Hello everyone.

The latest version of the DLEP draft -
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-manet-dlep/
was posted on May 2. As of this writing, there has been no discussion  
on the mailing list about the 01 version of the draft. Taking the  
optimistic viewpoint that there are no objections, I'll ask the group  
- Can we proceed to WGLC on this document?

Regards,
Stan

Stan and all,
Sorry for the delay in reviewing the draft.  I don't think it is ready for =
WGLC because it doesn't seem complete enough to build interoperable impleme=
ntations, and at least for the use cases that I'm thinking of applying it t=
o (existing users of RFC 4938, and multi-channel DAMA-based systems), the f=
eatures don't seem complete enough.

I've previously raised a few initial questions that I think would be worthw=
hile to try to discuss and come to consensus on.  First, what would be the =
overall document set necessary for vendors to build interoperable implement=
ations?  Since this document considers transport out of scope, it seems at =
a minimum that this document plus some kind of transport profile (e.g. "DLE=
P over UDP") would be the minimum.  I also think that it will be the case t=
hat future radio systems will need to extend DLEP; I would like to see the =
document describe how DLEP is expected to be extended, and explicitly consi=
der extensibility.=20

Second, besides TLV specifications, the document defines a basic point-to-p=
oint session protocol, but it presently is not specified fully (e.g. no sta=
te machine, not much detail in how exceptions are handled).  This sort of p=
rotocol must have been done many times before in the IETF (e.g. service dis=
covery, neighbor discovery, DHCP, key management protocols) so I wonder whe=
ther the working group should try to define a new one from scratch, or try =
to find one that is close in functionality and well specified, and either r=
un over that protocol or copy that protocol over as much as possible.

It is not clear to me how it relates to RFC 4938/5578.  I had thought that =
DLEP was supposed to be a standards-track protocol to replace the (informat=
ional) PPPoE-based protocol, but credit-based flow control is left out of t=
his specification. =20

The draft is missing a terminology session.  The terms "first-speaker" and =
"passive-listener" could probably be replaced by "initiator" and "responder=
" for consistency with other IETF terminology.

The assumptions section should try to clarify some more details about scope=
 of applicability, such as any restrictions on how routers and radios are i=
nterconnected that might require loop detection mechanisms, whether DLEP re=
quires both sides (local and remote) to have active sessions (or can be app=
lied only on one side of the link), whether DLEP requires that no reorderin=
g occur between router and radio, and whether multicast is handled.

It wasn't clear to me why sequence number 0 needs to be invalid.  It wasn't=
 clear whether the protocol requires (enforces) that sequence numbers be mo=
notonically increasing.

The alignment of the TLVs seems to be on byte boundaries, leading to some o=
dd-length TLVs.  Many recent protocols have tried to align on larger bounda=
ries for implementation convenience, and was wondering what drove you away =
from the use of any padding (perhaps it was the concept of detached session=
s that you introduced later, where over-the-air bandwidth needs to be conse=
rved).

The Router Id and Client Id seem to be used instead as session ids; should =
they be renamed?  If the intent is really to be router Ids, 4 bytes is not =
large enough for all routing protocols, so I might suggest 6 bytes, which w=
ould allow for use of mac addresses.

It wasn't clear why there is a requirement for major and minor version numb=
ers; I would suggest to remove this unless requirements are clear.  Also, i=
t seems like Version Sub-TLV ought to be mandatory in session initiation me=
ssages.

It wasn't clear why the detached peer discovery use case needed to be suppo=
rted, and if so, whether it places additional requirements on the protocol =
since the link between router and radio is no longer guaranteed to be highl=
y available.  Suggest to delete this option unless it has clear requirement=
s.

Is specific ordering of TLVs enforced or not?  Also, it is probably suffici=
ent to list the sub-TLVs when messages are specified (e.g. section 9.1) rat=
her than enumerate all of their fields. =20

Should the sequence number in Peer Offer message echo the Discovery sequenc=
e number, so that the Offer is associated with the right Discovery?

It wasn't clear how the Peer Update procedure would work if the clients ign=
ored the message because they didn't care about the layer 3 addresses.  The=
 router may conclude that the session has failed if it kept retrying the Up=
date that was being ignored at the modem.

There seems to be normative elements of procedure (message sequences) in an=
 Appendix A; suggest to move these to the main body of the specification.  =
In general, other protocol specifications tend to define message formats an=
d elements of procedure separately, but this draft seems to spread the elem=
ents of procedure between the message formats and Appendix A sections.

- Tom

That is due to using RFC 5444, rather than being introduced by DLEP.
Even if TLV value fields are multiples of 2, 4 or whatever bytes,
the actual start of the value field won't be so constrained.

5444 was created for MANETs, which are most commonly wireless
networks where bandwidth matters. There was creative tension, let's
say, between people who regarded (and may still regard) it as being
able to be made even more efficient, and people who were prepared
to nake things simpler (for more than one definition of simpler)
at the cost of some bytes. (There was also a third axis of
flexibility.) The final result is a compromise in all these regards.

Thanks for the explanation; I didn't participate in developing 5444 and was=
n't aware of that history (and didn't intend to open up any old debates wit=
h my question).

Hi MANET,

Just to let you know that Stewart and I are doing a bit of load balancing. We
are moving this WG to my care.

Looking forward to working with you.

Hi,
How is the TTL value of a RREQ in AODV decided and what decides the
threshold value beyond which a RREQ is broadcast over the complete
network?
Regards,
Rahul Goel

*Hi Stan,*

I have some comments, as below to some sections until 7.4 , I read so far

Abdussalam
------------------------

In Abstract
+++++++++++++
> in order to make forwarding decisions
(recommend replace : decisions, to: and routing decisions)
neighbour discover usually are updated at the routing,

recommend to specify options: In mobile or fixed environments,


manual configurations or the  inference of state through routing or
transport protocols does not allow the router to make the best decisions.

(not clear because I think routers only decisions, they process the adaptive
routing algorithm; maybe change to: accurate adaptive decisions)


A bidirectional, event-driven communication channel between the router and
the modem is necessary. (the reasons are not clear, why necessary this
method only)
recommend change to: necessary for correct adaptive routing...because of
unpredicted events
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In Introduction:

>DLEP utilizes a session paradigm between the modem device and its

>associated router. If multiple modem devices are attached to a

>router, a separate DLEP session MUST exist for each modem. If a modem

>device supports multiple connections to a router (via multiple

>interfaces), or supports connections to multiple routers, a separate
>DLEP session MUST exist for each connection.

if there is only one channel DLEP for each peer why do we need two ID
(client and router) as in 7.1 (not sure!)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

*In Assumption*

++++++++++++

*should* be the MAC address of the next-hop router or end-

device, and not the MAC address of any of the intervening modem

devices.  (SHOULD)



 Some issues are not specified as the link assumptions and link's
connectivity, as was mentioned in introduction different events of link, or
environment, network size, etc.



In 7.1

++++++++++

"Peer Discovery" and "Peer Offer" messages described *below*. (please
specify where, page or section).



While reading through the messages format and packet it was difficult to
relate them to their functionality, within the big picture,



+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thanking you

Abdussalam

Hello,

I've been on the list for a while and mostly tried to learn from what is be=
ing said but, based on increasing experience with military radios, I wonder=
: is there time to ask for an EFT Sub-TLV for DLEP? This question has been =
bouncing around MIT/LL and associated technology development labs. I apolog=
ize in advance if my query is in poor form.

My reasoning:
1. DLEP aims to make standard radio to router interfaces (R2RI), a primary =
value proposition for multi-radio platforms. Even in single-radio platforms=
, it is the interface standard that would permit component and vendor repla=
cement or upgrade.
2. 7.11 Relative Link Quality value is under-specified and cannot be tested=
 except for nonzero value.
3. 7.9 Latency Sub-TLV is too short to bear deep queuing times.
4. 7.9 does not mandate the latency computation.
5. The EFT method is effective at answering all of these problems, and has =
been tested by members of this list.


Thank you for your consideration,

A Riley Eller

Hello everyone.

The latest version of the DLEP draft -

Thank you for the consideration.

Expected Forwarding Time (EFT)[1] represents what I believe to be the state=
 of the art in generating a meaningful cost function for links. The value r=
epresents "typical latency between the arrival of a given packet at the tra=
nsmitting device and that packet's reception at the other end of the link" =
and so it combines transmission time, idle time, waiting time, freezing tim=
e, and queuing time to the degree that those values are meaningful for a gi=
ven medium. By encompassing the entire packet lifetime, it describes the in=
teraction of transmission rate, packet delivery ratio (in acknowledged, ret=
ransmitting links), contention in the local area, router load, and potentia=
lly traffic priority. The last of those depends upon whether the metric is =
computed distinctly for different traffic classes, of course.

It is not panacea, but it is a discrete unit of measure that aggregates wel=
l across multiple media. This strength is in opposition to the inutility to=
 software developers of dimensionless RLQ. I have been using a scheme of my=
 own design (which amounts to nothing more than an integer approximation of=
 air time) to good effect for six years, but EFT is better. EFT represents =
a milestone in both its efficacy and its comprehensibility.

Regards,

Riley

May I ask authors of WG documents to submit? I-D cut-off 
is July 11th. It would be nice if we have something on 
the table to read and discuss. If not, IMHO we don't need 
to meet f2f to make excuses. Nor discuss security and mibs 
for parked (dead?) protocols.

Riley,

Thank you for the explanation. Just playing devil's advocate here -  
couldn't EFT be expressed as a better, more accurate definition of  
latency?

Stan

Stan,

"You can call me anything, just don't call me late for dinner." -- my pops

I'm not much of a semanticist, so I'll defer to the group's ideas about nam=
ing, but in the spirit of advocacy: "Latency" is easy to understand and has=
 a lot of background context that EFT does not share. The latter is, at bes=
t, comprehensible only if you sound it out. That suggests to me that a read=
er would pay better attention to the more specific term and not be tempted =
to "plug in" an existing one- or two-way link latency metric. So by virtue =
of being precise, my hunch is that EFT is a better name.

I must admit that my scientific training is weak in temporal matters, so I =
cannot be an arbiter of whether a "queuing delay" and "transmission delay" =
should be expressed in the same terms as a "congestion back-off timer". It =
seems to me, though, that latency should be used in tightly-coupled process=
es (like phase-lock loops latent by the distance over the speed of light) a=
nd duration should be used in loosely-coupled processes like timer events. =
So in some senses, I might say, forwarding time is latencies plus durations=
.

In the pursuit of standardization, also, EFT is a formulation that might be=
 better specified rather than left to implementers. In the exchange of mess=
ages across a component architecture, I believe that Latency might lose suf=
ficient context to be mistaken for one- or two-way link latency or any simi=
lar term.

My preference sort would be:
1) Specify EFT instead of Latency in 7.9
2) Specify EFT as 7.x in addition to 7.9
3) Specify EFT as the MUST for 7.9
4) Suggest EFT as a MAY for 7.9

Do those ideas make sense?


Again thank you for the consideration,

Riley

At first glance its seems like some sort of stochastic measure of =
expected latency.=20
Is that essential what it is?
Can you sketch out the TLV content desires and post it?

Riley,

:-) Your father & mine share the same sayings...

Your point makes sense. I'll try to lift the ETF description from the  
reference and include it in the next rev of the DLEP document. If you  
have some suggested text to describe EFT, that would be great.

Regards,
Stan

Dennis Edwards, the co-author of the Air Time metric I mentioned, reminds m=
e that all we're talking about is using the best available mechanism to mea=
sure latency. So with his admonishment in mind, here's my attempt at a draf=
t text. Stan will surely note that it resembles the Latency Sub-TLV, althou=
gh I took the liberty of pushing toward a microsecond based representation.=
 Millisecond accuracy is technically sufficient, but I believe that the add=
itional bits can be used to improve mobility in CSMA-style media. Please fe=
el free to replace (us) with (ms) if the group prefers, and in that case sh=
rink the encoding to 2 octets.


7.X  Expected Forwarding Time (EFT) Sub-TLV

   The EFT Sub-TLV is used in Neighbor Up, Neighbor Update, Link=20
   Characteristics Request, and Link Characteristics ACK messages to=20
   indicate the expected forwarding time on the link, or in the case=20
   of the Link Characteristics Request, to indicate the maximum=20
   packet holding time (e.g. a should-not-exeed value) on the link.=20

   The EFT Sub-TLV contains the following fields:

   0                   1                   2                   3
   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

  |Expected Forwarding Time (us)                  |
  +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   TLV Type              -  TBD

   TLV Flags             -  0x10, Bit 3 (thasvalue) is set, all other
                            bits are not used and MUST be set to '0'.

   Length                -  2

   Expected Forwarding   -  the transmission delay that a packet
   Time                     encounters as it is transmitted over the
                            link. In Neighbor Up, Neighbor Update,=20
                            and Link Characteristics ACK, this value
                            is reported in expected delay, in=20
                            microseconds. The calculation of=20
                            forwarding time is modem-device dependent,=20
                            but SHOULD represent the sum of all=20
                            latencies due to queuing, transmission,
                            retransmission, idle, and freezing times.
                            For example, the queuing time may be a=20
                            running average calculated from the=20
                            internal queuing and the freezing time may
                            be a running average of media acquisition
                            time. If the modem device cannot calculate=20
                            expected forwarding time it MUST be=20
                            reported as 0. In the Link Characteristics=20
                            Request Message, this value represents the=20
                            maximum acceptance holding time, in=20
                            microseconds, expected on the link.

At first glance its seems like some sort of stochastic measure of expected =
latency.=20
Is that essential what it is?
Can you sketch out the TLV content desires and post it?
