Hi,

the IESG and IAB have discussed this BOF proposal today, and I have  
decided to not accept this BOF for Stockholm.

That said, I believe that the IETF should spin up work in this space,  
and my impression was that much of the IESG and IAB shared that  
opinion. The decision to turn down the BOF proposal for Stockholm was  
based on other factors:

First, the proposed work needs to be focused and detailed more, it is  
currently still too broad for an IETF effort and some of it is still  
unclear. (There is no charter proposal, for example.)

Second, because other industry forums and SDOs have been producing  
specifications in this space (DLS Forum, CableLabs, UPnP Forum, Wimax  
Forum, etc.), it will be important to identify where we will overlap  
with them and where we can complement their efforts.

Third, it is currently not clear how substantial the community is that  
would participate in an IETF effort in this space. Traffic on the  
mailing list has been absent, and I have also received only very few  
direct emails about it. This effort may require more socializing.

In order to get this work to a point where we can BOF it, I'd be very  
happy to offer time in the transport area area open meeting in  
Stockholm to discuss this effort. Another alternative may be the  
Internet area open meeting, because the proposed work touches on both  
areas. Instead of these open meeting discussion (or in addition to  
them), I'm also happy to get you a room for a bar BOF, if you like.

The idea is to raise interest in this work in Stockholm and discuss  
the issues I've identified above, in order to form a community around  
this work that will carry it to a successful BOF at IETF-76 in  
Hiroshima. I'm looking forward to help the effort along as best as I  
can.

Lars

I wonder how many people (like me) subscribed when we first saw
the mailing list announced last week on ietf@ietf.org, and have since 
been waiting to have someone kick off discussions.

Sorry, I was expecting a roundup before discussion began on homegate.

I do think a lot of this should be standardised behaviour, and that  
IETF is the place to standardise it.  In particular, v6 security  
policy and v4 traversal issues need standardising in a way favourable  
to IETF participants and by extension the net community (EG: v6  
defaulted, UPnP alternative).  I cannot speak for media protocols,  
that's for ITU or cable forum or whoever it is.  But I wanted to  
signify my interest in consensus-driven practices, though I can't  
attend IETF sessions yet.

Is there an alternative format for the PDF proposal?  I think I may  
not have read the entire thing (I'm using clumsy access with a screen  
reader at the moment and haven't installed pdf2txt).

Cheers,
Sabahattin

tbh I also expected somebody of the authors of the BOF proposal to kick 
off the discussion. If it up to the silent listeners to start it, I will 
do it now :-)

I think that the topic is very important and interesting, but I am not 
sure, the IETF is the right place for it. For me it sounds like the only 
thing you can standardize here is something like "A home gateway has to 
support protocol X, Y, and Z" and I don't see that there is the need to 
form a WG to do that. The protocol standards exist and most of the home 
gateways support them (or a subset of them), so why do we need another 
standard here? What did I miss here?

BTW I am sure whether I got it right, but a home gateway here is more or 
less that what xDSL modems are today? I mean, something that serves as a 
router for your local network and gateway to the internet?

Could be that the authors are busy or off the net at the moment, they'll
have to speak for that. From my own experience as an engineer who until
recently worked for a home gateway company in a product development role, I
think this is a vital piece of work and an area where IETF could make a huge
positive impact with less effort than is involved in several other areas.

Home gateways are the combinations of a NAT, an Ethernet switch, a Wi-Fi
access point, and some sort of WAN connection, which can be either a DSL
adapter, a cable modem, or a connection to an external layer two device
reached over a separate Ethernet connection or something more obscure like
MoCA. They're very low margin products, so the companies that produce them
tend to have more expertise at manufacturing than engineering, and very
little expertise specific to IETF protocols. The norm in the industry is
engineering managers who understand DSL but not DHCP and certainly not DSCP.
If you asked one to explain MPLS they would probably tell you it's the
sister city of St. Paul. 

A sub-sector of that industry builds specialized gateways for telcos that
includes a suite of management protocol called things like TR069 and TR098,
which were defined by the DSL Forum (now called the Broadband Forum) because
they didn't understand SNMP. The "TR" protocols have a very bizarre object
model that bears a minimal resemblance to any actual network devices, and
uses SOAP and XML instead of ASN.1. The one good thing about it is that it
can used to download firmware updates the ISP wants to get out.

The software in these boxes is open source combinations of Linux kernels,
busybox, and the related networking pieces, packaged with proprietary TR069
components. The principal packagers are Broadcom and Jungo.

>From the perspective of the engineering managers and customers, the software
is at best a nuisance, as they view their hardware and manufacturing
processes as the primary value of the boxes. Hardware tends to be designed
according to reference designs from the chip companies. 

Specs in this industry are laughably terse, generally consisting of Excel
spreadsheets that describe complete functional subsystems with two or three
garbled sentences. They're very heavy on buzzwords. It's a miracle that most
of these products don't explode the first time they're powered on.

The value of this BOF and eventual working group would be to define a
thorough BCP for the software components that go into home gateways. The
management protocol is pretty hopeless, but probably 75% of the code can be
drastically improved if the right people were to write a spec that described
the proper revisions, options, and features for the IETF protocols involved.
ECN was mentioned prominently in the PDF, and I can guarantee you personally
that there is no knowledge of ECN or why anybody would want it in the home
gateway industry. But if the IETF produces a BCP that says "Home gateways
should not halt and catch fire if they receive an IPv4 packet with ECN set,"
the next round of RFPs from the telcos and other ISPs to the gateway vendors
would include that requirement and the products would conform. 

I don't think it's realistic to try and slough this work off on UPnP or
DLNA, as those organizations are very application-oriented and don't have
great awareness of IETF protocols either. I personally sat through a whole
series of teleconference in which DLNA leaders proposed to limit MTU sizes
to 1000 octets because they didn't know how to do Path MTU discovery, such a
new thing it's only been specified since RFC 1191. According to DLNA, the de
facto standard protocol for streaming Internet video is HTTP, not RTP/RTSP.

The DNSSEC people have tested home gateways for compliance and found none of
them can handle UDP-framed request packets larger than 512 bytes. The home
gateway response is "what's DNSSEC?" 

I went to work in that particular segment because it seemed to me that it's
dragging down the whole Internet because it installs obsolete protocols in
hundreds of millions of homes and small offices around the world. I quickly
found that one person was not going to make much of a difference, and now
feel that it's an urgent priority for IETF to show some leadership in this
area. And believe me, if you don't, nobody else will and we'll all just keep
on complaining about the fact at ECN languishes even though it's been a
draft standard since 2001 (RFC 3168), and similar fate will befall DNSSEC. 

This is important work and it deserves some serious attention.

I agree, the PDF looked interesting, so I put myself on the list and
waited for a kick-off.

that discussion seems to have started now, which I'm very happy about.  
Andrew made a good proposal in his email: let's use the time before  
Stockholm to start working out what should be done, have an informal  
meeting in Stockholm with whoever is there to discuss things in  
person, and aim for a BOF in Hiroshima.

the protocol specifications are there, but some if not many home  
routers don't implement what some of us would consider the minimal  
subset of modern Internet functionality, and sometimes what they try  
and implement is buggy (braindead queueing, no ECN, no DNS over TCP or  
EDNS0, DHCP oddities, etc., etc.)

The idea isn't for this effort to do major (or maybe even any)  
protocol work; the idea is to document what the IETF believes a home  
gateway should implement at the minimum, and maybe at the optimum. A  
set of BCPs seems to be the correct vessel for this.

Correct.

Thus spake Lars Eggert <lars.eggert@nokia.com> [Fri, 12 Jun 2009 18:49:59 +0200]:
: The idea isn't for this effort to do major (or maybe even any)  
: protocol work; the idea is to document what the IETF believes a home  
: gateway should implement at the minimum, and maybe at the optimum. A  
: set of BCPs seems to be the correct vessel for this.

As the target consumers of this effort would be the end user, I think a set of
BCPs falls just short of the mark.  There needs to be some way for John Q.
Public to pick up a box, look at a logo or phrase, and understand exactly
what that product gives him.  i.e. 'Gateway Certified' would meet all stated
requirements for acting as your standard home gateway.  'Media Certified' means
it would also provide media functionality (DAAP, UPnP/DLNA).  'Print Certified'
would mean it provides a standard printer interface (can load arbitrary
printers, provides an IPP/whatever interface).  'Wireless Certified' would
mean it provided a WiFi-compliant network.

A small handful of 'certifications', as well as, say, a rating of 1-3 for each
of those certifications, would provide something clear and concise for the
consumer.  So, 'WiFi Level 1' would mean it provides basic Wireless access.
Level 3 would be WPA2, WMM, and XYZ support.  And so on.  Obviously, this would
quickly become overwhelming, so the number of 'certifications' would have to
be kept to a minimum.

However, this may be overstepping the boundaries of the IETF; I don't know.

If at all possible the router SHOULD NOT act as the default DNS proxy.

See draft-ietf-dnsext-dnsproxy for why.

Concur with all of the excerpted message, and especially this part I  
just quoted.

I'd much prefer that IETF be where the IPv4 and IPv6 functional  
requirements of residential Internet gateways are nailed down.  If we  
allow others to set these standards, then the whole Internet community  
will be forced to endure behaviors at residential gateways that may  
not fit well with the Internet architecture and could potentially  
cause widespread damage to the total utility of the Internet.

Politeness requires that I refrain from citing historical precedents  
for this that spring to mind when I think about how similar past  
missteps by IETF have greatly damaged the Internet.  I expect everyone  
on this distribution has already heard my intemperate rants on that  
subject.

Summary: I strongly advocate getting all our gear in one sack and  
setting a proper agenda for this work.  I'm prepared to take an active  
role in a working group, should one be formed.

That draft does not appear to explain why residential gateways SHOULD  
NOT be composed with a DNS proxy.  Indeed it makes no such  
recommendation, and its title suggests that it should be interpreted  
as guidelines for implementing a DNS proxy integrated with residential  
gateways.

If necessary, I'll be happy to explain why all Apple residential  
gateway appliances since January 2003 have had an integrated  
forwarding/resolving/caching DNS server, i.e. not merely a translating  
proxy.  We didn't bite off the extra work of doing it that way for  
light and transient reasons, not the least of which is the need to  
prepare IPv6 transition with Internet service providers where DNS  
service is provided over only one of the two protocol versions, IPv4  
or IPv6.

I agree with Ray.  Those DNS proxies exist only as an inadequate  
alternative to properly providing devices in the home with pointers to  
real recursive resolvers.

You're correct, it is more accurately a set of guidelines on how to 
_correctly_ implement a proxy, albeit also containing recommendations on 
how the proxy should step out of the way whenever possible.

Indeed, on doing the testing for ICANN SSAC report SAC035 we tested an 
Apple unit, and it faired relatively well.  I'd be happy to have a further 
offlist discussion about those parts where it didn't work quite so well.

kind regards,

Sounds good, I'm in and would also help to write those documents.

I've read the report, and we've had the discussion.  I suspect my  
disagreements about what works better than what else will eventually  
be part of the group discussion.

p1.  I've yet to be sold on the proposition that DNSSEC is headed for  
widespread application deployment.  For the sake of discussion here,  
I'm willing to assume it is, but I'm hesitating because Apple hasn't  
committed to DNSSEC yet and I'm not sure when, how or if it ever will.

p2.  There are DHCP-related issues that make attempting transparency  
of the local DNS proxy a very bad idea.  Ralph Droms and I still have  
a long-standing disagreement over where the root cause of that problem  
lies, but I contend the problem is with the DHCP protocol.  Once a  
client gets a lease, there isn't a reasonable way for a server to  
update it with new information immediately, i.e. when the DNS server  
addresses change.

p3.  Finally, in any residential gateway with a "connect-on-demand"  
feature, e.g. for providers who bill by the minute for connect time,  
which is not uncommon in some parts of the world, then the problem  
with DHCP described above becomes intolerable.  The demand trigger  
MUST be the initial DNS query, and the service-provider DNS servers  
haven't been configured yet when the user initiates the demand for an  
Internet connection, so the query MUST be handled by an integrated  
forwarding server that's aware of the connection demand protocol.

If and when I'm convinced that widespread application of DNSSEC is  
inevitable, then I will argue that residential gateways should be  
composed with a non-transparent and security-aware forwarding server.   
This will be the case unless and until RFC 5006 is used for  
configuring hosts with DNS server addresses.  I don't expect that to  
*EVER* happen, so I see no alternative to using an integrated, non- 
transparent DNS server.

I suppose it might be possible to enhance the DHCP protocol to address  
the deficiencies to which I'm referring, but I've been warned  
repeatedly that such heresy is highly unlikely to be received warmly  
by the DHCP working group.  So, I haven't tried even to initiate an  
exploration of the topic.  Perhaps, if a HOMEGATE working group were  
to converge on my view of how the DNS configuration problem should be  
solved, then the DHCP working group might see fit to reconsider some  
of its ancient history, which has led to the current less than  
spectacular results.

That's a key point to clarify early on - I forsee the target consumers as
being the box builders (rather than the end users who'll be purchasing the boxes
off the shelf of their local WalMart). Getting BCPs on how to build homegateways
seems like a concrete and reasonable target, without worry too much about
certification labels for now.

it's not clear that the consumer of this effort would be the end user  
- few IETF specifications are. In my mind, this was mostly about  
giving guidelines to vendors and operators.

We should definitely discuss if this effort could result in a document  
or two that were targeted at end users, but the bulk of the work  
probably wouldn't.

The IETF isn't doing standards certification, and there are good  
reasons for that. But nothing stops an outside entity to run a  
conformance test program based on IETF specs, and I agree that for the  
end users, some sort of easily identified distinguisher on the box  
would be helpful.

Thanks,
Lars

Operators are important here, especially in the v6 space where there  
is no established practice for connecting a home gateway to the ISP  
network. This has been under discussion in v6ops, how do the efforts  
here relate to that?

This would not only be about IPv6. As far as IPv6 is concerned, the  
current V6OPS docs would likely be referred to by what this effort  
would produce.

We could even think about moving the IPv6-home-gateway-related work  
form V6OPS to here, but I don't see that as very critical.

In my view, the above should be a key factor in our thinking.  IETF
standards get "enforced" by contracts.  Large numbers of these gateway
devices are sold or otherwise provided to end users by ISPs.  So if
ISPs have something to which they can require vendors to conform as
part of the ISPs' purchase of the devices or recommendation of them to
end customers, that will probably be enough market pressure to achieve
the desired result.

Andrew,

If you're considering ISPs using this work to enforce requirements on =
their vendors, it might be worth checking out some work that's already =
gone on in this area:

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional requirements =
for broadband residential gateways: =
http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf.


The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements: =
Residential Profile document: =
http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residential.pdf.

In addition, Broadband Forum has a work-in-progress document called =
PD-192 that deals with the functional IPv6 requirements for gateways in =
the home based on current operator plans for migration and deployment.  =
BBF was already planning to liaise the PD-192 document in the relatively =
near future to get feedback on it.

Thanks,
Heather

Actually, what we're finding is that most of the existing (and currently for
sale) home gateways do not provide sufficient support, or support these
things in ways not intended by the relevant standards authors.

A home gateway is different from a DSL modem, cable modem, etc.  It is the
general class of device that connects to that access device. These are often
branded as "home routers" though they are not purely routers. They variously
provide NAT/PAT, firewall services, DHCP servers for the LAN, etc.

It is probably my job to kick some of this off, and I have just been a bit
too busy.  ;-)

I'll soon start to circulate revisions for comment and I think we'd benefit
from some discussion at the next IETF meeting to better hone the scope of
potential work.

Good advice, Bernard.  We=B9ll have to figure out an easy way to enable remot=

Great feedback, Richard.  This is certainly consistent with what we've been
hearing from a number of concerned parties, and is much of the background
motivation for this work.

I think that's exactly what we'd like to do now and will be a good use of
time for the homegate list.

I'm not sure that end users are the target audience.  Instead, IMHO, I think
it is equipment vendors and large buyers (ISPs, mega retailers, etc.).

They're maybe not the audience for the documents that will be the  
output of an IETF effort, but they're absolutely the target audience  
for the products that will be built based on these documents. (Not to  
mention, they pay for everything!) As such, the user's needs must be  
front and center.

For instance, I think that someone mentioned something along the lines  
of "let's keep things simple and assume only a single subnet" (my  
interpretation). This won't do. Today, only advanced or dumb users  
have multiple subnets, but in the future with more and more heavy  
security requirements for working from home and appliances that  
connect to the home network, more and more regular users will want/ 
need multiple subnets. With IPv6 we have to specifically support this,  
we can't just let them double NAT like what happens often today if

Andrew,

If you're considering ISPs using this work to enforce requirements on =
their
vendors, it might be worth checking out some work that's already gone on =
in
this area:

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional requirements =
for
broadband residential gateways:
http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf.


The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements:
Residential Profile document:
http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residential.pdf.

In addition, Broadband Forum has a work-in-progress document called =
PD-192
that deals with the functional IPv6 requirements for gateways in the =
home
based on current operator plans for migration and deployment.  BBF was
already planning to liaise the PD-192 document in the relatively near =
future
to get feedback on it.

Thanks,
Heather

In my view, the above should be a key factor in our thinking.  IETF
standards get "enforced" by contracts.  Large numbers of these gateway
devices are sold or otherwise provided to end users by ISPs.  So if
ISPs have something to which they can require vendors to conform as
part of the ISPs' purchase of the devices or recommendation of them to
end customers, that will probably be enough market pressure to achieve
the desired result.

I don't really see any value in that. There are two approaches: do it  
fast, or get it right. As we are more than a decade into the broadband  
revolution the ship has sailed on the former, so we have to go for the  
latter. This means addressing everything to the degree it needs to be  
addressed, not iterate over stuff that has been out in the market for  
years.

I haven't read the PDF that is still mentioned in the subject,  
apparently I joined the list after it was posted so I'm not sure  
what's in there that is considered important or time sensitive. But  
I've been following the IPv6 CPE efforts in v6ops and think that is  
very important work. Unfortunately, it's a bit too complex to hammer  
out quickly.

I agree that this is an area where the IETF could do some useful work.

One of the things that has historically been a complaint about the DNS
specifications (and I bet about other protocols, but I know the DNS
case best) is that there's a giant pile of RFCs; and if you want to
know what you need to implement you have to read them all, figure out
what updates what, and then work out precisely what applies to your
case.  This is by no means an impossible task for someone who
understands how the RFC series works and who knows about DNS, but I
think it is unrealistic of us to assume that home-gateway builders are
going to undertake that kind of work.  I bet the state of affairs is
similar for other protocols, particularly older ones.

So just putting together a "Home Gateway Builder's Guide to the
Perplexed" would be a useful piece of work.  That said, I have some
sympathy with the decision not to hold the BOF in Stockholm, since
there isn't a lot around which to structure a BOF yet.

I would like to suggest that we on the homegate list should take the
time between now and Stockholm to start working out what we want to
do, and perhaps even put a proposed charter -- or -00 draft or two --
together so that we have something to nudge people towards reading in
Stockholm.  Such work might turn out naturally to fit under one or two
existing WGs, or else we might find that we actually need a WG for the
work; in the latter case, at the next IETF meeting we'll have the
opportunity to ask for a BOF again, with a proposed charter in hand.

I hereby volunteer to help with such work, particularly with respect
to DNS, DNSSEC and its interactions with home gateways.

A

+1. The end users, by and large, do not and will not know that the  
IETF exists.

I have been wading through all of this, and was surprised to see no  
mention
of multicast in

<http://trac.tools.ietf.org/bof/trac/raw-attachment/wiki/WikiStart/HomeGate%20BoF%20Proposal%20-%20IETF%2075%20-%20v7.pdf 
 >

A blow to the first round of multicast deployments (almost a decade  
ago now!) was the inability of
most of the then current home routers to support things such as IGMP  
proxying. If the IETF is going to specify a
new effort to specify home gateways, then in my opinion this  
specification should support at least SSM multicast reception properly.

Supporting multicast in the home environment is becoming common in  
video deployments, but the end user typically
does not see this on their home network and there is very little  
multicast support to the end user (instead of just to their set top  
boxes). However,
the trend in the industry is towards merging the reception of
Internet-transported video and provider-transported video into common  
hardware platforms. Internet video
would certainly benefit from support of multicast reception, and there  
seems to be a recognition of that in the industry. The CableLabs  
document "IPv4 and IPv6 eRouter Specification"
http://www.cablelabs.com/specifications/CM-SP-eRouter-I03-070518.pdf

states as their goal :

The specification defines a) CPE provisioning with IPv4 and IPv6  
addresses, b) IPv4 data forwarding with NAPT
and IPv6 data forwarding, c) Ability to forward IP Multicast traffic  
and d) Preserving IP QoS markings on IP data
to and from the CPE devices.

and includes sections on IGMP proxing as well as v4 and v6 multicast  
support. The other two documents mentioned as
parallel efforts :

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional  
requirements for broadband residential gateways:http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf 
.

The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements:  
Residential Profile document:http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residential.pdf 
.

also include multicast support.

So, while I support this effort, I would like to see multicast SSM  
added to Theme 1.

Regards
Marshall

P.S. Can I also suggest that what is basically a text file BOF charter  
should be served as a text file in the usual
fashion ?

CableLabs also has the eRouter specification, which was published at:

http://www.cablelabs.com/specifications/CM-SP-eRouter-I03-070518.pdf

All of these specifications make a large number of very specific =
mandatory requirements (lots of MUSTs) and were developed very quickly =
by a small number of people without any external review for a very =
limited and specific set of deployment patterns.  They are built with =
compliance in mind, and have organizations that have a history of =
testing products "to the spec".  They tend to have very little, if any, =
written justification for the requirements and don't have enough =
tutorial background material for developers to be able to make wise =
implementation choices or for those new to the area to understand where =
the protocols come from.  They have noticable, glaring holes and flaws =
that are no doubt a result of the time pressure and limited review.

What the IETF can do in this space is specifically not go the same route =
as these specifications and compete with them.  We can provide the =
missing background material in a simple, easy-to-understand, tutorial =
way.  We can fill in the holes and correct the flaws.  We can avoid =
being tied to any particular deployment pattern so as to remain relevant =
to all of them.  We can use the time we have and the broad review =
capabilities of the IETF to "get it right".  We can use MUST only when =
we have a good explanation for why it has to be there - and provide the =
explanation in the document(s).

- Wes

Andrew,

If you're considering ISPs using this work to enforce requirements on =
their vendors, it might be worth checking out some work that's already =
gone on in this area:

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional requirements =
for broadband residential gateways:
http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf.


The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements:
Residential Profile document:
http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residential.pdf.

In addition, Broadband Forum has a work-in-progress document called =
PD-192 that deals with the functional IPv6 requirements for gateways in =
the home based on current operator plans for migration and deployment.  =
BBF was already planning to liaise the PD-192 document in the relatively =
near future to get feedback on it.

Thanks,
Heather

In my view, the above should be a key factor in our thinking.  IETF =
standards get "enforced" by contracts.  Large numbers of these gateway =
devices are sold or otherwise provided to end users by ISPs.  So if ISPs =
have something to which they can require vendors to conform as part of =
the ISPs' purchase of the devices or recommendation of them to end =
customers, that will probably be enough market pressure to achieve the =
desired result.

Speaking of that: multicast streaming doesn't work over wifi. A lot of  
home gateways talk to the local hosts over wifi. How do we solve this?

If one is discussing IPv6 mcast, see section 7.2 for mcast specification
in the IETF v6ops IPv6 CPE Router document at the URL below.  Sorry, I
didn't get time yet to catch up with all the emails yet.

Subject: Re: [homegate] Homegate and Multicast

Speaking from experience with regards to eRouter, while we had "some"
use cases to incorporate SSM multicast into eRouterv1.0, we didn't have
the use cases that have emerged more recently. I'd agree that we need to
define multicast mechanisms (IGMP and MLD) and could reference existing
specifications for this effort, but we'll need to think first on the
aforementioned use cases long and hard. While IP video content delivery
is an emerging technology with many advocates and interested parties, it
can be difficult to sort through which use cases are realistic and which
are only exercises in theory.

Subject: [homegate] Homegate and Multicast



I have been wading through all of this, and was surprised to see no=20
mention
of multicast in

<http://trac.tools.ietf.org/bof/trac/raw-attachment/wiki/WikiStart/HomeG
ate%20BoF%20Proposal%20-%20IETF%2075%20-%20v7.pdf=20
 >

A blow to the first round of multicast deployments (almost a decade=20
ago now!) was the inability of
most of the then current home routers to support things such as IGMP=20
proxying. If the IETF is going to specify a
new effort to specify home gateways, then in my opinion this=20
specification should support at least SSM multicast reception properly.

Supporting multicast in the home environment is becoming common in=20
video deployments, but the end user typically
does not see this on their home network and there is very little=20
multicast support to the end user (instead of just to their set top=20
boxes). However,
the trend in the industry is towards merging the reception of
Internet-transported video and provider-transported video into common=20
hardware platforms. Internet video
would certainly benefit from support of multicast reception, and there=20
seems to be a recognition of that in the industry. The CableLabs=20
document "IPv4 and IPv6 eRouter Specification"
http://www.cablelabs.com/specifications/CM-SP-eRouter-I03-070518.pdf

states as their goal :

The specification defines a) CPE provisioning with IPv4 and IPv6=20
addresses, b) IPv4 data forwarding with NAPT
and IPv6 data forwarding, c) Ability to forward IP Multicast traffic=20
and d) Preserving IP QoS markings on IP data
to and from the CPE devices.

and includes sections on IGMP proxing as well as v4 and v6 multicast=20
support. The other two documents mentioned as
parallel efforts :

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional=20
requirements for broadband residential
gateways:http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf
.

The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements:=20
Residential Profile
document:http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residenti
al.pdf
.

also include multicast support.

So, while I support this effort, I would like to see multicast SSM=20
added to Theme 1.

Regards
Marshall

P.S. Can I also suggest that what is basically a text file BOF charter=20
should be served as a text file in the usual
fashion ?

That's fine, but what I was really suggesting was that charter

I fully agree. Note that many home uses have a 802.11 WLAN on the  
"home" side of the gateway, and many
home 802.11 access points do not do multicast well, or at all.

Of course, if the gateway hardware does not support it, all use cases  
are likely to remain academic.

Multicast does work over 802.11.  The trouble is that many access  
points don't do IGMP/MLD, so any multicast present on the wireline  
side of the LAN is flooded to the wireless. In an enterprise  
environment (with a faster LAN than WLAN, and potentially lots of  
multicast users), this has the risk to totally flood the 802 WLAN with  
unintended traffic. As a result, a lot of access points limit or block  
multicast by default.

It is not clear to me that that is as much of an issue in a home  
environment (where the WLAN is much faster than the link to the  
outside, and it is unlikely that there is also a wireline LAN with a  
lot of multicast traffic on it).

Saying that the Gateway should run IGMP/MLD might be enough to resolve  
this.

No, it works fine, it's just that most Access Points have to flood the  
traffic, so many (most?) limit or
block it by default. (Apple Airports used to limit multicast to 1 Mbps  
out of the box, for example, but
of course you could change it if you wanted to.)

Of course, when you are talking about home deployments, anything that  
requires people to change default
settings on their gateways to do something will eliminate 95% or more  
of the market.

See my other message on this for more details.

Some more thought has to be given to video over WiF because WiFi spans
my neighbor's home too and if the home router is not well secured and
managed, my video over WiFi goes to the neighbor's home as well.  The
video delivery has to be planned too because if cable operators send
broadcast quality TV video to a home, the video channel is encrypted and
theft safe.  Such encryption mechanisms may not exist with IPTV or local
video running in home including over wireless.=20

I haven't heard that. Is that a "should work" but doesn't due to common
flaws in implementation, or "cannot work" because of a flaw in the WiFi
specs? It would be out of scope if it's a question of the WiFi spec.

Marshall,

I caught up with your multicast thread. This looks thoroughly resolvable wi=
th a modicum of explicit behavioral definition and should apply, as you've =
stated below and elsewhere, regardless of the LAN side interface the mcast =
will traverse. On the important point of "defaults," we should define these=
 such that we do not require extensive reconfiguration by the professional =
installer or end user/customer, consistent with the view that all such chan=
ges to advanced functionality tend to incur user error (which can be worse =
than not working at all) or at the very least limit the use of the function=
ality substantially.=20

Such encryption mechanisms do not and will not in general exist with  
Internet video. (I am talking about content encryption, not protection  
of the 802.11 itself.)

In the case of IPTV, if the provider is providing "network"  
television, then (at least in the
USA) they do insist on encryption and other protections of the streams.
In many cases this extends to requiring use of approved hardware/ 
software solutions and even bringing
engineers on-site for certification, which
suggests that, if network television is ever going to be unbundled in  
the US (as I think it will),
then the home gateway effort would have to worry about this.

Regards
Marshall

P.S. If you are interested, I can recommend the IPTV-Users list at iptv-users@puck.nether.net

As a side note, this is a 4-year old document that emerged from an
initiative that started in 2005, the doc was last updated in May 2007.

Sure, getting something out to test it and realize what does not work is
always a plus.  Correcting flaws is good when you have products to test
with.

There is no competition really.  The IETF is an SDO and it is where the
expertise is, driven by end-user needs and e2e models (not solely driven
by a service provider model, even if it counts for some). There are
other organizations that need to be consulted like BBWF, UPnP Forum,
HGI, CableLabs, etc.
But what we all collectively need is to collaborate to come up with
requirements that home gateway vendors can implement for multiple
markets.  The IETF is a natural place to do some of what needed there.

To me, we've past the stage of tutorials.  We need specifications that
vendors can build to and the smaller set of requirements the better.

That would be ok.  Vendors can decide to implement SHOULDs and MAYs on
their own; some organizations will make those tighter by transforming
SHOULD into MUST to build compliance to specific scenarios.  But if we
all have a common base from IETF, it sure helps get there faster and
with scale, and with support for various user and service provider
deployment models.

Sure it does. I have done this professionally, to distribute video at  
shows. You need to pay attention to your SNR, RFI, etc.

802.11b will indeed saturate at something like 6 Mbps IIRC. Whether  
that is a very low bit rate is a matter of debate. In many instances,  
this is hard to tell. (If the bandwidth to the Internet is, say, 2  
Mbps, a 6 Mbps limit is hard to detect.) Clearly, as home Internet  
bandwidths increase, home LAN and WLAN speeds need to keep up.

The home use case is different from, say, the needs of the IETF  
meeting network and I frankly doubt a "one size fits all" solution is  
attainable.

FEC would be very useful for 802.11 multicasts, but I don't that  
Homegate should deal with Layer 3 FEC of wireless traffic. That should  
be provided by operators, streaming servers, etc.

It occurs to me as I write this that P2P is also an important home  
use, and Homegate should also
be aware of whatever comes from the ALTO / PPSP / LEDBAT efforts.

Of course, otherwise ARP or ND wouldn't work and IP over 802.11 would  
be impossible.

However, multicast _streaming_ doesn't work.

I've seen multicast rate limiting and the other issues that you  
mention may also be a factor. However, the real problem is that  
wireless is unreliable, and because there are presumably many  
listeners, the normal ACK/retransmission mechanism isn't used for  
broadcasts/multicasts on 802.11. So you lose many packets. Another  
problem is that in order to make multicasts for management protocols  
work those packets are sent at very low bitrates (1 - 6 Mbps) so even  
a few Mbps of multicast traffic saturates the wireless channel.

(BTW the 1 Mbps thing that you mention about Apple base stations isn't  
a rate limit but the rate at which multicasts are sent AFAIK. With an  
older Apple base station I had the situation that after three or so  
multicasts in quick succession multicasts would be block for a short  
time. With the newer AEBS that doesn't seem to be the case anymore but  
I haven't extensively tested this.)

Hi,

As DOCSIS 3.0 and the like boost the speeds which will available to 
consumers, I'd love to see home gateway devices support 9K MTUs (aka 
"jumbo frames"). Without home gateway support for jumbo frames, our 
chances of ever getting the Internet's end-to-end MTU to be greater 
than 1500 bytes, and thus our chances of broadly improving single 
stream TCP performance, appear rather bleak.

I'd also note that jumbo frame support is the classic "third leg" of the 
"advanced protocol triad," the other two bits being IPv6 and IP multicast. 
(e.g., see http://dc-2.grnoc.iu.edu/vn/analysis/connector-tech.html )

It would be a shame to do two of the three, only to miss the third.

Regards,

Some content providers, if you please. In this context you need to  
keep in mind that there are other parties at the table, many of whom  
do not view DRM as essential to their business model.

I would certainly not advocate re-inventing any of these wheels. From  
what I can tell, there are a number of groups, such as the VSF/SMPTE  
one, making rapid progress on open IPTV protocols. (Open standards,  
not generally open source.) To the extent that these get industry  
acceptance, they could ride on top of the Homegate effort.

I am not aware of much, except for the support of multicast, that  
Homegate would have to do to support these
protocols. The end user might need to buy a box or a NIC card, but if  
the gateway does not need to worry about
what's going on the wire, I don't think it should.

Regards
Marshall

I don't think it's true that multicast video is becoming common on  
home networks since it doesn't work too well on many home networks.   
It's really useful for control traffic, for things like discovery.

Kirk mentioned:

#DOCSIS 3.0 still uses 1518 octet framing, no jumbo support. Without giving
#out all the secrets, speed boost is a token bucket scheme which is 
#supplemented with PCMM dynamic gate control. The boost comes from a 
#different sub-layer than the one you may be thinking of.

Stipulated (virtually all home connectivity is still 1.5K MTU); I'd like 
to make sure we're correctly positioned for future revs where that may 
no longer be the case for all least some subset of home connectivity. 

If not, some years down the line we'll hear, "Well, we could take the WAN
transport to 9K frames, but none of the home gateways will support it," 
just as the comment now is/might hypothetically be, "Well, we could take 
the home gateways to 9K framess, but none of the WAN transport supports 
it." Classic chicken/egg deployment deadlock I suppose.

Nonetheless, if the home gateway device is conceptualized as including
a multiport 10/100/1000 switch as well as whatever else may be present,
sure like to at least see at least optional jumbo frame support for 
those integrated gig-capable ports.

Regards,

Joe

I didn't say that. I said that "multicast in the home environment is  
becoming common in video deployments."
Multicast is indeed common in IPTV and "switched digital video", at  
least outside of the US, but it is generally
not offered to the user directly, at least in the systems I am  
familiar with. (Some of the University IPTV deployments don't separate  
the video and user networks, and so do offer multicast to the end  
user.) Part of the
reason for that is the inability of NATs and gateways to support it,  
which this effort could do something about.

It would seem to me to be logical for the Homegate to support IPTV  
standards based on IP. Whether that requires extra work on the part of  
the gateway is what's not clear, at least to me.

Dear Joe;

Is there a definition yet for Jumbo frames ? I thought that IEEE  had  
said no to this.

Without a SDO-supported definition, I think that wide deployment and  
interoperation are problematic.

Your own web site, http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~joe/jumbo-clean-gear.html
shows what a mess this is in the absence of a standard.

Regards
Marshall

IPTV or not, the common use of multicast on home networks is for  
control not video, and it's not clear to me that this can be fixed in  
the gateway.

It would be very nice if people would stop assuming that the only  
interesting application of non-local scope multicast is to send live A/ 
V content efficiently.  Multicast is really only worth thinking about  
for A/V transport when the content is valuable only when it's *live*,  
because otherwise store-and-forward is more efficient, and it flows  
much better over unicast transports, e.g. TCP, SCTP, etc.

The truth is we really don't know what the interesting applications of  
non-local scope multicast will be until we have an Internet that can  
route it.  Sadly, we don't have one yet, and one of the reasons for  
that is that residential gateways, by and large, don't implement  
multicast routing protocols.

Because residential service providers won't route multicast transit.

The IPv6Ready <http://www.ipv6ready.org/> phase-2 certification  
doesn't even yet require support for a multicast routing protocol.

I don't actually think multicast is a pressing need right now or in  
the near future.  I see it becoming a pressing need in the foreseeable  
but somewhat distant future, when we have residential networks with  
zero-configuration routed subnetworks and we need non-local scope  
multicast for unmanaged service discovery, among other things.

Kirk commented:

#Point taken on your chicken and egg problem. But if you are going to do 
#jumbo frames, why stop at 9K? For a vendor building a gateway with off 
#the shelf components, 12K capability is reasonably common, though it 
#may be locked out in the software build that operates the MAC.

Indeed, my colleague Matt Mathis at PSC makes a persuasive case for what 
some call "super jumbo frames" for very high speed links, (e.g., see
http://staff.psc.edu/mathis/MTU/#pushing ) however my MTU ambitions are
a bit more incremental. No arguments with Matt's fine work, I'd just
get where he wants to go more gradually. (And 9K is a value that's 
currently widely supported on at least much of the wide area R&E 
infrastructure, so that's a target that I'd be most comfortable with 
for the time being)

Joe

Perhaps AMT Relay/Gateway services could be incorporated into the home
gateway. It could provide AMT tunnel services to the hosts over wifi,
and additionally connect as a gateway to an upstream AMT relay in
deployments where the multicast radius does not extend down to the
home.

Heather, Andrew,

For service providers (e.g., Telco's v.s. MSO's), it would be great to =
have some standardization of management protocols as part of this =
initiative. =20

The issue being that TR-069 is more Telco centric, and MSO's having more =
SNMP centric or proprietary methods of handling XML based data models.

We are seeing some sentiment from MSO's to use TR-069 related protocols =
to handle statistics for example, where more proprietary methods for XML =
or SNMP based methods of managing residential gateway functions is still =
well engrained.

It would be good to have involvement from someone at CableLabs.

Best regards,
Jeff

Andrew,

If you're considering ISPs using this work to enforce requirements on =

gone on in this area:

Broadband Forum TR-124 defines a set of modular functional requirements =
for broadband residential gateways: =
http://www.broadband-forum.org/technical/download/TR-124.pdf.


The Home Gateway Initiative also has a Home Gateway Requirements: =
Residential Profile document: =
http://www.homegatewayinitiative.org/publis/HGI_V1.01_Residential.pdf.

In addition, Broadband Forum has a work-in-progress document called =
PD-192 that deals with the functional IPv6 requirements for gateways in =
the home based on current operator plans for migration and deployment.  =
BBF was already planning to liaise the PD-192 document in the relatively =
near future to get feedback on it.

Thanks,

In my view, the above should be a key factor in our thinking.  IETF
standards get "enforced" by contracts.  Large numbers of these gateway
devices are sold or otherwise provided to end users by ISPs.  So if
ISPs have something to which they can require vendors to conform as
part of the ISPs' purchase of the devices or recommendation of them to
end customers, that will probably be enough market pressure to achieve
the desired result.

Marshall commented:

#Is there a definition yet for Jumbo frames ? I thought that IEEE  had  
#said no to this.

I believe you are correct, and yet 9K (or better) is broadly supported
by the vendor community and widely deployed (at least in the R&E community).

For example, the Large Scale Networking (LSN) Joint Engineering Team (JET),
(see http://www.nitrd.gov/subcommittee/lsn/jet/ ) has endorsed 9000 byte
MTUs, see http://www.nitrd.gov/subcommittee/lsn/jet/9000_mtu_statement.pdf

#Your own web site, http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~joe/jumbo-clean-gear.html
#shows what a mess this is in the absence of a standard.

You know me, I'm just eager to be able to add home gateway devices 
somewhere on that already messy page. :-;

(And FWIW, I do think that 9000 is the defacto standard for jumbo frames 
in practice, even if, unfortunately, not in the IEEE paperwork)

But I truly don't mean to side track this broader discussion.

I'm just hoping that we DO NOT end up with a specification which says 
that home gateway devices 

   "MUST NOT [or SHOULD NOT] support MTUs greater than 1500 bytes"

Rather, I'd hope that we DO end up with a statement that reads

   "SHOULD [or at least MAY] support MTUs of at least 9000 bytes"

instead.

Regards,

Joe

Yes, all the vendors that get together at the IEEE and refuse to do  
1500+ also happily build products that support larger packet sizes on  
802.3.

The IEEE's problem is that they need to retain compatibility with  
older versions of ethernet. So if I hook up my 10GE router to a 10GE  
switch with a gigabit ethernet port and that port to a cheap  
10/100/1000 switch and that switch to a prehistoric half duplex  
10baseT NIC, the packets need to be understood by the 10 Mbps system.  
So they can't be longer than 1500 bytes.

I've been working on a draft for a few years that allows IP hosts to  
negotiate non-standard frame sizes between them:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-van-beijnum-multi-mtu-02

Don't spend too much time on this text though, I plan to completely  
overhaul it for Stockholm.

Note that although 9000 bytes is a common jumboframe size, it's far  
from universal. Some NICs and many hosts and routers support other  
nonstandard sizes. A lot of cheap switches don't even break the 2k  
barrier but even a few dozen extra bytes can be useful to allow  
tunneling without path MTU discovery issues.

The point is that we break away from the "1500-only" assumption and  
get to use MTU sizes that fit the job at hand, not that we replace one  
limitation with another.

The problem with a home gateway is that it potentially has three  
interfaces: WAN, LAN and WLAN. On the LAN size, a 9000-byte MTU would  
be nice, but on the WAN side this may not be appropriate. For  
instance, ATM uses a ~4.5k default MTU and using 9000-byte packets  
with 128 kbps upstream capacity means that a packet occupies the wire  
more than half a second. I remember some time reading that 802.11 uses  
a 4k MTU under the hood but that the wifi alliance requires a 1500- 
byte MTU for wifi certification. In any event, I've never seen a wifi  
MTU that was user settable. Also, on high error links such as wifi  
using very large packets is bad for performance.

So a home gateway that supports jumboframes would almost certainly  
have to manage different MTUs on different interfaces. It would even  
be a good idea to only send 1500 byte packets on ports that are  
running at 10 or 100 Mbps because jumboframes are very uncommon with  
sub-gigabit gear.

Now this shouldn't be a problem if the home gateway can generate  
"packet too big" ICMP/ICMPv6 messages even when it's switching. So two  
hosts connected to the HGW @ 1000 Mbps could talk 9000-byte packets  
between them but be limited to 4.5k for packets going out to the  
service provider and 1500 for packets going to hosts connected to the  
HGW over wifi. It would still be necessary to set MTU sizes on the  
different interfaces, though.

Actually, the "real problem" with multicast over 802.11 is related to
acknowledgements, but isn't simply a matter of reliability or the lack
thereof. 802.11 is a multi-rate system, and it decides which rate to use for
any given association based on successful and unsuccessful transmissions.
The ACKs are important because they close a feedback loop, but MAC-level
multicast doesn't have any ACKs, so the sender doesn't know how fast to
transmit. One of the common ways around this problem - which is really a
defect in 802.11 - is to convert each multicast streams into a series of
unicasts. So instead of a multicast stream going out at 2 Mb/s, you have two
or three unicast streams at 54 (or higher, for 802.11n.) 

Some of your larger Wi-Fi chip vendors include this capability as a standard
feature in their Linux drivers (for use in home gateways.) Converting IP
multicast to Wi-Fi unicast is the classic example of a "SHOULD"
recommendation. 

Regarding the problem of jumbo frames, note that Wi=Fi has always supported
a larger-than Ethernet MSDU, 2304 bytes, and it also supports fragmentation
so it shouldn't care in principle how large your MTU is. 

The question of Wi-Fi frame sizing for performance is largely moot for
higher-level protocols in 802.11e and n, since the aggregation scheme takes
care of it, so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

Of course, otherwise ARP or ND wouldn't work and IP over 802.11 would  
be impossible.

However, multicast _streaming_ doesn't work.

I've seen multicast rate limiting and the other issues that you  
mention may also be a factor. However, the real problem is that  
wireless is unreliable, and because there are presumably many  
listeners, the normal ACK/retransmission mechanism isn't used for  
broadcasts/multicasts on 802.11. So you lose many packets. Another  
problem is that in order to make multicasts for management protocols  
work those packets are sent at very low bitrates (1 - 6 Mbps) so even  
a few Mbps of multicast traffic saturates the wireless channel.

(BTW the 1 Mbps thing that you mention about Apple base stations isn't  
a rate limit but the rate at which multicasts are sent AFAIK. With an  
older Apple base station I had the situation that after three or so  
multicasts in quick succession multicasts would be block for a short  
time. With the newer AEBS that doesn't seem to be the case anymore but  
I haven't extensively tested this.)

Hi all,

I want to raise another topic which will be important in the future: Starti=
ng with smart metering (at least in the EU), M2M applications will become m=
ore common also for end-users. Till now there are no standards available de=
aling with M2M connectivity, but some activities have started recently (e.g=
. in the ETSI). Although we might not be able to take them into account for=
 the first draft (since they just began), but we should keep in mind, that =
there will be some new standards regarding M2M connectivity in the near fut=
ure (perhaps very near in the EU because of the smart metering regulations =
that force operators and energy utilities to do something), which might/sho=
uld be included in the home gateway. If they are not, users would need more=
 than one, which is uncomfortable.

Carolin

Hi again,

Although I managed it already, I want to start a separate discussion about =
the management of the home gateway. I think, that might be an important top=
ic too. There are several points to discuss:


1)      Who manages/ configures such a device? The user? The operator? Does=
n't matter?

2)      Is it a device, that can also be used for networks, that are not co=
nnected to the Internet? (which means, that management/configuration over a=
 server in the Internet is not possible)

3)      Are there at least parts of the device, that cannot be accessed by =
the user (the operator can use it for whatever reason, e.g. network specifi=
c configurations...)?

4)      ...

I just think loud :) Maybe we don't want to deal with that, but I think it =
could be interesting to take those things in account too.

Carolin

able to at least set requirements there.

This didn't make sense to me at first, because the host then would see  
unicast packets. But now I realize that this would simply send an IP  
multicast packet, and possibly even an ethernet multicast packet, as  
an 802.11 unicast packet, right?

This seems like a useful trick in a home gateway setup where we must  
assume that there may be significant interference and the number of  
hosts listening to the same multicast group probably wouldn't be too  
high.

Right, we convert the IP multicast to 802.11 unicast. Similar tricks are
done to adapt IP to layer 2 networks that don't support broadcast or
multicast addressing.

This technique is used in many home gateways today, as well as in most
enterprise WLAN switches. Not for doing the "setup," but for streaming to a
smallish multicast group.

Here are my thoughts:

The device does not necessarily have to be a home gateway.  By way of  
example, look at Apple's Airport Express, and the numerous ways it can  
be used: as NAT box, as WAP/bridge, as extender, simply as print  
server and audio receiver ...

I don't think, in a sentence, that it's right to deliberately  
constrain devices when there's no reason.  Right now it's hard enough  
separating out layer 2 upstream from residential gateway, especially  
for DSL, since a lot of messing about has to happen to make a DSL  
modem that emulates a cable modem (because PPP brings the need to do  
things like layer 3 proxying of DHCP, for instance).  I wonder Apple  
gets much sale at all - the real benefitiary of their products are  
cable modem users, or maybe PPPoE over anything users.  In the  
meantime many DSL boxes already do NAT and we have a lot of double- 
natted subnetworks where consumers have tried to make a "Router" work  
with a "DSL modem".

Of course, I don't say integrated devices are bad.  But utilitarianism  
is what I believe in fundamentally, however simple the process is.

Cheers,
Sabahattin

Firmware update methods were a topic of discussion when a few parties met to
discuss the problem space in Philadelphia months ago.  One of the issues is
related to why web browsers and operating systems now perform automatic
checks for updates.  Today, this generally does not happen, though in some
cases it can be prompted by the user savvy enough to visit the local device
management web page periodically.  In any case, there are regular security
fixes which are made available and without recommendations on how updates
should occur (user intervention, automatically downloaded, automatically
applied, etc.) many devices leave this to the users -- and probably 90%+ of
the user base will never upgrade the firmware on the device.

The telco-deployed gateways are managed as CPE, using the TR stuff for
firmware upgrades, but for the retail product about all we can do is advise
customers to periodically apply upgrades the hard way. In a perfect world, I
suppose there would be a single web site where both customers and support
people could go to see what the latest revision is for every gateway, but
this isn't such a world.

Another option is to declare it a BCP to have an easy "check for upgrade"
button on the first page of the gateway's GUI or something similar.

Are we only interested in a generic software mechanism ("how") that be

related to why web browsers and operating systems now perform automatic
checks for updates.  Today, this generally does not happen, though in some
cases it can be prompted by the user savvy enough to visit the local device
management web page periodically.  In any case, there are regular security
fixes which are made available and without recommendations on how updates
should occur (user intervention, automatically downloaded, automatically
applied, etc.) many devices leave this to the users -- and probably 90%+ of
the user base will never upgrade the firmware on the device.

Or even better, we can recommend that the gateway automatically check an ftp
archive for updates and apply them like Windows does with patches. Vendors
could allow this feature to be turned off by the skilled user, but by
default it should be on.

Well, I'm not sure that all vendors would want to use the
same protocol - I think pretty much everything in the desktop
space that gets used is proprietary, so I think that we'd
be more in the business of stating requirements, e.g.
that there must be an auto-update that can be easily turned
off and on, that the update protocol must strongly authenticate
the source of updates, that updates must not have to happen
on a single connection (trickle-updates) etc.

I don't think there'd be too much work to get that done,
so I could envisage a nice short RFC that'd be useful to
vendors who were designing their own update schemes.

OTOH, if there were a sufficient number of folks that wanted
to define an IETF s/w update protocol that might be worthwhile,
but I've not seen that demand. I guess the main argument for
the IETF being involved in that would be to make it easier
for vendors to just pick up something that's high quality,
rather than making e.g. the security mistakes that might
otherwise happen. However, it seems to me that that might
need a WG all of its own, for which I doubt the interest
exists.

I still think it'd be useful for this group to specify
update requirements since as others said, this is an area
where embedded devices are sadly lacking.

I concur. Don't get hung up on the protocols, just keep the functions clear=
 and concise. Given the disparity in management models, this could easily b=
ecome a time-sink without much value to the end product.

Subject: Re: [homegate] Management of the Home Gateway




Well, I'm not sure that all vendors would want to use the
same protocol - I think pretty much everything in the desktop
space that gets used is proprietary, so I think that we'd
be more in the business of stating requirements, e.g.
that there must be an auto-update that can be easily turned
off and on, that the update protocol must strongly authenticate
the source of updates, that updates must not have to happen
on a single connection (trickle-updates) etc.

I don't think there'd be too much work to get that done,
so I could envisage a nice short RFC that'd be useful to
vendors who were designing their own update schemes.

OTOH, if there were a sufficient number of folks that wanted
to define an IETF s/w update protocol that might be worthwhile,
but I've not seen that demand. I guess the main argument for
the IETF being involved in that would be to make it easier
for vendors to just pick up something that's high quality,
rather than making e.g. the security mistakes that might
otherwise happen. However, it seems to me that that might
need a WG all of its own, for which I doubt the interest
exists.

I still think it'd be useful for this group to specify
update requirements since as others said, this is an area
where embedded devices are sadly lacking.

I agree it's the function that matters, not the means. Take my reference to

I concur. Don't get hung up on the protocols, just keep the functions clear
and concise. Given the disparity in management models, this could easily
become a time-sink without much value to the end product.

Don't know what M2M means...

In the case of smart metering, where a service provider that isn't the  
_internet_ service provider wants connectivity to devices in the home,  
things get interesting.

For instance, what if the utility company wants to borrow some  
capacity on my internet connection for smart metering but I don't have  
one?

I guess this is often/usually solved by installing their own  
connectivity, which would be effective but wasteful. I can envision a  
situation where utility companies etc get to use a little bandwidth  
(at an extra-low traffic class) on through _any_ home gateway that  
they can connect to (over wifi or maybe through IP-over-electricity  
grid) regardless of whether this home gateway belongs to the exact  
same customer as the meter in question. Of course there are some  
authentication/authorization issues here.

One of the issues that I as a home user have is that my internal  
network is kept safe from devices that I have little control over,  
such as utility meters, IP refrigirators and so on, which the utility  
company or refrigiration service provider or what have you, or, more  
likely, anyone who manages to hack into these devices, could use to  
spy on my local traffic.

I don't think we're anywhere close to being able to write specific BCPs for
smartgrid monitoring and control. Regarding the question of grabbing other
people's bandwidth, you're likely to run afoul of the law in many
jurisdictions if you want to do that. The Homeplug networking folks (LAN
over home power lines) ran into a problem simply trying to coordinate
beacons in neighboring houses because it would have required deliberately
sending an unsolicited message. 

It seems to me that we can draw a bright line between current,
well-understood practices and things that someone might want to do in the
future. This activity needs to have a here-and-now focus.

There'll be screams of cold bloody murder if this sort of thing gets  
used for evil purposes like interception and/or monitoring.  Some  
people like the control over installed software.  Windows, with its  
multitude of unwanted critical patches, goes for example.  As a  
general rule I doubt most people will care but I think users should  
probably be notified in advance that their gateway has a will of its  
own.

On a related note, for appliances needed to gain utilities like for  
instance VoIP, a service provider often wants his box between yours  
and your main pipe in order to gain the necessary QoS.  (Presumably,  
there is a case to be made for getting working QoS markings supported  
by homegates.)

I'm not in favour of either needing alternative connectivity for  
utilities, nor particularly of tampering with the network.  I should,  
and consumers should, be able to just plug it in and make it work  
(trademark, patent applied for).

I agree, that people *should* be notified, but it is not necessarily the ca=
se today. My (ISP) DSL router for instances updates itself from time to tim=
e. There is nothing I can do about it. One of the updates moved the wireles=
s configuration to my ISP's server (not really sure why but I have a theory=
 that might make sense) and even if I - as an experienced and skilled user =
- do not want that, I have to accept that or install an additional AP. So, =
probably we should try to find a trade-off between what we - as techies - w=

 of the people won't care (even if they should :( )

There'll be screams of cold bloody murder if this sort of thing gets =20

No, it shouldn't be. Updates often cause just as many problems as they  
solve. Having a home gateway that worked just fine break because  
someone decided to push out an update is completely unacceptable.  
Especially because update procedures are often lengthy, may render the  
device unusable if interrupted, and if the device ends up in a non- 
working state there is no recovery because there is no internet  
connection.

Totally agree, if an update renders the gateway offline, the ISP will 
have thousands of angry users knocking at its door with a brick on their 
hands.

It's true that firmware upgrading is easier and less risky than 
operating system or other software updates, as the hardware is 
(supposedly) all the same. But still, for such a critical device on the 
home network, I would be very careful and leave the updating to the 
user, maybe reminded by an applet on the GUI of the gateway.

In order for this to work, you would have to have basic connectivity
without the firmware upgrade.  Something like ROMMON on Cisco routers
would do the trick: a very basic OS with just the capability of
contacting the server and downloading upgrades, and then boot the main
OS, which would be upgraded.  Then you would also need to have enough
regression done on updates to be sure that there won't be a deployment
problem - something like the regression scripts that Debian runs for
upgrades may do the trick.  The question is: with the razor-thin margins
on this device, could vendors afford to provide this capability?

No, it shouldn't be. Updates often cause just as many problems as they
solve. Having a home gateway that worked just fine break because someone
decided to push out an update is completely unacceptable. =20
Especially because update procedures are often lengthy, may render the
device unusable if interrupted, and if the device ends up in a non-
working state there is no recovery because there is no internet
connection.

Um ... As one of those IEEE 802 people, and as a contributor to Broadcom's
significant Ethernet and switch expertise, I *do* have an opinion on
larger-than-standard MTUs. They are, in general, a bad idea in any network
that includes less than gigabit links (which will likely be the case for a
very, very long time).

The problem is that a 1500 byte packet occupies the wire for a good 120us o=
r
so at 100Mbit/s. This is just barely tolerable when there are various
classes of real-time traffic that have to be multiplexed together. We are
just now finish a set of standards within 802.1 that will provide assured
delays on the order of 2ms through 7 bridges (switches) using 100baseT. 2ms
is a magic number in the audio biz, since that is the maximum network delay
for live music (the actual acceptable "hit the drum, hear the sound" delay
is 10ms, but that includes processing delays and the speed of sound from
monitor speakers to the drummer's ears). 100baseT is the baseline for all
use models in this space because it is "free" and the bandwidth is more tha=
n
adequate.

Anyway, that 120us wiretime introduces an equivalent head-of-queue delay in
all egress ports, so we are already up to 8*120us =3D 960us just because th=
e
existing packets can be 1500 bytes. There is only another 130us per egress
port that we can allow before we violate our starting requirement ... Which
goes towards shared delays between other realtime streams as well as wire
and pipeline delays.

There are some other traffic management concerns about longer MTUs,
frequently related to link round-trip delays. Waiting around for jumbo
frames introduces extra delays in any control loop, and should be avoided.

Finally, I think there is no reason to be concerned about the 1500 byte
limit for MTUs w/r/t TCP performance over Ethernet as long as a reasonably
modern NIC is used. The really cheap 1G and 100M NICs that we currently shi=
p
have automatic IP packetizing (load up a DMA buffer with 32k bytes and the
NIC will break it into the appropriately formatted and sized TCP frames).
All of our competitors can do the same (with the possible exception of the
Intel chipsets). The resulting packet stream is within a few percent as
efficient as a jumbo frame, without interfering with the QoS of other
streams

Hi Mike,

You mentioned:

#100baseT is the baseline for all use models in this space because it is 
#"free" and the bandwidth is more than adequate.

By "free" I assume you mean "is bundled with shipping products by default."

If I've interpreted that correctly, note that even systems as modest as 
Apple's Mac Mini (a ~$600-class box) now support gigabit ethernet, and 
if a PC ships without a gig NIC, adding one is a <$30 correction (if not
less, checking www.pricewatch.com/browse/networking/gigabit_adapter/ )

I thus don't think it is safe to assume that customers will only have 
10/100-capable hosts any more, and I think it would be a mistake to fail
to acknowledge the market reality of 1000/100/10baseT NICs in a growing 
number of consumer-class systems.

And when it comes to the adequacy of 100Mbps worth of bandwidth, I think
that applications like the network backup of increasingly disk-heavy 
systems to cheap TB-class external disks will drive demand for 
better-than-fast-ethernet speeds (assuming users don't abandon ethernet 
entirely for those sort of external disk systems).

#Finally, I think there is no reason to be concerned about the 1500 byte
#limit for MTUs w/r/t TCP performance over Ethernet as long as a reasonably
#modern NIC is used. The really cheap 1G and 100M NICs that we currently 
#ship have automatic IP packetizing (load up a DMA buffer with 32k bytes 
#and the NIC will break it into the appropriately formatted and sized TCP 
#frames).

The problem is that we just don't see people getting the throughput they
"should," even when running on high bandwidth and zero loss networks. See,
for example http://netflow.internet2.edu/weekly/20090615/#select

-- the 50th %-ile for bulk file transfers is only 3.6Mbps
-- the 99th %-ile for bulk file transfers is only 68.2Mbps

We can discuss why that may be true, and believe me, many folks have, but 
the reality is that if your performance focus is on single stream high 
throughput TCP flows (rather than low jitter), we really need all the help 
we can get, and that includes jumbo frame support for gig links.

Failing that, I think we'll increasingly see a lot of fairly ugly things,
like large numbers of parallel TCP flows in an effort to increase their
throughput to what it "should be."

Ok, I can go along with that for the most part.

Not sure though if it's reasonable to expect the networking stack to  
know the speed at which the interface is operating at any given time...

Right. At 100 Mbps we don't really need jumboframes yet so there  
shouldn't be a conflict between our respective goals.

With ethernet we have a 32-bit CRC that has a hamming distance of 3  
upto 11454 byte packets. So going to 11455 bytes increases the  
potential for undetected errors quite significantly. So I don't see  
gigabit ethernet vendors going beyond that, which means your  
serialization delay would be some 91 us for 11k packets on gigabit  
ethernet vs 120 for 1.5k packets on fast ethernet.

Unfortunately, the NIC is only part of the story. Between to MacBook  
Pros (which I don't think offload anything to the NIC except the  
checksum) I can do 86 MB/s with regular packets and 116 MB/s with  
jumboframes.

Routers and switches may need more power in order to switch larger  
numbers of packets for the same amount of data.

Another issue is that there is a packet size dependency in the TCP  
algorithms which means that for a given loss probability you're going  
to run much faster with larger packets.

But they don't put them back together again on the receiving side.  :-)

I disagree (about the Fast Ethernet, not the jumboframes). Anything we  
do will be for the 2011 and after time frame.
By that point, I would expect Gig-E to be routine in SOHO use, at  
least, if not in home use as well.

Anyone who is doing home video work, for example, is likely to be on  
Gig-E already. I would also dare say that
many people running Gig-E in the home don't know it.

My personal feeling is to stay away from jumbo, but I would suggest  
not doing anything to forestall fast LANs.

Marshall

I don't understand what you're disagreeing with.

Do you want jumboframes on fast ethernet too?

Do you NOT want jumboframes on gigabit ethernet either?

Why?

My cable company provides updates to my cable modem.  Fine; if they  
break it, it's their fault, and they lose.  But my home gateway is  
mine, and it merely flashes it's status light (which, being blind, I  
can't see) to indicate update availability.  Perhaps this is good  
enough for Joe Consumer.

For cable there are generally better possibilities for delivering  
updates in an automatic and side-channel process.  The same can't be  
said for DSL because, as somebody mentioned, the primary lin *is* the  
update delivery method, and if you bust the brick, you've lost a  
customer and probably broken his network too.

Cheers,
Sabahattin

I want this effort to support Gig-E and even 10Gig-E. I do not want  
decisions to be taken strictly assuming Fast-Ethernet. (There might  
not be any other
issues besides jumboframes, but if there are ...).

I personally would like jumboframe support IF that can be done in a  
sane fashion. I don't see how you can define
jumboframe support at the present without defining jumboframes, and I  
am not sure that this is within scope for the present effort.

There is a SDO failure here -
there are many jumboframes in use because IEEE won't define one. It  
seems to me that some group will step up and create a definition that  
will stick,
probably as a consequence of some other standard that needs  
jumboframes. I am just not sure that this should be that group.

Marshall

Hi,

I think there is a need for common management, and functionality that the u=
ser can relate to besides the branding on the carton. The average user is b=
ecoming very aware of the technologies in use, still most CPEs is sold with=
 little-to-nothing about what dark magic it supports and how it can be mana=
ged, besides the logos. Document (3) could act as a baseline, if you are pl=
anning on specifying more than just management, also functionality.

Management (1) and the data models to go with it standardize a way for oper=
ators to manage the CPE and devices behind it. I think that at some point t=
his has been considered, at least how to separate users that want to manage=
 this them selves. The table on page 20 (2) specifies a attribute named "Up=
gradesManaged" that an CWMP ACS should relate to, that states if the ACS sh=
ould manage firmware or not. For our part, notification of firmware upgrade=
s will in the future be done through walled garden.
=20
A complicating factor of firmware management is that physical interoperabil=
ity is at best intricate; we spend a great deal of time making this work fo=
r every single release. In some countries this is at such a level that comp=
etition within the CPE marked is non existent. This is a thing to keep in m=
ind.

At the same time I think most ISPs are becoming aware of the fact that the =
CPE terminating the access line is becoming an important part of their netw=
ork, since they are now delivering services deep within the customer's netw=
ork (IPTV, SIP, alarms, power readings, backup, you name it). In other word=
s I suspect that the box in charge of terminating the line for the customer=
 in a much larger degree will have to be owned and/or managed by the ISP. T=
his in turn leads to reports, documents, standards that define management o=
f devices in the home network as seen from the Broadband Forum.

I'm not saying that retail products (CPE), but I think we must consider the=
 implications of such a standard and be careful :-) For a layer 3 device de=
ep within the network, these kind of considerations does not apply. Still f=
irmware upgrade (or what I would like to call firmware change, since it is =
not always per se an 'UPgrade') is a tedious process, many considerations f=
or how this can be done as safe as possible is outlined in the different Br=
oadband Forum documents.

The telco-deployed gateways are managed as CPE, using the TR stuff for
firmware upgrades, but for the retail product about all we can do is advise
customers to periodically apply upgrades the hard way. In a perfect world, =
I
suppose there would be a single web site where both customers and support
people could go to see what the latest revision is for every gateway, but
this isn't such a world.

Another option is to declare it a BCP to have an easy "check for upgrade"
button on the first page of the gateway's GUI or something similar.

Firmware update methods were a topic of discussion when a few parties met t=
o
discuss the problem space in Philadelphia months ago.  One of the issues is
related to why web browsers and operating systems now perform automatic
checks for updates.  Today, this generally does not happen, though in some
cases it can be prompted by the user savvy enough to visit the local device
management web page periodically.  In any case, there are regular security
fixes which are made available and without recommendations on how updates
should occur (user intervention, automatically downloaded, automatically
applied, etc.) many devices leave this to the users -- and probably 90%+ of
the user base will never upgrade the firmware on the device.

I got to play with a Mac with a 10GE card in it a few years ago.  
Pretty sweet. Used 16k jumboframes, BTW.

Ethernet is ethernet, it's all compatible. I'm sure more and more  
vendors will build in gigabit the coming years and I don't think  
anyone on this list is opposed to that or has anything that would get  
in the way of that.

What I'm assuming is that if we can, we'll probably want to use  
jumboframes on gigabit ports and disable jumboframes on ports running  
at 10 or 100 Mbps.

You mean a size?

That's exactly the wrong thing to do. We have 30 years of 1500 byte  
installed base. So we need to be able to determine whether we're  
talking to someone who can do 1500 or someone who can do larger than  
1500. We can of course make this a one bit decision between 1500 or  
9000 or some such, but if we're going to do all this work we really  
don't want to have to do it again when someone builds a NIC that can  
do 12000. So rather than 1 bit for jumbo yes/no we should use 32 bits  
that can hold the exact packet size that's supported even when we grow  
beyond 64k.

(Note that I've personally worked with ethernet gear that supported  
9000, 9216, 16384 and 64000. Looking at vendor documentation I came up  
with at least a dozen other sizes. Trying to standardize a jumboframe  
size is going to be very hard.)

> and I am not sure that this is within scope for the present effort.

Right. I suggest that those interested in this go to the intarea list,  
I'm going to post an update of my draft there later this week.

I'd like to remind people that frame size is a MAC protocol issue, and not
something that the IETF needs to have a specific opinion about, beyond "be
conservative in what you send and liberal in what you accept." If 802
permits or mandates support for jumbo frames, it will happen, and if they
don't it probably won't.

The fact of the matter is that the telco home gateways already support
automated firmware updates, with the appropriate failsafes and recovery
mechanisms to deal with the odd case of a failed update. So the question is
whether the retail home gateways should strive for a similar level of
functionality. It seems to me that automated firmware updates are the only
way to ensure that updates will ever be applied in most cases, as the
typical user probably never uses the management GUI and would therefore
never be able to force an update via manual means.

While there's some element of risk in any action, the risk of updating
firmware in the process that's well-specified for authentication and
recovery is less than the risk of never updating and therefore exposing the
Internet to the consequences of bad code.

In order for this to work, you would have to have basic connectivity
without the firmware upgrade.  Something like ROMMON on Cisco routers
would do the trick: a very basic OS with just the capability of
contacting the server and downloading upgrades, and then boot the main
OS, which would be upgraded.  Then you would also need to have enough
regression done on updates to be sure that there won't be a deployment
problem - something like the regression scripts that Debian runs for
upgrades may do the trick.  The question is: with the razor-thin margins
on this device, could vendors afford to provide this capability?

No, it shouldn't be. Updates often cause just as many problems as they
solve. Having a home gateway that worked just fine break because someone
decided to push out an update is completely unacceptable.  
Especially because update procedures are often lengthy, may render the
device unusable if interrupted, and if the device ends up in a non-
working state there is no recovery because there is no internet
connection.

The problem is that IP assumes that every subnet has a fixed MTU.  
Since obviously the 1500-byte stuff isn't going anywhere, the addition  
of jumboframe-capable hardware creates a problem, because now we have  
systems with two (or more) different MTUs on a subnet, which doesn't  
work in the general case although the TCP MSS option hides a multitude  
of sins. (Not the sin of having a 1500-byte switch sit between all the  
jumbo-capable systems, though.)

Also not exactly true. Like I wrote before, the same vendors that make  
up IEEE 802.3 also build products that ignore the 1500-byte MTU limit  
in 802.3.

Aren't jumbo frames generally used within the LAN? When they are, there's no
need for fragmentation. When they pass through the NAT toward the Internet,
it's a different story, of course, but we don't have so many Gigagbit WAN
connections today, outside of high-end consumers in Japan.

Ole,
=20
While I'd agree we could perhaps come up with a framework for how features =
(mandatory and vendor defined) "should" be supported within the gateway fro=
m a UI/management perspective, I think this may get too far into product sp=
ecification grounds and away from a spec that is basically about features/f=
unctions unless we very carefully map out the expectations here.=20
=20
With regards to management, I quote your thread from below: "Management (1)=
 and the data models to go with it standardize a way for operators to manag=
e the CPE and devices behind it."
=20
This is a sore spot in cable. We had a magnificent specification developed =
to do just that. It produced a very complex, very expensive box that lacked=
 alignment with trends towards more and more user managed gateways. It is f=
or that reason I would agree that some effort to craft text around user-man=
agement expectations should be included in the document. However, it's my v=
iew we need to resist the temptation to over-specify low level functionalit=
y/look and feel with regards to management and should de-emphasize service =
providers ownership of the device management. If we can agree, for example,=
 on a set of user-management functions, what might those be? Here is an exa=
mple of a few, in no particular order and open to debate:
=20
1) a Web based UI exposing configuration management of features defined els=
ewhere in the document=20
2) a "return to default" configuration option to ensure that any meddling d=
one by the user that causes unexpected behavior can be neutralized with a r=
eset to default option and a reboot of the device. This option is applicabl=
e to a push-pin, a software-only method or some other method. There may be =
some value in standardizing down to one or two approaches, though if these =
devices aren't managed by the service provider (customer care doesn't have =
to keep a sheet of all potential methods for every model router) this may n=
ot be necessary.
3) A method of backing up/restoring configurations so that configurations c=
an be restored when new configurations are tried. The simplest way to do th=
is is allow the user's PC to store the configs and back/restore "off board"=
 of the router itself (reduce the need for the router to be able to discern=
 one config over another to boot from). For example, the user could "test" =
a configuration change and if odd behavior occurs, revert. This is in addit=
ion to a reset to defaults since the defaults may have features disabled or=
 configured differently than the customer requires. As the number of featur=
es and the interactions among features increases, odd behavior is bound to =
pop up with a bad configuration choice. This could manifest as decreased pa=
cket forwarding performance, or other telltales that only occur when using =
certain applications. =20

Subject: RE: [homegate] Management of the Home Gateway



Hi,

I think there is a need for common management, and functionality that the u=
ser can relate to besides the branding on the carton. The average user is b=
ecoming very aware of the technologies in use, still most CPEs is sold with=
 little-to-nothing about what dark magic it supports and how it can be mana=
ged, besides the logos. Document (3) could act as a baseline, if you are pl=
anning on specifying more than just management, also functionality.

Management (1) and the data models to go with it standardize a way for oper=
ators to manage the CPE and devices behind it. I think that at some point t=
his has been considered, at least how to separate users that want to manage=
 this them selves. The table on page 20 (2) specifies a attribute named "Up=
gradesManaged" that an CWMP ACS should relate to, that states if the ACS sh=
ould manage firmware or not. For our part, notification of firmware upgrade=
s will in the future be done through walled garden.

A complicating factor of firmware management is that physical interoperabil=
ity is at best intricate; we spend a great deal of time making this work fo=
r every single release. In some countries this is at such a level that comp=
etition within the CPE marked is non existent. This is a thing to keep in m=
ind.

At the same time I think most ISPs are becoming aware of the fact that the =
CPE terminating the access line is becoming an important part of their netw=
ork, since they are now delivering services deep within the customer's netw=
ork (IPTV, SIP, alarms, power readings, backup, you name it). In other word=
s I suspect that the box in charge of terminating the line for the customer=
 in a much larger degree will have to be owned and/or managed by the ISP. T=
his in turn leads to reports, documents, standards that define management o=
f devices in the home network as seen from the Broadband Forum.

I'm not saying that retail products (CPE), but I think we must consider the=
 implications of such a standard and be careful :-) For a layer 3 device de=
ep within the network, these kind of considerations does not apply. Still f=
irmware upgrade (or what I would like to call firmware change, since it is =
not always per se an 'UPgrade') is a tedious process, many considerations f=
or how this can be done as safe as possible is outlined in the different Br=
oadband Forum documents.

The telco-deployed gateways are managed as CPE, using the TR stuff for
firmware upgrades, but for the retail product about all we can do is advise
customers to periodically apply upgrades the hard way. In a perfect world, I
suppose there would be a single web site where both customers and support
people could go to see what the latest revision is for every gateway, but
this isn't such a world.

Another option is to declare it a BCP to have an easy "check for upgrade"
button on the first page of the gateway's GUI or something similar.

Firmware update methods were a topic of discussion when a few parties met to
discuss the problem space in Philadelphia months ago.  One of the issues is
related to why web browsers and operating systems now perform automatic
checks for updates.  Today, this generally does not happen, though in some
cases it can be prompted by the user savvy enough to visit the local device
management web page periodically.  In any case, there are regular security
fixes which are made available and without recommendations on how updates
should occur (user intervention, automatically downloaded, automatically
applied, etc.) many devices leave this to the users -- and probably 90%+ of
the user base will never upgrade the firmware on the device.

said, that all the thinking being done here is for a midterm future, not 
for the current market, which means that technologies that now are not 
mainstream, it may very well be in a 5-8 years timeframe. Think ahead.

And I agree that the discussion about jumboframes should be taken out 
from this homegate list to other more relevant wg.

+1 to that.

This is precisely what I was getting at.  It seems bad hygiene to expect
that a user will update their software automatically - it just does not
happen in reality.  The box runs, so why update it?  As OS vendors have
learned, you have to automate this for the user.

So something along the lines of:
A software (firmware) update function must be present, which periodically
and without user intervention, checks for and downloads firmware updates.
Optionally, a software installation function may apply these
automatically-downloaded firmware updates on the device on either (1) an
immediate basis or (2) a pre-scheduled basis.  All of the above settings
should be pre-configured and defaulted on/active by the device maker, and
users should have the ability to modify such settings.  [We may also need to
provide some text about a security mechanism to verify that the firmware
updates is properly signed/trust-verified.]

Kirk, ALL,=20

One of the major differences between "retail" CPE, and "Service Provider
routers" layer 2 related components in the service provider network.
Examples of this include CMTS/DSLAM, SoftSwitch.   However, layer 3
components such as IMS, and emerging categories like self-healing
support systems could be considered common.

It would be useful to allow the CPE to register & receive notifications
of network components that go through SW upgrades.

A software framework which embodies this, while allowing differences in
protocol implementation (e.g., TR--069, v.s. HTTP/SOAP/XML, HNAP, SNMP,
CLI, WEB, etc..) would be ideal from our perspective.   Having an XML
schema to represent the data model would serve as a good point of
reference.  There is also a need to register network elements for
logging, self-healing, and corrective action to be taken based on events
happening in the network or on the device (including possible SW
upgrades).

Note that the ability to extend the framework by allowing registration
of other devices in the internal network, would improve the ability to
automate problem resolution in home networking.

All,

I'd be willing to concede on the issue of automatic updates so long as
we are clear what this means in spec terms and that we are willing to
justify the time necessary to do it properly. Also, what problem are we
trying to solve with automatic software updates that directly affect the
other features we want? Is this "core" functionality, or it is something
else?=20
=20
For example, if the text tells you "how" the automatic updates could be
accomplished, without mandating that the router must be automatically
updated (vs. manual, etc.) and then render the actual mechanisms
optional, I think we'd have a fair compromise. From a vendor
perspective, this would mean that if the feature is implemented in the
router, it must follow the spec text. With regards to the details within
the "how" I think we have to clarify that there may be differences in a
"standalone" router vs. one which has an embedded cable modem or DSL
modem.  Where a DSL or cable modem may be embedded, I suggest we
reference the architecture-dependent parts back into those standard
bodies (this applies to a host of other features that will come up) as
they already cover these issues within these respective specs quite
well. In cable, we rely upon the eDOCSIS model wherever a CM is embedded
with another device (like a router) and the DOCSIS software download
framework for software download requirements.  =20
=20
By assuming that we have either a standalone device (the "generic" case)
or an embedded device with some form of modem (DSL, cable) we can
bi-ficate into handling the issues separately. For the generic
standalone case, we could strip down many of the functions and
behaviors, or rely on an existing framework spec.
=20
Operationally, software download is non-trivial and as has been
mentioned, without QA testing to make sure the code behaves
appropriately you might get "newer" code with more wrong than right with
it. Given the razor thin margins common to these platforms, what gets
added is usually features that were advertised, but were missing from
the original builds or major/minor bug fixes to existing functionality
that have been noticed after the first release. It would not be
unreasonable to expect that very few software updates actually come out
for a given product these days (from a business perspective, it's a big
cost sink to a vendor and is only done when it must be). One very good
reason for keeping the feature list tight is that this will control code
bloat and invariably code defects that prompt one to update the software
on the router in the first place.=20
=20
Some of the rather icky issues we would confront for the generic
standalone case include one that may not be so obvious: If the CM or DSL
modem is updating and reboots, can the background data transfer for the
standalone router's own software download, if happening concurrently, be
affected? In this scenario, perhaps the user has a very low upper
transfer rate for software downloads set (or it could even be the
default configuration) which may be at a transfer rate too low for the
modem to defer it's own reboot for, or no one bothered to check the
activity before forcing the reboot.=20
=20
What affect might an interrupted software download have on the
standalone router (it probably shouldn't matter what caused it)? Will
the transfer need to resume where it left off when the modem comes back
up and bridging proceeds, or just start over again? Are there retries,
bakeoffs or ICMP messages that the router needs to pay attention to with
regards to software download? Does the router need to check activity on
it's own interfaces or system counters before initiating the either a
download or rebooting with a new software image? Can you safely
determine when to reboot the device without suddenly being obligated to
add counter objects to monitor system/interface statistics? If it really
is a user-managed gateway, we remove many of these concerns, though if
they are "fully" automatic in the download, they are probably going to
have to do some checking to decide when or even if to automatically
reboot to use that new software image.
=20
In the case of a cable modem, we have access to the CM's counters and we
can sweep through devices of the same sysDesc for hardware/software rev
and determine the correct image to download, then verify when activity
is low enough that we can safely reboot the CM. Every DOCSIS CM can
support two software loads in flash in case the new load fails for one
reason or another.
=20
There are some other oddities you have to plod through, like multi-level
software upgrades and whether you support something other than one big
binary blob coming down the pipe. You may find you have old software
versions out there that a vendor wants to update from 2.0 to 4.1a.
However, to get from 2.0 to 4.1a, you may have to upgrade to a
break-point version like 3.1 (say if the new software changes the
organization or format of the flash device, etc). =20

These are just examples of some of the issues we will need to confront.
Best to go in with eyes wide open.

The fact of the matter is that the telco home gateways already support
automated firmware updates, with the appropriate failsafes and recovery
mechanisms to deal with the odd case of a failed update. So the question
is
whether the retail home gateways should strive for a similar level of
functionality. It seems to me that automated firmware updates are the
only
way to ensure that updates will ever be applied in most cases, as the
typical user probably never uses the management GUI and would therefore
never be able to force an update via manual means.

While there's some element of risk in any action, the risk of updating
firmware in the process that's well-specified for authentication and
recovery is less than the risk of never updating and therefore exposing
the
Internet to the consequences of bad code.

In order for this to work, you would have to have basic connectivity
without the firmware upgrade.  Something like ROMMON on Cisco routers
would do the trick: a very basic OS with just the capability of
contacting the server and downloading upgrades, and then boot the main
OS, which would be upgraded.  Then you would also need to have enough
regression done on updates to be sure that there won't be a deployment
problem - something like the regression scripts that Debian runs for
upgrades may do the trick.  The question is: with the razor-thin margins
on this device, could vendors afford to provide this capability?

No, it shouldn't be. Updates often cause just as many problems as they
solve. Having a home gateway that worked just fine break because someone
decided to push out an update is completely unacceptable.=20
Especially because update procedures are often lengthy, may render the
device unusable if interrupted, and if the device ends up in a non-
working state there is no recovery because there is no internet
connection.

I have to very strongly object to the above.

Your assumption is that upgrading is necessary, even if the user  
doesn't want to. That is a flawed assumption unless you're speaking  
from personal involvement in creating firmware that is so bad that  
this is true.

Updates frequently introduce new bugs, so the hesitation on many  
user's part to upgrade is often quite reasonable.

The service interruption involved may be unacceptable on its own.

I don't think vendors want to include double the flash memory for this  
purpose, either.

A much better way to upgrade would be to download the new firmware to  
a local system which also has a copy of the currently running  
firmware, and then perform the update over the local network when the  
user chooses to do so.

I think that's overstated somewhat. There are times when pushing out
fixes is the right thing. I guess security patches would be the
prime example there.

Fair point. I think everyone seems to agree that if anything is
done here, that the user must be able to override whatever is
the default setting.

Right. But the problem there is that most users just aren't aware
of any of this and so never upgrade/patch.

I guess the question for me is whether its better to have a default
of automatically updating or a default where the user chooses when
to update. I don't claim to know the right answer, but I do think
that savvy users are a minority that are more likely to want to
control when updates happen, and that the majority of users never
do anything and hence never get anything except automatic updates.

To me that implies that the better default is to automatically
update. However, that's really just a hunch - does anyone have
any data on this that they could share?

The OS's I use do not do this by default, and I only know of one which  
does. That is different from
informing the user that upgrades are available or needed.

There is to me another issue here. Most home users, in my experience,  
know (or remember) nothing of the various GUI
interfaces for their devices. A SOHO network might easily have a cable  
modem, a wireless router, and a wireline switch from different  
vendors, all with completely different GUI's for fairly similar  
functions. Very few users will deal with this unless forced to. That  
is one advantage an OS vendor has - the power to put a dialog box in  
front  of the user.

Would it be in scope to describe some sort of ZeroConf type mechanism  
for doing this ? My printer complains when it needs ink, why shouldn't  
my router be able to complain when it needs an update ?

Regards
Marshall

Just a quick chime in on this thread guys.  There is a remote management
standard, TR-069, for all broadband types (currently minus the Cable
forums though, but is Wimax, DSL, Femto, IPTV, VoIP, Fiber and their
respective forums, etc) that answers most if not all of these questions
for you that have been brought up in this thread, or at least the
vendors of those solutions do.

With many TR-069 solutions you can do hands free provisioning (remote)
and simple things such as scheduled remote upgrades via a simple unified
interface for remote management of all those above mentioned device
types.  This allows firmware revs to be signed off on by you and rolled
out across all the supported devices.  This way bugs are introduced etc.
You could also automatically roll your users back to your "supported"
firmware if you know bugs are in newer versions (or older) that you
don't want to support, etc.

You can also provide that unified interface to your customer in a portal
of types and let them upgrade or manage their own CPE.

I could go on and try to touch on each point raised in the thread, but
it is a long thread.

All,
=20
Keep in mind there is a difference between a general purpose OS and an embe=
dded system when it comes to frequency of updates. Active ongoing developme=

comes from the reference design vendor, not the router manufacturers themse=
lves. It's been my experience residential focused embedded systems do not (=
and indeed for the price, should not)  do not get a lot of software updates=
 after the fact. A typical number might be one or two updates a year and on=
ly as a consequence of some major new feature addition and/or major bug fix=
es. Collapsing minor bug fixes into a one or twice a year schedule for up t=
o three years is common. The vendors usually move on to the next platform a=
nd the focus is there for software development.=20

The OS's I use do not do this by default, and I only know of one which=20
does. That is different from

There is to me another issue here. Most home users, in my experience,=20

modem, a wireless router, and a wireline switch from different=20

Cable has it's own method defined in the DOCSIS software download framework=
. As mentioned before, this group has two rather nice, already complete spe=
cs to work from. I'd suggest in the case of an embedded routing device with=
 a DSL CM, point to TR069 and for an embedded router with a cable modem, po=
int into the CableLabs specs. We can do a requirements extract on both spec=
s to come up with what might be a dramatically stripped down list.=20

Subject: Re: [homegate] Management of the Home Gateway



Just a quick chime in on this thread guys.  There is a remote management
standard, TR-069, for all broadband types (currently minus the Cable
forums though, but is Wimax, DSL, Femto, IPTV, VoIP, Fiber and their
respective forums, etc) that answers most if not all of these questions
for you that have been brought up in this thread, or at least the
vendors of those solutions do.

With many TR-069 solutions you can do hands free provisioning (remote)
and simple things such as scheduled remote upgrades via a simple unified
interface for remote management of all those above mentioned device
types.  This allows firmware revs to be signed off on by you and rolled
out across all the supported devices.  This way bugs are introduced etc.
You could also automatically roll your users back to your "supported"
firmware if you know bugs are in newer versions (or older) that you
don't want to support, etc.

You can also provide that unified interface to your customer in a portal
of types and let them upgrade or manage their own CPE.

I could go on and try to touch on each point raised in the thread, but
it is a long thread.

Gentlemen,

What is the scope of HomeGate?

>From the discussion around this topic I get the impression the scope
would only be covering retail devices that don't embed DSL, Cable or
other access technology modems?

>From a DSL home gateway perspective we so see a significant number of
deployments where the service provider managed home gateway is combined
with external modems/NTs.  Also in this case the home gateway is key is
triple play service delivery (multicast/QoS/VoIP) and is partly managed
by the operator (network settings, QoS, VoIP...) using a remote
management protocol and partly by the end-user (NAT portmaps...) using a
device embedded GUI.

Aspects like remote firmware upgrade are today covered in BBF TR-69 and
CableLabs specs.=20

Does HomeGate intend to define requirements beyond the existing
standards for operator managed gateways (with or without embedded
modem)?  Does it intend to only define firmware upgrade requirements for
retail home routers?

For other aspects such as multicast, Jumbo frames, DNSSEC would HomeGate
define requirements for service provider managed gateways or only retail
home routers?

Thanks,
Dirk

Cable has it's own method defined in the DOCSIS software download
framework. As mentioned before, this group has two rather nice, already
complete specs to work from. I'd suggest in the case of an embedded
routing device with a DSL CM, point to TR069 and for an embedded router
with a cable modem, point into the CableLabs specs. We can do a
requirements extract on both specs to come up with what might be a
dramatically stripped down list.=20

Subject: Re: [homegate] Management of the Home Gateway



Just a quick chime in on this thread guys.  There is a remote management
standard, TR-069, for all broadband types (currently minus the Cable
forums though, but is Wimax, DSL, Femto, IPTV, VoIP, Fiber and their
respective forums, etc) that answers most if not all of these questions
for you that have been brought up in this thread, or at least the
vendors of those solutions do.

With many TR-069 solutions you can do hands free provisioning (remote)
and simple things such as scheduled remote upgrades via a simple unified
interface for remote management of all those above mentioned device
types.  This allows firmware revs to be signed off on by you and rolled
out across all the supported devices.  This way bugs are introduced etc.
You could also automatically roll your users back to your "supported"
firmware if you know bugs are in newer versions (or older) that you
don't want to support, etc.

You can also provide that unified interface to your customer in a portal
of types and let them upgrade or manage their own CPE.

I could go on and try to touch on each point raised in the thread, but
it is a long thread.

I do understand that if you depend on the user to initiate any action,  
very little will happen. Still not sure why this is important enough  
to incur the risks. Are there often CPE updates that are critical?  
Doesn't seem that way to me.

Which brings up the question: what exactly are we trying to solve on  
this list? If it's devices delivered to users as part of the service,  
then obviously any and all issues can be negotiated between the vendor  
and the service provider so there isn't much need to discuss them in  
the IETF. (Although it would probably be helpful to come up with a  
more standardized way to interact on the LAN side.)

The case where the CPE is obtained by the user separately from the  
service is much more complex and more inline with the IETF's mission  
and I don't think it's even possible to come up with a working  
scenario for pushing out updates there.

In my experience, code often has bugs in it, sometimes critical ones, and
they need to be patched. Perhaps a larger issue is that IETF protocols tend
to evolve, so it's good for devices to catch up with the current standards. 

This is all practical nuts and bolts stuff, not advanced networking theory
and dissertation material.

I don't know that the scope has been defined yet, actually. We're just
having a discussion around what the major issues with home gateways and the
stability/functionality of IP networks might be. It seems that there's a
desire to specify some BCPs more than anything, not invent new protocols.

I don't see any desire to limit the scope to CPE, the retail stuff has
perhaps greater needs since it's not tended by TR69 and has interoperability
issues of its own. I think of HOMEGATE as a supplement to TR69 and DLNA, not
a replacement (except where the other guys screwed up.)

Gentlemen,

What is the scope of HomeGate?

>From the discussion around this topic I get the impression the scope
would only be covering retail devices that don't embed DSL, Cable or
other access technology modems?

>From a DSL home gateway perspective we so see a significant number of
deployments where the service provider managed home gateway is combined
with external modems/NTs.  Also in this case the home gateway is key is
triple play service delivery (multicast/QoS/VoIP) and is partly managed
by the operator (network settings, QoS, VoIP...) using a remote
management protocol and partly by the end-user (NAT portmaps...) using a
device embedded GUI.

Aspects like remote firmware upgrade are today covered in BBF TR-69 and
CableLabs specs. 

Does HomeGate intend to define requirements beyond the existing
standards for operator managed gateways (with or without embedded
modem)?  Does it intend to only define firmware upgrade requirements for
retail home routers?

For other aspects such as multicast, Jumbo frames, DNSSEC would HomeGate
define requirements for service provider managed gateways or only retail
home routers?

Thanks,
Dirk

Cable has it's own method defined in the DOCSIS software download
framework. As mentioned before, this group has two rather nice, already
complete specs to work from. I'd suggest in the case of an embedded
routing device with a DSL CM, point to TR069 and for an embedded router
with a cable modem, point into the CableLabs specs. We can do a
requirements extract on both specs to come up with what might be a
dramatically stripped down list.

Just a quick chime in on this thread guys.  There is a remote management
standard, TR-069, for all broadband types (currently minus the Cable
forums though, but is Wimax, DSL, Femto, IPTV, VoIP, Fiber and their
respective forums, etc) that answers most if not all of these questions
for you that have been brought up in this thread, or at least the
vendors of those solutions do.

With many TR-069 solutions you can do hands free provisioning (remote)
and simple things such as scheduled remote upgrades via a simple unified
interface for remote management of all those above mentioned device
types.  This allows firmware revs to be signed off on by you and rolled
out across all the supported devices.  This way bugs are introduced etc.
You could also automatically roll your users back to your "supported"
firmware if you know bugs are in newer versions (or older) that you
don't want to support, etc.

You can also provide that unified interface to your customer in a portal
of types and let them upgrade or manage their own CPE.

I could go on and try to touch on each point raised in the thread, but
it is a long thread.

For me it sounds like we have to find a trade-off between security (or othe=
r) problems caused by buggy updates and the problem caused by not updated d=
evices... it is not easy to decide which way is right and depends perhaps o=
n the use case. If the gateway includes the modem I would support automatic=
 updates, but if users have to have  a separate modem, I am not sure ...

Service Providers are interested in open standards too since they reduce co=
sts. So it is very interesting for a service provider to have an IETF speci=
fied home gateway.

>=20

Depends on what most users have at home... Do they buy their own gateway or=
 do they only have the one that came with the service? I think, it is 50-50=
. Some users are happy the provider's box, other buy their own and place it=
 behind the provider's box, using the ISP's box only as modem. I think, we =
should address both as far as possible.

Hi,

I would agree on this approach. I think that we need to first look what oth=
ers have done and what is missing. I am not sure if markets would agree on =
some certain device management scheme as there are many already existing, b=
ut I think that IETf could recommend certain approaches. Other issue would =
be looking what other SDOs have defined and if it is something that has bee=
n really deployed and if it overlaps homegate way and how. I have been work=
ing with DLNA and UPnP, so I know that area somewhat. DLNA as an organizati=
on is focused on creating interoperability with certification test tool tha=
n creating new protocols. DLNA has not really defined any home gateways, bu=
t its guidelines does address full protocol stack, so there are guidelines =
for IETF protocols too.

 UPnP forum does have its gateway committee that has defined Internet gatew=
ay speciifications and works for the next version. UPnP IGD is not a holist=
ic definition what is a gateway and how it should work, but it provides API=
s to mostly IETF or de facto standards on layer 2 and layer 3 (possibly eve=
n to application level) protocols. What definetely lacks from that specific=
ation family is how to implement IETF protocols in detail. For instance, de=
tails and options for DNS, DHCP etc are not defined. Current UPnP gateway w=
ork for now expands from NAT traversal, IPv6 firewall control to security s=
olution, so from UPnP perspective this home gateway would touch only partia=
lly the area and vice versa. Also, how many other groups in IETF actually d=
efine stuff that is really part of this home gateway initiative.

Maybe we should take following topics into discussion and eventually to the=
 charter:
* Model what is a home gateway, what it does, does it have variations?
* Device management aspects, and if the solution defined would have real ch=
ance to be widely deployed
* BCPs for IETF protocols in gateways
* what APIs and protocol definitions other SDOs have done, missing things, =
whats wrong, would these SDOs take input. I am not sure if the list broadba=
nd forum, HGI, OSGI, UPnP, cablelabs

best regards,
    Mika

Can we start with a definition of a homegate-compliant home gateway  
that avoids lots of the issues we're discussing here, like who gets to  
own it?

Here's my shot at it (in very rough): that device or part of a device  
which is between the user's connection to the wider Internet and his  
local network infrastructure, and provides a means of reaching or of  
being reached from the Internet on a typically exclusive basis.

Now it's easy to define where are work is guided: toward the LAN  
side.  We can say things like, "We want conformance in the gateway  
part, but you can do what you like to your modem part" or whatever  
satisfies both camps.  It means we can easily distinguish a DSL  
"Router" from a cable modem, since the former incorporates a home  
gateway and the latter clearly doesn't.  And we can now leave  
everybody in the broadband SIGs of the world to continue doing  
horrible things to their infrastructure just so long as we get ECN and  
working multicast.  Consumers can now be left with a to-the-door  
connection and buy their own gateway, or can be given one and can  
understand that using a second gateway is bad without the necessary  
bridging treatment (or whatever).

Cheers,
Sabahattin

Approx once a year pr HW device. As mentioned elsewhere on this list there =
is sometimes security holes which needs to be patched.  Most often though t=
here is compatibility, stability and evovling standards which are the reaso=
ns for upgrading. ADSL is still evolving.  A device we are upgrading this s=
ummer will have approx 20% increase in dsl sync rate, 20% longer reach and =
reduce resync problems to nearly zero for long reach lines.  The increased =
dsl performance is not a poor implementation originaly, but the adsl standa=
rd has continiualy refined over the years. =20

There are also cases where major operating system vendors introduce bugs in=
 their network stack where the CPE vendors have to introduce bug compatebil=
ity.

I also expect introduction of features like IPv6 and vdsl2 will need a lot =
of upgrades since we all are learning there.

Regarding second gateways, the problem is that there's a trust boundary
between that which the service provider manages and that which the home
user manages - and neither can completely trust the other...

Consider the following scenario:

A service provider provides a gateway integrated into a cable modem that
the service providers manages (say following the CableLabs eRouter
specification) to protect the service provider network from malicious
users.  However, this gateway can operate in routing mode or bridging
mode, but the end customer has absolutely no way of detecting whether
the gateway is a router or a bridge.

Now the customer has sensitive documents (like tax records) on a local
network drive, and tries to access them across the network.  Since the
customer has no way of knowing whether the eRouter is in router or
bridge mode, he doesn't know whether copies of the sensitive documents
are being sent across the service provider's network.  To protect
himself, he installs a second gateway behind the first gateway - a
gateway that he manages - and can be assured that routed traffic (like
the sensitive documents) is not being copied on the service provider
network.

All of a sudden, you have the possibility of two gateway/routers on the
same network - one behind the other - at the trust boundary.

Subject: [homegate] What's a "Home Gateway"?

Can we start with a definition of a homegate-compliant home gateway that
avoids lots of the issues we're discussing here, like who gets to own
it?

Here's my shot at it (in very rough): that device or part of a device
which is between the user's connection to the wider Internet and his
local network infrastructure, and provides a means of reaching or of
being reached from the Internet on a typically exclusive basis.

Now it's easy to define where are work is guided: toward the LAN side.
We can say things like, "We want conformance in the gateway part, but
you can do what you like to your modem part" or whatever satisfies both
camps.  It means we can easily distinguish a DSL "Router" from a cable
modem, since the former incorporates a home gateway and the latter
clearly doesn't.  And we can now leave everybody in the broadband SIGs
of the world to continue doing horrible things to their infrastructure
just so long as we get ECN and working multicast.  Consumers can now be
left with a to-the-door connection and buy their own gateway, or can be
given one and can understand that using a second gateway is bad without
the necessary bridging treatment (or whatever).

Cheers,
Sabahattin

Seems that we need to require that any and all boxes provided by  
service providers be able to function in a modem-only mode, where the  
user provides the actual home gateway themselves.

If you want to enforce the "one router in the home" rule, then you need
to explicitly tell the service provider that when there is a router
provided by the user, then the box provided by the service provider MUST
be operating in bridge mode.  I'm not sure that all service providers
that deploy eRouters will trust that the users have configured their
home router properly...

We choose to standardise the gateway (LAN) part, and make it a  
requirement that the part be distinct, whether physically or by design  
of the software inside a single box.  That's all.  We can disclaim  
responsibility for ISP management of the non-gateway bits.  In fact,  
consumers can grow used to purchasing two-part appliances whose one  
half is on their side and whose other isn't.  We recognise the two  
parts independently, treat them independently.  We can now set more  
reasonable goals, and establish principles and policies applicable to  
consumer-focused applications, including that of for instance being  
conservative about updates, if we feel that way, without regard to ISP  
needs.  Simple as.

Or we can go v6/e6 and ethernet, and suddenly we don't need gateways  
anymore because the ISP rules all. :-)  It occurs to me that all our  
glorious work will come to nothing if this happens, and that it will  
all seem a bit overmuch in light of such an obvious inevitability.

Cheers,
Sabahattin

And that would exactly be my point - we have to design protocols in IETF
and come up with a set of requirements for home gateways that does not
preclude the possibility of having two or more cascaded routers in the
home.

What problem are we trying to avoid here? Some customers already run
multiple cascading routers in the home on their own.

What if the ISP router in the home supports IPv4 and IPv6 routing, but
the consumer router supports IPv4 routing and IPv6 bridging? It seems
like there could be a number of corner cases in which two routers may
make sense.

If you want to enforce the "one router in the home" rule, then you need
to explicitly tell the service provider that when there is a router
provided by the user, then the box provided by the service provider MUST
be operating in bridge mode.  I'm not sure that all service providers
that deploy eRouters will trust that the users have configured their
home router properly...

Which is one among many reasons we should be designing for multiple  
subnets on a single home network, instead of assuming the network is a  
single sea of L2 connectivity.

The trouble with that is that if the ISP-provided gateway performs NAT  
this prevents the customer gateway from doing some useful things, such  
as opening up incoming ports or running 6to4.

It would be a completely legitimate choice to put the customer gateway  
in bridge mode. With IPv6, you could also have multiple cascading  
routers, for instance, one for an office network and one for visitors  
or some such. With IPv4 this is harder because the additional NAT  
layers can create problems.

But the point is that ISPs provide cheap gateways, if the user chooses  
to invest in a better one it would be rather annyoing that this  
doesn't improve things because the limitations of the cheap gateway  
don't go away.

For instance, I recently debugged a family member's network that had a
DSL NAT box with a DNS proxy and a gateway address of 192.168.1.1.  A
Wireless Access Point was put behind it, and also had a gateway address
of 192.168.1.1, but had no DNS proxy.  Since the name-server address was
set to 192.168.1.1 by the DNS proxy, hosts behind both NAT boxes
attempted to use 192.168.1.1 as the name server, and all DNS lookups
went to the box without the DNS proxy, and failed.  Therefore, they were
unable to use DNS and therefore, could not browse the web.  I solved the
problem by assigning a different address to the inner NAT than the outer
NAT - and all works well.  Regarding other problems with additional NAT
layers, we could design protocols that would allow the NATs to
communicate to each other better to resolve difficulties.

In other words, the problems can be solved without automatically turning
one box into a bridge.
