I'm calling this out because in 99% of the cases the Metric will be =

"RPF Vector" needs to be changed to "Explicit RPF Vector", is that what =

Hi,

         Few replies in line with <Bharat>.

Do you see an issue that needs to be clarified specific to this?

<Bharat>: I think there is a need simply because there are multiple join =
attributes. As this new join attribute does not put any restriction on ho=
w the multiple join attributes are used, I think it will be good to add s=
ome text on this.

>> =95 In security consideration, should not we also mention that Explici=
t RPF Vector Attribute itself does not add any security implications on P=
IM-SM functioning.

"RPF Vector" needs to be changed to "Explicit RPF Vector", is that what y=
ou mean?

<Bharat>: What I was trying to say is that we should add some text which =
reflects that adding a new join attribute does not add any new security i=
ssues for PIM. But if you think that current one is sufficient so let us =
stick to that till the IESG suggest something.

I don't think it needs to say more then RFC 5496 already does.

Hi,

     I was going through the drafts submitted to PIM working group and ca=
me across two drafts that propose the solution to support multiple upstre=
am interface in IGMP/MLD proxy.

     I have couple of question on this:

1. Something similar already exist and being used by the operators. Are w=
e trying to standardize this?

2. As this is device specific, won't a simple configuration is enough? Th=
e configuration could be vendor specific as there is no protocol interact=
ion required. As far as I know, this is exactly what some of the vendors =
that implement this, used.

Regards,
Bharat

Hi,

      I was reading up RFC 6754 to understand the requirement and solutio=
n proposed for ECMP routes handling and I have some basic questions. It w=
ould be great if someone can asnwer them for me.

Regards,
Bharat

=95 In section 1, in sentence:

This document introduces the ECMP Redirect, a mechanism to improve the RP=
F procedure over ECMP.

     I did not get what does the term 'RPF procedure over ECMP' actually =
means? Can somebody please elaborate the same?

=95 In section 1, in sentence:

While implementations supporting ECMP have been deployed widely, the exis=
ting RPF selection methods have weaknesses

     Should 'RPF selection' be 'Upstream PIM neighbor selection'?

=95 In section 1, in sentence

For example, there is no straightforward way to tell two downstream route=
rs to select either the same or different RPF neighbor routers for the sa=
me traffic flows.

     What are the conditions where downstream routers would want to choos=
e two different RPF neighbors for the same traffic flows? I was thinking =
that we need some method like a hash to make sure that all downstream rou=
ter uses the same upstream neighbor so that only one router forwards traf=
fic for a given channel. This will also avoid need for assert messages in=
 such scenarios.

=95 In Overview, in sentence

When the RPF neighbor router receives the Join message and finds that the=
 receiving interface is one of the ECMP interfaces, it will check if the =
same flow is already being forwarded out of another ECMP interface.

     How does a upstream router figures out that the receiving interface =
is one of the ECMP interfaces for the downstream router?

     Also, it is not clear how the upstream route can check if the same f=
low is being forwarded out of another ECMP interfaces? Are these interfac=
es pointing to the same LAN?

      Let me try to put a figure and ask this.

       +------+          +-----+
        |  R1   |            |  R2 |
       +------+          +-----+
            |                     |
  +-----------------------------------+ 
            |                     |             
       +------+          +-----+
        |  R3   |            |  R4 |
       +------+          +-----+

In above configuration, how R1 would come to know if R3 has an ECMP route=
 for a source/RP through both R1 and R2? Also, if there is a flow already=
 exist through R2, how will R1 come that the flow is because of the ECMP =
route in R3 and R4?

Am I missing something here?

=95 Its not clear how will the routers (R1 to R4) create ECMP bundle? Is =
it that in this particular case, there will only be one interface in that=
 ECMP bundle?

=95 It would have been great if a figure was used to describe the operati=
ons. I know its my limitation as I am not able to understand the text cor=
rectly.

In Orlando the previous version of this draft,
draft-liu-multimob-igmp-mld-wireless-mobile-03, was presented. It was
concluded that IGMP suspend/resume should be removed from the draft.
We asked if the WG should take on this work if this was removed, and
we had 3 in support, none against.

We now have the new version which has removed this, and we are now
starting an adoption call.

Please read
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-liu-multimob-igmp-mld-wireless-mobile-04
and state your opinion.

The adoption call ends Thursday July 18th.

Stig

Subject: Draft submission deadlines change

From: IETF Chair <chair@ietf.org>
Reply-To: ietf@ietf.org
To: IETF Announcement List <ietf-announce@ietf.org>

Please note that for IETF 87, there is only one deadline for draft 
submission: Monday 15th July. Previously, there had been two different 
deadlines, one for -00 and another one for other versions. The IESG has 
decided to experiment with just one deadline for now to simplify the set 
of deadlines and enable easier submission of new drafts. While we 
realise that the change comes near the deadline, we hope that you find 
the extra time useful.

But please do note that working group chairs will continue to make smart 
decisions about what topics are worthwhile for discussing in a session 
in the upcoming meeting, and will also set their agendas in a timely 
manner and create deadlines for their working groups that must be 
adhered to. The earlier new drafts are submitted, the more time there is 
to talk about them on the mailing lists and consider them for the 
session agendas. This is particularly important for BoFs.

Hi All,

       I just submitted the below draft to propose a standard mechanism t=
o identify a PIM neighbor for a multicast channel when an ECMP route is u=
sed for a source/RP.

       Please review the same and let us know your comments.

Regards,
Bharat

Abstract:
   A Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) router uses local forwarding
   table to select the upstream PIM neighbor towards the source or
   Rendezvous Point (RP).  A router need to choose one upstream PIM
   neighbor from the list of PIM neighbors if the route for a source or
   RP is an Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) route.  Currently PIM routers
   use vendor specific algorithm to choose one neighbor.  This may lead
   to unnecessary wastage of network resources.  This draft first
   explains the need for a standard algorithm to select a PIM neighbor
   with ECMP route and then suggest such an algorithm.

	Title           : IGMP/MLD-Based Explicit Membership Tracking Function for=
 Multicast Routers
	Author(s)       : Hitoshi Asaeda
	Filename        : draft-ietf-pim-explicit-tracking-06.txt
	Pages           : 10
	Date            : 2013-07-15

Abstract:
   This document describes the IGMP/MLD-based explicit membership
   tracking function for multicast routers supporting IGMPv3/MLDv2.  The
   explicit membership tracking function contributes to saving network
   resources and shortening leave latency, and enables operators to see
   which downstream routers(s) on a LAN are joined to which multicast
   tree.

Hi

We're about to send this document off to the IESG. The only issue is
that all the authors are supposed to state whether they are aware of
any IPRs. In this case we have been unable to reach one of the authors.
This is just a survey report though and there is nothing to implement.
I find it hard to believe that there can be any IPRs on this document.

If anyone has any concerns about this, please speak up by Wednesday.
I'll send it off to the IESG on Thursday unless there are concerns.

Stig

We haven't had a single response to this adoption call. We need
responses to this call by end of tomorrow!

We need to know that there is interest in a draft in order to adopt it.
If there is no interest, then the topic doesn't seem very important,
and we cannot know that there are members in the group that want to
contribute.

So please respond and state whether you think we should work on this
by tomorrow.

Stig

Hi PIM working group,

Can I ask for some volunteers to look at "Multicast Mobility Routing
Optimizations for Proxy Mobile IPv6"
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-multimob-pmipv6-ropt/

This document made it through IETF last call and arrived at the IESG without
having been shown to the PIM working group. I have deferred the document to give
a little time for me to get your input. Please send comments to me direct or
copying the IESG and the draft authors. 

Thanks,
Adrian

Subject: Some questions on RFC 6754

Hi,

      I was reading up RFC 6754 to understand the requirement and solutio=
n proposed for ECMP routes handling and I have some basic questions. It w=
ould be great if someone can asnwer them for me.

Regards,
Bharat

=95 In section 1, in sentence:

This document introduces the ECMP Redirect, a mechanism to improve the RP=
F procedure over ECMP.

     I did not get what does the term 'RPF procedure over ECMP' actually =
means? Can somebody please elaborate the same?

=95 In section 1, in sentence:

While implementations supporting ECMP have been deployed widely, the exis=
ting RPF selection methods have weaknesses

     Should 'RPF selection' be 'Upstream PIM neighbor selection'?

=95 In section 1, in sentence

For example, there is no straightforward way to tell two downstream route=
rs to select either the same or different RPF neighbor routers for the sa=
me traffic flows.

     What are the conditions where downstream routers would want to choos=
e two different RPF neighbors for the same traffic flows? I was thinking =
that we need some method like a hash to make sure that all downstream rou=
ter uses the same upstream neighbor so that only one router forwards traf=
fic for a given channel. This will also avoid need for assert messages in=
 such scenarios.

=95 In Overview, in sentence

When the RPF neighbor router receives the Join message and finds that the=
 receiving interface is one of the ECMP interfaces, it will check if the =
same flow is already being forwarded out of another ECMP interface.

     How does a upstream router figures out that the receiving interface =
is one of the ECMP interfaces for the downstream router?

     Also, it is not clear how the upstream route can check if the same f=
low is being forwarded out of another ECMP interfaces? Are these interfac=
es pointing to the same LAN?

      Let me try to put a figure and ask this.

       +------+          +-----+
        |  R1   |            |  R2 |
       +------+          +-----+
            |                     |
  +-----------------------------------+
            |                     |
       +------+          +-----+
        |  R3   |            |  R4 |
       +------+          +-----+

In above configuration, how R1 would come to know if R3 has an ECMP route=
 for a source/RP through both R1 and R2? Also, if there is a flow already=
 exist through R2, how will R1 come that the flow is because of the ECMP =
route in R3 and R4?

Am I missing something here?

=95 Its not clear how will the routers (R1 to R4) create ECMP bundle? Is =
it that in this particular case, there will only be one interface in that=
 ECMP bundle?

=95 It would have been great if a figure was used to describe the operati=
ons. I know its my limitation as I am not able to understand the text cor=
rectly.

Subject: Few questions/suggestion on DR Load Balancing draft

Hi,

       I just read through the DR Load Balancing draft. I have few questi=
ons/suggestion below.

Regards,
Bharat

=95 In Abstract, s/as an Ethernet/as Ethernet/g. This seems to be at coup=
le of places.

=95 Are 'first hop network' or 'last hop LAN' a well known term? Will it =
be easy for people to understand that this is being talked from multicast=
 source perspective? Can we call them directly connected LAN in both the =
cases?

=95 In Abstract, s/is operated in PIM SM/is operating in PIM SM/g. This i=
s at least at two places.

=95 In Abstract, in following sentence:

On the last hop network, the PIM DR is responsible for tracking local mul=
ticast listeners and forwarding traffic to these listeners if the group i=
s operated in PIM SM/SSM/DM.

Should we mentioning BIDIR-PIM as well in this list? Or such a group is t=
reated differently?

=95 In Abstract, s/can be distributed to and handled among these/can be d=
istributed among these/

=95 In GDR definition, it talks about that GDR is responsible for a group=
. Does this mean that a single GDR will be responsible for all channels (=
S,G) for a given group but different sources?

=95 s/process received new PIM Hello/process new PIM Hello/

=95 In Introduction, in following sentence:

According to [RFC4601], R1 will be responsible for forwarding to the last=
 hop LAN.

       Can we replace this sentence by something similar to a sentence fr=
om RFC 4601, section 6.1.1 point 2. The sentence is as follows:

The designated router on a LAN is (in the absence of asserts) responsible=
 for forwarding traffic to that LAN on behalf of any local members.

=95 There may be a mix of local hosts as well as downstream routers in a =
network scenario. Do we still call this the last hop LAN? I guess yes and=
 I think there can still be GDR candidate and this draft can apply. Right=
? I think this is not coming out well in the draft. So please add/update =
some text to reflect this.

=95 In section 3, I did not get what 'load balancing' are we talking abou=
t in case of 'first hop routers'?

=95 In section 3, I also did not understand how ECMP helps in this load b=
alancing. If there are multiple routers on a LAN in which the source also=
 sits, as per PIM, its the DR who is to send the register messages to the=
 RP. So I am not sure how ECMP helps here in making other router on this =
LAN to do this instead of the DR?

=95 As per RFC 4601, PIM DR is elected for any type of networks so there =
is no need to mention that PIM DR election is done in a multi-access netw=
ork.

=95 In section 4, in sentence "The PIM DR is responsible for sending Join=
/Prune messages to the RP or source.", I think we should mention that thi=
s is done for the local host's join/leave.

=95 In section 4, para 1, I think it should be enough if the text suggest=
 that PIM DR election is done as per RFC 4601 instead of describing the a=
lgorithm here.

=95 s/routers support this specification/routers which support this speci=
fication/

=95 In section 4, can we reword the following sentence:

Last hop routers who are with the new LBC TLV and with the same DR priori=
ty as the PIM DR are GDR Candidates.

to

Last hop routers which supports the 'Load Balancing Capability' PIM hello=
 option and uses the same DR priority as the PIM DR, are considered to be=
 GDR Candidates.

=95 In section 4, last para, can we clearly mention that we are referring=
 to groups joined by local members only.

=95 I think section 4.2 should be divided into two, one that defined hash=
 mask and another that defines the hash function.

=95 Apart from the hash value/function, cannot an administrator configure=
 the mapping statically? This way, an administrator will have more contro=
l on which channel is registered by which DR and also, he won't need thes=
e new hello options. I agree that such a thing will work only if all vend=
ors provide such a mean to the administrators.

=95 In section 4.3, its not clear what will be the contents of first PIM =
hello message of a router coming up? Will it contain LB GDR option or not=
? At that time, it may not know whether its a DR or not. Actually, it wil=
l assume that its the DR until it receives a hello message from a higher =
DR priority router.

=95 In section 5.2, should we be using encoded format defined in RFC 4601=
 for GDR addresses or using it in native format is fine?

=95 What is the idea of sending the masks from PIM DR to other routers? W=
hy cannot they be configured in all the routers?

=95 s/When an IGMP join is received/When an IGMP/MLD join is received/

=95 s/a neighbor Hello with/a PIM Hello with/

=95 What happens when a PIM router supporting this new options times out =
in PIM DR router?

=95 Does PIM DR insert its own address as well in the neighbor's address =
into the LBGRD TLV list?

=95 In section 6.2, first para talks about router R1. Is it referring to =
figure 1?

=95 In section 6.2, should not we mention what a GDR candidate does when =
a PIM hello from PIM DR is received? I think few last paras at the end of=
 this section should be in the front. Please check.

=95 s/from a non-DR PIM router/from a PIM router which is not DR/

=95 In section 6.2, its not clear if the hash is calculated only for 'X' =
or for all the GDR available in the list. I think it needs to be calculat=
ed for all of them and then if hash is highest for 'X', its selected, oth=
erwise not.

=95 In section 6.3, in case of PIM assert, should not we override the exi=
sting Assert algorithm completely and suggest that the winner should be s=
elected based on the currently selected GDR?

=95 What happens when a new router comes up which becomes the DR but does=
 not support this new PIM hello option?

=95 What is the need of sending out the list of GDR by PIM DR to other ro=
uters? Other routers can anyway figure this out because they also receive=
 the PIM hello from other routers. Right?

=95 In section 8, "PIM DR Load Balancing Hello message", does not look ri=
ght.

As no one has raised any concerns I'll send it off. But still let me
know if you have concerns.

[heidi] "RPF procedure" means the algorithm a router runs to find the
[heidi] RPF neighbor for a source or RP. The steps include routing table
[heidi] lookups and tie break evaluation.

[heidi] The same meaning.

[heidi] Please refer to the IETF 80 proceedings for more background
information.=20
[heidi] But in short, due to different implementations deployed, different
tie-break=20
[heidi] algorithms used and/or policies configured, two routers might very
well choose=20
[heidi] different RPF neighbors. It is not common but it happens.

[heidi] If the router sees Join on an interface, and the interface is one
[heidi] of those in the ECMP bundle, the interface is one of the ECMP
interface.

[heidi] The ECMP bundles contain interfaces on different LANs. In the
digram
[heidi] you drew above, all routers are connected to the same LAN, regular
PIM=20
[heidi] Assert will take place to determine RPF path.

I understand 'RPF procedure' but your explanation above is still not enou=
gh to explain what does 'RPF procedure over ECMP' means?

My thinking was that this RFC has proposed a mechanism (ECMP redirect) to=
 suggest downstream neighbors to select another upstream neighbor for its=
 PIM join. I am not sure how it "improces" the RPF procedure over ECMP. I=
t bascially direct the downstream neighbor to use another neighbor. Right=
?

IMHO, we are selecting upstream PIM neighbor. RPF is a method to do that.=

I perfectly understand the reason for selecting two different upstream ne=
ighbors but that issue can be resolved by using a simple hash algorithm i=
nstead of adding this new PIM ECMP redirect message. In fact, I was looki=
ng for such a solution and when I found this RFC solves a different issue=
, I have submitted a very small draft to solve this. Please do review the=
 draft at http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-joshi-pim-ecmp-neighbor-select=
-00=FD

Please bear with me but I still do not understand. How the upstream route=
r will be able to find out if downstream router has an ECMP route for a s=
pecific source/RP?

I sincerely feel that RFC is not clear enough on how this is done? In fac=
t, I was later looking at AD and IESG comments and I see that Stewart had=
 the same doubt. Please find his question submitted on '2012-06-20' at ht=
tp://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc6754/history/ Unfortunately, I could not=
 find the author's response for his questions and so I asked here.

It is not clear from the text in RFC that we are talking about two differ=
ent LANs. In fact, when I looked through the mailing list, I found an e-m=
ail from Adrain who has a similar issue. E-mail is at http://www.ietf.org=
/mail-archive/web/pim/current/msg02396.html.

Overall, IMHO I feel that the text in this RFC needs improvement to clear=
ly define the network configuration it is aimed for. A figure explainging=
 the same will be very helpful. I am not sure if it will be good to file =
an Errata to cleear this confusion or not. I will leave this to Working-G=
roup Chair to decide.

Hi Mike,

      I just read through this draft.

      I agree with the problem this draft is trying to solve in theory so=
 I support its adoption. However I have few questions/suggestions on this=
 draft:

=95 A nicely written draft.

=95 It would be great if we can add an example of how this will be used f=
or one of the existing join attribute or if there is any other use case f=
or this.

=95 In section 3, "using the encoding in Section 4" -> "using the encodin=
g defined in Section 4"

=95 "message with Join/Prune attributes encoded" -> "message with Hierarc=
hical Join/Prune attributes encoded"

=95 I think this draft should also point out how the existing join attrib=
ute will use this and how some of the functions like join suppression wil=
l be handled if the attribute uses this hierarchical join/prune attribute=
. For example, if a join has RPF vector attribute at group-set level as w=
ell as source level. Now if another router sees this join, should it supp=
ress its join even if it uses a different value in RPF vector attribute a=
t group set but same RPF vector at source level?

Regards,
Bharat

We haven't had a single response to this adoption call. We need responses t=
o this call by end of tomorrow!

We need to know that there is interest in a draft in order to adopt it.
If there is no interest, then the topic doesn't seem very important, and we=
 cannot know that there are members in the group that want to contribute.

So please respond and state whether you think we should work on this by tom=
orrow.

Stig

I am not sure how it solves the PIM Assert problem. In fact, If my understa=
nding is correct, I think the PIM assert problem is not there at all. Let u=
s assume that there are two LANs. One downstream router sends PIM join on o=
ne LAN while another downstream router sends it on another LAN to the same =
upstream router. With this, there will be packets on both the LAN. But as t=
hey are two different LANs, PIM assert won't trigger. Right? Am I missing s=
omething here?

It would have been really good if we would have added some of the use cases=
 and discussions in the RFC to explain various rationale.

I think PIM assert was introduced to solve this problem. In a steady state =
when routing has converged, there are small chances that downstream routers=
 will pick up different upstream routers. But this problem becomes acute wh=
en a ECMP route exists and there is no standard way to decide which upstrea=
m router to pick.

When a PIM join is received by upstream router, it cannot tell whether it w=
as chosen based on a single-gateway route or a ECMP route. So in my opinion=
, it is difficult for upstream router to decide whether it should ask the d=
ownstream router to choose another upstream router or not.

So in my opinion downstream routers should figure out the same upstream nei=
ghbor when using a ECMP route using a standard algorithm. This does not sol=
ve the problem completely. The problem still remains because another downst=
ream router can choose a different upstream router because of errorneous im=
plementation, not-using-standard-algorith, not-having-ECMP-route etc.. This=
 brings us back to the need of PIM assert.

If we want to solve this problem completely, we need changes in PIM protoco=
l itself.

I am sorry that I assumed few things here. I went back to the RFC and read =
the definition of ECMP bundle once more.

It clearly says that it is configured by the administrator and it must have=
 the same route metric. Now I understand how upstream router can figure thi=
s out.

Thanks for your patience.

IMHO, it is not clear enough. 'ECMP interfaces' does not give the indicatio=
n that we are talking about those interfaces that are connecting the same d=
evices in two different broadcast domain and has the same metric.

Yes. I again read through the same and understand what you are suggesting.

Please note that I am not saying there is anything wrong here. What I am pr=
oposing is that if there is a way to make it more readable and lucid for pe=
ople to follow. It may be something to do with me also.

Once again thanks for your replies.

Hi Authors,

       I read through this draft. I think its ready to more to the next s=
tage. However I have some small questions/suggestions below.

Regards,
Bharat

=95 In Introduction, last para, "that the Explicit RPF Vector join may" -=
> "that the PIM join may"

=95 In section 8, as mentioned before, metric may not be zero. Even then =
do we not want to use metric here? BTW, I wanted to understand why do you=
 want to give special mention for this here. Even if metric is zero, PIM =
assert uses preference and IP address as well so whether we use metric or=
 not, the outcome will remain same. Or am I missing something here?

=95 In section 8, in following sentence:

There is minor behavioral difference, the routing protocol's Metric that =
is included in the PIM Assert should be taken from the first Explicit vec=
tor in the list.

       Did you mean 'route metric' instead of routing protocol's Metric h=
ere. Also, sentence seems to suggest that routing protocol metric is avai=
lable in the Explicit vector in the list. Can you please reword it accord=
ingly?

=95 How does PIM prune override works? If override is supported, will all=
 PIM routers that have joined a group will override this prune. I checked=
 RFC 5384 and that does not mention this.

=95 Section 10, in title, 'Explicit Vector' -> 'Explicit RPF Vector'. Ple=
ase fix this in the text of this section as well.

=95 Please read through Section 10 once. There is some conflict coming th=
e way third sentence is framed. The second sentence using 'will not be ab=
le to remove' does not look correct.

=95 In section 12, "the RPF Vector attribute" -> "the Explicit RPF Vector=
 attribute"

Hi Bharat,

Sorry for my late response. Regarding your two questions on the topic:

> 1. Something similar already exist and being used by the operators. Are w=
e trying to standardize this?
Having more than one upstream interface for IGMP/MLD proxy is not standard =
today. As you mention, if this feature is something being used today throug=
h some proprietary mechanism, this reveals the interest on the topic. Netwo=
rk operators definitely support standard solutions rather that proprietary =
mechanism. So, in my opinion, it is worthy to work on an standard solution =
for this. In draft-contreras-pim-multiple-upstreams-00 there are a number o=
f potential scenarios of usage for this feature. Probably some others can b=
e identified and added.

> 2. As this is device specific, won't a simple configuration is enough? Th=
e configuration could be vendor specific as there is no protocol interactio=
n required. As far as I know, this is exactly what some of the vendors that=
 implement this, used.
There are existing proposal for automating the upstream selection process, =
as described in section 5.1 of draft-ietf-multimob-pmipv6-ropt-07. Other sc=
enarios are also susceptible of such dynamic selection.

Best regards,

Luis

Dear all,

This is to announce that the draft-contreras-pim-multiple-upstreams have be=
en already submitted to the PIM WG as mentioned during the last IETF meetin=
g  in Orlando. This draft was originally submitted to the multimob WG but p=
resented to the PIM WG as well during the last two IETF meetings.

The draft can be found in https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-contreras-=
pim-multiple-upstreams/

Any comment is welcome.

Best regards,

Luis

I am yet to read through any of the drafts. Before getting into that, I w=
anted to understand the need for the standardization of this purely becau=
se:

1. A solution already exist and different vendors have implemented it (di=
fferently) and deployed it.
2. I cannot see how a standard solution will be better when this does not=
 involve more than one router.

So what if configuration is vendor specific? Our requirement is to choose=
 a specific upstream interface for a specific group. Right? This can be d=
one with whatever vendors support today. So what I am not able to underst=
and is that why do we need a standard algorithm to do this?

Hi Luis,


        As mentioned before, I am not against standardizing this, I am just=
 trying to understand the need.

        My thinking is that we can standardize the external visibility of a=
 feature and how it should behave. I am not sure whether we can really stan=
dardize the configuration for a feature or how a particular feature is impl=
emented internally by a router. But yes, there can surely be a guidance giv=
en to help implementer and administrator.

        Please see in line with <Bharat>.

Regards,
Bharat

Hi Bharat,

About your comments.

The usefulness of an standardized feature is that the expected behavior is =
the same even if implemented by different vendors. The network operator doe=
s not need to adapt to particular solutions, but to well defined and generi=
c ones. No particular hidden problems nor issues. Also thanks to the standa=
rd behavior, the hardware from a vendor can be substituted by other in the =
future (for instance, due to obsolescence) without need of re-customizing t=
he network. This clearly reduces operational costs.

Even if only one router is involved in the implementation of this feature, =
there are some issues to address (as per comparison with RFC4605 contents):
.- membership database structure: now more information would be needed beca=
use more than one upstream interface is in place.

<Bharat>: As its already implemented by vendors, its been taken care. But I=
 agree that there is some more state/information to be maintained.

.- operation with IGMP and MLD: separate upstream for each of them? Separat=
ed versions of protocols for each upstream interface?

<Bharat>: Yes. Again, this could be decided based on the configuration. The=
y both can use same or different upstream interfaces.

.- loop prevention: think that you can find chained IGMP/MLD proxies in som=
e deployments.

<Bharat>: Currently, this is mostly taken care by network design and config=
uration. This is something which I would like to know more about.

.- multicast sender support: what is the process for selecting the appropri=
ate upstream interface? How to do it dynamically (for instance, as a functi=
on of the received subscriptions)?

<Bharat>: Did not get you? What do you mean by selecting appropriate upstre=
am interface for sender? Can you please elaborate?

.- SSM: what upstream interface is selected? RPF-like mechanism?

<Bharat>: Again did not get you? Is this similar to the previous point? Can=
 you please elaborate?

Plus some additional interesting issues like:
.- dynamic selection of the upstream in use: e.g., for maintenance reasons =
or due to a change in the multicast routing in the core network
.- redundancy: how to implement redundancy method taking advantage of a dif=
ferent upstream interface
.- load balancing: how to share the demand between distinct interfaces
.- service demarcation: how to smoothly integrate different multicast strea=
ms from different providers on the same distribution tree.
.- handover support in mobile services: simultaneous subscription of the sa=
me multicast streams for mitigating service disruption.

<Bharat>: I agree to the above points.

In my opinion these are arguments in favor of standardizing this feature.

Best regards,

Luis

I am yet to read through any of the drafts. Before getting into that, I wan=
ted to understand the need for the standardization of this purely because:

1. A solution already exist and different vendors have implemented it (diff=
erently) and deployed it.
2. I cannot see how a standard solution will be better when this does not i=
nvolve more than one router.

So what if configuration is vendor specific? Our requirement is to choose a=
 specific upstream interface for a specific group. Right? This can be done =
with whatever vendors support today. So what I am not able to understand is=
 that why do we need a standard algorithm to do this?

Thanks.

There is another draft defining a new attribute related to lisp and I
might point to that if we decide to work on that. Otherwise I'll
consider it with an existing attribute.

Agree.

> • "message with Join/Prune attributes encoded" -> "message with Hierarchical Join/Prune attributes encoded"

Need to check, but probably correct.

> • I think this draft should also point out how the existing join attribute will use this and how some of the functions like join suppression will be handled if the attribute uses this hierarchical join/prune attribute. For example, if a join has RPF vector attribute at group-set level as well as source level. Now if another router sees this join, should it suppress its join even if it uses a different value in RPF vector attribute at group set but same RPF vector at source level?

My thinking here is that it is just a more efficient encoding. The
attributes are still per (S,G). So if say an attribute is encoded
in the upstream neighbor field so that it applies to the entire
message, then it is the same as if it is encoded in every single
source address field in the message.

My thinking is that to really compare say two (S,G)-joins (there
may be multiple joins in the message, so just talking about one
individual join) and see if they have the same attributes, you
would first need to basically decode and apply the hierarchical
attributes. This decoding also has to be done when the router
processes a join from a single router too though.

In short, I'm trying not to change the semantics of any attribute,
all I'm trying is to find a more efficient way to encode them. We
have at least one case (one of the proposed LISP attributes) where
we expect to have the same attribute (and value) for every single
(S,G), and we think it makes sense to only add it once to the
message.

Alternatively, we could come up with a different attribute space
and different semantics and say that we have group and message
attributes in addition to what we have now. But I think it is
sufficient to use the existing semantics.

Thanks for the comments,

Stig

I'm glad even the author supports it.

We had 3 in support, none against in the meeting. On the list we got
4 in support (excluding the author) and I think at most 1 intersecting
with the supporters at the meeting. None against.

Mike, please submit a WG version of your document soon (I guess you
have to wait until Monday though).

Hi Bharat,

I get your point. For sure there can be aspects not subject of standardizat=
ion. Let's explore and discuss.

I concentrate now in the two points where you ask for more elaboration.

.- multicast sender support: in RFC 4605 it is mentioned (sec. 3.2) that al=
l the traffic delivered by the senders from inside the tree is forwarded to=
wards the root. When having more than one upstream interface there is more =
than one root. So different options could be in place: send the traffic for=
 all the possible upstreams; send the traffic just for one upstream; send t=
he traffic for that upstream that maintains more subscriptions to the conte=
nt; etc.

.- SSM: in case a certain source is reachable through more than one upstrea=
m interface a decision mechanism should be used to determine to what upstre=
am interface is send the content subscription request. For instance, the de=
cision could be the selection of the interface with better (IGP) metric to =
the source. More sophisticated mechanisms could be in place e.g. for load b=
alancing (for a certain content or among different contents).

Hope this clarifies the raised issues.

Best regards,

Luis

Asunto: RE: Draft submission on MLD with multiple upstreams

Hi Luis,


        As mentioned before, I am not against standardizing this, I am just=
 trying to understand the need.

        My thinking is that we can standardize the external visibility of a=
 feature and how it should behave. I am not sure whether we can really stan=
dardize the configuration for a feature or how a particular feature is impl=
emented internally by a router. But yes, there can surely be a guidance giv=
en to help implementer and administrator.

        Please see in line with <Bharat>.

Regards,
Bharat

Hi Bharat,

About your comments.

The usefulness of an standardized feature is that the expected behavior is =
the same even if implemented by different vendors. The network operator doe=
s not need to adapt to particular solutions, but to well defined and generi=
c ones. No particular hidden problems nor issues. Also thanks to the standa=
rd behavior, the hardware from a vendor can be substituted by other in the =
future (for instance, due to obsolescence) without need of re-customizing t=
he network. This clearly reduces operational costs.

Even if only one router is involved in the implementation of this feature, =
there are some issues to address (as per comparison with RFC4605 contents):
.- membership database structure: now more information would be needed beca=
use more than one upstream interface is in place.

<Bharat>: As its already implemented by vendors, its been taken care. But I=
 agree that there is some more state/information to be maintained.

.- operation with IGMP and MLD: separate upstream for each of them? Separat=
ed versions of protocols for each upstream interface?

<Bharat>: Yes. Again, this could be decided based on the configuration. The=
y both can use same or different upstream interfaces.

.- loop prevention: think that you can find chained IGMP/MLD proxies in som=
e deployments.

<Bharat>: Currently, this is mostly taken care by network design and config=
uration. This is something which I would like to know more about.

.- multicast sender support: what is the process for selecting the appropri=
ate upstream interface? How to do it dynamically (for instance, as a functi=
on of the received subscriptions)?

<Bharat>: Did not get you? What do you mean by selecting appropriate upstre=
am interface for sender? Can you please elaborate?

.- SSM: what upstream interface is selected? RPF-like mechanism?

<Bharat>: Again did not get you? Is this similar to the previous point? Can=
 you please elaborate?

Plus some additional interesting issues like:
.- dynamic selection of the upstream in use: e.g., for maintenance reasons =
or due to a change in the multicast routing in the core network
.- redundancy: how to implement redundancy method taking advantage of a dif=
ferent upstream interface
.- load balancing: how to share the demand between distinct interfaces
.- service demarcation: how to smoothly integrate different multicast strea=
ms from different providers on the same distribution tree.
.- handover support in mobile services: simultaneous subscription of the sa=
me multicast streams for mitigating service disruption.

<Bharat>: I agree to the above points.

In my opinion these are arguments in favor of standardizing this feature.

Best regards,

Luis

I am yet to read through any of the drafts. Before getting into that, I wan=
ted to understand the need for the standardization of this purely because:

1. A solution already exist and different vendors have implemented it (diff=
erently) and deployed it.
2. I cannot see how a standard solution will be better when this does not i=
nvolve more than one router.

So what if configuration is vendor specific? Our requirement is to choose a=
 specific upstream interface for a specific group. Right? This can be done =
with whatever vendors support today. So what I am not able to understand is=
 that why do we need a standard algorithm to do this?

Hi Luis,

        Thanks for your reply. Please see my replies in line.

Ok.

I am not sure if I understand. 'Root' of a multicast tree is always one. It=
 could be RP in case if PIM-SM is used. There could be different RP respons=
ible for different groups.

I think it can be decided based on the configuration of multiple upstream i=
nterfaces to send the traffic towards the Root.

Are we talking about routing protocols here? Because IGMP/MLD will not do R=
PF lookup for the source. They will just send it out on upstream interface =
as configured.

I agree that for individual joins, you would need to parse through the whol=

Ok.

What I was trying to point out is that implementors might need some kind of=
 guidence on how to handle 'Join suppression', 'Unsupported attributes' etc=
. with this scheme. I am not sure whether this draft is the right place or =
not.

Hi Hitoshi,

      As promised, I read through the updated draft today. I have few mor=
e questions/suggestions on this.

Regards,
Bharat

PS: I lost the mail we exchanged last-to-last week so I do not know if yo=
u had replied with some justifications for some of these suggestions in t=
hat mail.

=95 In Abstract, it is mentioned that explicit tracking enables operators=
 to see which downstream routers(s) on a LAN are joined to which multicas=
t tree. But as we are talking about IGMP/MLD, should not this be hosts, s=
witches and/or routers that does IGMP/MLD proxy? So I still feel we shoul=
d not call this just routers. I think we should reword it such that it sa=
ys that explicit tracking enables operators to see which downstream netwo=
rk elements is interested in which multicast group.

=95 In introduction, can we reword:

Therefore, a router even enabling the function may need to send periodic =
IGMPv3/MLDv2 General Query messages and solicit IGMPv3/MLDv2 report messa=
ges from downstream member hosts to maintain an up-to-date membership sta=
te, while the function contributes to saving network resources by tuning =
query timers or values.

to

Therefore, a router that uses this function, may still need to send perio=
dic IGMPv3/MLDv2 General Query messages to maintain an up-to-date members=
hip state.

=95 It seems there is some text missing from section 3. In last revision,=
 this section mentioned report sender's IP address to be maintained as re=
cords but that text is removed.

=95 In section 4, "Query messages along with the definition of Section" -=
> "Query messages as defined in Section"

=95 In section 4, in following sentence:

With the specific query suppression, regardless of the LMQC/LLQC values, =
if the router receives one or more replies from the downstream member(s),=
 it can stop (i.e., cancel) retransmitting the specific query message(s) =
and lower the corresponding source/group timers.

     What do you mean by the 'lower the corresponding source/group timers=
' in this sentence?

=95 In section 5, para 2 is describing each parameter on how it is used. =
Would not it be better to just reference to corresponding RFCs instead of=
 this?

=95 'Hard state' does not look the right term for explaining the query su=
ppression if network robustness is known.

=95 In section 7, if router do not track but join a group, until the send=
er gets an IP address and reply to query messages, there is a risk of rou=
ter not knowing the actual number of receivers.

Right. There are some things that are not really explained in the
original join attributes draft. Part of what I'm doing in this draft
is to rectify that. Among other things the registry. One thing worth
discussing is join suppression. I think the correct is to only suppress
a join if the attributes (and values) are exactly the same.

Eric and Stig,=20

Sorry for the delay in responding to your excellent feedback. All of=20
your comments are very appreciated and I will try to address them as=20
best I can below. There are very good points here that can be=20
addressed in a new revision of the draft.

<Kurt>The reason for choosing to use a new SAFI is for support of the=20
BSR routes to be negotiated by SAFI. If we were to find a way to leverage=20
end-of-rib signaling in routine sets of NLRI updates, a separate SAFI=20
would have other benefits (but see the end-of-rib comments below).

Alternately, it may be possible to simply rely on implementations=20
to properly discard NLRIs of unknown types within the MCAST-VPN SAFI.

  BSR address, or vice versa. (=85)
=20
<Kurt>This is not the intent. The only intended use of "mixed" AFIs would=20
be in the "Originating PE's IP Address", which is the PE's address=20
in the service provider core and may be a different AFI than the AFI=20
of the customer network for which this SAFI is advertising BSR.=20
For consistency, we should adopt the convention of RFC 6515 here=20
as the issues are the same. We should also explicitly require that=20
the AFI of other IP addresses in the NLRIs match the AFI of the NLRI.
Current language describing the possible values of "len of BSR=20
address" and other similar passages must be tightened accordingly.
=20
> For RP addresses and Group addresses the draft proposes to use the
  "encoded" formats from the PIM spec.  These formats contain an octet that
  identifies the address family.  There should be a requirement that the
  address family as encoded in the "encoded format" be the same as the
  address family identified in the BGP Update's AFI, and that the lengths b=
e
  appropriate for that address family.
=20
<Kurt>Agreed.
=20
> In the BGP Update, parsing would be simpler if the Length field that
  precedes an "encoded group format" field or an "encoded unicast address

=20
<Kurt>Agreed.
=20

  should say "VRF Route Import Extended Community" or "VRF Route Import IPv=
6
  Address Specific Extended Community", to cover the case of a SP with an

o
  the NLRI of sections 4.2 and 4.3 as well.)
=20
<Kurt>Agreed.
=20
> What action is to be taken if a BGP Update with an MCAST-VPN-BSR NLRI is
  received, but there is no BSR-BGP Path attribute?
=20
<Kurt>Since all BGP-BSR NLRI route types must carry the BGP-BSR Path=20
attribute per the current text, I think the proper response to a
route update lacking this attribute is to declare it malformed and=20
require that the NLRI be discarded without processing of its contents.
=20

  Does "not set" just mean "set to zero", or does it mean only that certain
  fields are irrelevant to the processing of certain NLRIs.
=20
<Kurt>While it's true that certain fields are not relevant to all NLRIs=20
(see the next comment), this language can be clarified to be "set to zero."
The next comment does a nice job of defining these behaviors.
=20

  (=85)
  Where a particular NLRI/field combination is "No", perhaps what the draft
  should say is that the field MUST be ignored when processing that type of
  NLRI.  That would allow the ignored field to carry any value, without ris=
k
  of any interoperability problems.  If one only says "SHOULD be ignored",
  there may be interoperability problems.
=20
<Kurt>This is correct and the draft should adopt these excellent suggestion=
s.
=20

  There don't seem to be any clear instructions as to when the fragmentatio=
n
  tag field of the BSR-BGP attribute of a given NLRI actually needs to be
  changed. (=85) why can't fragmentation  be entirely a local matter=20
  (i.e., not communicated across the net)?
=20
<Kurt>This is a good observation and we agree that the BSR Fragment Tag is=
=20
not needed in BGP. It should be removed and the table from the previous=20
comment can also be updated accordingly.

> Constructing BSMs from the Counts
  Suppose an ingress PE receives a BSM with 15 RP mappings for a given
  group.  Then it receives another BSM with 15 RP mappings for that group,
  10 of which are the same, and 5 of which are different.
=20
  It seems that if the egress PE receives "withdraw, update, withdraw,
  update, withdraw, update, withdraw, update, withdraw, update", it could
  generate five BSMs.  Is our understanding correct, or are we missing
  something?
=20
<Kurt>The egress PE may receive BGP NLRI updates as described above, such t=
hat
the counts contained in the NRLIs do not give the ability to determine
complete reception of the full set of updates that came from the BSM on the
ingress PE.=20

The worst-case would be that each withdraw and new update arrives in a=20
separate BGP UPDATE message, which depending on the implementation may=20
trigger BSR to attempt to generate multiple BSMs to CEs.=20

This is a worst-case scenario. The NRLI design attempts to account for=20
the full set of updates using the various counters so that it can know
when it can send a complete BSM. But it must be acknowledged that the=20
update stream that you give is one in which this protocol cannot operate
as well as native BSR.

However, it's likely that the ingress PE would batch the individual NLRI=20
updates into a much fewer number of BGP UPDATE messages.=20
The draft could make recommendations for the implementation to process all=
=20
BGP NLRI updates that it has received before generating the new BSM to=20
minimize the behavior above.=20
=20
One more point is that even if the NRLI updates arrive at the egress in=20
separate BGP UPDATE messages at different times, triggering separate=20
attempts to send BSMs, the BSR spec requires a minimum time between BSMs=20
being sent (RFC 5059 specifies BS_min_interval with default of 10sec).=20
Thus, it's likely that the second BSM would contain the updates to all=20
15 mappings and the worst-case you described is mitigated. The issue=20
then is the added delay to convergence introduced by the BS_min_interval
so it is still not ideal in comparison to native BSR.

> End of RIB=20
  Given that there is almost always a route reflector between the ingress
  and egress PEs, how is the "End of RIB" marker going to be helpful in
  deciding when to originate a BSM?
=20
<Pavan+Kurt>Thanks for pointing this out, that is correct.  Also, given tha=
t=20
End of RIB implementations may differ, we will alter the draft=20
in our next version accordingly to remove it.

> BS_Timeout
  There seems to be a problem with the following procedure from section
  6.2.2 ("Missing BSM") (=85)
=20
<Kurt>First off, I think this draft needs to clarify how it integrates with
the BSR state machine in the same terms of RFC5059. The precise events and
actions on the PEs needs to be specified so that it's clear how BGP events
on PEs interact with the local RP-Set and PE-CE BSMs.

Regarding the "Missing BSM" behavior, we need specify the following,
which will revise the original text and procedures:
* On the ingress PE, a timer must be run at the interval of=20
  BS_Period (+ some small value to allow for jitter) such that if a BSM=20
  has not been received from the local BSR, then the BSR Parameters NLRI.
* On the egress PE, upon withdrawal of the BSR parameters NLRI, the PE=20
  must set its BS_Timeout to be BS_Timeout - BS_Period and BSMs must not
  be sent while the BSR Parameters NLRI is not present.

Thus, if timers are in sync and allowed jitter is small, behavior should=20
mirror what would happen in native BSR from the points of view of CEs
on the egress side.
However, since we cannot rely on timers being perfectly in sync, it is
still possible for the egress site to retain the RPs from the missing=20
BSM for up to one BS_Period.

This problem needs more thought to see if we can close this gap=20
in relation to the native BSR operations.

> With regard to the sentence "As soon as the Type-1 is withdrawn,
  BS_Timeout period has to be started at the egress and upon its expiry, al=
l
  the Type-2 and Type-3 entries MUST be deleted", it doesn't seem right for
  an egress PE to remove BGP installed routes based upon the expiry of a
  local timer.

<Kurt>Yes, this should read something to the effect that when BS_Timeout
expires on the egress PE, the RPs/groups discovered from the elected BSR
should be removed from the local RP-Set. The BGP routes will be deleted
when the ingress PE withdraws them.

Thanks again for the valuable comments.
We hope to produce a revisied draft in the coming weeks.

Thanks again
--Kurt

Subject: Comments on draft-kurapati-dynamicrp-bgpmvpn-00.txt

Stig Venaas and I have discussed draft-kurapati-dynamicrp-bgpmvpn-00.text,
and together we have prepared the following set of questions and comments.

- We are wondering why the draft proposes to use a new SAFI, rather than
  reusing the MCAST-VPN SAFI.
 =20
  Using a new SAFI does provide a bit more freedom in designing the NLRI,
  but the draft sticks to the basic NLRI format of the MCAST-VPN SAFI
  anyway.  I don't think the new SAFI would be used on a BGP session unless
  the MCAST-VPN SAFI is also used on that session, so why not just use the
  MCAST-VPN SAFI for the new route types?

- The draft seems to allow an AFI of "IPv6" to be used together with an IPv=
4
  BSR address, or vice versa.

  When using the type 1-7 routes of the MCAST-VPN SAFI, the AFI designates
  the address family being used by the customer.  The address family being
  used by the service provider is inferred from the various length
  computations that are discussed in RFC 6515.  It seems best to stick with
  that same convention for the new BSR route types.  That would mean that
  the field "BSR Address" must be of the address family identified by the
  AFI.  The address length would then have to be appropriate for that
  address family, or the Update would be considered malformed.

  On the other hand, if it were to be decided to use a new SAFI, it might
  make more sense to dispense with the RFC 6515 hacks altogether and
  explicitly encode the address family of each address.

- For RP addresses and Group addresses the draft proposes to use the
  "encoded" formats from the PIM spec.  These formats contain an octet that
  identifies the address family.  There should be a requirement that the
  address family as encoded in the "encoded format" be the same as the
  address family identified in the BGP Update's AFI, and that the lengths b=
e
  appropriate for that address family.

- In the BGP Update, parsing would be simpler if the Length field that
  precedes an "encoded group format" field or an "encoded unicast address
  field" contains the length of that field, not the length of the address
  prefix that appears within the encoded format.

- The mention of the "VRF Route Import Extended Community" in section 4.1
  should say "VRF Route Import Extended Community" or "VRF Route Import IPv=
6
  Address Specific Extended Community", to cover the case of a SP with an
  IPv6 infrastructure.  (It also needs to be made clear that this applies t=
o
  the NLRI of sections 4.2 and 4.3 as well.)

- What action is to be taken if a BGP Update with an MCAST-VPN-BSR NLRI is
  received, but there is no BSR-BGP Path attribute?

- It's hard to interpret phrases like "the group count for this NLRI is not
  set".  How does one send this attribute without "setting" all its fields?
  Does "not set" just mean "set to zero", or does it mean only that certain
  fields are irrelevant to the processing of certain NLRIs.

- The draft could use a little table to show which fields affect the
  processing which received NLRIs:

          NLRI                          FragTag      RP Count    Group Coun=
t         =20

          BSR Parameters                Yes             No          Yes
         =20
          BSM Group Parameters          Yes             Yes         No

          BSM RP Parameters             Yes             No          No

  I think this table corresponds to your intentions.

  Where a particular NLRI/field combination is "No", perhaps what the draft
  should say is that the field MUST be ignored when processing that type of
  NLRI.  That would allow the ignored field to carry any value, without ris=
k
  of any interoperability problems.  If one only says "SHOULD be ignored",
  there may be interoperability problems.

- Regarding Fragmentation Tags

  There don't seem to be any clear instructions as to when the fragmentatio=
n
  tag field of the BSR-BGP attribute of a given NLRI actually needs to be
  changed.  As a result, it's difficult to figure out its uses.  If some
  customer is sending fragmented BSMs every minute, one doesn't want to hav=
e
  BGP update all its RP mappings every minute.  So just when does the
  attribute value have to change?  Hopefully not too often, or there will b=
e
  a lot of BGP thrashing.

  It's difficult to understand why a fragmentation tag field is needed in t=
he
  BSR-BGP attribute at all.  The Group Count and RP Count fields are really
  what control when an egress PE can send a BSM.  If an ingress PE doesn't
  advertise changes to a groups RP mappings until it has all the mappings
  for that group (which I think is required in BSR), why can't fragmentatio=
n
  be entirely a local matter (i.e., not communicated across the net)?  What
  are we missing?

- Constructing BSMs from the Counts

  Suppose an ingress PE receives a BSM with 15 RP mappings for a given
  group.  Then it receives another BSM with 15 RP mappings for that group,
  10 of which are the same, and 5 of which are different.

  It seems that if the egress PE receives "withdraw, update, withdraw,
  update, withdraw, update, withdraw, update, withdraw, update", it could
  generate five BSMs.  Is our understanding correct, or are we missing
  something?

- End of RIB

  Given that there is almost always a route reflector between the ingress
  and egress PEs, how is the "End of RIB" marker going to be helpful in
  deciding when to originate a BSM?

- BS_Timeout

  There seems to be a problem with the following procedure from section
  6.2.2 ("Missing BSM"):

       "Egress PE receiving a withdrawn "BSR Parameters" route (Type-1)
       MUST still keep the corresponding Type-2 and Type-3 entries.
       However, it MUST NOT advertise the BSM to the CE without the
       Type-1 route present.  As soon as the Type-1 is withdrawn,
       BS_Timeout period has to be started at the egress and upon its
       expiry, all the Type-2 and Type-3 entries MUST be deleted.

       Say the egress has generated BSM at t=3D0.  At t=3D1 BS_Period
       expired at ingress PE and ingress PE did not get the periodic
       BSM.  So, it withdraws type-1 (BSR Parameters).  Egress PE has
       already generated BSM just before the type-1 withdrawal was
       received.  The egress PE skips the next periodic BSM towards the
       CE.  But CE is "off" by BS_Period interval by now.  Once the
       BS_Timeout expires, egress PE removes all the type-2 and type-3
       entries.  CEs connected to egress PE will remove the same, a
       whole BS_Period later.  Hence, to avoid this issue, once the
       BS_Timeout expires,an egress PE MUST generate a new BSM towards
       CE with RP hold time set to "0" for all the type-2 and type-3
       entries.  This will make the CEs in sinc with the the PEs.  After
       generating the BSM, PE removes all the Type-2 and Type-3 entries
       as stated above.

   The problem is the following.  The holding times of the individual RP
   mapping entries may be longer than the BS_Timeout.  Typically if
   BS_Timeout fires, the remaining holding time of an RP mapping entry will
   be the difference between (a) its holding time as reported in the last
   received BSM and (b) BS_Timeout.  The above seems to set the RP holding
   times to zero as soon as BS_Timeout expires.  The problem with this is
   that it may cause the RP mappings to timeout before a new BSR can be
   elected.

   Perhaps the withdrawal of a BSR parameters route should trigger the
   transmission of a new BSM that doesn't set the RP-mapping holding times
   to zero, but that just reduces each RP-mapping holding time by
   BS_Timeout.  Well, that would correct the RP-mapping holding times
   downstream of an egress PE, but it would also have the side effect of
   restarting the BS_Timeout at the routers downstream of the egress PE.  S=
o
   that doesn't seem right either.

- With regard to the sentence "As soon as the Type-1 is withdrawn,
  BS_Timeout period has to be started at the egress and upon its expiry, al=
l
  the Type-2 and Type-3 entries MUST be deleted", it doesn't seem right for
  an egress PE to remove BGP installed routes based upon the expiry of a
  local timer.

The explicit tracking function is enabled on multicast routers or
IGMP/MLD proxy devices, not on hosts.
I would reword such as;
  "the IGMP/MLD-based explicit membership tracking function for
  multicast routers and IGMP/MLD proxy devices supporting
  IGMPv3/MLDv2."

Bharat> Explicit tracking function tracks the end hosts, switches or prox=
y devices. So I am still not convinced why it should mention multicast ro=
uters and not hosts. Please talk to some other person as well to get his =
views on this.

Ok, I'd say;
  "Therefore, a router enabling the function may still need to send
  periodic IGMPv3/MLDv2 General Query messages and solicit
  IGMPv3/MLDv2 report messages from downstream member hosts to
  maintain an up-to-date membership state."

Bharat> I think the second part of the statement is implicit. I am fine w=
ith it if you want to add this.

I did enbug in the last revision. Move the text back to the revised
one.

Bharat> Did not get your response. Are you planning to put this back?

> =95 In section 4, "Query messages along with the definition of
> Section" -> "Query messages as defined in Section"

Ok.

Bharat> Ok.

> =95 In section 4, in following sentence:
>

Lowering the corresponding source/group timers to zero is the way to
stop query retransmission. It is the standard router-side
implementation. However, precisely because it is the standard
behavior, I think I can omit to say this exlicitly here. I'll remove
it.

Bharat> I am not sure I understand. Lowering of source/group timer is usu=
ally done when a router is sending a group/group-source specific query. C=
urrently there is no way to cancel the remaining queries. In my opinion, =
it will be better to remove this sentence.

> =95 In section 5, para 2 is describing each parameter on how it is

This short explanation will reminds readers of the standard
values/timers, LMQI/LLQI, LMQC/LLQC, and LMQT/LLQT, and help readers
understanding the story of this section. I think just referring
rfc3367/3810 here is not helpful. This is the reason I put this short
para.

Bharat> Ok.

> =95 'Hard state' does not look the right term for explaining the query
> suppression if network robustness is known.

Maybe. "Stable state"?
Naming is always difficult. I'll ask in the meeting.

Bharat> Its something to do with the robust network. So maybe we can call=
 'robust network state'. But yes please do ask in the meeting for others =
feedback as well.

> =95 In section 7, if router do not track but join a group, until the

Yes, there is a risk. That's why the second para explaining all-zero
source says, "the router will maintain its membership state
information by checking Current-State reports as ordinary routers do".

Bharat> But can we also mention about the risk here?

This function tracks member hosts, but it is enabled by
routers/proxies, not by hosts.
Can you understand if I replace it to the following statement?
  "the IGMP/MLD-based explicit membership tracking function enabled by
  multicast routers and IGMP/MLD proxy devices supporting
  IGMPv3/MLDv2."

Bharat> I think I am not able to convey my concern correctly. I will make=
 one last attempt. Here is the text for which I am asking this:

The explicit membership tracking function contributes to saving network
   resources and shortening leave latency, and enables operators to see
   which downstream routers(s) on a LAN are joined to which multicast
   tree.

This statement is written from the multicast router perspective because e=
xplicit tracking function is implemented in them. From that perspective i=
f you read this statement, saying that 'operators can see which downstrea=
m router(s) on a LAN are joined' does not look correct. As you agreed abo=
ve that the function tracks member hosts so should not this statement men=
tion that instead of 'downstream router(s)' in this sentence.

I meant I rewrote this section but put wrong statement here. I'll
modify the text of the same section of the previous draft and put it
in the next revision.

Bharat> I had couple of question on this. I will look at the updated one =
and see if my suggestions are taken care.

>> =95 In section 4, in following sentence:

Yes, I'm saying the same thing.

Bharat>: Somehow I did not get this from your reply. In any case if you a=
re removing that statement, I think things should be fine.

>> =95 'Hard state' does not look the right term for explaining the query

Ok, how about "robust link state"?

Bharat> This may be fine. I am not sure. If required, you can define this=
 in terminology section with details.

>> =95 In section 7, if router do not track but join a group, until the

>
> Bharat> But can we also mention about the risk here?

The current second para (the following one) does not fulfill your
comment?

  "When a router enabling the explicit tracking function receives IGMP
  report messages with an all-zero source address, it deals with the
  IGMP report messages correctly as defined in [2] and continuously
  keeps track of the membership state. However, the router SHOULD NOT
  maintain the host specifying all-zero source address in its
  membership state information. The router will maintain its
  membership state information by checking Current-State reports as
  ordinary routers do."

Bharat> I saw this. What I am trying to point out is that as it does not =
maintain the receiver record with 0.0.0.0 address the router state is not=
 in sync and so there is a risk.

Ok, so how about;
  "This document describes the IGMP/MLD-based explicit membership
  tracking function for multicast routers and IGMP/MLD proxy devices
  supporting IGMPv3/MLDv2. The explicit membership tracking function
  contributes to saving network resources and shortening leave latency."

I think this kind of explanation should be in the main section, not in
the terminology section, beause it is necessary to explain various
backgrounds to make readers understand and the backgrounds are
mentioned in several sections.

Bharat> Ok. You decide. I was just suggesting that the definition of this=

I may not understand your point.
Isn't it sufficient to say that all-zero source is not maintained by
the routers? Obviously it is because there is a risk of wrong
membership state.

Bharat> I understand what you are mentioning here. I agree that it implic=
itly suggest that there is a risk here. My only question is that should w=
e explicitly suggest that there is a risk here and then suggest something=
 that reduces this risk. Question is that is there a way to figure out th=
at a given host which joined a group with source address 0.0.0.0 has now =
got an IP address and so the router can move to actively tracking this gr=
oup as well.

Bharat,

Thanks for your comments.
I believe we got concensus and it's time for submitting the revison.
Whenever the ietf submission page resumes, I'll submit it.
I hope the revised draft would go for the WGLC then.

Even if metric is zero, PIM assert uses preference and IP address as well so whether we use metric or not, the outcome will remain same. Or am I missing something here?

I'm also wondering about this. It seems to be standard behavior, and
then I don't think it's necessary to go into details here. That might
give the impression that something special is going on.

I am inclined to mark this erratum as Rejected for the following reasons:

1. Altering an INDEX statement in a MIB has adverse affects on devices 
populating the MIB and the management stations trying to read the MIB.

2. The information being used in these tables is *per-interface* (e.g., 
described in RFC 3810, section 4.2).  The concept of aliases is not 
applicable in those situations.

*If* there is a need to support per-alias information, that should be 
taken up as a revision to both the MIB and the underlying group 
management protocols.

Regards,
Brian

Abstract:
   This document describes the IGMP/MLD-based explicit membership
   tracking function for multicast routers and IGMP/MLD proxy devices
   supporting IGMPv3/MLDv2.  The explicit membership tracking function
   contributes to saving network resources and shortening leave latency.

I am not sure if I am able to convey my thinking correctly or not. What I=
 was trying to say is that it would have been easier to follow if a simpl=
e use case with some figure would have been available in the RFC.

But now that it is already a RFC, I am not sure if you can do much here e=
ven if you agree with me.
