (1) and (2) are in-ba=
nd, and can detect failures</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; that other sessions like multi-hop BFD =
sessions cannot. It does look</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; useful with technologies such as P2MP-T=
E where:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - leaves are constant</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - has path-protection mechanism</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; We have below options:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1. Go wit=
h simple &quot;No Head Notification&quot; as per section 6.1 in base</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; draft and move rest of the section=
s to Appendix or move to separate</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; draft?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; In this case On MultipointHead bfd=
.ReportTailDown</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;will be set to 0 and we might not even need Multipoint=
Client</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; as we are not going to receive any=
 packets from tail. bfd.SilentTail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; will be set to 1 on MultipointTail=
</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. Anothe=
r option is to just keep &quot;Unreliable Head Notification&quot; as</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; per section 6.2 and move/remove re=
st of mechanism through which</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Multipoint head can detect tail go=
ing down.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Meaning we need to move/remove Multicast POLL and unic=
ast</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; POLL</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; from MultipointHead.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Another way to look at this is that:</p=
>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (a) unicast DOWN notification from leav=
es.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (b) multicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; (c) unicast Poll of leaves.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; If we want to keep the in-band mechanis=
m and remove out-of-band</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; mechanism, then preserve (a) and (b) bu=
t remove (c). And that would be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; my preference.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Mingui, for your &quot;TRILL Resilient =
Distribution Trees&quot;, do you see the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; need for all [a-c] or just subsets?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3. Jeff s=
uggested that we move these sections to new draft with</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; experimental status.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 4.&nbsp; =
Any other options? Please suggest.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Along with this I am also seeking =
comments on below two points.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Demux:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ---------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; This was brought up by Prasad in c=
ontext of EVPN BFD draft that as</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; per section 4.7 of this draft say<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &quot; Th=
e minimum amount of a priori information required both on the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; head</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nb=
sp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and tails is the binding to the multipoint path over which B=
FD</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; is running.&quot;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Above text is brief and draft is A=
F agnostic. Do we need to make</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; text of Sec</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; 4.7 and related sections more expl=
icit? For example in case of EVPN</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; tail nodes may use the P2MP label =
as the session demux key. Do we</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; want to elaborate demux in base dr=
aft or it should be outside the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; scope of this document?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Demux procedures is one, UDP port is th=
e other one (i.e. it is not</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; specified in this document).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; We need to either:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - Add details in this document, or</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; - Consider this document as multipoint =
base document, and roll out</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; micro- documents describing demux/UDP-p=
ort details for various data</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; planes.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Either will work, but the details are r=
equired somewhere to interoperate.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Security consideration:</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; ----------------------------</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; As per Nobo's comment on this draf=
t long back.&nbsp; We need to add some</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; suggestion in security considerati=
on. Mainly because MultipointTail</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; session can be created dynamically=
.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Snippet from Nobo's mail.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &quot;MultipointTail sessions are =
dynamically created. If I had a way of</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; getting around GTSM &amp; Authenti=
cation (or lack of) and was aware of a</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; source address that will pass the =
&quot;check&quot;, then I could DoS this</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; system with range of My Discrimina=
tor values to leaves, which will</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; cause many instances of Multipoint=
Tail sessions to get created.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Draft does say [create or discard]=
 choice is outside the scope (in 4.16.2).</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; But given the dynamic nature of se=
ssion creation, it would be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; beneficial to highlight this point=
 and provide suggestions in the</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &quot;Security</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Consideration&quot;.&quot;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Any suggestion on this?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; Jeff and Nobo have already raised =
some concerns here. We might have</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; to see how PIM is doing it today.<=
/p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; Right it would be a good idea how other=
 multipoint/multicast protocols</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; have addressed this.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt;</p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; It will helpful to clarify exactly=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt;</p>

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Dear WG,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;The topic of keeping or r=
emoving the active tail from</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint=
 is one of the last couple of topics</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;that we, as a WG, need to=
 resolve for this document.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Whether or not we keep or=
 remove the active tail, leaves will be</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;able to detect the failur=

live.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;What is essentially diffe=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Keeping the active tail -=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;If there's any requiremen=

<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Hello All,</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I =
am seeking comments on active tale section of this document.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;I spoke to&nbsp; few =
implementers and found that no one really finds</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;use case for active t=
ale.</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Does anyone on this =
forum feel that we might need active tale?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;If there are&nbsp; no=
 uses cases then we can move active tale section</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;to appendix? We would=
&nbsp; like to make all the changes before IETF</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;91 and push this for =
RFC. Any&nbsp; suggestions?</p>
<p class=3D"MsoPlainText">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;</p>

Hello Wim,
   Thanks a lot for your inputs on this. This really helps to take this dra=
ft forward.=20

>>1.	Demultiplexing and UDP port number.
>>It makes more sense to have a separate draft for this. Please let me know=
 if that is ok? If it benefits to have it in base draft itself then we can =
have more sections for demux and port number to be used.
>WH> it should be in the draft I believe

Looks like TRILL will not have UDP and hence it will need different mechani=
sm for demux. I had chat with Mingui and below is mail from him which expla=
in how they absorb packet on tails.=20

[Snip]
Since TRILL does not use UDP, no port number will be used. Instead, TRILL c=
reates a data plane channel for BFD.=20
A new RBridge-Channel Ethertype 0x8946 has been assigned for this kind of c=
hannel (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7178#section-7.2). And RBridge Channe=
l protocol numbers 0x002 and 0x003 are created for BFD Control and BFD Echo=
 respectively (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7175#section-8).
[Snip]

Now for P2MP LSP's we can still UDP to absorb packet on tails (already ther=
e are implementations doing this) and for TRILLs we can use RBridge channel=
. I somehow feel too much of info will go in to base draft if we add demux =
in to base draft. I am still open  for others opinion :).=20


Thanks

Subject: RE: I-D Action: draft-ietf-bfd-multipoint-04.txt

Hello All,
=A0=A0=A0 In IETF-91 I have presented open items. Below are the last few th=
ings we need to close on.=20
=A0
1. Active tail.
       As discussed earlier, is this required in base draft? I spoke to all=
 implementers =A0and no one has active tail implemented yet. To push it for=
 RFC we need implementation so can we go ahead and move it to appendix or m=
ay be new document?

WH> I would propose we do the active tail in appendix or a separate draft
       =A0
2. Demultiplexing and UDP port number.
       It makes more sense to have a separate draft for this. Please let me=
 know if that is ok? If it benefits to have it in base draft itself then we=
 can have more sections for demux and port number to be used.

WH> it should be in the draft I believe
       =A0
3. Echo mode supported?
       Echo mode does not fit in P2MP BFD. We can say it is not supported. =
Does anyone see use of echo BFD in P2MP BFD?

WH> I don't see a use case for this so far
       =A0
4. Increase interval?
Draft suggest not to use POLL sequence and suggests to increase multiplier =
first and then interval. If we have hardware implementation and don't want =
to check complete packet every time received then change in packet may be i=
ndicated with=20
POLL bit set. Since this is one to many mapping we can't have a complete PO=
LL sequence and hence we need to suppress FINAL. Should we be going with PO=
LL and suppress FINAL by setting desired RX interval set to 0? Please sugge=
st any better idea.=20
   =A0
5. bfd.ReportTailDown
       Draft suggests that head direct tails to send down notification. How=
 will head direct tail about failure notification to be sent or not? Is thi=
s driven by configuration? At least the=A0 section 4.4.1 says so. It could =
also be communicated to=20
       received out of band?
       =A0
       This should be out of scope of this document as we can't direct tail=
s with in BFD packet. Any comments?=20
       =A0
6. How packets get absorbed on tails?
Few implementers use UDP port number to absorb BFD packet on tails. It woul=
d be good to clarify about this in draft. Do we see any other way of absorb=
ing packet on tail? =A0
=A0
7. Security consideration?
       No suggestions yet.

Hello BFD WG,

Marc and I had some conversation on the topic of S-BFD alert discriminator =
document structure, and converged on a direction.

- We think that it is useful to describe both the problems and the solution=
 for the S-BFD alert discrimintor in a single document.
- We also think the S-BFD alert discriminator is more like an exception mec=
hanism, thus the mechanism should remain outside of the S-BFD base document=
.

Therefore, our converged recommendation to the WG is to keep the extended u=
se-cases and the alert discriminator mechanism in the draft-akiya-bfd-seaml=
ess-alert-discrim.

This also means that no further changes are needed in draft-ietf-bfd-seamle=
ss-use-case, and the draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case can progressed forwar=
d if authors feel that it is ready.

We would appreciate it if folks can chime in and state whether or not this =
is an acceptable way forward.

Thanks!

-Nobo & Marc

[NOBO] Wim, can you clarify which you mean?

A) You propose reliable head notification to be moved.
B) You propose semi-reliable and reliable head notifications to be moved.
C) You propose unreliable, semi-reliable and reliable head notifications to=
 be moved.

You can find the description of each notifications in page 4 of http://www.=
ietf.org/proceedings/91/slides/slides-91-bfd-0.pptx.

My preference will be (A).

>=20

>=20
> WH> it should be in the draft I believe

[NOBO] So ...

Option 1 is to describe the demux codepoint & procedures in the bfd-multipo=
int document.
Option 2 is to describe the demux codepoint & procedures in separate data p=
lane document(s).

It sounds like Santosh is preferring Option 2 while Wim is preferring optio=
n 1.

Perhaps there's an Option 3.

The bfd-multipoint document to describe one or two basic data plane demux c=
odepoint & procedures cleanly in a separate section (ex: IP and MPLS). Othe=
r data planes documents (ex: TRILL) can update the demux section of the bfd=
-multipoint document. Just thinking out loud ...

>=20

[NOBO] Agree, I see no value in the multipoint document considering the ech=
o inside the scope.

>=20

[NOBO] If we keep the semi-reliable head notification, then I would have ex=
pected P/F (from head to tails) to just work?

>=20

[NOBO] This is something which can be configured, thus out of scope [for no=
w] should be fine. One reason that I have been pushing to keep semi-reliabl=
e head notification is that it can catch instances of odd cases like tails =
not having consistent configurations ... i.e, only some tails notify and so=
me don't. Head doing the in-band polling can discover the available tails, =
becomes more of a fail-safe mechanism.

>=20

[NOBO]

For IP:
- UDP port.

For MPLS:
- 127/8 and UDP port.
- UHP does not require bootstrapping but PHP will require bootstrapping.

Thanks!

Moving reliable head notification to appendix or new document you mean :) ?=

Currently in document it tries to explain how to demux for IP only in secti=
on 4.8. We can add more text for clarity.=20
I am ok with option 1 where all procedure dumped in single document but I a=
m worried that in future some other data plane wants a new way of demultipl=
exing then we may need to change the base document again?=20

With semi-reliable head notification you want to have complete POLL sequenc=
e for  interval negotiation? One to many mapping will have issues with comp=
lete POLL sequence. Can you elaborate how this will help?=20

Agreed. It makes sense to have semi-reliable here.=20

Nobo and Marc,
   I completely agree with having a separate document for alert discriminat=
or and progress with use-case document.

Hi Nobo, Marc, Santosh, et. al,
there're many ways to slice the bread.
I agree with the proposed course of actions.

	Regards,

Subject: RE: Seeking opinions on draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim

Hello BFD WG,

Marc and I had some conversation on the topic of S-BFD alert discriminator =
document structure, and converged on a direction.

- We think that it is useful to describe both the problems and the solution=
 for the S-BFD alert discrimintor in a single document.
- We also think the S-BFD alert discriminator is more like an exception mec=
hanism, thus the mechanism should remain outside of the S-BFD base document=
.

Therefore, our converged recommendation to the WG is to keep the extended u=
se-cases and the alert discriminator mechanism in the draft-akiya-bfd-seaml=
ess-alert-discrim.

This also means that no further changes are needed in draft-ietf-bfd-seamle=
ss-use-case, and the draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case can progressed forwar=
d if authors feel that it is ready.

We would appreciate it if folks can chime in and state whether or not this =
is an acceptable way forward.

Thanks!

Currently in document it tries to explain how to demux for IP only in secti=
on 4.8. We can add more text for clarity.=20
I am ok with option 1 where all procedure dumped in single document but I a=

exing then we may need to change the base document again?=20
GIM>> Option 1 does make sense to me. Other encapsulations, e.g. MPLS ACH, =

With semi-reliable head notification you want to have complete POLL sequenc=
e for  interval negotiation? One to many mapping will have issues with comp=
lete POLL sequence. Can you elaborate how this will help?=20

Agreed. It makes sense to have semi-reliable here.=20

GIM>> I think that I disagree on this. Configuration can be verified by oth=
er means. I consider the base of multi-point BFD as mechanism suitable for =
1+1 protection switchover. Any type of tail monitoring, IMO, is optional an=

Ok so we have

1. Moving reliable notification option (A) moving to separate document/appe=
ndix.  (Nobo's preference)
2. Moving unreliable, semi-reliable and reliable (C) to separate document/a=
ppendix. (Greg's preference)=20

Wim you have any preference on this?=20

Ok so I think we are making progress on this. I understand that we need to =
do below.=20

Keep base document with IP demux and MPLS demux. For any other (TRILLS, MPL=
S ACH) demux required come up with a new draft.=20

Hmmm so this means we need converge on below options for tail monitoring.

1. Moving reliable notification option (A) moving to separate document/appe=
ndix.  (Nobo's preference)
2. Moving unreliable, semi-reliable and reliable (C) to separate document/a=
ppendix. (Greg's preference)

In case of PHP tail will not know which how to associate BFD received packe=
t to an LSP as all BFD packets will come with 127/8 address. This is why we=
 need boot strapping with MPLS LSP ping. There was a draft for the same lon=
g time ago.

If the majority of the WG thinks we should go with (C), then I wouldn't opp=
ose.

There is a benefit in progressing the portion that we all agree on, and rev=
isit those questionable parts when there are stronger requirements.

Thanks!

I agree that alert-discrim use case and mechanism should go in a
separate draft and must not be combined with the base s-bfd drafts.

Hi Nobo,

Agree that the Alert Discriminator must be described in a separate document=
. Since the SBFD use case document is listing out all the use cases of SBFD=
 don=92t you think we should at least mention  the alert discriminator func=
tion as on of the use cases and place a reference to the alert discriminato=
r document in the use cases.

Thanks

Mallik

Subject: RE: Seeking opinions on draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim

Hello BFD WG,

Marc and I had some conversation on the topic of S-BFD alert discriminator =
document structure, and converged on a direction.

- We think that it is useful to describe both the problems and the solution=
 for the S-BFD alert discrimintor in a single document.
- We also think the S-BFD alert discriminator is more like an exception mec=
hanism, thus the mechanism should remain outside of the S-BFD base document=
.

Therefore, our converged recommendation to the WG is to keep the extended u=
se-cases and the alert discriminator mechanism in the draft-akiya-bfd-seaml=
ess-alert-discrim.

This also means that no further changes are needed in draft-ietf-bfd-seamle=
ss-use-case, and the draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case can progressed forwar=
d if authors feel that it is ready.

We would appreciate it if folks can chime in and state whether or not this =
is an acceptable way forward.

Thanks!

-Nobo & Marc

That's probably where our different views come from :-) I would aim to
simplify the main idea of the draft so it _can_ easily be implemented even
in hardware.
For the traceroute - my guess is TTL punts (if that mechanism to "deliver" =
is
used) happen in software as many mechanism use this "trick" but if a
hardware can handle TTL punts, it can handle the diag code as well. I don't
see the document needs to adjust for the traceroute case.
For a basic reflector task, having a zero discriminator as a default reflec=
tor
discriminator would allow for very simple implementations (we discussed a
while ago a fixed discriminator value for simple broadband modems,
remember?).
For more complex equipment and scenarios, keeping it in hardware instead
of a software punt would maintain the ability of S-BFD to go up very quickl=
y.
I tend to not see the zero discriminator as such a big exception, which may
explain my idea to integrate it into the base document. And to keep it
compatible to hardware implementations.
Assuming you want to add more "special effects" in the future I can see why
you have an extra document. I would propose to keep the zero-reflector
mentally aligned :-) with the base document and accordingly designed to
allow implementations to cover the zero-reflector together with "normal"
S-BFD
(read: may be in hardware).

Good - makes life simpler :-)

<div>&gt;&gt; Subject: Re: Seeking opinions on</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; Hello Nobo and BFD experts,</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; giving this document a closer look for the first time (ahem ;=
-) I</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; have a slightly different view.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; Having S-BFD use cases for the general S-BFD in an extra docu=
ment</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; does improve the overall discussion and documentation, simply=
 because</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; the base S-BFD is already complex enough, as are the use case=
s.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; But for such a relatively small document splitting off the re=
ason why</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; the document exists is not improving the reading/understandin=
g of this</div>
<div>draft.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; Unless you decide to integrate the alert-discriminator docume=
nt into</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; the base document, then obviously you use the use-case docume=
nt.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Your view is then:</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Instead of:</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; (1) Move extended use-cases to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case a=
nd</div>
<div>&gt; keep the alert discriminator mechanism in the</div>
<div>&gt; draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Do:</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; (2) Keep the extended use-cases and alert discriminator mechanism=
 in</div>
<div>&gt; the draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Or</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; (3) Move the extended use-cases to draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-ca=
se</div>
<div>&gt; and move the alert discriminator mechanism to draft-ietf-bfd-seam=
less-</div>
<div>base.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; My thought was that (1) makes sense, but your view that (1) makes=
 all</div>
<div>&gt; the S-BFD documents set more complex to understand is a valid con=
cern</div>
<div>&gt; (it's always good to get fresh eyes on documents!).</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; For the integration of the technical aspect into the base doc=
ument, I</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; think this is an idea worth to discuss. At the end what you n=
eed is</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; to add the rule for the zero discriminator to the reflector</=
div>
<div>&gt;&gt; behaviour; we managed this for standard BFD, we should be abl=
e to do</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; this for the reflector BFD as well</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; :-)</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Whether the S-BFD packets with alert discriminator are handled in=
 HW</div>
<div>&gt; or SW is an implementation choice. Similar to how IP router alert=
</div>
<div>&gt; option &amp; router alert label are handled, I do see handling of=
 S-BFD</div>
<div>&gt; packets with alert discriminator in the SW to be a reasonable</di=
v>
<div>&gt; approach, in which case the HW instruction for S-BFD packets with=
</div>
<div>&gt; alert discriminator is to punt to SW for processing.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; For the diagnostic codes I'm not sure; it will complicate har=
dware</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; implementations (probably not a no-go problem though) and see=
ms</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; otherwise not add a real value IMHO.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; If one really wants to handle them in the HW, that's a possibilit=
y.</div>
<div>&gt; Although as you stated, it does complicate HW implementations and=
 this</div>
<div>&gt; is another reason for SW based implementations.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; So if there are already at this stage of S-BFD use case(s) fo=
r zero-</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; discriminator to bring up (some) sessions then I would propos=
e to</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; consider the integration into the base document. This will al=
so</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; guarantee that the zero-discriminator handling is as fast as =
the</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; &quot;normal&quot; reflection and is not on a slower exceptio=
n path.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Personally, I tend to recommend that alert discriminators are han=
dled</div>
<div>&gt; in the SW. Let's assume that you agree on this (hypothetically). =
In</div>
<div>&gt; that case, would you still recommend the alert discriminator mech=
anism</div>
<div>&gt; to be moved to the draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base or is it reasonab=
le to</div>
<div>&gt; keep it in the draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim?</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; I have a question: so far S-BFD packets would be received, no=
t</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; &quot;picked out of the data stream&quot;. Receiving could be=
 because the</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; destination IP would match or would be 127/8, the TTL would b=
e zero</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; and so on. In the security section you say ...</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Conceptually the Alert Discriminator i=
s similar to an IP Router Alert</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Option or an MPLS Router Alert Label.<=
/div>
<div>&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; ... and I wonder if you expect a node to &quot;pick&quot; S-B=
FD traffic (to the</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; reflector) with an alert-discriminator out of the data stream=
 that</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; otherwise would just pass this node?</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; I guess you don't want but I want to make sure I understand i=
t correctly.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Ah, great catch. Yes we do not want &quot;intermediate nodes&quot=
; to pick up</div>
<div>&gt; S-BFD packets with alert discriminator. So the statement regardin=
g</div>
<div>&gt; &quot;Conceptually the Alert Discriminator is similar to an IP Ro=
uter Alert</div>
<div>&gt; Option or an MPLS Router Alert Label&quot; should be re-stated an=
d clarified.</div>
<div>&gt;</div>
<div>&gt; Thanks!</div>

te:</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; [Speaking as an individual S-BFD contributor]</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; Hi BFD WG,</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; There were couple of questions I need your input on</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; (1) Should the &quot;extended&quot; S-BFD use cases move =
to</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case?</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; My opinion is yes. Once the &quot;extended&quot; S-BFD us=
e cases have been</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; incorporated into draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case, then =
we should</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; try to move draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case forward.</di=
v>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; How does the WG feel about this?</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; (2) Should the alert discriminator proposal move to</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base?</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; My opinion is no . Instead we should position this as an =
optional</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; feature of S-BFD (hence separate document than the base),=
 especially</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; considering we likely need to think through additional se=
curity</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; concerns</div>
<div>&gt;&gt; raised by this.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; A question was raised by Greg on how does a node find out=
 if the</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; target supports the optional alert discriminator or not. =
We can</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; define a mandatory diagnostic value that must be implemen=
ted when</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; the alert discriminator is implemented. One can send an S=
-BFD</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; control packet with the alert discriminator with this dia=
gnostic</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; value to check if the target supports the alert discrimin=
ator mechanism.</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; How does the WG feel about this?</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; Thanks!</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt; -Nobo</div>

Hi Nobo and Marc,

I totally agree with the proposal to keep the extended use-cases and the al=
ert discriminator mechanism in draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim.

Best regards,

Thanks for chiming in Manav, Mallik, Mach!

Mallik, please see one comment in-line.

Hi Nobo,

Agree that the Alert Discriminator must be described in a separate document=
. Since the SBFD use case document is listing out all the use cases of SBFD=
 don't you think we should at least mention  the alert discriminator functi=
on as on of the use cases and place a reference to the alert discriminator =
document in the use cases.

[NOBO] Normally:

1.      Use case document exists.

2.      Solution document exists and references the use case documents.

3.      Extension document exists and references the solution document (and=
 possibly the use case document).
So the S-BFD use case document referencing the alert discriminator document=
 will be backwards IMO. I think it is reasonable to not make any updates to=
 the S-BFD use case document, wrt mentioning of the alert discriminator use=
-cases/problems since those will be described in the alert discriminator do=
cument.

Thanks!

-Nobo

Thanks

Regards
Mallik

Subject: RE: Seeking opinions on draft-akiya-bfd-seamless-alert-discrim

Hello BFD WG,

Marc and I had some conversation on the topic of S-BFD alert discriminator =
document structure, and converged on a direction.

- We think that it is useful to describe both the problems and the solution=
 for the S-BFD alert discrimintor in a single document.
- We also think the S-BFD alert discriminator is more like an exception mec=
hanism, thus the mechanism should remain outside of the S-BFD base document=
.

Therefore, our converged recommendation to the WG is to keep the extended u=
se-cases and the alert discriminator mechanism in the draft-akiya-bfd-seaml=
ess-alert-discrim.

This also means that no further changes are needed in draft-ietf-bfd-seamle=
ss-use-case, and the draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case can progressed forwar=
d if authors feel that it is ready.

We would appreciate it if folks can chime in and state whether or not this =
is an acceptable way forward.

Thanks!

-Nobo & Marc

That's probably where our different views come from :-) I would aim to
simplify the main idea of the draft so it _can_ easily be implemented even
in hardware.
For the traceroute - my guess is TTL punts (if that mechanism to "deliver" =
is
used) happen in software as many mechanism use this "trick" but if a
hardware can handle TTL punts, it can handle the diag code as well. I don't
see the document needs to adjust for the traceroute case.
For a basic reflector task, having a zero discriminator as a default reflec=
tor
discriminator would allow for very simple implementations (we discussed a
while ago a fixed discriminator value for simple broadband modems,
remember?).
For more complex equipment and scenarios, keeping it in hardware instead
of a software punt would maintain the ability of S-BFD to go up very quickl=
y.
I tend to not see the zero discriminator as such a big exception, which may
explain my idea to integrate it into the base document. And to keep it
compatible to hardware implementations.
Assuming you want to add more "special effects" in the future I can see why
you have an extra document. I would propose to keep the zero-reflector
mentally aligned :-) with the base document and accordingly designed to
allow implementations to cover the zero-reflector together with "normal"
S-BFD
(read: may be in hardware).

Good - makes life simpler :-)

Working Group,

One of the topics broached during our status update at IETF-91 was the fate
of the BFD MPLS MIB.  (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-bfd-mpls-mib-04)

MIBs often don't get a lot of attention within IETF and there is often a
cyclic dependency issue for customer demand based on the publication of an
RFC, but no demand because there's no RFC.  

There is also the issue that while BFD for MPLS is obviously a popular
protocol and supported across multiple vendors, MIBs are being generally
supplanted by Yang.  However, existing operational infrastructure still
heavily depends on SNMP polling.

------8<---- cut here ---->8------

I would like to thus turn this into a different question:

Does your implementation provide statistics for connectivity issues in your
UI for BFD over MPLS sessions?

If so, please compare them to the performance counters in the MIB.

------8<---- cut here ---->8------

The MIB obviously covers additional information, but performance counters
are usually the primary motivator for the MIB.

Let's use these data points to discuss whether the WG will continue to spend
effort on the MIB.

-- Jeff

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

[resending as mailer complained, mail is too long; removed earlier content
as well)
Hi Nobo et al,

I have finally read the 'alert discriminator' document.

Keeping the solution aside, what makes it special that the use case cannot
be documented in 'use case' ID?
Irrespectively, while explaining the solution, the problem has to be
explained anyway.
But, when there is use case document, like other use cases, adding the use
case will be good, doesn't it?

I know it will only delay the use-case document, which I am an editor of
it.
Want to understand the rationale behind it. (Read emails, but don't think I
am convinced).

Secondly, the alert-discriminator ID specifies the 'trace' option (sec 2.2).
I am not sure if it is indeed needed as BFD was not used so far like this.
Just a simple extension or not is different matter. Whether we should be
doing it with BFD (not just S-BFD) is more important and needs to be
discussed.
And I do not think that it should be part of S-BFD use case at this point.

cheers
sam

http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/91/slides/slides-91-bfd-4.pptx

To attempt to simplify the presentation, the contentious portion of the
timers were removed from the proposal, leaving only the sequence numbering
for detecting loss of BFD async packets.

When the room was polled to see whether the draft should be adopted as a WG
item, the sense of the room was very quiet.  As promised, this is to inquire
for support for this draft on the WG mailing list to make sure the whole
group has a voice.

It should be noted that post-meeting discussion on the fate of this draft
noted that BFD authentication code points are plentiful and are available
with expert review.  Should the draft authors wish to continue this work as
Experimental, that is an option.

Working Group,

Clarifications to RFC 5884, draft-grmas-bfd-rfc5884-clarifications, was
presented at IETF-91 in Honolulu and was positively received.  We'd like to
ask the Working Group whether we should formally adopt this draft as a
Working Group item.

Please indicate your support or lack thereof to the mail list by 
December 12, 2014.  

Also, please supply feedback to the authors.  I believe the perception of
this document is that it's very nearly complete and thus should have a short
lifetime prior to publication as an RFC.

-- Jeff & Nobo.

Hi Nobo,

I am convinced. If Sam doesn=92t have any further comments I think we are g=

Hi Nobo et al,
I have finally read the 'alert discriminator' document.

[NOBO] Thanks!

Keeping the solution aside, what makes it special that the use case cannot
be documented in 'use case' ID?

[NOBO] I have flip-flopped on the document structure but here's my current =
thoughts.

Currently the S-BFD use case document describes the use cases for the core =
S-BFD functionality described in the S-BFD base document.

As you described below, we do not yet have the WG consensus on the alert di=
scriminator use cases nor the mechanism, and this is something which needs =
to get discussed more.

However, there is no reason to halt the progress of S-BFD use-case/base/ip =
documents as there is no dependency from them to the alert discriminator.

Therefore at this point it makes sense [to me] that we:
1) Progress S-BFD use-case document.
2) Progress S-BFD base/ip documents.
3) Discuss the use-cases/mechanism of the alert discriminator, without crea=
ting a dependency from (1, 2) to the alert discriminator.

Irrespectively, while explaining the solution, the problem has to be
explained anyway.

[NOBO] Agree.

But, when there is use case document, like other use cases, adding the use
case will be good, doesn't it?

[NOBO] If they are use cases for the base functionality, then definitely ye=
s. If there are use cases that require further extensions to the base funct=
ionality, then I think the answer really depends (like where we are).

I know it will only delay the use-case document, which I am an editor of it=
.
Want to understand the rationale behind it. (Read emails, but don't think I
am convinced).

[NOBO] I hope above provides more context on where we are?

Secondly, the alert-discriminator ID specifies the 'trace' option (sec 2.2)=
.
I am not sure if it is indeed needed as BFD was not used so far like this.
Just a simple extension or not is different matter. Whether we should be
doing it with BFD (not just S-BFD) is more important and needs to be
discussed.

[NOBO] Fully agree that we need to discuss above further.

And I do not think that it should be part of S-BFD use case at this point.

[NOBO] Excellent! So we are in sync about the document structure then. Let =
push proceed with this path, and spawn off a separate thread to discuss the=
 validity of the alert discriminator use-cases and the mechanism. Sounds li=
ke a plan?

Thanks!

-Nobo

cheers
sam

<div>Hi Nobo et al,</div>

<div>I have finally read the 'alert discriminator' document.</div>

<div></div>
<div>Keeping the solution aside, what makes it special that the use case ca=

<div>be documented in 'use case' ID?</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] I have flip-flopped on the document structure but here's my cur=
rent thoughts.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Currently the S-BFD use case document describes the use cases for the =
core S-BFD functionality described in the S-BFD base document.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As you described below, we do not yet have the WG consensus on the ale=
rt discriminator use cases nor the mechanism, and this is something which n=
eeds to get discussed more.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, there is no reason to halt the progress of S-BFD use-case/bas=
e/ip documents as there is no dependency from them to the alert discriminat=
or.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Therefore at this point it makes sense [to me] that we:</div>
<div>1) Progress S-BFD use-case document.</div>
<div>2) Progress S-BFD base/ip documents.</div>
<div>3) Discuss the use-cases/mechanism of the alert discriminator, without=
 creating a dependency from (1, 2) to the alert discriminator.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote id=3D"MAC_OUTLOOK_ATTRIBUTION_BLOCKQUOTE" style=3D"BORDER-LEFT:=
 #b5c4df 5 solid; PADDING:0 0 0 5; MARGIN:0 0 0 5;">
<div>Irrespectively, while explaining the solution, the problem has to be</=
div>
<div>explained anyway.</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] Agree.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote id=3D"MAC_OUTLOOK_ATTRIBUTION_BLOCKQUOTE" style=3D"BORDER-LEFT:=
 #b5c4df 5 solid; PADDING:0 0 0 5; MARGIN:0 0 0 5;">
<div>But, when there is use case document, like other use cases, adding the=
 use</div>
<div>case will be good, doesn't it?</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] If they are use cases for the base functionality, then definite=
ly yes. If there are use cases that require further extensions to the base =
functionality, then I think the answer really depends (like where we are).<=
/div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote id=3D"MAC_OUTLOOK_ATTRIBUTION_BLOCKQUOTE" style=3D"BORDER-LEFT:=
 #b5c4df 5 solid; PADDING:0 0 0 5; MARGIN:0 0 0 5;">
<div></div>
<div>I know it will only delay the use-case document, which I am an editor =
of it.</div>
<div>Want to understand the rationale behind it. (Read emails, but don't th=
ink I</div>
<div>am convinced).</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] I hope above provides more context on where we are?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote id=3D"MAC_OUTLOOK_ATTRIBUTION_BLOCKQUOTE" style=3D"BORDER-LEFT:=
 #b5c4df 5 solid; PADDING:0 0 0 5; MARGIN:0 0 0 5;">
<div></div>
<div>Secondly, the alert-discriminator ID specifies the 'trace' option (sec=
 2.2).</div>
<div>I am not sure if it is indeed needed as BFD was not used so far like t=
his.</div>
<div>Just a simple extension or not is different matter. Whether we should =
be</div>
<div>doing it with BFD (not just S-BFD) is more important and needs to be</=
div>
<div>discussed.</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] Fully agree that we need to discuss above further.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote id=3D"MAC_OUTLOOK_ATTRIBUTION_BLOCKQUOTE" style=3D"BORDER-LEFT:=
 #b5c4df 5 solid; PADDING:0 0 0 5; MARGIN:0 0 0 5;">
<div>And I do not think that it should be part of S-BFD use case at this po=
int.</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>[NOBO] Excellent! So we are in sync about the document structure then.=
 Let push proceed with this path, and spawn off a separate thread to discus=
s the validity of the alert discriminator use-cases and the mechanism. Soun=
ds like a plan?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks!</div>

Subject: Adoption poll for draft-grmas-bfd-rfc5884-clarifications (ends Dec=
ember 12, 2014)

Working Group,

Clarifications to RFC 5884, draft-grmas-bfd-rfc5884-clarifications, was
presented at IETF-91 in Honolulu and was positively received.  We'd like to
ask the Working Group whether we should formally adopt this draft as a
Working Group item.

Please indicate your support or lack thereof to the mail list by
December 12, 2014.

Also, please supply feedback to the authors.  I believe the perception of
this document is that it's very nearly complete and thus should have a shor=
t
lifetime prior to publication as an RFC.

Ah ok! I didn't know there would much worry about Alert Discriminator as =
a use case. If you say, it was not discussed much, then I am ok with =
your reasoning.

Sounds fair. Additionally, you should start discussion on alert =
discriminator as well. Feel it has usefulness.=20

Working Group,

Clarifications to RFC 5884, draft-grmas-bfd-rfc5884-clarifications, was pre=
sented at IETF-91 in Honolulu and was positively received.  We'd like to as=
k the Working Group whether we should formally adopt this draft as a Workin=

Please indicate your support or lack thereof to the mail list by December 1=
2, 2014. =20

Also, please supply feedback to the authors.  I believe the perception of t=
his document is that it's very nearly complete and thus should have a short=
 lifetime prior to publication as an RFC.

Hello Sam,

complained but still delivered the long email too :-)

I would say it's the other way around: what makes S-BFD base and use-case so 
special that we separated them?

And sure, there is a good answer: size and focus. Especially keeping focus on 
both topics - protocol and use cases - is probably easier with two documents.
But for something the size of the alert-discriminator the size is not a 
problem and for being focused it's then in favour of one single document 
(IMHO).

Splitting a small document makes it just fuzzy (my very personal opinion ;-)

Interesting point.

Hi Jeff,

I vividly remember the original intent of the stability draft was to
help debug BFD failures -- to isolate the issue at the RX or the TX
side Time stamping would have helped in debugging whether the BFD
packet was sent late, or whether the packet was sent on time and also
arrived on time but was delayed when passing it up the BFD
stack/processor (lay in the RX buffer for tad too long), etc. But then
time stamping came with its own set of issues, and was hence dropped
from the original draft.

Can the authors send a summary on the list on why time stamping was
dropped so that we're all clear on that one.

The current proposal does help but is not complete.

Assume that the RX end loses a BFD session and learns later that it
did eventually receive the missing BFD packets (based on the seq #).
How would it know which end was misbehaving? Was it a delay at the TX
side, or was it the RX that delayed passing the packets to the BFD
process(or). This is usually what we want to debug and i want to
understand how this draft with sequence numbers can unequivocally tell
me that.

I believe the work is important and addresses something thats really
required (spent too much time debugging why BFD flapped!). Clearly
what would help is putting a small section that describes how we can
use the sequence numbers to debug what and where things went wrong.

Cheers, Manav

Hello Jeff et al.,

hmm. I'm not against the adoption of this draft as a workgroup draft but - 
and I hope I don't step on anybodies toes - the draft seems to be in an early 
stage. Nor can I see much of a discussion on this list about the topic.

There are for sure some interesting aspects. If enough people consider the 
BFD session removal as relevant for RFC5884 then we have a good reason as a 
workgroup to move on. I have my doubts about the multiple session per <FEC, 
LSP> as I don't see how you tackle ECMP without multiple <LSP>. In other 
words while section 2.1 may be a correct procedure for multiple BFD sessions 
I wonder what problem you try to solve? Maybe this needs more discussion.


Long story short: while I can see this draft becoming a workgroup draft I 
find the poll - well - premature.


Regards, Marc

agree :-) we should keep the discussion alive.

well, I can see a point in having the Tx timestamps in the packet mainly for 
the purpose of knowing "this" packet was okay/not okay on the Tx side and to 
correlate it with your local Rx measurement.

And even this point is less relevant with sequence numbers as this number 
allows the identification of packets and thus the correlation of information 
from the Tx and Rx system.


Regards, Marc

Yes, this is one solution if people think BFD delay is needed. If allow to =
have Tx timestamps to be carried in the packets, seems it should be no prob=
lem to leave a seat for the Rx timestamps as well :-). After all, with both=
 Tx and Rx timestamp, it may simplify the implementation.=20

Indeed, the sequence number helps a lot for the correlation between the Tx =
and Rx system.=20

This triggers me think out there should be another solution for getting the=
 Tx and Rx timestamps without encoding the timestamps in the BFD packets. F=
or example, the Tx and Rx systems could just save timestamps locally or sen=
d them to a centralized entity and then use the sequence numbers to correla=
te them for further analyzing.

Best regards,
Mach

Hi Sam, Marc, Mallik,

Many thanks for healthy discussions.

To summarize:
- I will spawn off a separate thread for the alert discriminator soon.
- I [as individual contributor] believe draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-use-case do=
cument is now ready to progress. Authors have the ball to poke the chairs :=
)

Thanks!

-Nobo

I remember some discussion on NVO3 about how many bits it takes ;-) - could 
you send the links/draft names you are working on to this list? May be useful 
for further discussions.

The BFD wiki page has been updated with current status as seen by the WG
chairs.  The Yang design team stuff needs to be filled out a bit more, but
that coordination may go via the overall RTG area yang coordination page.

Dear All,
are we turning BFD into 1588? It does seem like that by the extent of our d=
iscussion of timestamping issue.
The PTP has two methods of measuring Resident Time, time a packet spent in =
a node (I feel that is what we're trying to measure by collecting timestamp=
s):
*       one-step - resident time measured on a packet and reported in the s=
ame packet;
*       two-step - more elaborate as it requires source port identification=
, sequence number and proper type of a packet. Residence time measured on o=
ne packet but reported in the follow-up of appropriate type.
Does that sounds like what we're discussing?

        Regards,
                Greg

Yes, this is one solution if people think BFD delay is needed. If allow to =
have Tx timestamps to be carried in the packets, seems it should be no prob=
lem to leave a seat for the Rx timestamps as well :-). After all, with both=
 Tx and Rx timestamp, it may simplify the implementation.

Indeed, the sequence number helps a lot for the correlation between the Tx =
and Rx system.

This triggers me think out there should be another solution for getting the=
 Tx and Rx timestamps without encoding the timestamps in the BFD packets. F=
or example, the Tx and Rx systems could just save timestamps locally or sen=
d them to a centralized entity and then use the sequence numbers to correla=
te them for further analyzing.

Best regards,
Mach

What does it mean (in practice) that coordination may go via RtgYangCoord?
I=B9d suggest that a first vector of coordination and alignment for BFD Yan=
g
models would be LIME <http://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/lime/charter/>, which
will kick off a design team very soon.

Thanks,

LIME and BFD will obviously end up coordinating in the end - at least if we
manage to convince ourselves that LIME covers BFD appropriately.  

But even so, I'll keep pressuring everyone (in all WG) to coordinate through
the wiki and the rtg-yang-coord mailing list.  Even this early in the Yang
efforts and it's pretty clear that many people are inventing the same
wheels. :-)

Or better -- contribute to the LIME effort to ensure (and not hope) that th=

I do see this starting to happen already, but I too sense brittleness in mu=

I completely agree with this.

Indeed! My point is that we should not reinvent an oam protocol yang model =
(like BFD's) that cannot use the generic yang oam model (from LIME) -- as t=
hat would be preventable wheel re-inventing.=20

Hi Marc,

(and we meet again! :-))

My claim is that just using sequence numbers may NOT help.

A BFD session with an interval of 33ms on router A will flap if it
does not see any BFD packet for 100ms.

Assume that the last seq number that A sees from the remote end is,
say 100. A will bring down the BFD session if it now does not see 101,
102 and 103 in the next 100ms.

Further assume that these packets were not seen by A and the session
flaps. However, we get these 3 BFD packets immediately after this flap
-- at 100ms + some_delta.

Now given just the sequence numbers its almost impossible for A to
know whether the issue was at the RX or the TX side.

Am i missing something?

Cheers, Manav

Sure, here is the link(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chen-ippm-coloring-=
based-ipfpm-framework-02) for the reference.

But here I want to say is that since we have sequence number, we may not ne=
ed the marking based solution. Suppose that someone want to monitor the del=
ay of a BFD packet , just record and save the timestamp at the Tx side, whi=
ch indexed by the sequence number. Similarly, do the same at the Rx side. T=
hen based on the timestamps from both Tx and Rx, and using the sequence num=
ber to correlate the timestamps, it can also provide a way to monitor the d=
elay of the BFD packet.=20

That means, only if there is sequence number, even if without carrying the =
timestamp in the BFD packet, BFD packet delay can be measured.=20

Best regards,
Mach

 December 12, 2014)

Hello Jeff et al.,

hmm. I'm not against the adoption of this draft as a workgroup draft but - =
and I hope I don't step on anybodies toes - the draft seems to be in an ear=
ly stage. Nor can I see much of a discussion on this list about the topic.

There are for sure some interesting aspects. If enough people consider the =
BFD session removal as relevant for RFC5884 then we have a good reason as a=
 workgroup to move on.
GVP1> The issue of BFD session removal at the egress is one of the issues t=
hat the draft attempts to clarify. But more importantly clarifying the mech=
anisms for establishing and maintaining multiple sessions per <FEC, LSP> is=
 the main motivation. Please see next point as well.

 I have my doubts about the multiple session per <FEC, LSP> as I don't see =
how you tackle ECMP without multiple <LSP>. In other words while section 2.=
1 may be a correct procedure for multiple BFD sessions I wonder what proble=
m you try to solve? Maybe this needs more discussion.
GVP1> There are no new problems that this draft attempts to solve. In parti=
cular, no claim is made to solve the problem of connectivity/ fault monitor=
ing for ECMP paths. However, the draft provides clarifies the mechanisms to=
 establish multiple sessions for the <FEC, LSP> already specified in RFC588=
4. Some implementations assumed the presence of only one session per <FEC, =
LSP> partly due to the notion that discriminators cannot be changed after a=
 session was established. This draft was an attempt at clarifying these (mi=
s)understandings.  Please note that the concept of establishing multiple se=
ssions to (possibly) track non-congruent paths was outlined in RFC5884 itse=
lf.=20
---snip from RFC5884---
   If there are multiple alternate paths from an ingress LSR to an
   egress LSR for an LDP IP FEC, LSP Ping traceroute MAY be used to
   determine each of these alternate paths.  A BFD session SHOULD be
   established for each alternate path that is discovered.
---snip from RFC5884---

Long story short: while I can see this draft becoming a workgroup draft I=20
find the poll - well - premature.

Hello Mach,
  Often (definitely more than once), we have felt the need to carry sequenc=
e numbers in BFD packets for debugging packet losses/ delayed delivery etc.=
 This extension will increase the ease of debugging BFD flaps caused due to=
 delayed delivery, silent drops etc.
Thanks
Prasad

Sure, here is the link(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chen-ippm-coloring-=
based-ipfpm-framework-02) for the reference.

But here I want to say is that since we have sequence number, we may not ne=
ed the marking based solution. Suppose that someone want to monitor the del=
ay of a BFD packet , just record and save the timestamp at the Tx side, whi=
ch indexed by the sequence number. Similarly, do the same at the Rx side. T=
hen based on the timestamps from both Tx and Rx, and using the sequence num=
ber to correlate the timestamps, it can also provide a way to monitor the d=
elay of the BFD packet.=20

That means, only if there is sequence number, even if without carrying the =
timestamp in the BFD packet, BFD packet delay can be measured.=20

Best regards,
Mach

Hi Vengada,

Let me at the outset say that i am in favor of such a draft. I think
its an important and a useful work that should be taken up by the WG.

However, i have issues in how it current stands. I think it needs a
wee bit more polishing.

There are ways to detect BFD drops but then those are implementation
specific and i will refrain from going there. So i concede that it
would help in packet losses. However i dont see this helping much in
case of delayed delivery (please see my earlier email).

Can the authors add some text on how this debugging mechanism would
work if somebody employs BFD authentication?

This will help but it won't really tell where was the delay right? And it l=

Hi Santosh,

You could use the crypto sequence numbers carried in the meticulous
cryptographic auth for detecting packet losses. However, this breaks
when you use non-meticulous crypto authentication since the sequence
number is only incremented occasionally there. This i believe is a
deal breaker since i really envision non meticulous mode to be the one
being widely deployed. In fact we were supposed to write a draft on
that and i guess it just fell through the cracks (lemme ping my
co-author on that !)

One way to solve this problem is by attaching a debug trailer that
only carries the seq numbers at the *end* of the BFD packet. This
would not be covered in the Length field carried in the BFD header but
would be accounted for in the length carried in the IP header. The
concept of attaching a trailer is documented well and is used in the
IGPs. RFC 6506 describes one such trailer for OSPFv3. The catch
however is that this debug trailer will NOT be covered by the BFD
authentication. Is this acceptable to the WG?

I think the problem of diagnosing a BFD flap becomes all the more
important with BFD authentication turned on since then we have more
points where a delay can be inserted.

Cheers, Manav

I would like to thank all for valuable comments. I think we have made enoug=
h progress now. Below are the points on which we have rough consensus .



1.       Active tail.

We have rough consensus that we can move all active tail stuff (reliable, s=
emi-reliable and non-reliable) to new draft.



2.       Demultiplexing and UDP port number.

Suggestion was made to add more text for IP demux and MPLS demux in base dr=
aft. For rest of the data plane can have their own draft.



3.       Echo mode supported?

We have rough consensus that echo mode is NOT supported.



4.        bfd.ReportTailDown directed to tail by head

How head directs tail to report down when tails detect timer expires should=
 be outside scope of this document.



5.       How packets get absorbed on tails?

This should go along with data plane. Add more text on how tail absorbs pac=
kets for IP and MPLS in base draft.



There few points which are still open.

1.       Increase interval?

Draft suggest not to use POLL sequence and suggests to increase multiplier =
first and then interval. If we have hardware implementation and don't want =
to check complete packet every time received then change in packet may be i=
ndicated with

POLL bit set. Since this is one to many mapping we can't have a complete PO=
LL sequence and hence we need to suppress FINAL. Should we be going with PO=
LL and suppress FINAL by setting desired RX interval set to 0? Please sugge=
st any better idea.



2.       Security consideration?

No suggestions.



I think I have summarized what we have discussed till now. Please let me kn=
ow if I have missed something.



Thanks

Santosh P K

Hi Santosh,

without.

Yes, it would only be in the IP header.

Agree with Santosh. This mechanism would be most needed when authentication
is turned on.

&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; Hello Mach,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; This triggers me think out there should be anot=
her solution for<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; getting the Tx and Rx timestamps without encodi=
ng the timestamps<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; in the BFD<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; packets.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; For example, the Tx and Rx systems could just s=
ave timestamps<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; locally or send them to a centralized entity an=
d then use the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; sequence numbers to correlate them for further =
analyzing.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; I remember some discussion on NVO3 about how many bi=
ts it takes<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; ;-) - could you send the links/draft names you are w=
orking on to this<br>
&gt; list?<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; May be useful for further discussions.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>

&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; But here I want to say is that since we have sequence nu=

&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; may not<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; need the marking based solution. Suppose that someone want to=
 monitor<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; the delay of a BFD packet , just record and save the timestam=
p at the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; Tx side, which indexed by the sequence number. Similarly, do =
the same<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; at the Rx side. Then based on the timestamps from both Tx and=
 Rx, and<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; using the sequence number to correlate the timestamps, it can=
 also<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; provide a way to monitor the delay of the BFD packet.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; That means, only if there is sequence number, even if wi=
thout<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; carrying the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; timestamp in the BFD packet, BFD packet delay can be measured=
.<br>

&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; Hello Manav,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; I believe the work is important and add=
resses something thats<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; really required (spent too much time de=
bugging why BFD<br>
&gt; flapped!).<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; agree :-) we should keep the discussion ali=
ve.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; side Time stamping would have helped in=
 debugging whether the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; BFD<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; packet was sent late, or whether the pa=
cket was sent on time<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; and also arrived on time but was delaye=
d when passing it up<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; the BFD stack/processor (lay in the RX =
buffer for tad too<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; long)<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; well, I can see a point in having the Tx ti=
mestamps in the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; packet mainly for the purpose of knowing &q=
uot;this&quot; packet was<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; okay/not okay on the Tx side and to correla=
te it with your local Rx<br>
&gt; measurement.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; Yes, this is one solution if people think BFD d=
elay is needed.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; If allow to have Tx timestamps to be carried in=
 the packets,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; seems it should be no problem to leave a seat f=
or the Rx<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; timestamps as well :-). After all, with both Tx=
 and Rx<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; timestamp, it may simplify the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; implementation.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; And even this point is less relevant with s=
equence numbers as<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; this number allows the identification of pa=
ckets and thus the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; correlation of information from the Tx and =
Rx system.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; Indeed, the sequence number helps a lot for the=
 correlation<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; between the Tx and Rx system.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; This triggers me think out there should be anot=
her solution for<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; getting the Tx and Rx timestamps without encodi=
ng the timestamps<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; in the BFD<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; packets.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; For example, the Tx and Rx systems could just s=
ave timestamps<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; locally or send them to a centralized entity an=
d then use the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; sequence numbers to correlate them for further =
analyzing.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>

&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; I vividly remember the original intent =
of the stability draft<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; was to help debug BFD failures -- to is=
olate the issue at the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; RX or the TX side Time stamping would h=
ave helped in debugging<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; whether the BFD packet was sent late, o=
r whether the packet<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; was sent on time and also arrived on ti=
me but was delayed when<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; passing it up the BFD stack/processor (=
lay in the RX buffer<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; for tad too long), etc. But then time s=
tamping came with its<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; own set of issues, and was hence droppe=
d from the original draft.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Can the authors send a summary on the l=
ist on why time<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; stamping was dropped so that we&#39;re =
all clear on that one.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; The current proposal does help but is n=
ot complete.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Assume that the RX end loses a BFD sess=
ion and learns later<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; that it did eventually receive the miss=
ing BFD packets (based<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; on the seq<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; #).<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; How would it know which end was misbeha=
ving? Was it a delay at<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; the TX side, or was it the RX that dela=
yed passing the packets<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; to the BFD process(or). This is usually=
 what we want to debug<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; and i want to understand how this draft=
 with sequence numbers<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; can unequivocally tell me that.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; I believe the work is important and add=
resses something thats<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; really required (spent too much time de=
bugging why BFD<br>
&gt; flapped!).<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Clearly what would help is putting a sm=
all section that<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; describes how we can use the sequence n=
umbers to debug what<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; and where<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; things went wrong.<br>

With removal of all flavors of active tails, it's definitely no longer poss=
ible to have P/F sequences. However, I do think that it's a good idea to ha=
ve an explicit indication in the packet to communicate to MultipointTail se=
ssions that the transmit timers are about to change, this is very helpful f=
or some implementations. I'm not clear on what you mean by "... by setting =
desired RX interval set to 0?". Can you elaborate?

> 2.=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 Security consideration?
> No suggestions.

Section 4.7:

   Sessions on the tail MAY be established dynamically, based on the
   receipt of a Multipoint BFD Control packet from the head, and are of
   type MultipointTail.  Tail sessions always take the Passive role.

One concerning area of this mechanism is the dynamic creation of Multipoint=
Tail sessions, as described by above text. This must not become the point o=
f DoS attack, and for that we should beef up the texts.

In Section 4.8, making the tail demux'ing more stricter may be helpful.

[OLD]
   The head sends Multipoint BFD Control packets over the MultipointHead
   session with My Discr set to a value bound to the multipoint path,
   and with Your Discr set to zero.  The tails MUST demultiplex these
   packets based on a combination of the source address and My Discr,
   which together uniquely identify the head and the multipoint path.

[NEW]
   The head sends Multipoint BFD Control packets over the MultipointHead
   session with My Discr set to a value bound to the multipoint path,
   and with Your Discr set to zero.  The tails MUST demultiplex these
   packets based on a combination of the source address, My
   Discriminator and the identity of the multicast tree which the
   Multipoint BFD Control packet was received from.  Together they
   uniquely identify the head of the multipoint path.

In Security Considerations section, texts like below may be helpful.

[NEW]
   Implementations that creates MultpointTail sessions dynamically upon
   receipt of Multipoint BFD Control packets MUST implement protective
   measures to prevent infinite number of MultipointTail session being
   created.  Below lists some points to be considered in such
   implementations.

   o  If a Multipoint BFD Control packet did not arrive on a multicast
      tree (ex: on expected interface, with expected MPLS label, etc),
      then a MultipointTail session should not be created.

   o  If redundant streams are expected for a given multicast stream,
      then the implementations should not create more MultipointTail
      sessions than the number of streams.  Additionally, when the
      number of MultipointTail sessions exceeds the number of expected
      streams, then the implementation should generate an alarm to users
      to indicate the anomaly.

   o  The implementation should have a reasonable upper bound on the
      number of MultipointTail sessions that can be created, with the
      upper bound potentially being computed based on the number of
      multicast streams that the system is expecting.

Thanks!

Hi Jeff, all,

I have been following this stability extension from the beginning, and as an
operator I would like to express that this draft enables the "advanced
feature" we desire for BFD to provide additional useful information that
helps operators understand network issues. A relevant use case is detecting
lossy or "quasi-disconnected" links or member LAG links. An example of such
situation we experienced was a loosely connected fiber link resulting in
continuous, small amount of packet loss. BFD could get the information of
lost BFD frames on such unstable link, and probably report when a target
level is reached, say a certain number of frames are lost over a period or
among a total number of frames.

Best regards,
Peng

Hi Peng,

If the BFD packets are lost, doesn=92t the BFD session go DOWN? Are you say=
ing that packet loss is not big enough to make BFD session go DOWN?

Thanks

Exactly. Packets may be experiencing slight loss, but the link can hardly be
regarded as connected. More importantly, the experience of upper-level
applications can be degraded severely (e.g. TCP traffic is not able to go
fast in face of even small continuous loss). But what if one BFD frame is
lost every three frames? Then the loss rate is 30% on average, which is
already a very severe value.

 

Best regards,

Peng

Hi Peng,

 

If the BFD packets are lost, doesn't the BFD session go DOWN? Are you saying
that packet loss is not big enough to make BFD session go DOWN?

 

Thanks

Mallik

Hi Jeff, all,

 

I have been following this stability extension from the beginning, and as an

operator I would like to express that this draft enables the "advanced

feature" we desire for BFD to provide additional useful information that

helps operators understand network issues. A relevant use case is detecting

lossy or "quasi-disconnected" links or member LAG links. An example of such

situation we experienced was a loosely connected fiber link resulting in

continuous, small amount of packet loss. BFD could get the information of

lost BFD frames on such unstable link, and probably report when a target

level is reached, say a certain number of frames are lost over a period or

among a total number of frames.

 

Best regards,

Peng

>=20

We do not really want to have complete POLL sequence with many to one mappi=
ng. So we somehow need to indicate to tails that packet has changed. Only p=
ossible way today is with POLL bit set, one way to suppress FINAL being gen=
erated from tail is to have desired RX interval to 0. This is something whi=
ch goes against RFC 5880 where it says POLL should have FINAL in reply. I w=
anted to know if WG has any other alternative solution or if it ok to suppr=
ess FINAL. =20

 These suggestion are good, I will add this text in draft.=20

To me, having sufficient texts to describe MultipointHead sending P bit and=
 MultipointTail suppressing F bit (since it never sends BFD packets to head=
) is sufficient. In other words, I don't see a need to tweak other bits to =
make sure that MultipointTail sessions do not send F bit. The only other po=
int to consider is, how long does MultipointHead wait before applying the c=
hange.

If we take an extreme example:
- Current interval is 15 ms.
- Current detection multiplier is 3.
- MultipointHead wants to change the interval to 2 sec.
- MultipointHead sends P bit in next 3 BFD packets (3 x 15ms).
- MultipointHead update the interval to 2 sec.
- MultipointTail does not receive the first 2 P bit (for whatever reason) b=
ut receives the last P bit.

Now MultipointTail has 45ms to update the detection timer (since next packe=
t is expected 2 sec later).
Under scaled number of sessions, does this raise any concerns to implementa=
tions?

In other words:
- Should MultipointHead send P bit set in next "multiplier" number of packe=
ts and change the interval at that point?
- Should the document specify a minimal time (say 1 second) before Multipoi=
ntHead can change the interval?

Something to think about in implementations.

The poll is for adoption.  The document is done when it is done.  It's my
personal expectation that its life in draft form is short, not the WG's.

If you have feedback that suggests need for additional work, that's exactly
the kind of thing I'm suggesting you contribute!

Hi Peng,
this is very interesting scenario. I think that if BFD experiences ~30% pac=
ket loss, then highly likely so are affected other applications. Then it is=
 not just BFD issue but condition that should be detected  by performance m=
easurement method, whether active or passive packet loss measurement.
I'm convinced that overloading BFD with performance measurement provisions =
is counter-productive and is inappropriate.

                Regards,
                                Greg

Hi Mallik,

Exactly. Packets may be experiencing slight loss, but the link can hardly b=
e regarded as connected. More importantly, the experience of upper-level ap=
plications can be degraded severely (e.g. TCP traffic is not able to go fas=
t in face of even small continuous loss). But what if one BFD frame is lost=
 every three frames? Then the loss rate is 30% on average, which is already=
 a very severe value.

Best regards,
Peng

Hi Peng,

If the BFD packets are lost, doesn't the BFD session go DOWN? Are you sayin=
g that packet loss is not big enough to make BFD session go DOWN?

Thanks

Mallik

Subject: RE: BFD stability follow-up from IETF-91

Hi Jeff, all,

I have been following this stability extension from the beginning, and as a=
n
operator I would like to express that this draft enables the "advanced
feature" we desire for BFD to provide additional useful information that
helps operators understand network issues. A relevant use case is detecting
lossy or "quasi-disconnected" links or member LAG links. An example of such
situation we experienced was a loosely connected fiber link resulting in
continuous, small amount of packet loss. BFD could get the information of
lost BFD frames on such unstable link, and probably report when a target
level is reached, say a certain number of frames are lost over a period or
among a total number of frames.

Best regards,
Peng

My opinion is about halfway between your opinion, Greg.

I agree that we wish to be very cautious about overloading BFD with
components that are in other OAM mechanisms.  Among my desire for such
caution is that IEEE has expressed interest in not having us step on their
technologies and this would create paperwork for the chairs. :-)

But where I think we diverge slightly comes from experience in helping the
working group and vendors wend their way through implementing BFD for LAG.
During that discussion, it was very clear that depending on the vendor, the
architecture and sometimes specific chipsets that "BFD" lived in very
different pieces of underlying architecture.

What this means is that trying to do very tight timing things will run into
practical issues in having to figure out what the perspective of the timings
are.  Is it some underlying L2? L3? Something between?  At what point do you
realize you are measuring contradictory things?

But similarly, when trying to measure and account for loss, having some data
is useful simply because it helps you determine that the component that is
*responsible for BFD* may be experiencing loss.  Depending on your
architecture, this may be the underlying layer-1, layer-2 or something else.
In such cases, the lower-layer OAM is better to troubleshoot.  But in cases
where your lower-layer OAM doesn't indicate the loss, you still need to
understand that there is BFD-level loss.

I encourage participants in this discussion to remember this detail: We are
trying to help measure BFD loss.  Trying to read too much detail into what
that means outside of BFD may lead you to erroneous conclusions depending on
a given implementation.

Thus, consider what is best for BFD.

Hi Jeff,
I absolutely agree with continuing discussion and sharing experiences from =
real-life deployments and interoperability of BFD in IP and MPLS networks, =
single-, multi-hop and over LAG constituents. From that we're learning and =
that helps us make our implementations more robust, reliable, and interoper=
able. And certainly, where it benefits the community informational RFCs, li=
ke BFD intervals or RFC 7325 MPLS Forwarding Compliance and Performance Req=
uirements, to document the cases and our recommendations. But I'm somewhat =
concerned with anything that targets standard status, even as optional func=
tionality, even though it is not proven that the problem is in the standard=
, not in an implementation.

	Regards,
		Greg

We are surely removing active tail but only form this draft right. Meaning =
we will still have active tail in  extended draft. So can we really rule ou=
t that tail will not reply to head at all?=20

This is really a good point. I think we should have a suggestion where it b=
alances between number of POLL sent and how long does it wait before changi=
ng the timer. We should not end up sending too many POLL packets to tail as=
 some implementation might end up sending all POLL packets to software. Do =
you agree?=20

How about suggesting that we should first send POLL till detect time and po=
st that head sends regular packet without POLL with the same rate (in this =
example 15ms) for next detect time and only then fall to higher interval? A=
ny other suggestions?=20

Yes, we need to add suggestions for implementation.

 Any other suggestions?

Sorry to make you repeat,  but can you please clarify the above? Do you mea=
n to say (assuming a detect multiplier of 3) that the head sends 3 packet w=
ith Poll bit set AND 3 more packets without it set (in effect 6 packets at =
15 ms)?
Thanks
Prasad

This is really a good point. I think we should have a suggestion where it b=
alances between number of POLL sent and how long does it wait before changi=
ng the timer. We should not end up sending too many POLL packets to tail as=
 some implementation might end up sending all POLL packets to software. Do =
you agree?=20

How about suggesting that we should first send POLL till detect time and po=
st that head sends regular packet without POLL with the same rate (in this =
example 15ms) for next detect time and only then fall to higher interval? A=
ny other suggestions?=20

Yes, we need to add suggestions for implementation.

Yes, that's correct. I know this not as per RFC 5880 but is this ok for WG?=
 If not any better solution?=20

I would reword that slightly differently.

Before the MultipointHead changes it's transmit interval:

- The MultipointHead MUST send BFD packets "detect mult" times with P bit s=
et, via transmit interval timer expiry.
- The MultipointHead MAY wait also wait some amount of time before making t=
he changes to the transmit interval (this can be configured, but ultimately=
 out of scope).

When the interval is slowing down, then:

- The MultipointHead SHOULD gradually slow down the transmit interval.

Something like that.

Thanks!

For slowing down interval we should fall to faster interval faster. For wor=
dings you suggested was exactly what I thought. We don't want to mandate ho=
w an head implementation MUST behave during interval but we can give sugges=
tion in the draft.=20

For slowing down interval we should fall to faster interval faster. For wor=
