Hi Edward, Lamberto and all,
Sorry for the later reply. And no, when apply HSMP LSP to VPLS, the path 
from leaf PE to root PE is exactly the shortest path. mLDP leaf will send 
mapping message to root node, choosing the path with routing table, and 
this path is the shortest path from leaf to root.

We have updated the draft with more clarification of the use cases, and 
added new use case of VPLS application.
You can get the new draft from link: 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jin-jounay-mpls-mldp-hsmp-03

Thank you.
Lizhong

&gt; &gt;&gt; Hi Edward,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; Thank you for the comments. I add l2vpn maillist in cc list.
I agree with<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; the application you proposed, and in order to improve the
scalability of<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; VPLS, P2MP PW multiplexed to HSMP LSP could be used for VPLS.
Actually<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; this is a good application case for P2MP PW with reverse
path (section<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; 4.4, draft-ietf-pwe3-p2mp-pw-00). We can add some description
about this<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; use case.<br>

&gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; Hi Lizhong,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; I think one possible application for HSMP LSPs is to
reduce the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; overall broadcast/multicast utilization on a VPLS. In
current VPLS<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; implementations with a full mesh of P2P LSPs between
PEs, broadcast,<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; multicast and unknown traffic are not efficiently propagated
on the<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; physical links between PEs and Ps.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; In the VPLS implementation scenario with HSMP LSPs,
each PE signals<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; a HSMP LSP with itself as a root to all other PEs in
the VPLS.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; Thereafter, all broadcast/multicast/unknown traffic
from this PE<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; will use this HSMP LSP. Unicast traffic from a particular
PE (e.g.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; PE1) to another PE (e.g. PE2) will be sent from leaf
to root using<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; the HSMP LSP where PE2 is the root.<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; This simplifies the VPLS implementation by:<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; - &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Reducing traffic
utilization from broadcast, multicast<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; and unknown traffic<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; - &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Reducing the total
number of LSPs maintained by each PE<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; (i.e. instead of requiring a full mesh of LSPs, now
only require one<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; HSMP LSP per PE).<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; This is similar to the idea expressed in &nbsp;draft-key-l2vpn-etree-<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; frwk-03.txt (in a more general sense).<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; &gt; What do you think? Would HSMP LSP be suitable for this?<br>

   This document describes a solution for overcoming a subset of the
   limitations of existing VPLS multicast solutions. It describes
   procedures for VPLS multicast that utilize multicast trees in the
   sevice provider (SP) network.  One such multicast tree can be shared
   between multiple VPLS instances.  Procedures by which a single
   multicast tree in the SP network can be used to carry traffic
   belonging only to a specified set of one or more IP multicast streams
   from one or more VPLSes are also described.

Hi Eric,

Thank you for the comments. Sorry for the delay.
A revised draft that addresses your comments has been posted:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-mcast-09.txt


Also please see below:

I have added a reference to RFC 4541 for IGMP snooping and clarified that
PIM snooping procedures require future work.

Please see response to your comment above - PIM snooping procedures 
require further work.

That is not the intent. I think the text is clear as it stands.

The applicability is limited to IGMP and PIM as in RFC 4601.

The text has been clarified to limit support to P2MP RSVP-TE or P2MP LDP.

What you call Model 4 is not supported by this specification.

Done.

The text has been clarified to restrict the scope to P2MP RSVP-TE or P2MP 
LDP LSPs.

That is what is being referred to.

This is no different than sending data on a new P-Tunnel. I don't think 
any further clarification is necessary.

Section 9.2.1 describes this along with a normative reference to RSVP-OBB.

Clarified this with following text:

"The egress PE MUST NOT advertise IMPLICIT NULL or EXPLICIT NULL for that 
tree once its known to the egress PE that the tree is bound to one or more VPLSes."

This just works if the LSP signaling is received after the BGP A-D route 
that carries the accompanying PMSI Tunnel attribute. If the LSP signaling 
is received earlier then section 9.2.1 has details.

Its useful to refer to RC5332 regarding the encaps.

Deleted the paragaraph here.

In this case its good to repeat it for context.

Fixed as stated in the response above.

Added text to fix this.

This is quite explicit as the text in the section applies only 
when matching snooped state exists.

Added text to cover this.

Clarified the text.

Done.

>   If the destination MAC address of a VPLS packet received by a PE from

No. Replaced with "Selective tree MUST be used"

> It is not completely clear what the intention is for a packet that has an

   Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a Layer 2 Virtual Private
   Network (VPN) that gives its customers the appearance that their
   sites are connected via a Local Area Network (LAN).  It is often
   required for the Service Provider (SP) to give the customer redundant
   connectivity to some sites, often called &quot;multi-homing&quot;.  This=
 memo
   shows how BGP-based multi-homing can be offered in the context of LDP
   and BGP VPLS solutions.

   This document provides a framework and service level requirements for
   Virtual Private Multicast Service (VPMS).  VPMS is defined as a Layer
   2 VPN service that provides point-to-multipoint connectivity for a
   variety of Layer 2 link layers across an IP or MPLS-enabled PSN.
   This document outlines architectural service models of VPMS and
   states generic and high level requirements.  This is intended to aid
   in developing protocols and mechanisms to support VPMS.

                          Samer Salam

   The scalability of H-VPLS with Ethernet access network can be
   improved by incorporating Provider Backbone Bridge functionality in
   VPLS access. Provider Backbone Bridging has been standardized as
   IEEE 802.1ah-2008, and aims to improve the scalability of MAC
   addresses and service instances in Provider Ethernet networks. This
   document describes different interoperability scenarios where
   Provider Backbone Bridge functionality is used in H-VPLS with
   Ethernet or MPLS access network to attain better scalability in
   terms of number of customer MAC addresses and number of service
   instances. The document also describes the scenarios and the
   mechanisms for incorporating Provider Backbone Bridge functionality
   within H-VPLS with existing Ethernet access and interoperability
   among them. Furthermore, the document discusses the migration
   mechanisms and scenarios by which Provider Backbone Bridge
   functionality can be incorporated into H-VPLS with existing MPLS
   access.

Rahul,

Thanks for making the changes.  I think there is only one issue remaining.

Section 11.3 says:

   When the multicast signaling protocol between PE state when PE-CE
   protocol and CE is IGMP, then snooping and associated procedures are
   defined in [RFC 4541].When the multicast signaling protocol between PE
   and CE is PIM, the procedures in RFC4541 are not sufficient to determine
   the snooped state. The additional details required to determine the
   snooped state when PE-CE protocol is PIM are for further study.

I think this should say "among the CEs" rather than "between PE and CE", and
should refer to the "CE-CE protocol" rather than PE-CE protocol.

Even so, this is buried rather deep in the document.  Would you consider
putting something like the following at the end of the "Introduction"
section:

   The procedures of this document require the PEs to "snoop" the CE-CE
   multicast signaling.  When the multicast signaling protocol IGMP, the
   snooping and associated procedures are defined in [RFC 4541].  When the
   multicast signaling protocol is PIM the, procedures in RFC4541 are not
   sufficient to determine the snooped state. The additional details
   required to determine the snooped state for PIM are for further study.

Eric

P.S.: You need to run idnits.

Hi everyone,

First off an apology that I didn't manage to get the minutes out from the
Prague IETF out before the deadline.  I've included them below in this
message...

Secondly a promise from Nabil and I that we'll get the minutes out on time
after Quebec City. This time I won't rush off on holiday immediately after
IETF and forget all about the minutes ;-)

And thirdly a call for volunteers to take minutes or jabber scribe in Quebe=
c
City.  There are a few gaps from our minutes in Prague, as we only had one
minute taker.  At a minimum I'd like to see one minute taker and one jabber
scribe so we can use the jabber transcript to fill in any gaps in the
minutes.

Thanks!

Giles

L2VPN Minutes - IETF 80 (Prague)


1)    Working Group Status Update - Giles

a)    2 RFCs published nice the last meeting, RFC 6074 and 6136

There is another in the queue, draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-bridge-interop-06 on
which there are a few comments from the mailing list, to be addressed and
will be fixed in the next week.

b)    ARP mediation draft - Giles asks Himanshu tasked to finish this draft=
;
agreed

c)    Nabil: OAM VPWS. ATM interworking is not seem as significant, only
vendor response was for FRF5. Next Steps - plan to wrap up the document as
soon as the vendor survey is completed.

d)    Giles - remaining draft updates.
            Multicast - VPLS, looking for more debate around this draft
            VPMS, looking for a republish from Yuji.
            VMPS, will cover multi-source but not multi-coverage

e)    multihoming02 - Wim at the mic saying it is ready for last call.

Giles - Please can we have more comments on existing drafts.


2)    Re-Charter of L2VPN - Giles

a)    Who has read it? A show of 6 or so hands of people who have read it.
Giles encouraging people to read the re-charter.=A0

b)    puts charter up on the screen and has fun with text sizing, then does
a quick overview as to the nature of L2VPN charter.=A0

c)    E-Tree competing approaches and needs to be resolved. E-VPN, same, a
few drafts so a need to resolve this.

d)    Are the milestones realistic? Need for everyone to think on this and
comment back to the group. Milestones for new work, and also for
old/existing work.

Stewart Bryant arrives.

Giles - Again comments requested, deletions comments are as welcome as
additions.

Giles - Anyone interested in MIB work is welcome also.

Giles - Work being done in the data-center area by L2VPN

Mic comments:

Luca - are we looking at this in both L2VPN and TRILL? Exactly what area is
L2 looking at?

Nabil - we need to ensure that work that gets picked up is real L2VPN work,
this can include data-center to data-center, but not a flat L2 network, VLA=
N
etc.

Rahul, couple of things to add. He likes the charter, the milestones are
missing VPMS auto discovery there is a draft for this he will resurrect.

Stewart, anyone doing MIBs? Call from Giles again for MIB people. Stewart a=
s
a concern as to are there enough people prepared to do the work? Do we take
things off the charter if people are not interested in the work.

Sharam from Broadcom - Is VLAN in the charter or not? Stewart reply, if it
is a L2VPN then it is in.

Giles - can we also discuss E-Tree?

Luca - Are we going back to look at all the ways and details of doing
Ethernet frames (IEEE) over L2?=A0

Ali - If IEEE has done the work we should not duplicate, we should
interoperate.=A0

Unknown speaker (Broadcom) - QCN question, will L2VPN do interworking with
this?=20

Giles - PWE drafts have this in the control word so do we need this again a=
s
it is already done? Is GRE based VPN in the scope, is there any interest?

Giles (continuing with the charter)

New E-VPN and E-Tree in as items 7 and 10. Not seeing this group doing work
on TP or static VPLS

Milestones, some are done and the bad news is many have not.

Mic comments:

Stewart - do we have doc authors for July docs?


3)    VPLS analysis - Jie Dong

Overview of the ways to deploy VPLS and select the correct mechanism.

Mic Comments:

Ali - what is the point of this draft? Concern over the lack of detail of
doing a draft with less details, if you need the details then you still nee=
d
to read the drafts=8A

Unknown speaker - Similar comment

Luca - no draft needed on having a comparison between methods. How about a
draft on what operators thing is missing and or need to be improved.

Sasha - agrees with Luca, and perhaps an operators survey would be helpful
instead.

Unknown speaker (China Telecom) - does not see that there is enough detail
and gave some examples.

Nabil - anyone read the draft? Looks like it is going to the mailing list.
Market has asked for 2 solutions, they have been delivered, we don't track
the solutions in this group.


4)    VPLS IS-IS - Xiaohu Xu

Overview of the notion of adding IS-IS extension to support lightweight VPL=
S
without other protocols. (BGP/LDP etc)

Mic comments:

Ali - is this learning Mac addresses against IP addresses? If this is pure
data centre then should this be in TRILL.

Giles - is this a VPN?

Ali - existing solution can be used.

Ali - how is multicast done?

Xia - use ingress multicast

Ali - not efficient

Sasha - is this MPLS over IP or GRE

Unknown speaker - saying this is already done with TRILL and L2, this draft
needs to define exactly what space this is for.

Giles - in summary can we define the problem space and perhaps take this to
the mailing list?


5)    LDP Extensions for Optimized MAC Address Withdrawal in VPLS - Ran Che=
n

Mic comments:

Ali - not sure what the problem actually is,

Giles -=A0can we see what in 4762 is broken via the mailing list.


6)    BGP MPLS Based Ethernet VPN - Rahul Aggarwal

Mic comments:

Unknown speaker - Interesting work

Giles - sounds like Rahul is ready for final comments on version 2.


7)    PBB E-VPN Ali Sajassi

Mic comments:

Luca - just to clarify the purpose.

Florin - comment on the TRILL part, TRILL interworking will be challenging.

Ali - TRILL interop is TBD and we need to work out how.


8)    VPLS Active/Active Multi-homing - Clarence Filsfils

Mic comments:

Unknown speaker - Very useful draft, but can we break the text in the draft
in 2, can we look at E-VPN and then the changes to VPLS signalling.

Clarence - only draft 1 so we can make these types of changes

Wim - there are 2 potential solutions, can we combine this one with PBB vpn
one, but perhaps analysis needed.

Rahul - thinks we need to combine what we mean by VPLS in this draft, and i=
s
concerned that this draft might change the data plane

Clarence - disagrees

Lucy - wonders how we will do the signaling in the control plane

Clarence - early draft

Robert Raszuk - likes the draft

Unknown Speaker - question on how would we signal the MHID label under the
PW label.

Rahul - still thinks this changes the data plane in VPLS, and thinks that w=
e
can use existing VPLS technology rather than changing the data plane.

Nabil - goes to mailing list to continue discussion. VPLS bridge model seem=
s
to be changed here so this needs to be discussed.

Unknown speaker (Ericsson) - wanted to clarify the use of the labels 30 and
31 in the slides

Clarence - they are just examples, not proposed reserved labels.


9)    Extension to LDP-VPLS for E-Tree using Two PW - Daniel Cohn

Mic comments:

Florin - root and leaf PEs need to co-ordinate

Unknown speaker - Comment this breaks the bridge model

Sharam - backwards compatibility, legacy limitations if root and leaf not
support on legacy.

Unknown speaker - this could be done with a existing PW label instead

Luca - thinks the idea is possible, but doing this with interface parameter=
s
would make this possible.


10)    VPLS PE model for E-Tree Support - Yuanlong Jiang

Mic comments:

Ali - are you suggesting mapping all C-VLAN in to a S-VLAN? If so this will
complicate this on bridging side of things. Once it is received you need to
double tag and or the VPLS instance?  Currently we map PW into the Bridge
ID, not the tag as well.

Unknown speaker - If the CE is tagged twice or QinQ, are we adding a tag of
modifying a tag?

Yuanlong - we could do both.


11)    Requirement and Framework of VPN-Oriented Cloud Services - Ning So

Mic comments:

Ali - are we saying that not all the requirements in this draft are for
L2VPN? Things like disk space are not part of this working group.

Lucy - On slide 3 are these functions done at operator layer of customer
level

Ning - can be done on both, depends on the tools made available by the
operator.

Himanshu - the dynamic creation of VPN via an operator is very interesting
and should be considered.

Giles - this if is an ops work then the requirements might want to be feed
back to the L2 group via the Ops WG.


12)    Wrap up from Giles and Nabil.=A0

Please can we see active mailing lists and the completion of some of the
drafts.

Hi everyone,

We've reworked the proposed charter, hopefully for the final time.

The changes from the last version we sent out are:
1) we removed the reference to control plane distribution of MAC addresses
and IP to MAC bindings for E-VPN (since this starts to define solutions
rather than requirements).
2) we pushed most of the milestones back and broke out the E-Tree milestone=
s
into separate lines.

Please do take a look and let us know if you have any major objections.  If
there are no such objections then Stewart will take the charter to the IESG
in Quebec City.  If, however there are objections then we'll debate them at
the WG meeting next week.

Nabil and Giles

------

The L2VPN working group is responsible for defining and specifying a
limited number of solutions for supporting provider-provisioned Layer-2
Virtual Private Networks (L2VPNs). It will also address requirements driven
by cloud computing services and data centers as they apply to Layer-2
VPN services.

Layer-2 VPNs defined by L2VPN operate over pseudowires (PWs) as
defined by the PWE3 WG or over MPLS PSN tunnels. A L2VPN emulates a
"native" service over a PSN that is adequately faithful to, but may not
be entirely indistinguishable from the native service itself. Further,
following in the "edge-to-edge" nature of the  service, the L2VPN WG will
not define any mechanisms which exert control over the underlying PSN.
When necessary it may, however, recommend or require the use of existing
PSN QoS and path control mechanisms between the PEs which provide the
L2VPN connectivity.

Layer-2 VPNs comprise the following:

1. Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) -- A Layer-2 service that emulates
a switched Ethernet (V)LAN across an MPLS PSN.

2. Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) -- A Layer-2 service that
provides point-to-point connectivity for a variety of link layers,
including Frame Relay, ATM, Ethernet, PPP, etc., across an MPLS PSN.

3. Virtual Private Multicast Service (VPMS) -- A Layer-2 service that
provides point-to-multipoint connectivity for a variety of link
layers across an MPLS PSN.

4. IP-only L2VPN =AD An IP-only service over an MPLS PSN.  The WG will
address two specific types of IP-only L2VPN:

a) Point-to-point Layer-2 VPN.  This service is similar to VPWS, but also
supports heterogenous Attachment Circuits at either end of a single
point-to-point service.

b) Multipoint-to-multipoint Layer-2 VPN.  This service is similar to VPLS,
but learns IP and MAC address bindings from ARPs and broadcast/multicast
IP packets.

5. Ethernet VPN (E-VPN) - A Layer-2 service that emulates an Ethernet
(V)LAN across an MPLS PSN. E-VPN supports load-sharing across
multiple connections from a Layer-2 site to an L2VPN service. E-VPN is
primarily targeted to support large-scale L2VPNs with resiliency
requirements not satisfied by other L2VPN solutions.

6. E-Tree =AD a Layer-2 service defined by the MEF, which provides
connectivity between one or more =B3root=B2 nodes and one or more
=B3leaf=B2 nodes, with the restriction that leaves may only communicate
with roots (and not with each other).

L2VPNs will make use of existing IETF specified mechanisms unless there
are technical reasons why the existing mechanisms are insufficient or
unnecessary.

The L2VPN WG is responsible for specification of the discovery and
membership of PEs participating in a Layer-2 VPN as well as the
membership of CE devices for a specific instance of an L2VPN.

The L2VPN WG will provide extensions of existing protocols that will be
discussed in protocol-specific WGs. In particular, the L2VPN WG
may define extensions to pseudowire management mechanisms for VPLS.
Those extensions will be reviewed by the PWE3 WG to ensure they are
aligned with the overall design/architecture of PWE3.

The L2VPN WG will not define new encapsulations, control, or resiliency
mechanisms specifically related to pseudowires. Furthermore, when the
L2VPN solution is based on PWs, the L2VPN WG will not define protocol
inter-working between an L2VPN and native service Layer-2 OAM or
resiliency mechanisms. The L2VPN WG may define how to operate native
service-layer control, OAM or resiliency mechanisms on top of an L2VPN.
In addition, it may define native data plane and/or control plane
interworking between an L2VPN and an associated native Layer-2 service.

The L2VPN WG scope includes the following:

1. Discovery of PEs participating in a Layer-2 VPN and the associated
topology required for connectivity of the VPLS, VPWS, VPMS or E-VPN
service.

2. Signaling of information related to the discovery and membership of
PEs within a L2VPN. These procedures must use PWE3 control and
management procedures, or define requirements for extensions of PWE3
protocols to suit the needs of an L2VPN, when the L2VPN operates over
PWs. Once those requirements have been reviewed by the L2VPN WG, they
should be provided to the PWE3 WG to derive solutions.

3. MIBs for Layer-2 VPN solutions.

4. Specification of requirements, framework and solutions that
facilitate Operations Administration and Management (OAM) of any type of
L2VPN.

5. Mechanisms to permit optimization of multicast data traffic within
an L2VPN.

6. If transport does not involve PWs, mechanisms that support
load-balancing/multipathing between PEs interconnecting a Layer-2
service using an L2VPN across the MPLS PSN.

7. requirements for the multi-homing of CEs to several VPLS or
E-VPN PEs, inclusive of active/backup and active/active (load-sharing)
configurations. Based on these requirements define VPLS or E-VPN control
plane solutions for achieving fast convergence after failure of an active
path in the PSN or on the AC side.

8. Enhancements to increase the scalability of the Control Plane and
Data Plane of L2VPN PE nodes, and of core nodes that provide transport
services for L2VPN.

9. Requirements and solutions for Auto-Discovery and Signaling of
Inter-AS L2VPNs, in addition to Inter-AS solutions for multicast-optimized
L2VPNs.

10. Requirements and solutions for supporting "E-Tree" services using
VPLS.=20

11. Extensions to L2VPN protocols and RFCs necessary to create an MPLS
Transport Profile (MPLS-TP). The work on the MPLS TP will be coordinated
between four primary working groups (MPLS, PWE3, L2VPN and CCAMP) that are
chartered to do MPLS TP work.
