	Betreff: [ANCP] ANCP Versioning

	=20

	=20

	Dear All,=20

	Recently the WG has seen a fair bit of discussion regarding ANCP
protocol versioning including several calls for a change in the version
number. Following consultations with our IETF directorate and technical
advisors we now feel ready to present to you the ANCP versioning
strategy that we're proposing for adoption

	A brief summary of the problems.=20
	------------------------------------------------=20

	*	During work on the protocol spec
draft-wadhwa-gsmp-l2control-configuration, that has now been approved as
a WG ID, a couple of changes have been made with respect to TLV and
sub-TLV numbering.. These changes resulted in the possibility that ANCP
implementations based on previous versions of the draft could
misinterpret information sent by implementations based on the latest
draft. The problem has been spotted and a relatively simple fix is
available, at least for one of the problems, which prevents currently
deployed implementations from falling foul of this problem.   =20

	*	The current ANCP implementations and WG protocol spec
follow GSMP's draft-ietf-gsmp-v3-base-spec-06 and later revisions. This
base-spec draft actually introduced a change to the basic GSMP Message's
version field format in comparison to the one defined in GSMPv3
(rfc3292): The base-spec takes the version field to be composed out of
two nibbles, version & sub version, being set to 3 and 1 respectively.
RFC 3292 defines the version field as a single byte value, and in
section 11.1 sets it to 3. =20
		 =20
	*	Going forward, it is likely that the protocol will
introduce modifications to the base protocol, which may render backward
compatibility difficult. =20
		 =20
	*	ANCP is currently not compatible with GSMPv3 and it does
not appear that there is the desire to make a device implementing ANCP
be able to form an adjacency with a device running an RFC3292 compliant
version of GSMPv3. =20
		 =20
	*	ANCP currently uses GSMP's TCP port number 6068 and this
may change given potential work on a new transport protocol, and/or a
shift from GSMP.=20

	=20

	ANCP Versioning strategy.=20
	----------------------------------------=20

	The conclusion that we reached is that any protocol version or
sub-version change are to be done primarily to address substantial
protocol changes that will render previous versions incompatible - this
is best practice, besides common sense that is used throughout the IETF
community. It will be for the WG group, backed by technical advice when
required, to decide when this stage is actually reached.=20

	In view of our WG's chartered work, such a stage may actually
come towards the end of the protocol specification where we could, for
example decide to use a modified protocol state-machine, protocol
transport, and/or transport port.

	The following list is deemed to not qualify as substantial
protocol changes, and thus will not be considered as sufficient ground
for changing/revising the ANCP version, or sub-version number:

	i) a new revision of the protocol spec*=20
	ii) a conflicting TLV or sub-TLVs=20
	iii) incompatibilities arising from implementations of pre-RFC
drafts.=20
	iv) new negotiable protocol capabilities (eg Bulk message
capability)**=20

	* Unless the revised draft diverges so far in protocol
compatibility from its origin as to render it incompatible, for example
a new protocol RFC

	** The current capabilities negotiation mechanism leaves a few
things to be desired - this will be discussed in a follow on mail.

	If and when the WG agrees that substantial changes have been
made to the protocol, a new protocol version will require an IANA
version registry change.=20

	With respect to protocol version negotiation, it is not seen as
a desirable feature of the protocol due to its complexity and potential
for introducing several more problems than it actually would solve - the
capabilities negotiation feature is intended precisely to remove the
need for such a feature, and thus a version negotiation capability is
not required.=20

	Taking this into account, from my perspective:
	 - we in fact already have an ANCP protocol version number
(located in the GSMP-Header, being set to 3.1)
	 - we might change this number, if the draft becomes a RFC

	With all this said, the above points do reflect real world
problems that the WG will need to deal with. Thus, to resolve the
current TLV/sub-TLV issue, and potential future ones, we would like to
propose that whenever a conflict arising out of different draft versions
is noted, the TLVs in question will be set as being depreciated/reserved
and a new set assigned - all done though rough consensus in the WG
naturally. Only when absolutely necessary  would an appendix be
introduced to the protocol spec to shed some light on the deprecated
values.=20

	Declaring a TLV as depricated and assigning a new set of
TLV-numbers will solve the interworking problem only, if   the
depricated TLV's will still be supported. Nevertheless "old" depreciated
TLVs have to be supported for all future version to keep interability.
	Otherwise we will end up with the same problems again and again,
don't we?

	=20

	TLV 0x90 conclusion and TLV work for the WG=20
	-------------------------------------------------------------=20

	With the above strategy outlined we can arrive at some
conclusions with respect to the recent WG "Protocol version nummer for
ANCP" thread:

	- The problem identified does not warrant a protocol version
revision, or the introduction of a version negotiation capability.

	- The following is a list of TLVs that are of have been affected
by conflicts and are thus candidates for depreciation:=20

	1. PORT-UP TLV Type 0x02. Should have a new TLV for
(Access-Loop-Remote-Id) which is currently using 0x02. A new TLV 0x06
has already been assigned for (Access-Aggregation-Circuit-ID-Binary)
that was conflicting

	2. PORT-UP TLV 0x04 sub-TLV 0x90. Should have a new sub-TLV for
(Access Loop Encapsulation) which is currently set to 0x90. An new TLV
0x91 already been assigned for (DSL-Type) that was conflicting.=20

	Just leaving the DSL-Type at 0x90 and moving the
Access-Loop-Encapsulation to 0x91 will solve the problem without the
need of marking something as depricated.
	Is there any reason not to do so? =20

	Given the above, let's now please commence the discussion on
depreciating the above two, admittedly important TLVs, and introducing
new ones. Exiting implementations are known to be able to handle the
conflict so far, thus the changes will not immediately produce problems,
however implementers and early adopters should make plans towards moving
to any agreed new values.

	Kind Regards,=20
	Woj.=20

		With all this said, the above points do reflect real
world problems that the WG will need to deal with. Thus, to resolve the
current TLV/sub-TLV issue, and potential future ones, we would like to
propose that whenever a conflict arising out of different draft versions
is noted, the TLVs in question will be set as being depreciated/reserved
and a new set assigned - all done though rough consensus in the WG
naturally. Only when absolutely necessary  would an appendix be
introduced to the protocol spec to shed some light on the deprecated
values.=20

		Declaring a TLV as depricated and assigning a new set of
TLV-numbers will solve the interworking problem only, if   the
depricated TLV's will still be supported. Nevertheless "old" depreciated
TLVs have to be supported for all future version to keep interability.
		Otherwise we will end up with the same problems again
and again, don't we?

		=20

	=09
		[DR] Not really IMO. Interoperability of a specific
function is tested at the level of a given version. The problem is to
avoid conflicting TLVs for the same function. Although continuing for a
while to support deprecated TLVs is a good migration tactics, I do not
believe that this is required from an interoperability point of view.=20

In draft-wadhwa-gsmp-l2control-configuration-02,
for OAM-Loopback-Test-Parameters = 0x07, it says:

           Length: 4 bytes

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least

also:

        The Length field in each TLV contains

So, how is the length of "two 1 byte numbers" equal to "4 bytes" ?
Where are the two one byte numbers in the field of 4?
What are the other two bytes to make the total of 4? Are they padding?

Suppose the count is 5 and the timeout is 3.
Is the hex representation like this ?

or like this?

Hi Jakob,

This is how I interpret it:

00 07 00 04 05 03 00 00

The value itself is defined as 4 bytes, so there's no padding,
eventhough only 1+1 bytes are in use.

One could argue that the specification is a bit vague in the
description of this parameter... :-)

Hi Kim, Jakob

This is also what i found in different traces.
If TLV Length is set to 4 (according to =
draft-wadhwa-gsmp-l2control-configuration-02) i found:
  00 07 00 04 05 03 00 00

Oops, no. This will change the length byte from 4 to 2.
I change my proposal.
I propose to change this:

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least 
           significant) 

to this
           Value  : 4 bytes comprising 1 byte Count, followed by
           one byte Timeout, followed by two bytes of zero.

Oops, no. This will change the length byte from 4 to 2.
I change my proposal.
I propose to change this:

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least 
           significant) 

to this
           Value  : 4 bytes comprising 1 byte Count, followed by
           one byte Timeout, followed by two bytes of zero.

In order to make the words less vague and to conform
to our interpretation of them,
I propose to change it to 2 bytes and to change
"listed in order of most to least significant"
to
"listed in the order transmitted"

ie, this:
        o  Type (OAM-Loopback-Test-Parameters = 0x07): Parameters 
related to 
           loopback test. This is an optional TLV. If this TLV is not 
present
           in the request message, the DSLAM SHOULD use locally determined
           default values for the test parameters. 

           Length: 4 bytes

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least 
           significant) 

to this:
        o  Type (OAM-Loopback-Test-Parameters = 0x07): Parameters 
related to 
           loopback test. This is an optional TLV. If this TLV is not 
present
           in the request message, the DSLAM SHOULD use locally determined
           default values for the test parameters. 

           Length: 2 bytes

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in the order transmitted) 


The last two zero bytes are there due to the padding rule stated
elsewhere in the document.

Hi Jakob,

This will clearify things a great deal -
I think it's a good suggestion.

Oops, no. This will change the length byte from 4 to 2.
I change my proposal.
I propose to change this:

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least

           significant)=20

to this
           Value  : 4 bytes comprising 1 byte Count, followed by
           one byte Timeout, followed by two bytes of zero.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Access Node Control Protocol Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Framework and Requirements for an Access Node Control Mechanism in Broadband Multi-Service Networks
	Author(s)	: S. Ooghe, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ancp-framework-01.txt
	Pages		: 34
	Date		: 2007-2-14
	
The purpose of this document is to define a framework for an Access
   Node Control Mechanism between a Network Access Server (NAS) and an
   Access Node (e.g. a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer
   (DSLAM)) in a multi-service reference architecture in order to
   perform QoS-related, service-related and Subscriber-related
   operations.  The Access Node Control Mechanism will ensure that the
   transmission of the information does not need to go through distinct
   element managers but rather using a direct device-device
   communication.  This allows for performing access link related
   operations within those network elements, while avoiding impact on
   the existing OSS systems.

	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi All,

First off, thanks to the editor for posting the latest version of the
draft.

I would like to propose some modifications to Section 3.1 of the latest
draft-ancp-framework-01 text to better deal with the nature of the
problem of hierarchical scheduling and access-loop discovery.=20

Section 3.1 - Dynamic Access Loop Attributes
The section describes the role of the Hierarchical Scheduling in the
context of access loop and aggregation uplink discovery, and correctly
states that in order to build a 3 level HS information about the
access-loop and access-node uplink is useful. With this in mind, I would
like to propose to change the title of this section back to "Access
topology discovery" (Admittedly not too far off from the title this
section had in the past...)

The section proceeds to list a number of attributes for the access loop
that are desirable to be sent. However it does not provide a similar
attribute list for the access-node uplink, and I would like to propose
that the following be included as an initial set:
- The unique identification (interface-id) of the uplink.
- The type of the access-node uplink (eg Ethernet, ATM, PON, ...)
- The encaps of the access-node uplink (eg n/a, 802.1Q, 802.1ad, ...)
- The up-speed of the access-node uplink
- The down-speed of the access-node uplink
- The state of the access-node uplink

Furthermore, for the purpose of deriving an accurate HS in the presence
of uplink bundling  (eg 802.3ad), it would be useful for the access-node
to report information about the such bundling being active. This would
minimally require that for each uplink that is configured and active in
a link bundle the protocol conveys information about the link's bundle
membership, eg - Member of link-bundle-id.

Since some types of access-nodes can have multiple uplinks, including a
mix of ATM and Ethernet, I think it would make sense to also be able to
convey info from the access-node about the active mapping of access-loop
to access-node uplink, eg DSL port 1/1 maps to uplink 1, DSL port 2/1
maps to uplink 2. For this it would probably make sense to introduce an
additional information element in both the access-loop and uplink
characteristics, which can be used to tie the two together. A simple
proposal one could make is to add the uplink's id as a characteristic of
the access-loop, i.e. - "Access-node uplink id" added to the access-loop
attribute lists.

This however has the downside that should the uplink for a particular
access-loop change, eg due to the activation of a standby up-link
mechanism commonly found on access-nodes, all access-loops would need to
be re-signalled. Thus, it would appear to be better to introduce a
parameter that would avoid such re-signalling, and I would like to
propose the following:
1) including in the access-loop the uplink VLAN or VP/VC to which that
access-loop is currently mapped to,=20
2) include in the uplink's description a list of currently active and
forwarding VLANs or VP/VCs.

If an access-node uplink should fail, eg a standby link become
activated, all that would be required to be communicated would be an
update of the uplink status.

Looking forward to the discussion and/or inclusion of these additions in
the ANCP framework draft.

Regards,
Woj.

Oops, no. This will change the length byte from 4 to 2.
I change my proposal.
I propose to change this:

           Value  : two 1 byte numbers (listed in order of most to least

to this
           Value  : 4 bytes comprising 1 byte Count, followed by
           one byte Timeout, followed by two bytes of zero.

Hi Woj

   I am ok with uplink attributes in ANCP. The protocol draft alludes to
it when describing certain TLVs. However, I am not convinced LAG
membership info belongs in ANCP. H-QOS in case of LAG (possibly spanning
different line modules on a chassis) can be aided by two ends of a LAG
agreeing upon a common mapping of a subscriber (or access-loop) to a
link in a LAG. However, the LAG can be between DSLAM and BSR (in a
direct-connect model), between DSLAM and aggregation elements, between
aggregation elements themselves, and between aggregation elements and
BSR.  ANCP doesn't apply to all the cases. I consider LACP (with
suitable extensions) to be more generally applicable.

Subject: [ANCP] Access topology discovery

=20

Hi All,=20

First off, thanks to the editor for posting the latest version of the
draft.=20

I would like to propose some modifications to Section 3.1 of the latest
draft-ancp-framework-01 text to better deal with the nature of the
problem of hierarchical scheduling and access-loop discovery.=20

Section 3.1 - Dynamic Access Loop Attributes=20
The section describes the role of the Hierarchical Scheduling in the
context of access loop and aggregation uplink discovery, and correctly
states that in order to build a 3 level HS information about the
access-loop and access-node uplink is useful. With this in mind, I would
like to propose to change the title of this section back to "Access
topology discovery" (Admittedly not too far off from the title this
section had in the past...)

The section proceeds to list a number of attributes for the access loop
that are desirable to be sent. However it does not provide a similar
attribute list for the access-node uplink, and I would like to propose
that the following be included as an initial set:

- The unique identification (interface-id) of the uplink.=20
- The type of the access-node uplink (eg Ethernet, ATM, PON, ...)=20
- The encaps of the access-node uplink (eg n/a, 802.1Q, 802.1ad, ...)=20
- The up-speed of the access-node uplink=20
- The down-speed of the access-node uplink=20
- The state of the access-node uplink=20

Furthermore, for the purpose of deriving an accurate HS in the presence
of uplink bundling  (eg 802.3ad), it would be useful for the access-node
to report information about the such bundling being active. This would
minimally require that for each uplink that is configured and active in
a link bundle the protocol conveys information about the link's bundle
membership, eg - Member of link-bundle-id.

Since some types of access-nodes can have multiple uplinks, including a
mix of ATM and Ethernet, I think it would make sense to also be able to
convey info from the access-node about the active mapping of access-loop
to access-node uplink, eg DSL port 1/1 maps to uplink 1, DSL port 2/1
maps to uplink 2. For this it would probably make sense to introduce an
additional information element in both the access-loop and uplink
characteristics, which can be used to tie the two together. A simple
proposal one could make is to add the uplink's id as a characteristic of
the access-loop, i.e. - "Access-node uplink id" added to the access-loop
attribute lists.

This however has the downside that should the uplink for a particular
access-loop change, eg due to the activation of a standby up-link
mechanism commonly found on access-nodes, all access-loops would need to
be re-signalled. Thus, it would appear to be better to introduce a
parameter that would avoid such re-signalling, and I would like to
propose the following:

1) including in the access-loop the uplink VLAN or VP/VC to which that
access-loop is currently mapped to,=20
2) include in the uplink's description a list of currently active and
forwarding VLANs or VP/VCs.=20

If an access-node uplink should fail, eg a standby link become
activated, all that would be required to be communicated would be an
update of the uplink status.

Looking forward to the discussion and/or inclusion of these additions in
the ANCP framework draft.=20

Regards,=20
Woj.=20

Folks,

We have a 2 hour session for ANCP, tentatively scheduled for 13:00 on
Tuesday 20th March.

Please can you let me know if you would like a slot to present during the
meeting, by 6th March.

As usual, please include a brief summary of what you want to talk about, a
pointer to the draft (if any), and the time.

Best regards,

Matthew
