A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The Meta-Policy Information Base (M-PIB)
	Author(s)	: A. Polyrakis, R. Boutaba
	Filename	: draft-polyrakis-mpib-00.txt
	Pages		: 31
	Date		: 29-Mar-02
	
This document introduces the concept of COPS-PR meta-policies and 
defines the Meta-Policy Information Base.  
The meta-policy PIB does not introduce a new policing area. On the 
contrary, it defines some provisioning classes that can be used by 
all other PIBs, in order to add meta-policing functionality into 
them. The meta-policy PIB, like every PIB, stores policing 
information that controls some policing mechanisms of the device. 
However, unlike other PIBs, the policing mechanism controlled by the 
meta-policy PRCs is the PIB itself. The data maintained by these 
PRCs implement policies that control other policies, this is why 
they are called meta-policies. 
Meta-policies is an attempt to push intelligence towards the COPS-PR 
PEPs and overcome the rigidity of their PIBs. Through meta-policies, 
more policing information and functionality can be pushed towards 
the PEP, less interaction with the PDP is necessary and less network 
and PDP resources are consumed. The PEP is more independent and it 
can bear longer PDP absences.

Hi Sven,

the comment is a bit late, but I've been offline for a while. Nevertheless:

> * New requirements
> - in section MUST support priority
>   The priority of a flow is essentially decoupled from
>   its QoS requirements. Therefore the protocol MUST
>   support priority. As a consequence, it MUST support
>   preemption of traffic flows in case of congestion or
>   failure. A preemption action MAY trigger an attempt
>   to resetup the request by means of another instance
>   of an NSIS signaling protocol.

Could you provide some clearer argumentation why
preemption is a requirement? I'd classify preemption
as a "nice to have" feature, no more than a "MAY" 
requirement. I'd especially insist on preemption being 
completely decoupled from QoS and any other service
related signalling. 
I.e. if it is not supported by an opperator, no 
parameters or messages related to preemption are
to be transported. 

I'd like to ask other representatives of operators for
their view.

Regards, Rüdiger

Hello:

I have a question regarding one of the requirements:

5.3.3 Possibility for automatic release of resources after failure

   When the QoS Initiator goes down, the resources it requested should
   be released, since they will no longer be necessary.

This does not seem to me to be a protocol requirement nor a framework
requirement, but rather an implementation requirement. 

Does this matter?

Thanks,
Gary

To me this is part of the semantics of the protocol. My requirement is that
the protocol support the following two behaviours:

1) When the QOS Initiator goes down, the resources it requested will be
released
2) When the QOS Initiator goes down, the resources it requested will not be
released

The reason for supporting behaviour #2 is the case where an entity in the
network proxy signals on behalf of a large number of customers. We want the
ability for the corresponding connections to stay up should a controller
fail. For policy reasons we may want to require that behaviour #1 be
enforced for some customers. Obviously if a customer is paying for a
connection that would want #1 to be enforced as well. 

Cheers,
Marco

Subject:  [NSIS] On the definition of QoS flow and aggregate flow.

In the NSIS requirement draft, I have some points for discussion on the
definition of a "flow" from the presective of NSIS, and also on the
definition of "aggregate flow".

I feel these need to be defined more fully in terms of QoS.

It is defined in the requirements draft, that:

A flow is a traffic stream between two endpoints for which "a specific level
of QoS is provided". 

My question is how to characterize such a flow in terms of quantitative QoS
parameters.

A set of QoS parameters can be standardized for a flow. These parameters
could be:

Maximum delay
Minimum throughput
Maximum response time (assuming buffering)
Maximum jitter
.......

These parameters should then be mapped to a specific "priority value", i.e.
a single parameter.

The parameter can relate directly to ABR, CBR, UBR, ......... types of flow.
 

A 6-tuple (src. addr, dest. addr., src. port nbr., dest. port nbr, protoID,
Priority) should characterize a "flow" as far as the requirements for NSIS
working group.

Having a single priority value would make it much easier to quantify QoS to
define a flow, as opposed to a whole set of parameters like delay,
throughput, jitter ............

A flow aggregate can be defined as a set of flows, where each flow has the
same QoS priority.

Thus, a coarse grain, single QoS priority for "flow" characterization can
help to readily gather flows with the same priority value into a set to form
an aggregate flow set.

Comments and feedback please.........

Sharif.

Marco:

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for
finite life times. 

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics 
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms
at a given node?

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

   Define "down". Does a network partition count?

A flow is a packet stream between endpoints, with a specified level of QoS.

In my last e-mail, I had suggested using priority, as the level of QoS for
the given flow stream.

I had also suggested using a 6-tuple (src addr, dst addr, src prt, dst prt,
protoid, priority) to characterize flow for NSIS purposes.

For a flow to be a member of an aggregate flow set, its priority must be the
same as all the others, of course, while src addr, dst addr may be
different.

An important consideration is how to buffer the flows for an aggregate flow
set, so they all can have the same forwarding treatment based on their
common priority value.

How to manage the buffers............

And how to schedule packets in the aggregate flow set for transmission.

I believe these are important issues, I wanted to bring them up for
discussion, suggesting text should be added to the requirements document.

Sharif.

Sharif:

 I think you are proposing a new QoS model, based upon "priority".
It is my understanding that the common view of "priority" from a QoS
perspective is that it can always be translated to other QoS performance
parameters: more bandwidth, lower delay, less loss, lower delay jitter.
Priority queuing is just one mechanism for achieving these QoS levels.

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; A flow is a packet stream between endpoints, =
with a specified </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; level of QoS.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; In my last e-mail, I had suggested using =
priority, as the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; level of QoS for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the given flow stream.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; I had also suggested using a 6-tuple (src addr, =
dst addr, src </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; prt, dst prt,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; protoid, priority) to characterize flow for =
NSIS purposes.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; For a flow to be a member of an aggregate flow =
set, its </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; priority must be the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; same as all the others, of course, while src =
addr, dst addr may be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; different.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; An important consideration is how to buffer the =
flows for an </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; aggregate flow</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; set, so they all can have the same forwarding =

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; How to manage the buffers............</FONT>

Gary,

I assume that based based on this requirement, there needs to be a =
mechanism in the protocol to determine if the QoS Initiator is actually =
down. So to come back to your original question, I do think that this is =
actually a protocol requirement and not merely an implementation issue.

Gary:
 
            Priority is not a "new QoS model". It is already defined in the
IETF. For example Differentiated Services can map from service parameters
such as delay, throughput, etc. to a number of discrete codepoints, known as
Differentiated Services CodePoints (DSCPs). Thus, the idea of translating
from service specific  QoS parameters to priority values exists already.
 
I was suggesting the re-use of this concept to characterize a flow from the
NSIS prespective.
 
Sharif.

Sharif: 
 I think you are proposing a new QoS model, based upon "priority". 
It is my understanding that the common view of "priority" from a QoS 
perspective is that it can always be translated to other QoS performance 
parameters: more bandwidth, lower delay, less loss, lower delay jitter. 
Priority queuing is just one mechanism for achieving these QoS levels.

Regardless, a flow is what QoS is applied to, therefore it cannot be
defined as having a "specified level of QoS" without circularity.

I would be very interested to read that the RFC that defines a mapping

priority queueing.

Marc:
 
Ok, but I think that this is a specific interpretation of the requirement
that is not captured in the wording.
What you are referring to is more along the lines of protocol support for
fault recovery. May be useful
(if the initiator is down, who are the protocol peers? if the initiator is
in the path, how can the protocol 
be used? etc.)
 
Anyway, thanks.
Gary

Gary,
 
I assume that based based on this requirement, there needs to be a mechanism
in the protocol to determine if the QoS Initiator is actually down. So to
come back to your original question, I do think that this is actually a
protocol requirement and not merely an implementation issue.

Marco: 

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for 
finite life times. 

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics 
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms 
at a given node? 

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol 
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could 
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

Gary,
 
To answer your question I must make assumptions about the solution. For
example:
 
1) In the case of a soft-state solution such as RSVP, Case #1 is explicityly
supported. The refresh message acts as a "keep alive". The semantics of the
protocol is that a reservation timeouts in a short duration if not
refreshed. The refreshments are per flow. Behaviour #2 is not supported. If
it were supported exclusively then refresh would not exist.
 
2) In contrast ATM UNI does not do per flow/connection refresh. My best
recollection is as follows. If the signaling channel is detected as having
gone down (via some sort of keep alive mechanism) then all associated
connections are released. Because ATM "refreshes" the signaling channel and
not the flows/connections, for any individual connection the protocol will
reach a steady state in which no additional messages are sent. While this
may be seen as implicit implementation of behaviour #1 from the overall
layered perspective, from the UNI state machine perspective behaviour #2 is
being supported. 
 
Not sure if this fully answers your question....
 
Marco

Marco: 

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for 
finite life times. 

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics 
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms 
at a given node? 

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol 
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could 
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

>>"Define "down". "

Good question. Please note that I did not define the original requirement
which used the term "down". I took the meaning to be that if the actual box
running the software or the software itself stops working then the QOS
Initiator is "down". A controller would likely detect this indirectly. For
instance a keep alive message is not recieved for a period of time. 

>>"Does a network partition count?"

If a network partition prevents the initiator from sending signaling
messaging to the controller then a network partition does count.

Yes that's it, the protocol must support options for fault recovery
including the maintenance and the release of existing flows.

Ok, but I think that this is a specific interpretation of the requirement
that is not captured in the wording.
What you are referring to is more along the lines of protocol support for
fault recovery. May be useful
(if the initiator is down, who are the protocol peers? if the initiator is
in the path, how can the protocol 
be used? etc.)
 
Anyway, thanks.

Gary,
 
I assume that based based on this requirement, there needs to be a mechanism
in the protocol to determine if the QoS Initiator is actually down. So to
come back to your original question, I do think that this is actually a
protocol requirement and not merely an implementation issue.

Marco: 

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for 
finite life times. 

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics 
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms 
at a given node? 

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol 
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could 
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

=============================

Based on interest from folks engaged in manet, mobileip, and seamoby
working groups, an unofficial meeting was held to discuss issues
surrounding the triggers at layer 2 to communicate information to
upper layers in a hosts protocol stack.  Two drafts, one discussing
the issues (draft-manyfolks-l2-mobilereq-01.txt) and another proposing
an API (draft-guri-seamoby-paging-trigger-00.txt) had been previously
submitted.  The objective of the meeting was to discover if the scope
should be more broad than the drafts proposed.  This was accomplished
by a somewhat unstructured discussion that touched on several topics
including what information to express, how it is delivered, and some
possible next steps.  The conversation and some perceived conclusions
are summarized below.

WHAT TO EXPRESS

Not a new problem, past experience likely useful:

The need for communication about L2 state to L3 is not new.  Routers have
been handling it, largely with proprietary means for years.  Routers are in
fact the canonical customers for this function; they by definition perform
their principal L3 function based on L2 state info.  Routing folks have
learned a lot about how links lie about their state (e.g., links that fail
half-duplex).

In fact, router manufacturers may have insight as to which metrics would be
of interest or possibly how to extend or abstract them if they are willing
to share the information.  Getting input from people familiar with routing
would be valuable.

Small set of common functions seen as useful:

The most common need expressed for information to be revealed was a
link up/down indicator.  This might be extended to be a table
containing reachability to multiple access points for technologies
where that is possible.  (There already exists an appropriate SNMP
message but it appears to be largely unused.)

Interaction with MobileIP:

In mobileIP on a wireless link, an L3 handover may, but does not always,
occur when the mobile node moves to a new access point.  Link layer
protocols provide more accurate, and possibly timelier, reachability
information than L3 'hello' protocols.  There is great benefit if a
mobileIP L3 can learn that a handover is imminent, rather than waiting
until after the old link is gone.  Early warning may allow mobileIP to
optimize the L3 hand-off process in a number of ways, such as triggering an
L3 early hand-off or moving context to the new router.

Discussion about architectural principles and amount of revealed information:

It was suggested that it might be valuable to reveal *any* information that
might be of interest to any part of the host, e.g., bit error rate, or link
bandwidth.  For example, a video codec (e.g., MPEG-4) might behave
differently if it was aware of the bit error rate of the wireless link.
This was widely thought to be a bad idea as it suggests an architecture
which is not general - leading to applications that are too tightly bound to
specific link types or depend on the assumption that the 'difficult' link
is the one nearest the end host.  The Internet layer, as the 'waist in the
protocol hourglass' insulates the application from the link layer.  The
question of what information ought to be passed up from L3 is separate from
what info L3 could usefully get from L2, and should be considered
separately.  Only a very limited, general set of parameters would be
appropriate above L3 and defining appropriate parameters based on link
characteristics is a very difficult task.  Even adding a metric such as
signal strength is difficult when link technologies are heterogeneous.

Some other caveats that were suggested: Triggers should only enable
performance enhancements and not be used for correct protocol
operation.  There's value in finding implicit rather than explicit
mechanisms.  Again: the focus should be firmly on L2/L3 communication,
rather than enabling applications (or, presumably, transport) to
interact directly with L2.  Apps can fight with L3 if it's done wrong.

Management applications considered a special case:

In the context of the above discussion, management applications were seen
as a special case that might require greater access to link information
than would normally be made available to normal applications (or even
protocol stack internals).  This is because the application is
intentionally associated with the management of a specific L2 technology.
For example, 802.11 cards typically come with a management application that
reveals information about the card status, link status, and access
point(s).  This information is necessary to ensure the correct functioning
of the card and should not be considered an Internet network application.

HOW IS L2 INFORMATION DELIVERED

Options for how to implement L2/3 communication include an API, a MIB, or a
protocol.  Most of the applications discussed above do not require
communication across the wire and so a protocol does not seem to be
justified or appropriate.  It's unclear whether an API or MIB is more
appropriate.  MIBs were considered by some as somewhat 'heavyweight'
because accessing local information typically requires SNMP to localhost
and implies ASN.1 marshaling that is not needed in this situation.  This
issue is particularly important to small memory and power-limited wireless
devices.

Most participants agreed that the difficult task that needs to be done is to
determine the right set of metrics to abstract and capture them in a common
location.  It was widely recognized that the question of MIB or API is
really secondary to the question of what information should be passed
between L2 and L3.  In the IETF, that process is frequently captured in a
MIB. However, since the issue is really a matter of internal communication
within a host, it may not be necessary to standardize or even specify the
format or mechanism which is used to communicate across the L2/L3 boundary.

SOME NEXT STEPS

Since the IETF doesn't develop link technologies, one output of an IETF
effort might include an informational RFC on which information to
export/reveal.  This document will likely be of interest to other standards
bodies who standardize link technologies.  (Some of these ideas have
already been taken to IEEE 802.11.  The IEEE is also working on related
issues in the context of OAM.) This might be considered a natural extension
of the PILC working group document "Advice to Subnet Designers."

The IESG will provide advice as to the next process steps.  They could
include doing the work in PILC, possibly requiring rechartering,
holding a BoF, creating a new working group, or possibly just an
individual RFC submission.  For the moment, the discussion should take
place on the PILC mail list.  Subscription instructions are available
through the working group charter page at
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/pilc-charter.html.  Should the work
take place in a seperate working group, naturally a new mailing list
will be formed.

Postscript

In the wireless directorate meeting (of chairs of wireless-related working
groups, it was suggested that besides advising link designers, we should
also consider an advisory document to upper layers on how to handle L2
information.

Hi Marco, all,

I think this touches on the resiliency issue we discussed in Minneapolis.
When the data plane and control plane are separate then it is a question of
fate sharing. Should or shouldn't the data path be torn down when a control
plane entity fails. I certainly wouldn't limit this to the QI only, it is
also important for the QC. Also, we may need to consider different types of
failures with different reactions. Personally, I think that the behaviour
under failure conditions is a framework issue. For the moment I think that
in terms of requirements, the suggestion that both maintenance and release
of existing flows should be supported is a good starting point. I thought,
however, that we were going to put all the failure behaviour under open
issues for the requirements.

Sven.

Yes that's it, the protocol must support options for fault recovery
including the maintenance and the release of existing flows.

Marc:

Ok, but I think that this is a specific interpretation of the requirement
that is not captured in the wording.
What you are referring to is more along the lines of protocol support for
fault recovery. May be useful
(if the initiator is down, who are the protocol peers? if the initiator is
in the path, how can the protocol
be used? etc.)

Anyway, thanks.

Gary,

I assume that based based on this requirement, there needs to be a
mechanism
in the protocol to determine if the QoS Initiator is actually down. So to
come back to your original question, I do think that this is actually a
protocol requirement and not merely an implementation issue.

Marco:

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for
finite life times.

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms
at a given node?

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

On the scalability issue, I tend to agree with Roland here as well. So my 
proposal is to add Anders text but keep the scalability text (can be 
removed later if required) objections.


I agree with Roland on the second thing (the priority on signalling 
messages) If the protocol is not detectable we have a problem anyway. And 
Anders even says it in the last sentence of the paragraph "From protocol 
design this requirement states that the protocol messages should be 
detectable, at least where the control and assignment of the messages 
priority is done."

And I read the paragraph such that it is the providers business what he 
wants to do, but from the architecture and protocol point of the 
requirements states that it needs to be poswsible that the provider can do 
it.

And I agree with Anders that the difference lies more in what for the 
requierements document is used.

If Jukka has no major concerns I will include the Anders text for the next 
version of the doc. Title of Requirement I propose "Ability to assign 
transport quality to signaling messages"

If I am not mistaken, we already closed this issue. The decision was not to 
include it as a requirement. This might be an optimization in certain 
cases, and it even might be useful from an application perspective, but 
nevertheless seams to more an extension than a hard requirement.

Sorry I was mistaken. We keep the issue open until we resolved the issue on 
bi-directional QoS path setup.

As Ruediger I would like to hear some other opinions as well. I think the 
whole fault handling is an open issue anyway and preempting flows might 
play a roll in fault handling as well.

Dear all,

At the IETF meeting in MPLS I proposed to change the structure of the 
document in the following way. This mail just checks whether there are 
major concerns with that.

The changes include
- put all the scenarios into an appendix
- In Section 6 add text describing 3 different "parts of the network"
	-Host to first hop
	-access network
	-core networks
  better names are welcome, but I don't want to be religious about it

- Prioritize the requirements according to the "parts of the network" (This 
means the the tables in Section 6 of the current draft will get three 
colums with the MUST, SHOULDs, and MAYs for each requirement

If no major concerns are voiced I will go with this structure.

Marcus

Sharif,

I got the feeling in MPLS WG meeting that defining QoS parameters (or more 
general service descripions is currently out of scope of the NSIS work.

We even have a number of requirements in the -00 draft that are service 
specific and will be removed.

I got the feeling this might belong into a framework document. Or do you 
think it belongs into the reqs draft.

Marco:
 
Understood. I suspect that the IETF (i.e. the wg perhaps, and likely at
least the IESG) 
will not be in favour of 2), and will support 1).
 
The bottom line, at this point is that the requirement needs to be
clarified, I think.
 
Thanks,
Gary

Gary,
 
To answer your question I must make assumptions about the solution. For
example:
 
1) In the case of a soft-state solution such as RSVP, Case #1 is explicityly
supported. The refresh message acts as a "keep alive". The semantics of the
protocol is that a reservation timeouts in a short duration if not
refreshed. The refreshments are per flow. Behaviour #2 is not supported. If
it were supported exclusively then refresh would not exist.
 
2) In contrast ATM UNI does not do per flow/connection refresh. My best
recollection is as follows. If the signaling channel is detected as having
gone down (via some sort of keep alive mechanism) then all associated
connections are released. Because ATM "refreshes" the signaling channel and
not the flows/connections, for any individual connection the protocol will
reach a steady state in which no additional messages are sent. While this
may be seen as implicit implementation of behaviour #1 from the overall
layered perspective, from the UNI state machine perspective behaviour #2 is
being supported. 
 
Not sure if this fully answers your question....
 
Marco

Marco: 

  I fully agree that resource allocations need to have the option for 
finite life times. 

  However, I am unclear as to how 1) versus 2) would change the semantics 
of the protocol? As opposed to the semantics of resource reservation
algorithms 
at a given node? 

  To state this in another fashion, if I attached a protocol 
analyzer to a link carrying NSIS, what protocol semantics could 
I capture that would reflect this resource timing?

The other, perhaps more significant question, is whether the
fail over mechanism is NSIS protocol driven, as Marco is suggestion,
or locally driven, as in a self-healing network, as in Internet routing.

Pros and cons for both, and perhaps both are needed. Let's be careful about
all the assumptions the lay behind a signalling approach to fault
management.

More to the original point, I believe the requirement needs to be clarified.
There is a possibility that there are actually two requirements (based upon
two different interpretations of the current requirement that have been 
expressed).

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; To me this is part of the semantics of the =
protocol. My</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; requirement is that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; the protocol support the following two =
behaviours:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; 1) When the QOS Initiator goes down, the =
resources it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; requested will be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; released</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; 2) When the QOS Initiator goes down, the =
resources it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; requested will not be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; released</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; The reason for supporting behaviour #2 is =
the case where an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; entity in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; network proxy signals on behalf of a large =
number of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; customers. We want the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; ability for the corresponding connections =
to stay up should a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; controller</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; fail. For policy reasons we may want to =
require that behaviour #1 be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; enforced for some customers. Obviously if =
a customer is paying for a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; connection that would want #1 to be =
enforced as well.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; =============================</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Based on interest from folks engaged in manet, mobileip, and seamoby</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; working groups, an unofficial meeting was held to discuss issues</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; surrounding the triggers at layer 2 to communicate information to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; upper layers in a hosts protocol stack.&nbsp; Two drafts, one discussing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the issues (draft-manyfolks-l2-mobilereq-01.txt) and another proposing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; an API (draft-guri-seamoby-paging-trigger-00.txt) had been previously</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; submitted.&nbsp; The objective of the meeting was to discover if the scope</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; should be more broad than the drafts proposed.&nbsp; This was accomplished</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; by a somewhat unstructured discussion that touched on several topics</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; including what information to express, how it is delivered, and some</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; possible next steps.&nbsp; The conversation and some perceived conclusions</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; are summarized below.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; WHAT TO EXPRESS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Not a new problem, past experience likely useful:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; The need for communication about L2 state to L3 is not new.&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Routers have</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; been handling it, largely with proprietary means for years.&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Routers are in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; fact the canonical customers for this function; they by </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; definition perform</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; their principal L3 function based on L2 state info.&nbsp; Routing </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; folks have</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; learned a lot about how links lie about their state (e.g., </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; links that fail</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; half-duplex).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; In fact, router manufacturers may have insight as to which </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; metrics would be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; of interest or possibly how to extend or abstract them if </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; they are willing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to share the information.&nbsp; Getting input from people familiar </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; with routing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; would be valuable.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Small set of common functions seen as useful:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; The most common need expressed for information to be revealed was a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; link up/down indicator.&nbsp; This might be extended to be a table</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; containing reachability to multiple access points for technologies</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; where that is possible.&nbsp; (There already exists an appropriate SNMP</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; message but it appears to be largely unused.)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Interaction with MobileIP:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; In mobileIP on a wireless link, an L3 handover may, but does </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; not always,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; occur when the mobile node moves to a new access point.&nbsp; Link layer</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; protocols provide more accurate, and possibly timelier, reachability</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; information than L3 'hello' protocols.&nbsp; There is great benefit if a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; mobileIP L3 can learn that a handover is imminent, rather than waiting</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; until after the old link is gone.&nbsp; Early warning may allow mobileIP to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; optimize the L3 hand-off process in a number of ways, such as </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; triggering an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; L3 early hand-off or moving context to the new router.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Discussion about architectural principles and amount of </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; revealed information:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; It was suggested that it might be valuable to reveal *any* </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; information that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; might be of interest to any part of the host, e.g., bit error </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; rate, or link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; bandwidth.&nbsp; For example, a video codec (e.g., MPEG-4) might behave</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; differently if it was aware of the bit error rate of the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; wireless link.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; This was widely thought to be a bad idea as it suggests an </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; architecture</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; which is not general - leading to applications that are too </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; tightly bound to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; specific link types or depend on the assumption that the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; 'difficult' link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; is the one nearest the end host.&nbsp; The Internet layer, as the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; 'waist in the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; protocol hourglass' insulates the application from the link </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; layer.&nbsp; The</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; question of what information ought to be passed up from L3 is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; separate from</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; what info L3 could usefully get from L2, and should be considered</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Management applications considered a special case:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; In the context of the above discussion, management </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; applications were seen</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; as a special case that might require greater access to link </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; information</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; than would normally be made available to normal applications (or even</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; protocol stack internals).&nbsp; This is because the application is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; intentionally associated with the management of a specific L2 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; technology.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; For example, 802.11 cards typically come with a management </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; application that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; reveals information about the card status, link status, and access</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; point(s).&nbsp; This information is necessary to ensure the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; correct functioning</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; of the card and should not be considered an Internet network </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; application.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; HOW IS L2 INFORMATION DELIVERED</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Options for how to implement L2/3 communication include an </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; API, a MIB, or a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; protocol.&nbsp; Most of the applications discussed above do not require</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; communication across the wire and so a protocol does not seem to be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; justified or appropriate.&nbsp; It's unclear whether an API or MIB is more</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; appropriate.&nbsp; MIBs were considered by some as somewhat 'heavyweight'</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; because accessing local information typically requires SNMP </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to localhost</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; and implies ASN.1 marshaling that is not needed in this </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; situation.&nbsp; This</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; issue is particularly important to small memory and </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; power-limited wireless</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; devices.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Most participants agreed that the difficult task that needs </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to be done is to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; determine the right set of metrics to abstract and capture </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; them in a common</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; location.&nbsp; It was widely recognized that the question of MIB or API is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; really secondary to the question of what information should be passed</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; between L2 and L3.&nbsp; In the IETF, that process is frequently </FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Since the IETF doesn't develop link technologies, one output </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; of an IETF</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; effort might include an informational RFC on which information to</FONT>

I guess my main issue is that this "requirement" seems to embed
definitions of flow treatment in the definition of the signalling
protocol. This, to me, is simply the wrong thing to do, unless there
is not clear reason why the two cannot be kept separate. I haven't
heard this reason.

BTW: the priority of a flow IS coupled to it's QoS requirements.
As a counter example, what does an low priority EF flow mean?
Could you support EF PHB for a flow if it had a "lower priority" (where
lower priority implies a higher liklihood of pre-emption of service)
then an AF or BE flow within a router? The answer is, very probably =
not.

Let's not debate QoS definitions in NSIS. I think John has stated that
QoS definition is out of scope for NSIS, and declaring a particular =
flow
treatment such as priority as not being QoS doesn't help.

Marcus,

The question was how to derive the QSCs, and I suggested that the QSCs can
be mappable from a set of performance metrics that capture the constraints
on the QoS.

My understanding from your message is that NSIS is not required to come up
with a standardized performance metrics?

However, the notion of QSCs are in the draft, which I support, and hoping to
send text shortly to the list on its classification.

Sharif.

Sharif,

I got the feeling in MPLS WG meeting that defining QoS parameters (or more 
general service descripions is currently out of scope of the NSIS work.

We even have a number of requirements in the -00 draft that are service 
specific and will be removed.

I have a question for clarification.

I think it was stated that NSIS should only be concerned with the
establishment of QoS after handoff.

This is inconvienent with respect to IP-level QoS negotiation, which ideally
should be done before handoff has taken place.

QoS negotiation is in the current requirements draft.

So, NSIS signaling protocol development should be concerned with activity
before handoff occurs.

Sharif.

If anyone has references on IP packet schedulers with QoS capability, I'd
appreciate if you can send me information.

I'd also be interested to know if you're working on such projects.

Thanks.

If you are asking about the actual design of IP packet scheduling algorithms,
then try to see:
http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~hzhang/
Hui Zhang is very active in this field.

I did not follow this thread and consequently I am not sure of what a
priority in this context is, but it seems to me
that it would mean some information that refers to a set of QoS parameters
for a given flow. So, why not consider  the use of well known
services (WKS) and defining well known service ids (WKS-IDs) as some class
of a service specification with delay, bandwidth, etc.. information and
use a flow-id or a WKS-ID to refer to it. Of course there is the problem
of having these predefined for scalability. I am using the term service
here to refer to a class of flows with some common QoS characteristics.
The goal here is NOT to define services but to identify using these
WKS-IDs some classes and build some templates for them that some domains
may aggree to use for end-to-end QoS.

So for example in the DSCP field one may have this WKS-ID that represents an
aggreagate flow class and which may locally be mapped
to any QoS domain specific technology (IntServ, DiffServ, over provisionning, ...)
Their mapping depends on the local domain policies and its QoS technology.

Flows may be aggregated at the domain for example if we have two flows
that require delay values of 10ms and 5 ms, a domain may aggregate both
specifications and offer resources for the aggregate as long as the delay
is maintained bellow 5 ms. Of course considering this field, only a
limited number of classes may be defined, so if we need to maintain
information on individual flows and not simply on their aggregates, for
example to deal with those that may breach access policies or apply
admission or other  control, then another field may be used to contain
flow ids.

Hi Sharif,

I think most users will be glad to have a basic "best effort" service first
during handoffs. However in the case a user wants the service only
when the QoS can be met, beforehand or parrerally signal the QoS
information so that the such a handoff can be made only upon this
might be helpful. In this sense I agree with your concern regarding the
sequence of QoS signaling(and establishment if necessary) and
handoff. Decoupling QoS signaling and handoff is fine for NSIS design,
but IMO there is also need for providing QoS for some stringent users.

Regards
Xiaoming

Hi Sharif:

There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as to whether this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR discovery protocol). 

IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy. 

Br,
Hemant

I have a question for clarification.

I think it was stated that NSIS should only be concerned with the
establishment of QoS after handoff.

This is inconvienent with respect to IP-level QoS negotiation, which ideally
should be done before handoff has taken place.

QoS negotiation is in the current requirements draft.

So, NSIS signaling protocol development should be concerned with activity
before handoff occurs.

Sharif.

Hi Marcus,

This sounds like a good proposal.  I look forward to the new draft.

Hi Marcus,

I agree that it is primarily suited for a framework draft. However, we
introduced it also as a rationale for the distinction between the different
uses of an NSIS protocol. As such, it may have some relevance there too.
Given the evolution of the requirements draft, I would agree to save this
for inclusion in the framework.

Sven.

I got the feeling this might belong into a framework document. Or do you
think it belongs into the reqs draft.

Hi all,

Just to follow on to Hemant's comment:

CAR discovery may be used to select handoff targets with
correct QoS support / capabilities.  Context Transfer (CT)
can be used with the handoff procedure to ensure proper
QoS state gets transfered to the new access router.

[HC] I agree with this.

If there is anyone interested in this work, please let me
know.  The SeaMoby chairs asked me to see if NSIS can provide
them any information about QoS needs.

[HC] Yes, NSIS protocol must have provisions to *accept* session's QoS data (transferred by CT) from new AR during QoS  signalling. Still, IMHO target selection and CT aspects as such should be out of scope of NSIS.

thanks,
John

Gary,

I absolutely disagree on this one. Priority is related to the question how
badly you want a certain connection to be set up and how badly you want to
keep it in place once it is there. QoS refers to the characteristics for
the flow once it is set up. In the TE-WG we came to the same conclusion
regarding DiffServ and priority. They are completely orthogonal.

Sven.

Hi all,

It seems the most likely candidate for the interim meeting will be:

	Helsinki, May 21 - 23

Does this work for everybody?

Topics would include.

	1) Requirements
	2) Protocol Comparison 
	3) Framework Issues
	4) Relations to other work

thanks,
John

Yes, and if NSIS list members have input for QoS issues into
SeaMoby, that would be good.

Hi Hemant, John,

Yes, I agree that target selection and CT aspects as such should be out of
scope of NSIS,
instead, task of SEAMOBY. 

However, following req-draft "exclusions" section 4.3.2:
   4.3.2. Specific mechanisms (APIs and so on) for interaction between
   transport/applications and the network layer are not considered,
   except to clarify the requirements on the negotiation capabilities
   and information semantics that would be needed of the signaling
   protocol. The same applies to application adaptation mechanisms.

and section 5.10.3 - Combination with Mobility management:
   Combining mobility and QoS signaling should be supported for
   economic signaling behavior (e.g., negotiation with the new access
   network: Mobile IP message to acquire new care-of address and query
   for QoS information could be combined, in order to preserve
   bandwidth and reduce latency).

I think NSIS should clarify the interaction of negotiation (via SEAMOBY or
other mechanisms) and QoS signaling though. If we simply exclude other
possibilities and only allow "QoS signaling after handoff", we may get a QoS
losing much beauty in mobility scenarios.

Cheers,
Xiaoming

Dear all, 

I just reread RFC 1633. It was very interesting reading and for those on the nsis-list that haven't read it during the last years I suggest you do. 

It's very interesting to read remarks like "there is an inescabable requirement for routers to be able to reserve resources... This in turn requires flow-specific state in the routers" and "We take the view that there should be a single service model for the Internet". One can ask oneself, has anyone of these statements truly changed? It's even more interesting to think of in conjunction with (pure) diffserv where neither of these are true.

To my main point though, there are 6 points I could find that ought to be interesting to discuss in regards to NSIS. These are either listed as further work, or in one instance I found the text to be vague. [Please, if you choose to respond to this email, alter the header so it is clear which one of the six points you are addressing]

1) Usage Feedback. 
"Another important issue in the service is the model for usage feedback, also known as accounting...", "this is a highly contentious issue, and we are not prepared to say more about this at this time". 

Have we collectively learned more about what "accounting"-models to support today so we can determine what the requirements truly are? 

2) Reservation model
"The 'reservation model' describes how an application negotiates for a QoS level.", "Further work is needed to define the amount of generality, with a corresponding level of complexity, that is required in the reservation model."

Once again, have we learned more on this issue, or are we still at a point where we do not know the answer? I see people asking for very complex models and others (such as myself) that states that a yes/no reply is enough. 

3) Flow Id (under section 4.1.3)
"One approach to reducing the overhead of classification would be to provide a 'flow-id' field in the Internet-layer packet header... There are a number of variations of this concept, and engineering is required to choose the best design."

Have we learned what is the best design? Or at least a reasonable good design so we can get it deployed? Another related question, do we need a definition of "flows" in NSIS? 

4) Receiver initiation
"... For simplicity and economy, a setup protocol should support only one direction of       initiation, and, and receiver initiation appears to us to be the clear winner."

I know there were some discussions on this topic at the IETF, but I find it good to re-iterate this again. Is receiver initiation still the clear winner? [for those who jump up a scream an immediate no, please pay attention to multicast... :-)] And, does the accounting-model have any impact on the reservation initiation direction? 

5) Routing and reservation
"Some have suggested that reservation setup necessarily requires route set up, i.e., the imposition of a virtual-circuit internet layer.  However, our goal is to simply extend the Internet architecture, not replace it.".

I see (once again) some folks at the NSIS list advocating that a route set up or VC-like mechanisms is necessary. With our current knowledge, is there substansial reasons to change the conclusion of Braden et al? 

(in later chapters) 
"It may eventually be possible to fold together the routing and reservation setup problems, but we do not yet understand enough to do that."

Do we understand this issue better today? (this is perhaps somebody elses problem... irtf-rrg?). 

6) Mobility
"The last routing-related issue is provided by mobile hosts.  Our conjecture is that mobility is not essentially different from other route changes, so that the mechanism suggested ... will suffice.  More study and experimentation is needed to prove or disprove this conjecture." 
 
Have somebody been able to prove or disprove this conjecture?

best regards, 

Anders
ps, 
one issue I deliberately left out was the most obvious: "We conclude that there is an inescapable requirement for routers to be able to reserve resources, in order to provide special QoS for specific user packet streams, or "flows".  This in turn requires flow-specific state in the routers,", with Frank Kelly's and others work - is this true today, or can we do something much simpler? Or is reservations simply a dead end... 
psps I know we have touched on some of these issues, but I do not see them as resolved.

We are not talking about priority of data traffic overothers, but on the 
case of the capacity already completly give away and a new service request 
arriving. One can then specify, whether it is possible to preempt 
guaranteed reservations.

I would like see whether this is worth a reqirement.

Actually, we do not want to go down the path of defining nore standardizing 
QoS service classes or something the like. I think the definition of QSC 
might vanish, or at least not further defined nor any requirements are 
listed concerning the QSC. Actually, we most likly remove some 
requirements, which seam to be very service-specific.

I think that interested parties should write up possibilities for
these interactions, so that they can be discussed.d  I don't think
we can put anything into the requirements for this, but perhaps
in the framework document.

--NextPart

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: OSPF TE Only Option
	Author(s)	: V. Naidu
	Filename	: draft-venkata-ospf-te-only-option-00.txt
	Pages		: 4
	Date		: 04-Apr-02
	
OSPF is a link state routing protocol used for IP-network 
topology discovery using different types of Link State 
Advertisements. The resulting Link State Database (LSDB) is
used to compute IP address forwarding table based on 
shortest-path criteria. OSPF has been extended to support Traffic 
Engineering, QoS in packet and non-packet networks. These has
been a serious concern regarding scalability and convergence of
information in large networks. 
This memo documents an optional OSPF capability to support TE only 
functionality. This OSPF TE Only option is to support existing and 
future Traffic Engineering extensions for packet and/or non-packet
networks with out exchanging any hop-by-hop routing information. 
This is accomplished by exchanging T-bit option in OSPF Hello 
packets. This gives flexibility of supporting larger TE areas,
increased scalability and improved convergence.

Well said. We are so quick to discard previous work since it is not our
invention, and so eager to re-invent the wheel since it will have our name
on it.

A sadden state of current technology industries, we may know more about
technology, but we lost fundamental engineering and scientific discipline.

Subject: [NSIS] Looking back at RFC 1633

Dear all, 

I just reread RFC 1633. It was very interesting reading and for those on the
nsis-list that haven't read it during the last years I suggest you do. 

It's very interesting to read remarks like "there is an inescabable
requirement for routers to be able to reserve resources... This in turn
requires flow-specific state in the routers" and "We take the view that
there should be a single service model for the Internet". One can ask
oneself, has anyone of these statements truly changed? It's even more
interesting to think of in conjunction with (pure) diffserv where neither of
these are true.

To my main point though, there are 6 points I could find that ought to be
interesting to discuss in regards to NSIS. These are either listed as
further work, or in one instance I found the text to be vague. [Please, if
you choose to respond to this email, alter the header so it is clear which
one of the six points you are addressing]

1) Usage Feedback. 
"Another important issue in the service is the model for usage feedback,
also known as accounting...", "this is a highly contentious issue, and we
are not prepared to say more about this at this time". 

Have we collectively learned more about what "accounting"-models to support
today so we can determine what the requirements truly are? 

2) Reservation model
"The 'reservation model' describes how an application negotiates for a QoS
level.", "Further work is needed to define the amount of generality, with a
corresponding level of complexity, that is required in the reservation
model."

Once again, have we learned more on this issue, or are we still at a point
where we do not know the answer? I see people asking for very complex models
and others (such as myself) that states that a yes/no reply is enough. 

3) Flow Id (under section 4.1.3)
"One approach to reducing the overhead of classification would be to provide
a 'flow-id' field in the Internet-layer packet header... There are a number
of variations of this concept, and engineering is required to choose the
best design."

Have we learned what is the best design? Or at least a reasonable good
design so we can get it deployed? Another related question, do we need a
definition of "flows" in NSIS? 

4) Receiver initiation
"... For simplicity and economy, a setup protocol should support only one
direction of       initiation, and, and receiver initiation appears to us to
be the clear winner."

I know there were some discussions on this topic at the IETF, but I find it
good to re-iterate this again. Is receiver initiation still the clear
winner? [for those who jump up a scream an immediate no, please pay
attention to multicast... :-)] And, does the accounting-model have any
impact on the reservation initiation direction? 

5) Routing and reservation
"Some have suggested that reservation setup necessarily requires route set
up, i.e., the imposition of a virtual-circuit internet layer.  However, our
goal is to simply extend the Internet architecture, not replace it.".

I see (once again) some folks at the NSIS list advocating that a route set
up or VC-like mechanisms is necessary. With our current knowledge, is there
substansial reasons to change the conclusion of Braden et al? 

(in later chapters) 
"It may eventually be possible to fold together the routing and reservation
setup problems, but we do not yet understand enough to do that."

Do we understand this issue better today? (this is perhaps somebody elses
problem... irtf-rrg?). 

6) Mobility
"The last routing-related issue is provided by mobile hosts.  Our conjecture
is that mobility is not essentially different from other route changes, so
that the mechanism suggested ... will suffice.  More study and
experimentation is needed to prove or disprove this conjecture." 
 
Have somebody been able to prove or disprove this conjecture?

best regards, 

Anders
ps, 
one issue I deliberately left out was the most obvious: "We conclude that
there is an inescapable requirement for routers to be able to reserve
resources, in order to provide special QoS for specific user packet streams,
or "flows".  This in turn requires flow-specific state in the routers,",
with Frank Kelly's and others work - is this true today, or can we do
something much simpler? Or is reservations simply a dead end... 
psps I know we have touched on some of these issues, but I do not see them
as resolved.

Sven:

  Yes, I misinterpreted the application of priority. My apologies.
I do not agree that DS and priority are orthogonal, but the application
of priority to admission of new flows is a different dimension on the
problem.

  I say that they are not orthogonal, because it would seem to me that if 
you were going to make a decision on whether or not to pre-empt established 
traffic for new traffic, then you must consider QoS. Example: the nature of 
the decision to admit new BE flows should be completely different then the 
decision to admit new EF flows because of the tighter, more deterministic, 
constraints on resource allocation for EF versus BE.

  More important is the consideration that from a user perspective, QoS is 
ultimately part of the service contract, implicit or explicit, between the 
network and the user (or between two networks). Any pre-emption actions must

fit within the agreed upon service model, and this is a policy decision, 
not a routing decision nor is it an admission control decision, in the 
strictest sense of admission control. The possibility that a users flows
could be dropped for reasons outside the control of the user is part of the
quality of the service offering.

  BTW: when I refer to "policy", I do not necessarily imply that a policy 
management system is required. While there are, perhaps, advantages to a PM
approach, the policy decisions and enforcement could be performed in other
fashions,
e.g. through a local, access network dependent mechanism. 

  And so, it is not clear to me why NSIS has to be worried about this
admission
"priority", per se. If relevant to the network, it should be encapsulated in

the TLA, which should be encapsulated in the QoS description, whatever form
that 
description takes.

  The net benefit here is by putting this priority where it belongs, in the
QoS description, NSIS is not implying a preferred operational model for the
access network, nor preferred functionality. And, still, the capability can
still be supported.

  Again, making priority explicitly in NSIS is still defining QoS models.

Regards,
Gary

Ok, first observation: clearly I am not alone in my mis-interpretation of 
what this priority means.

Second, I am confused as to why NSIS would be concerned with defining what
amounts to a class of service identifier. 

I concur with Djamel on the need for an identifier, but only with respect
to the type of identifies that have been discussed in so many other wgs:
as one of the defined value fields in a VTD data chunk carried by the
protocol.
Some values of this identifier may require standardization through IANA -
as well known services, but do these values have to be determined by NSIS?

Perhaps I am missing an important issue here with the semantics of a QoS 
control protocol, but given the scope of the requirements, I see NSIS as
being more of a container protocol then an SS7 or UNI protocol. This allows
NSIS to be used in a variety of network implementations.

Does anyone know of semantic/performance issues with this approach?

Gary

<TITLE>RE: [NSIS] On the definition of QoS flow and aggregate flow.</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Ok, first observation: clearly I am not alone in my mis-interpretation of </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>what this priority means.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Second, I am confused as to why NSIS would be concerned with defining what</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>amounts to a class of service identifier. </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>I concur with Djamel on the need for an identifier, but only with respect</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to the type of identifies that have been discussed in so many other wgs:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>as one of the defined value fields in a VTD data chunk carried by the protocol.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Some values of this identifier may require standardization through IANA -</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>as well known services, but do these values have to be determined by NSIS?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Perhaps I am missing an important issue here with the semantics of a QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>control protocol, but given the scope of the requirements, I see NSIS as</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>being more of a container protocol then an SS7 or UNI protocol. This allows</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>NSIS to be used in a variety of network implementations.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Does anyone know of semantic/performance issues with this approach?</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Having a single priority value would make it much easier to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; quantify QoS to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; define a flow, as opposed to a whole set of parameters like delay,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; throughput, jitter ............</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; I did not follow this thread and consequently I am not sure of what a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; priority in this context is, but it seems to me</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that it would mean some information that refers to a set of </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS parameters</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; for a given flow. So, why not consider&nbsp; the use of well known</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; services (WKS) and defining well known service ids (WKS-IDs) </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; as some class</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; of a service specification with delay, bandwidth, etc.. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; information and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; use a flow-id or a WKS-ID to refer to it. Of course there is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the problem</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; of having these predefined for scalability. I am using the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; term service</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; here to refer to a class of flows with some common QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; characteristics.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; The goal here is NOT to define services but to identify using these</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; WKS-IDs some classes and build some templates for them that </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; some domains</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; may aggree to use for end-to-end QoS.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; So for example in the DSCP field one may have this WKS-ID </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that represents an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; aggreagate flow class and which may locally be mapped</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to any QoS domain specific technology (IntServ, DiffServ, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; over provisionning, ...)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Their mapping depends on the local domain policies and its </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS technology.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Flows may be aggregated at the domain for example if we have two flows</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that require delay values of 10ms and 5 ms, a domain may </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; aggregate both</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; specifications and offer resources for the aggregate as long </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; as the delay</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; is maintained bellow 5 ms. Of course considering this field, only a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; limited number of classes may be defined, so if we need to maintain</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; information on individual flows and not simply on their </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; aggregates, for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; example to deal with those that may breach access policies or apply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; admission or other&nbsp; control, then another field may be used to contain</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; flow ids.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; A flow aggregate can be defined as a set of flows, where </FONT>

I dont understand the trouble here. We are making signaling, which is
per se the interface to an admission control function. Admission
control's role is to reject (hopefully not too much) users who want to
consume concurrently the same resources (such as an EF).
The first feature we can add to a "rough" signaling, is priority. For
example, when I want to call 911, I want the same QoS than a normal
call, this is normal voice, but I prefer not to be rejected by the
admission control.

A way to implement priority is preemption. Which  means to me to
interrupt the EF marking of already accepted flows, and notifying this
"normal" EF users they have no more the EF/voice quality.
There are other ways. For instance, an admission control can refuse
normal calls when some treshold is reached, and then only accept
priority calls.
 
So I would conclude that preemption is not a requirement for NSIS, but
priority should be supported by nsis.

  Sorry, I may be just thick between the ears, but did you mean 
"QoS needs" or "QoS signalling needs"????

Hemant:

  Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and
I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation 
protocol. The main application that you are referring to primarily
arises out of a perceived need to determine at the MN the best link
layer to handover over to when inter-technology handovers are involved.
It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value in
that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a discovery 
protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine the 
choice of channels available; for intra-technology handovers, there 
are many, many reasons why this "choice" may not be available).

  There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply NSIS involvement
during/after a handover. John has stated that this is not the intention
(please correct me if I have this wrong John), in which case I think
5.1.2 needs to be clarified. 

  Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new QoS for an 
existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for establishing
QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the role
of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe, and clearly
handover is a dynamic situation that could cause the QoS provided to change.


  I have been told there is no issue, but here's a frightening scenario:

	- a handover takes place, and context transfer has been used to
       move the QoS context to the new routers (by the requirements for
       CT this could be intra-, or inter- technology. Some of us believe
       that for "seamless" handovers, the context will be available at
       routers before the first packets need to be forwarded. This implies
       that there is a relationship, probabilistic perhaps, between
       the handover process and the target ARs for CT.

     - CARD is used by the MN to influence the handover decision (it
       is not clear to me how this happens, but it seems clear that
       for a more "seamless" handover, the MN should chose an AR that 
       has received the appropriate context; if not, then what?

     - NSIS kicks in and starts re-negotiating QoS because of changes
       introduced by the handover; 

  How do these three protocols interact to produce predictable outcomes? 
Or, perhaps, the question is, how do the functional entities associated 
with the three protocols interact before, during and after a handover? 
If it the interaction is within the functional entities, the respective 
wg's could declare the issue out of scope, but this approach does not 
sit well with me, for it seems to defer the problem to the people who
have to implement this "stuff".

  Am I imagining things?

Cheers,
Gary

Hi Alban,

the question is: is it really required to signal the priority
of a reservation? I think Gary just said that both priority
and preemption can be determined by the provider policy.
Otherwise end-users can always signal highest priority
for their requests, so the provider has to decide when to preempt
and what to preempt anyway. While a preemption mechanism for
reservations is perfectly reasonable (e.g. for 911 or possibly 
for handovers), I currently don't see a real requirement or 
benefit to _signal_ reservation  priority. This should rather 
be a (local) policy issue.

The issue is whether this is a new feature that needs to be addressed =
by
an NSIS solution or whether it is an interworking issue.

NSIS should not be attempting to replace the existing IETF solutions =
unless
there is a clear issue to be resolved.

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; Interesting. Why would this not be a =

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; I dont understand the trouble here. We are =
making signaling, which is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; per se the interface to an admission control =
function. Admission</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; control's role is to reject (hopefully not too =
much) users who want to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; consume concurrently the same resources (such =
as an EF).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; The first feature we can add to a =
&quot;rough&quot; signaling, is priority. For</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; example, when I want to call 911, I want the =
same QoS than a normal</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; call, this is normal voice, but I prefer not to =
be rejected by the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; admission control.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; A way to implement priority is preemption. =
Which&nbsp; means to me to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; interrupt the EF marking of already accepted =
flows, and notifying this</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &quot;normal&quot; EF users they have no more =
the EF/voice quality.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; There are other ways. For instance, an =
admission control can refuse</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; normal calls when some treshold is reached, and =
then only accept</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; priority calls.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt;&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; So I would conclude that preemption is not a =

Preemption is real and will continue to be real in the real world for decades
and/or longer.

Preemption, other than by randomizing mechanisms, is a deterministic action
based on local policy *only* when there are in place certain differentiators
between packets/flows to appropriately perform this action.

Preemption shouldn't be mandatory in all product implementations. However, the
ability to perform this action shouldn't be omitted from this WG's output.

The ability to preempt should be optional, and if chosen, should have specific
definitions to follow coming from NSIS.

For examples of preemption in today's networks, merely look at eMLPP in GSM
networks which has 15 levels of Priority with 5 of these levels having
hierarchical preemption characteristics operational. Look at MLPP in US DOD and
NATO networks (5 levels). Verizon and VoiceStream petitioned the US FCC (Nov
01) to each "enable" eMLPP Preemption in their public deployments of Wireless
throughout the US (if not North America). Many countries have preemption within
their existing PSTN today, many others forbid it (to clarify - the US is *NOT*
one of them).

If NSIS wants to migrate any of these networks over to IP, or be part of any
migration or transition, preemption ought to be defined the WG, albeit as an
option - with specifics surrounding that/those options.

Hi Gary and Roland

My question is  how can the provider know that a particular flow deserve
a higher priority when a user requests QoS? 
Sometimes a user want not to be prempted or really wants its request to
be satisfied because he calls his boss, or the police etc... Sometimes,
the same user wants a "regular" call or session, which implies that the
network may refuse it because there is in competition a call to 911 or a
session with a big boss.
So only the initiator could signal to the network that a session is
really more important than another. It's just a question of a
high/medium/normal tag in a request. The network could then accept this
priority, or not, depending on policy/user profile... In case of network
failure, the QoS controller could also react in order to reestablish the
high priority flows before the others.

The only other solution i see could be to put this priority information
in the service description. But again, this type of solution mixes
admission control performed by the QoS controller, and the provisionning
of QoS. This lead to difficulties in network provisionning, or/and to a
poor design in the QoS controller that will be QSC dependant.

Hello,

well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,

- CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR
- if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may
    consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS establishment
    beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.

CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the
parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any
signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR
should be outside the scope of seamoby..

Regards,

-Rajeev

The issue is not whether network xyz supports pre-emption or priorities, or
EF, or AF, or CBR or ABR, 
or PDP contexts. The issue is whether the NSIS protocol definition is going
to explicitly address every
one of the access network specific local QoS solutions through the explicty
definition of protocol fields 
and values, and protocol semantics.

This is not only my view, it is the very first requirement in the wg draft:
 
"5.1.1 Applicability for different QoS technologies.
 
   The QoS signaling protocol must work with various QoS technologies.
   The information exchanged over the signaling protocol must be in
   such detail and quantity that it is useful for various QoS
   technologies."

We can debate the virtues and vices of priority models forever (it's
certainly not a new debate). 
But the actual issue for NSIS is how to support all reasonable QoS solutions
in an efficient manner.
It is my view that defining NSIS protocol fields for every variation is not
the way to proceed.

Gary

Subject: [NSIS] Preemption


Preemption is real and will continue to be real in the real world for
decades and/or longer.

Preemption, other than by randomizing mechanisms, is a deterministic action
based on local policy *only* when there are in place certain differentiators
between packets/flows to appropriately perform this action.

Preemption shouldn't be mandatory in all product implementations. However,
the ability to perform this action shouldn't be omitted from this WG's
output.

The ability to preempt should be optional, and if chosen, should have
specific definitions to follow coming from NSIS.

For examples of preemption in today's networks, merely look at eMLPP in GSM
networks which has 15 levels of Priority with 5 of these levels having
hierarchical preemption characteristics operational. Look at MLPP in US DOD
and NATO networks (5 levels). Verizon and VoiceStream petitioned the US FCC
(Nov 01) to each "enable" eMLPP Preemption in their public deployments of
Wireless throughout the US (if not North America). Many countries have
preemption within their existing PSTN today, many others forbid it (to
clarify - the US is *NOT* one of them).

If NSIS wants to migrate any of these networks over to IP, or be part of any
migration or transition, preemption ought to be defined the WG, albeit as an
option - with specifics surrounding that/those options.

There is an issue if CT fails. In that case, some kind of negotiation
after handover would be required.

So, I'd say that some indication of CT failure is needed.

As for CAR, I don't see the relevance for QoS negotiation, though it may
be useful for finding a new wireless medium. I also see it primarily for
intertechnology handover, or, at best, interprovider handover.

Yes, but this is between AR and MN. If CT fails, the AR should
notify the MN to engage in context re-creation.

My point was specific to signaling _beyond_ AR (i.e., upstream signaling)
independent of failure/success of CT.

Hope this is clearer..

Alban:

  I agree with most of what you have said, but really, it is not up
the end system to determine whether it's traffic should pre-empt flows
from other end systems. The decision to pre-empt can only be
made by the network (ignoring the trivial case of an end-host =
requesting
pre-emption of it's own flows).

  At best, pre-emption is the result of a negotiation between a host =
and
the network. This does not have to be a dynamic negotiation: the =
ability
to pre-empt could be part of the agreed upon QoS (first class =
passengers
get to board and leave the airplane before other passengers). The =
dynamic
case can be treated as simply part of QoS negotiation.=20

I believe the only important question is whether there are special
signalling
requirements that can only be addressed by an explicit NSIS protocol
semantics,
rather then the identified requirement for NSIS to negotiate QoS.

In an earlier email, I did ask for some explanation of these special =
QoS=20
signalling semantics for pre-emption, and I am interested in hearing
the rationale.

Cheers,
Gary

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; Hi Alban,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; the question is: is it really required to =
signal the priority</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; of a reservation? I think Gary just said =
that both priority</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; and preemption can be determined by the =
provider policy.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; Otherwise end-users can always signal =
highest priority</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; for their requests, so the provider has to =
decide when to preempt</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; and what to preempt anyway. While a =
preemption mechanism for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; reservations is perfectly reasonable (e.g. =
for 911 or possibly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; for handovers), I currently don't see a =
real requirement or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; benefit to _signal_ reservation&nbsp; =
priority. This should rather</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; be a (local) policy issue.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Hi Gary and Roland</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; My question is&nbsp; how can the provider know =
that a particular </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; flow deserve</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; a higher priority when a user requests QoS? =
</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Sometimes a user want not to be prempted or =
really wants its </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; request to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; be satisfied because he calls his boss, or the =
police etc... </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Sometimes,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the same user wants a &quot;regular&quot; call =
or session, which </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; implies that the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; network may refuse it because there is in =
competition a call </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; to 911 or a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; session with a big boss.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; So only the initiator could signal to the =
network that a session is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; really more important than another. It's just a =
question of a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; high/medium/normal tag in a request. The =
network could then </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; accept this</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; priority, or not, depending on policy/user =
profile... In case </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; of network</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; failure, the QoS controller could also react in =
order to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; reestablish the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; high priority flows before the others.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; The only other solution i see could be to put =
this priority </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; information</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; in the service description. But again, this =
type of solution mixes</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; admission control performed by the QoS =
controller, and the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; provisionning</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; of QoS. This lead to difficulties in network =
provisionning, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; or/and to a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; poor design in the QoS controller that will be =
QSC dependant.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Interesting. Why would this not =
be a policy decision?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; I dont understand the trouble here. =
We are making </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; signaling, which is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; per se the interface to an admission =
control function. Admission</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; control's role is to reject =
(hopefully not too much) </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; users who want to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; consume concurrently the same =
resources (such as an EF).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; The first feature we can add to a =
&quot;rough&quot; signaling, is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; priority. For</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; example, when I want to call 911, I =
want the same QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; than a normal</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; call, this is normal voice, but I =
prefer not to be rejected by the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; admission control.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; A way to implement priority is =
preemption. Which&nbsp; means to me to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; interrupt the EF marking of already =
accepted flows, and </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; notifying this</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &quot;normal&quot; EF users they have =
no more the EF/voice quality.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; There are other ways. For instance, =
an admission control </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; can refuse</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; normal calls when some treshold is =
reached, and then only accept</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; priority calls.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; So I would conclude that preemption =
is not a requirement </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; for NSIS, but</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; &gt; &gt; priority should be supported by =
nsis.</FONT>

Rajeev, James:

  This is how I see it also. I think that some work
is required to identify the conditions under which each
protocol is invoked. E.g. NSIS is not invoked with every
handover, but is certainly there to be invoked if CT
fails, or if there is a QoS disruption for whatever reason.

Thanks.
Gary

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Hello,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; - CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; - if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS establishment</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; protocol. The main application that you are referring to primarily</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a </FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine the</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; handovers, there</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply NSIS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; involvement</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; case I think</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; 5.1.2 needs to be clarified.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new QoS for an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; establishing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the role</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; and clearly</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hi Sharif:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as to whether</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery protocol).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I have a question for clarification.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I think it was stated that NSIS should only be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; concerned with the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; establishment of QoS after handoff.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; This is inconvienent with respect to IP-level QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; negotiation, which ideally</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; should be done before handoff has taken place.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS negotiation is in the current requirements draft.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; So, NSIS signaling protocol development should be concerned</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; with activity</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; before handoff occurs.</FONT>

Rajeev,

I agree, but there is still an issue of how the AR would notify the MN
if CT fails. Is this covered by CT or not?

This notification should be covered by CT.  We should offer
seamless handover to NSIS :-) Seriously, this concerns
robustness of CT protocol.

Well, as far as I see it, if CT fails it is due to one of three reasons:
 
 - the "network" is not aware that a handover to that AR is taking place
   (and the AR is forced to deal with the situation locally).

 - the context is not useable by the AR.

 - the AR cannot admit the flows.

CT does not address the first two of these issues. The first is a handover 
issue; CT allows for the AR to attempt to fetch context (aka "reactive CT"),
however, it is possible that the AR may choose to signal the MN rather then 
attempt to acquire old context). The second issues would seem to be a CARD 
issue (albeit, a network centric CARD issue).

The third reason is, in my view, also a handover issue. The handover
algorithm
cannot handover flows to ARs that have no free resources. There are issues 
here resource reservation versus over-booking and timing. Is CARD an
admission
control protocol? Does it request resource reservation, or is it timely
enough
to assure that the resource availability does not change before the handover
actually occurs?

Regards,
Gary

PS I cross-posted the first email because the issue seemed to be relevant to
both groups. If this is untrue, I will endeavour to take the issue to only
one of the two lists.

<BODY>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Well, as far as I see it, if CT fails it is due to one of three reasons:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;- the &quot;network&quot; is not aware that a handover to that AR is taking place</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; (and the AR is forced to deal with the situation locally).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;- the context is not useable by the AR.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;- the AR cannot admit the flows.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>CT does not address the first two of these issues. The first is a handover </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>issue; CT allows for the AR to attempt to fetch context (aka &quot;reactive CT&quot;),</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>however, it is possible that the AR may choose to signal the MN rather then </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>attempt to acquire old context). The second issues would seem to be a CARD </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>issue (albeit, a network centric CARD issue).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The third reason is, in my view, also a handover issue. The handover algorithm</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>cannot handover flows to ARs that have no free resources. There are issues </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>here resource reservation versus over-booking and timing. Is CARD an admission</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>control protocol? Does it request resource reservation, or is it timely enough</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to assure that the resource availability does not change before the handover</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>actually occurs?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Regards,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Gary</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>PS I cross-posted the first email because the issue seemed to be relevant to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>both groups. If this is untrue, I will endeavour to take the issue to only</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>one of the two lists.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Rajeev,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; I agree, but there is still an issue of how the AR would notify the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; if CT fails. Is this covered by CT or not?</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; So, I'd say that some indication of CT failure is needed.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Yes, but this is between AR and MN. If CT fails, the AR should</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; notify the MN to engage in context re-creation.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; My point was specific to signaling _beyond_ AR (i.e., upstream</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; signaling)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; independent of failure/success of CT.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; As for CAR, I don't see the relevance for QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; negotiation, though it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; be useful for finding a new wireless medium. I also see </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; it primarily</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hello,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; establishment</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; should be outside the scope of seamoby..</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol. The main application that you are referring to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; primarily</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; arises out of a perceived need to determine at the MN the best</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; layer to handover over to when inter-technology handovers are</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; involved.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; discovery</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; choice of channels available; for intra-technology handovers,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; there</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; are many, many reasons why this &quot;choice&quot; may not be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; available).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply NSIS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; involvement</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; during/after a handover. John has stated that this is not the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; intention</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; (please correct me if I have this wrong John), in which case I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; think</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 5.1.2 needs to be clarified.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS for an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; establishing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; role</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe, and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; clearly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; handover is a dynamic situation that could cause the QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; provided to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; change.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have been told there is no issue, but here's a frightening</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; scenario:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - a handover takes place, and context </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; transfer has been</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; used</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; move the QoS context to the new routers (by the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; requirements</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CT this could be intra-, or inter- technology. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Some of us</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; believe</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that for &quot;seamless&quot; handovers, the context will be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; available</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; at</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; routers before the first packets need to be forwarded.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; This</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; implies</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that there is a relationship, probabilistic perhaps,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; between</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the handover process and the target ARs for CT.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - CARD is used by the MN to influence the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; handover decision</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; (it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; is not clear to me how this happens, but it seems clear</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; for a more &quot;seamless&quot; handover, the MN should </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; chose an AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; has received the appropriate context; if not, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; then what?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - NSIS kicks in and starts re-negotiating QoS because of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; changes</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; introduced by the handover;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; How do these three protocols interact to produce predictable</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; outcomes?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Or, perhaps, the question is, how do the functional entities</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; associated</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; with the three protocols interact before, during and after a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; handover?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; If it the interaction is within the functional entities, the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; respective</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; wg's could declare the issue out of scope, but this approach</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; does</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; sit well with me, for it seems to defer the problem to the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; people</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; who</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; have to implement this &quot;stuff&quot;.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

First, CT is required to do everything it can to get the
context across intact, as fast as possible, which, it was decided, meant
that there was realistically only one opportunity to attempt to transfer
the context. The emphasis was placed on requiring that a given transfer of
context would not fail (e.g. the context integrity should be preserved
through
error control, etc.). Then, if the transfer failed it was because of
something 
other then the transfer process itself. 

If CT fails, it is more likely then not that handover will not be seamless
anyways, and there is nothing that CT can do, per se, to recover. 
Having said this, CT can be re-invoked by another entity, perhaps the
handover
control function, for recovery purposes. 

I'm trying to be brief, so I hope this captures what was a looooong
discussion.

John,

	So you are saying that CARD may perform QoS negotiation (if
necessary) between ARs when selecting handoff targets?

If that decision is made, then all the QoS negotiation/renegotiation
requirements should be removed from the current NSIS requirements draft,
because it would be obsolete.

Sharif.

CAR discovery may be used to select handoff targets with
correct QoS support / capabilities.  Context Transfer (CT)
can be used with the handoff procedure to ensure proper
QoS state gets transfered to the new access router.

If there is anyone interested in this work, please let me
know.  The SeaMoby chairs asked me to see if NSIS can provide
them any information about QoS needs.

thanks,
John

I wanted to put this out as a topic of discussion, as a possible joint
co-ordinated work between NSIS and IEEE 802.11 TG-E.

TG-E have been tasked with enhancing the 802.11 MAC to improve and manage
QoS. I am not sure what is the current status of this work, perhaps
participants to TG-E can provide some information. 

I believe an important study item is to figure out how QoS signaling
protocols from TG-E should interact with NSIS QoS signaling protocols.

I am aware that SEAMOBY has presented a case to TG-F where 802.11 ESS
infrastructure networks could be connected together with a router(s) in
between. How to interwork IAPP with IETF's handover protocol was the topic.

I would assume that L2 QoS signaling would terminate at the AP, and further
signaling would then be needed to transport QoS parameters across
interconnected router(s). This signaling would subsequently terminate at the
destination AP, where L2 signaling is again used.  The middle part, i.e.
transport of QoS parameters across disparate QoS domain is NSIS.

Thus, as a study:

- need to determine how and which L2 parameters need to be extracted.
- How to transform and map them to L3 parameters for sinaling
- How the two signaling protocols should interact.

I think it is worthwhile to present a case for this to TG-E at the Vancouver
Plenary.

Any interest and comments would be appreciated.

Sharif.

Gary,

CT is a protocol, and as such would have failure
modes. For instance, transferred context is not
useful at the target router. You could say that CARD
should never let this happen. Does that mean that
CT cannot be used where CARD is not available ?
I hope not!

In any case, I don't know of a protocol that does not
have failure modes. We need a notification
message in CT to inform when such a thing happens.

Regards,

-Rajeev

Hello Rajeev,

I agreed with everything you say below, except one thing:
CT can only transfer whatever QoS state that is usable at the newAR.
If the new network is using a different QoS technology with different
QoS parameters, then I am not sure if CT by itself can do the job, unless
you add your own mapping functionality.

BR,
Madjid

Hello,

well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,

- CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR
- if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may
    consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS establishment
    beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.

CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the
parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any
signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR
should be outside the scope of seamoby..

Regards,

-Rajeev

Agreed. I don't think reliability in signaling, which by the way
neither CT requirements, nor nsis requirements are covering, has to 
do with failure in QoS negotiation. I don't think you can count
the case, where the QoS information that CT has given the AR is not
applicable, as a CT failure.

This notification should be covered by CT.  We should offer
seamless handover to NSIS :-) Seriously, this concerns
robustness of CT protocol.

Well, you are opening a can of worm that took seamoby 3 months
to close without any results. People could not agree on the

Agree.

But I don't see anything in the CT requirements about handling CT
failure.

This would be an example where the new AR sends a
notification to the MN so that the MN can take
appropriate action (for instance, attempt to
re-create the context).

how does the CAR know whether or not it is able to provide the QoS
for the flows of the MN. If the question is QoS on the MN-CAR link,
then it is easy, but what if the question is on the CAR-CN side?

It seems to me that in Seamoby, both CARD and CT could act as triggers
to NSIS (QI I guess). CARD to assess whether the CAR-CN is available,
using NSIS as a probing mechanism, and CT to make the NAR-CN QoS
re-establishment.

Then both CARD and CT would need NSIS input/interaction...

Cedric.

Hi Sharif,

Chair hat on, I think it is good to encourage discussion between
the IETF & other bodies (like the IEEE).  I am not active in the
IEEE, but I would encourage those who are to try to open a dialog.

Hi Cedric

I've always considered that CAR would work on the capabilities at the
AR.  So, in the scenario, the AR could know if it had the capabilities
to support an additional 'connection' at the QoS level.  That's all
I meant.

Dear preemption discussion group,

if NSIS is ought to provide a universal service
establishment protocol and preemption/priority 
is orthogonal to QoS and a local matter, why 
then not to separate signaling?
The idea is to have one NSIS message set 
signaling QoS and another one to signal 
preemption (should signaling be required to 
support priority/preemption). An example:

- a roaming customer may learn by a policy 
  enquiry whether and how QoS and/or priority 
  are supported locally.
- in a "set up" message, QoS reservation 
  information may be joined by piggy backed 
  priority information if it is related to the 
  same reservation ID (otherwise the priority 
  information may be sent with it's own set up 
  message, always carrying a reservation ID of 
  the prior service reservation it is related
  to).
- The mechanism would work also across domains
  not supporting priority if the priority TLV is 
  marked as "discard/ignore if you don't 
  understand" or the local provider discards it
  at its border.

Please take the example only as clarification of
the basic idea. I'm not suggesting to follow 
exactly this solution.

Regards, Rüdiger

I am on the same page as you are with this.  We are not designing a solution
for a particular network or sevice.  To be successful, we need to work on
a general solution.

Hi James,

Clarification of NSIS's scope:

> If NSIS wants to migrate any of these networks over to IP, or be part of 
> any migration or transition, preemption ought to be defined the WG, albeit 
> as an option - with specifics surrounding that/those options.

NSIS is not working on migrating any networks to IP.  What NSIS will
(hopefully) do is create a signaling framework/protocol that can be
used to signal QoS.  This work may be useful for some network designers
who want to provide capabilities similar to other networks, but doing
this is not NSIS's primary goal.

John

Hi Sharif,

What I think would be useful would be for interested parties
to study this & see if one way would be more useful than
another.

John, 

How do you plan to deal with 112(911)-calls in this case? There are sometimes regulation (if I remember correctly) that require a network to support that a 112-call always gets delivered.

My concern regarding preemption is this single instance - if this is solved it is fine by me. Ie I do not see the need for a generic pre-emption mechanism. I think a combination of randomness and planning (for mobile handoffs) gives suitable behaviour. 

Anders

I don't see emergency calls listed anywhere in our charter.
This is outside of the scope, in my opinion.

There is a working group focusing on this issue:
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/ieprep-charter.html

In Minneapolis, I chatted with one of ADs about the applicability
of NSIS for Internet Emergency Preparedness work, and he felt
that NSIS was very applicable.  My feeling is that he (as AD) will
not let us go down the wrong road, however.

Again, however, NSIS is not chartered to work on services, and
at the end of the day, emergency calls are a service.

John

John, 

not sure I understand, requesting resources for something is in charter, I persume. What I stated was: there is one instance where I see a need for pre-emption in signaling and this is related to emergency calls. 

The impact of this statement is that pre-emption have to be taken into account by NSIS - unless you find another way of solving the problem of making resources available for an "emergency call". I am definitely talking about a resource allocation / signaling problem and not the "emergency call" service. Thus in scope in my opinion. 

If somebody can invalidate this statement (ie implement this feature by not including information in the signaling message) then I suggest remove this requirement. If you can't then the requirement to support pre-emption has to be in the NSIS req. draft. 

Anders

Should the protocol support pre-emption or should the network?

My opinion is that it is network policy to determine how to
do pre-emption, not a protocol issue.

Thanks - you are correct, pre-emption is not a protocol issue but a "network" issue (I also read the latest emails on the topic). Thus, I am in favour of not having this as a (signaling) requirement.

Hi Alban,

He should derive this from the service definition.

Agreed, but this refers to application-dependent priority.

I don't see how this may help the network provider, because you cannot
assume an objective priority request from users (there are always some
users who think they are (always) more important than others). If you 
only consider user suggested priority, how should the network know to 
prefer an emergency call before someone else's boss call when both 
requests had the highest possible signaled priority? Furthermore, how 
should the network decide that user A's boss is somehow more important 
(from A's view) than user B's call/boss? How should A set his priority
to preempt B's call?

Given the possibility to signal a priority for reservations:
how would you prevent (selfish/malicious) users to not always signal the 
highest possible priority? In this case the network must decide by other
means what should be preempted anyway, so I don't see the benefit of a
user signaled priority. Surely, the user may know the importance of his
own flows, but then he can also tear down less important reservations
before starting a new more important "call".

I would suggest that this implied by the service. So one would have
a special service for emergency calls, maybe a special service
for "more important" (but also more expensive) premium calls and a 
service for regular calls (all three may even use the same QoS
mechanisms, but admission control differs).

 Roland

Some people had recently suggested using flow-ids or some other already
defined identifiers in place of QSC classes.
I assume that there are RFCs that describe these things, and so would be
grateful if someone could send me pointers to them.

Thanks.

Sharif.

Madjid,

The issue isn't reliability, it is whether the target AR can interpret
the context intelligably. If not, the MN may need to recover by actually
re-initializing whatever feature the context was being transfered for.
But it cannot do this unless it knows that the CT has failed.

For some feature contexts, like header compression, this isn't a problem
because it will re-initialize automatically, but for AAA or QoS it
clearly will be.

            jak

Rajeev:

This was discussed extensively within the design team, and,
I believe, also in the working group.

CT is a transfer protocol. If the target AR is able to detect
that the transfer has failed (e.g a CRC error, a timeout), then 
the target AR simply decides if it still wants to transfer 
context from the source, and, if it does, it issues a new request
for context transfer.

No special message is required.

Rajeev:

In order for the MN to "recreate the context", the MN would
have to understand the semantics of Context transfer, etc.,
and, more important, there would have to be a protocol or
protocols that would allow the MN to recreate contexts at an AR.
I doubt that the latter is going to happen (e.g. authentication).

IF and when a CT fails, the easiest way to "recreate" context
is for the sessions to be dropped. This may seem drastic,
but in reality, what is going to cause CT to fail and
how often will this happen? 

There may be mitigating actions that could be taken to re-establish
certain sessions. But these decisions are must be driven by the policy
of the network administration (explicit or implicity), and comply
with the security, resource management and accounting requirements
for the network. Hopefully, none of these mitigating actions requires
more over-the-air signalling.

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Rajeev:</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>In order for the MN to &quot;recreate the context&quot;, the MN would</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>have to understand the semantics of Context transfer, etc.,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and, more important, there would have to be a protocol or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>protocols that would allow the MN to recreate contexts at an AR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I doubt that the latter is going to happen (e.g. authentication).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>IF and when a CT fails, the easiest way to &quot;recreate&quot; context</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>is for the sessions to be dropped. This may seem drastic,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>but in reality, what is going to cause CT to fail and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>how often will this happen? </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>There may be mitigating actions that could be taken to re-establish</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>certain sessions. But these decisions are must be driven by the policy</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>of the network administration (explicit or implicity), and comply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>with the security, resource management and accounting requirements</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>for the network. Hopefully, none of these mitigating actions requires</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>more over-the-air signalling.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Hello Rajeev,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; I agreed with everything you say below, except one thing:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; CT can only transfer whatever QoS state that is usable at the newAR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; If the new network is using a different QoS technology with </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; different</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; QoS parameters, then I am not sure if CT by itself can do </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the job, unless</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; you add your own mapping functionality.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; This would be an example where the new AR sends a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; notification to the MN so that the MN can take</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; appropriate action (for instance, attempt to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; re-create the context).</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Hello,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; - CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; - if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS establishment</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; should be outside the scope of seamoby..</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Regards,</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; protocol. The main application that you are referring to primarily</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; arises out of a perceived need to determine at the MN the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; best link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; layer to handover over to when inter-technology handovers are</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; involved.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; discovery</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; choice of channels available; for intra-technology </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; handovers, there</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; are many, many reasons why this &quot;choice&quot; may not be available).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; NSIS involvement</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; during/after a handover. John has stated that this is not the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; intention</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; (please correct me if I have this wrong John), in which </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; case I think</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; 5.1.2 needs to be clarified.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new QoS for an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; establishing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the role</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; and clearly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; handover is a dynamic situation that could cause the QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; provided to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; change.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have been told there is no issue, but here's a frightening</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; scenario:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - a handover takes place, and context transfer </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; has been used</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; move the QoS context to the new routers (by the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; requirements</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CT this could be intra-, or inter- technology. Some of us</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; believe</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that for &quot;seamless&quot; handovers, the context will be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; available at</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; routers before the first packets need to be forwarded. This</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; implies</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that there is a relationship, probabilistic </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; perhaps, between</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the handover process and the target ARs for CT.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - CARD is used by the MN to influence the handover </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; decision (it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; is not clear to me how this happens, but it seems </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; clear that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; for a more &quot;seamless&quot; handover, the MN should </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; chose an AR that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; has received the appropriate context; if not, then what?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - NSIS kicks in and starts re-negotiating QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; because of changes</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; introduced by the handover;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; How do these three protocols interact to produce predictable</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; outcomes?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; Or, perhaps, the question is, how do the functional entities</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; associated</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; with the three protocols interact before, during and </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; after a handover?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; If it the interaction is within the functional entities, the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; respective</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; wg's could declare the issue out of scope, but this </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; approach does not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; sit well with me, for it seems to defer the problem to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the people who</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; have to implement this &quot;stuff&quot;.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Am I imagining things?</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as to whether</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery protocol).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy.</FONT>

Gary,

I don't think the issue is having the MN re-create the context. Is is
allowing the MN to recover by re-running the actions that were necessary
to create the context in the first place, in the event the AR was unable
to interpret it.
Thus, for example, suppose that QoS context is transferred from old to
new AR, but new AR for some reason can't interpret it, perhaps there is
no bandwidth left or perhaps the new AR uses a different representation
for QoS context. The MN would need to be informed somehow so that it
could re-do its QoS signaling.

            jak

John, while I agree that is shouldn't be its primary goal, making sure that
certain realistic capabilities are *able* to be migrated a phase-in approach
towards IP networking should be included. If the goal of this WG is to more or
less operate in a vacuum, that's fine. I was just offering a suggestion,
especially now that Diffserv is being shut down (with those Chairs now stating
NSIS is the place to go within the IETF for QOS), to open your area up to this
capability as an option. I recommend including this option verses having to
retrofit it into your work down the road when this capability requirement from
SPs and semi-private networks will look for mechanisms to be utilized and find
that NSIS isn't one of them. I seriously don't mean that as any sort of threat,
I just am in touch with many network administrators that wish to have this
capability and want the IETF to continue to include the possibility of it in
Standards Track efforts.

All the while knowing that enabling this capability is a matter of local
policy...

Gary,

I agree about session establishment, but the fact remains that if
failure of a context transfer for some reason leaves the MN without any
indication that it should proceed to re-establish the feature, then the
MN can't know when it should redo signaling to set up its new state. We
faced this issue with BETH/FMIPv6 and the solution we found there was to
have routers on the border of a fast handover coverage area inform the
MN what handover algorithm was supported by routers in the other
coverage area. While I think this could be done for the cases involving
router configuration, such as where the next access router can't
interpret the context, I am not so sure about failure due to dynamic
conditions, such as that the router currently has all its Gold Class
service bandwidth allocated (a QoS failure).

In any event, I think there is need for some kind of signaling to
indicate to the MN that context transfer has failed and that the MN
needs to redo signaling to re-establish feature contexts.

            jak

The MN does not have to know the CT semantics.
It only needs to understand a notification message
that provides the error condition related to its
context.

Well, the MN should use whatever protocol was
used that established the context in the first place,
including for authentication.

This is a drastic idea! I think we can do better.
For one thing, you still have connectivity which
you could use to notify the MN so that the MN
can resort to re-establishing contexts (or not). Besides,
CT is a protocol, and like any other protocol has
error cases and failure modes. There must be a
notification message that provides protocol
robustness.
An example that has been brought up is where
the transferred context is not useful, either
partially or entirely. You would like to notify
the MN when this happens.

And, why are these any better when CT fails compared
to notifying a MN ? Seems to me that a notification message
would not encumber any of the above overheads. You
leave it up to the MN.

I don't see how finding a "general solution" would not permit classifying
different QoS types. There had been some discussions that flow-ids and other
types of indentifiers were available for these purposes. However, I am not
able to find any RFCs that describes this.

I am on the same page as you are with this.  We are not designing a solution
for a particular network or sevice.  To be successful, we need to work on
a general solution.

"Re-create" was Rajeev's term, not mine. I think that it is an appropriate
term if one considers other mechanisms besides session setup signalling.
Either way, it is not a CT function.

As I outlined in one of my other posts, why would you perform CT to an
AR that did not have the necessary capabilities. Is this actually about
CAR failure??

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&quot;Re-create&quot; was Rajeev's term, not mine. I think that it is an appropriate</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>term if one considers other mechanisms besides session setup signalling.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Either way, it is not a CT function.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>As I outlined in one of my other posts, why would you perform CT to an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>AR that did not have the necessary capabilities. Is this actually about</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>CAR failure??</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Gary,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; I don't think the issue is having the MN re-create the context. Is is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; allowing the MN to recover by re-running the actions that </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; were necessary</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to create the context in the first place, in the event the AR </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; was unable</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to interpret it.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Thus, for example, suppose that QoS context is transferred from old to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; new AR, but new AR for some reason can't interpret it, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; perhaps there is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; no bandwidth left or perhaps the new AR uses a different </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; representation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; for QoS context. The MN would need to be informed somehow so that it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; could re-do its QoS signaling.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Rajeev:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; In order for the MN to &quot;recreate the context&quot;, the MN would</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; have to understand the semantics of Context transfer, etc.,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; and, more important, there would have to be a protocol or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; protocols that would allow the MN to recreate contexts at an AR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; I doubt that the latter is going to happen (e.g. authentication).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; IF and when a CT fails, the easiest way to &quot;recreate&quot; context</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; is for the sessions to be dropped. This may seem drastic,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; but in reality, what is going to cause CT to fail and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; how often will this happen?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; There may be mitigating actions that could be taken to re-establish</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; certain sessions. But these decisions are must be driven by </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the policy</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; of the network administration (explicit or implicity), and comply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; with the security, resource management and accounting requirements</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; for the network. Hopefully, none of these mitigating </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; actions requires</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; more over-the-air signalling.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I agreed with everything you say below, except one thing:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CT can only transfer whatever QoS state that is usable at the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; newAR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; If the new network is using a different QoS technology with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; different</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS parameters, then I am not sure if CT by itself can do</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; the job, unless</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; you add your own mapping functionality.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; This would be an example where the new AR sends a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; notification to the MN so that the MN can take</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; appropriate action (for instance, attempt to</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hello,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; establishment</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; should be outside the scope of seamoby..</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol. The main application that you are referring to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; primarily</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; arises out of a perceived need to determine at the MN the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; best link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; layer to handover over to when inter-technology handovers are</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; involved.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; discovery</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; choice of channels available; for intra-technology</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; handovers, there</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; are many, many reasons why this &quot;choice&quot; may not be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; available).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; NSIS involvement</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; during/after a handover. John has stated that this is not the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; intention</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; (please correct me if I have this wrong John), in which</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; case I think</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 5.1.2 needs to be clarified.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS for an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; establishing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; role</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; and clearly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; handover is a dynamic situation that could cause the QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; provided to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; change.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have been told there is no issue, but here's a frightening</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; scenario:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - a handover takes place, and context transfer</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; has been used</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; move the QoS context to the new routers (by the</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CT this could be intra-, or inter- technology. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Some of us</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; believe</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that for &quot;seamless&quot; handovers, the context will be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; available at</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; routers before the first packets need to be forwarded.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; This</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; implies</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that there is a relationship, probabilistic</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; perhaps, between</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the handover process and the target ARs for CT.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; for a more &quot;seamless&quot; handover, the MN should</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; chose an AR that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; has received the appropriate context; if not, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; then what?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - NSIS kicks in and starts re-negotiating QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; because of changes</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; introduced by the handover;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; How do these three protocols interact to produce predictable</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; outcomes?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Or, perhaps, the question is, how do the functional entities</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; associated</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; with the three protocols interact before, during and</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; If it the interaction is within the functional entities, the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; respective</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; wg's could declare the issue out of scope, but this</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; approach does not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; sit well with me, for it seems to defer the problem to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; the people who</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; have to implement this &quot;stuff&quot;.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to whether</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery protocol).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy.</FONT>

Yes and no.

Suppose the MN is expecting CT to be performed and it is not because the
new AR can't interpret the context.
The old AR may discover this via CAR, but if there is no way to
communicate it to the MN, then the MN can't know to perform the
signaling from scratch on the new AR.  One could either inform the MN
beforehand to do the signaling, as is done with FMIPv6/BETH, or signal
the MN on the new AR.

For dynamic failures, such as when the AR runs out of Gold Class
service, the signaling could only be done afterwards.

Rajeev:

  A user starts up an application that requests a "gold service".
The protocol stack (perhaps an NSIS protocol stack) sends in a
request from MN to AN for gold service". A handover occurs, and 
(according to your scenario), the QoS context transfer fails (for some 
inexplicable reason). Some entity (the CT protocol stack according to 
your proposal) sends an indication to the MN that the QoS context transfer 
has failed (according to your proposal). How does the MN know what to do 
with this notice? The MN has to understand:
    
   - what a handover is at the IP level
   - what an IP context transfer is
   - that QoS context is (sometimes) transferred separately from other
     context
   - what the nature of the failure was, and thus, what action to take.
   - how and with what entity to initiate QoS re-negotiation.

  The knowledge for all of the above is either explicitly or implicitly
built into the MN. If the intent were for the MN to receive back a message 
that indicating "Gold service not available" then this is simply a session
disconnect. If the intent is for the MN to be told that "the QoS associated
with Gold service" has failed, then the MN has to know that Gold service
is actually a combination of features (AAA, security, HC), and to initiate 
negotiation, it has to be able to talk to the individual network entities
- entities which may not even exist within a given network (e.g. a provision
model).

 So, how is the MN ignorant of CT? Service models?

 Keep in mind, according to the CT requirements, CT does not know what
is contained in the data chunks it transports. Thus, at best, it can
only forward to the MN that data chunk or another, opaque data chunk.
Even this capability is a major modification to what should be
a simple state machine for the CT protocol.

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Rajeev:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; A user starts up an application that requests a &quot;gold service&quot;.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>The protocol stack (perhaps an NSIS protocol stack) sends in a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>request from MN to AN for gold service&quot;. A handover occurs, and </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>(according to your scenario), the QoS context transfer fails (for some </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>inexplicable reason). Some entity (the CT protocol stack according to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>your proposal) sends an indication to the MN that the QoS context transfer </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>has failed (according to your proposal). How does the MN know what to do </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>with this notice? The MN has to understand:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; - what a handover is at the IP level</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; - what an IP context transfer is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; - that QoS context is (sometimes) transferred separately from other</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; context</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; - what the nature of the failure was, and thus, what action to take.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; - how and with what entity to initiate QoS re-negotiation.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; The knowledge for all of the above is either explicitly or implicitly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>built into the MN. If the intent were for the MN to receive back a message </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>that indicating &quot;Gold service not available&quot; then this is simply a session</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>disconnect. If the intent is for the MN to be told that &quot;the QoS associated</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>with Gold service&quot; has failed, then the MN has to know that Gold service</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>is actually a combination of features (AAA, security, HC), and to initiate </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>negotiation, it has to be able to talk to the individual network entities</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>- entities which may not even exist within a given network (e.g. a provision</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>model).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;So, how is the MN ignorant of CT? Service models?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;Keep in mind, according to the CT requirements, CT does not know what</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>is contained in the data chunks it transports. Thus, at best, it can</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>only forward to the MN that data chunk or another, opaque data chunk.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Even this capability is a major modification to what should be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>a simple state machine for the CT protocol.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; In order for the MN to &quot;recreate the context&quot;, the MN would</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; have to understand the semantics of Context transfer, etc.,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; The MN does not have to know the CT semantics.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; It only needs to understand a notification message</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that provides the error condition related to its</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; context.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; and, more important, there would have to be a protocol or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; protocols that would allow the MN to recreate contexts at an AR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; I doubt that the latter is going to happen (e.g. authentication).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Well, the MN should use whatever protocol was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; used that established the context in the first place,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; including for authentication.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; IF and when a CT fails, the easiest way to &quot;recreate&quot; context</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; is for the sessions to be dropped. This may seem drastic,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; but in reality, what is going to cause CT to fail and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; how often will this happen?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; This is a drastic idea! I think we can do better.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; For one thing, you still have connectivity which</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; you could use to notify the MN so that the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; can resort to re-establishing contexts (or not). Besides,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; CT is a protocol, and like any other protocol has</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; error cases and failure modes. There must be a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; notification message that provides protocol</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; robustness.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; An example that has been brought up is where</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the transferred context is not useful, either</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; partially or entirely. You would like to notify</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the MN when this happens.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; There may be mitigating actions that could be taken to re-establish</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; certain sessions. But these decisions are must be driven by </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the policy</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; of the network administration (explicit or implicity), and comply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; with the security, resource management and accounting requirements</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; for the network. Hopefully, none of these mitigating </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; actions requires</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; more over-the-air signalling.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; And, why are these any better when CT fails compared</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to notifying a MN ? Seems to me that a notification message</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; would not encumber any of the above overheads. You</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; leave it up to the MN.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I agreed with everything you say below, except one thing:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CT can only transfer whatever QoS state that is usable at the</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; If the new network is using a different QoS technology with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; different</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS parameters, then I am not sure if CT by itself can do</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; the job, unless</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; you add your own mapping functionality.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; This would be an example where the new AR sends a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; notification to the MN so that the MN can take</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; appropriate action (for instance, attempt to</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hello,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; well, if the issue is QoS establishment after handover,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - CT is applicable for establishing QoS state at the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; - if further signaling is desired beyond the AR, NSIS may</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; consider it. I don't see how _signaling_ for QoS </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; establishment</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; beyond AR is relevant for seamoby.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CAR _discovery_ could exchange QoS capability as one of the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; parameters that might then be fed to a selection algorithm. Any</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; signaling for actually establishing QoS itself beyond the AR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; should be outside the scope of seamoby..</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a point of clarification, but as I understand CARD (and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I don't understand it well), it is not a QoS negotiation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol. The main application that you are referring to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; primarily</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; arises out of a perceived need to determine at the MN the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; best link</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; layer to handover over to when inter-technology handovers are</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; involved.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; It can be applied to intra-technology handovers, but the value</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; that situation is highly questionable (e.g. since it is a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; discovery</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; protocol, the implication is that the purpose is to determine</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; choice of channels available; for intra-technology</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; handovers, there</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; are many, many reasons why this &quot;choice&quot; may not be </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; available).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a requirement, 5.1.2, which seems to imply</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; NSIS involvement</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; during/after a handover. John has stated that this is not the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; intention</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; (please correct me if I have this wrong John), in which</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; case I think</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 5.1.2 needs to be clarified.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; Specifically, is NSIS to be used to negotiated new </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS for an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; existing flow after a handover, or is it specifically for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; establishing</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS for a new flow? I don't think the answer is boolean: the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; role</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; of NSIS in QoS re-negotiation is still open, I believe,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; and clearly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; handover is a dynamic situation that could cause the QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; provided to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; change.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have been told there is no issue, but here's a frightening</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; to</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hi Sharif:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to whether</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery protocol).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I have a question for clarification.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I think it was stated that NSIS should only be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; concerned with the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; establishment of QoS after handoff.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; This is inconvienent with respect to IP-level QoS</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; negotiation, which ideally</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; should be done before handoff has taken place.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; QoS negotiation is in the current requirements draft.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; So, NSIS signaling protocol development should be concerned</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; with activity</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; before handoff occurs.</FONT>

A nit, but the MN does not expect CT. The MN expects continuous
service (i.e. seamless service), and knows nothing about how it is 
supported (it could be provisioned).

I understand these scenarios, but I do not understand what they have
to do with CT. CT has never intended to be an MN signalling protocol.
Let me try a counter example: the service authorization fails. Would
a CT message saying the AA context transfer failed be of much use
to the MN? No, because the problem wasn't with the context, it was with
a disconnect between the service request and authorization profile for
that MN. 

There is a need for a "handover failure" indication message to the
MN (indicating full or partial handover failure), but this message should
be part of a different protocol from CT.

I concur with Cedric's observations. 
 
I think that there is still confusion as to where CAR leaves off and NSIS
begins. 
If CAR does QoS negotiation, then will it not require much of the same
signalling 
semantics and syntax as the NSIS solution requires to establish QoS? Is this

redundancy necessary?
 
Also, while I keep thinking I that understand where CT ends and CAR/NSIS
begin,
this think is constantly challenged by proposals such as the one made
recently
to have CT signal service feature incompatibilities/transfer failures. 
 
How many signalling protocols does one need to create and maintain QoS???
Wouldn't it be preferably to have "a" context transfer protocol and "a"
QoS signalling protocol and "a" discovery protocol?
 
We are not (as far as I know) talking about alternative solutions here, but
rather 
three protocols that may often be used together, hopefully with consistent
results.
 
Gary

John, 

just one question:

john.loughney@nokia.com <mailto:john.loughney@nokia.com>  wrote:


Hi all,

Just to follow on to Hemant's comment:


There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as to whether 
this QoS negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR 
discovery protocol). 

IMHO it should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR 
discovery is supposed to identify candidate access routers 
for handoff and QoS is an important property for candidacy. 


CAR discovery may be used to select handoff targets with
correct QoS support / capabilities.  Context Transfer (CT)
can be used with the handoff procedure to ensure proper
QoS state gets transfered to the new access router.


how does the CAR know whether or not it is able to provide the QoS
for the flows of the MN. If the question is QoS on the MN-CAR link,
then it is easy, but what if the question is on the CAR-CN side?

It seems to me that in Seamoby, both CARD and CT could act as triggers
to NSIS (QI I guess). CARD to assess whether the CAR-CN is available,
using NSIS as a probing mechanism, and CT to make the NAR-CN QoS
re-establishment.




If there is anyone interested in this work, please let me
know.  The SeaMoby chairs asked me to see if NSIS can provide
them any information about QoS needs.

Then both CARD and CT would need NSIS input/interaction...
Cheers,

Cedric.




thanks,
John

Can anyone offer an explaining of how or why CT would add significantly
to the already unreliable physics of handover?

What failure modes for CT would be noticeable above the unavoidable 
rate of handover failures due the vagaries of wireless coverage and 
wireless link layer performance????

If CT fails, then the handover fails. It is that simple. If CT were
to fail with every 2nd handover attempt, then there would be a problem.
But, I cannot seriously see CT failing more then every one in a million
handover attempts, or less.

CT should not be attempted if there is an incompatibility between source
and destination ARs. And, I HAD thought that it was the purpose of CAR
to identify those incompatibilities and thus avoid doing CT when it is
clear it would fail. How to mitigate those incompatibles is not a
CT issue, it is a service adaptation issue, which can be resolved in
a number of ways, some of which would imply signalled negotiation either
between the ARs or between the ARs and the MN.

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Can anyone offer an explaining of how or why CT would =
add significantly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>to the already unreliable physics of =
handover?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>What failure modes for CT would be noticeable above =
the unavoidable </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>rate of handover failures due the vagaries of =
wireless coverage and </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>wireless link layer performance????</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>If CT fails, then the handover fails. It is that =
simple. If CT were</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>to fail with every 2nd handover attempt, then there =
would be a problem.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>But, I cannot seriously see CT failing more then =
every one in a million</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>handover attempts, or less.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>CT should not be attempted if there is an =
incompatibility between source</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>and destination ARs. And, I HAD thought that it was =
the purpose of CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>to identify those incompatibilities and thus avoid =
doing CT when it is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>clear it would fail. How to mitigate those =
incompatibles is not a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>CT issue, it is a service adaptation issue, which =
can be resolved in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>a number of ways, some of which would imply =
signalled negotiation either</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>between the ARs or between the ARs and the MN. =

Hi Anders,

> view that there should be a single service model for the Internet".
> One can ask oneself, has anyone of these statements truly changed?

IMO after considering all the DiffServ work: Yes.
Refering to the first point:
In fact, DiffServ routers are not required to reserve resources.
Bookkeeping of resources can also be done by other dedicated entities
such as Domain Managers/BBs, thus removing resource management and signaling
burden from routers. However, routers have to be configured, but only
"first-hop routers" (or sometimes also "last-hop routers") per micro-flow.
Boundary routers usually have only profiles per aggregates and interior
routers normally don't need profiles (they have a rather static configured 
resource partitioning for their PHBs) and thus no flow-specific states.
Second point:
While it may be really important to have globally well-known services
in the future, it is a good idea to let those things evolve by market
demands etc. For the near future, it makes perfectly sense that ISPs
provide their own locally defined services to their customers at first,
because of easier management.

I'll take all six... :-)

This is still difficult. But NSIS should be flexible enough to
let those things evolve indepently and thus it should provide hooks 
for an AAA architecture, so that reservation requests can be authenticated 
and accounted.

As I already stated: NSIS should support negotiation of
service parameter _values_, which can be easily supported by a 
simple request/response dialogue when the response can also contain
a service object with the negotiated parameter values.
Service or service parameter negotiation can be added later by
specialized negotiation protocols.

I think DiffServ also provides the answers here. In the data path, we
don't really need a flow-id field. However, in the control path we
need the definition of a flow (at least when we want to support
micro-flows with end-to-end QoS). Therefore, we specifically must pay 
attention to scalability in the control plane.

I found it always a good idea to separate between the initiator of
a reservation request and the actual data senders and receivers.
It should be possible that the initiator is either the sender
or the receiver or maybe also a third party. Looking at DiffServ,
the admission control has usually to start from the sender, because
traffic conditioning elements have to be adapted in a suitable
order. However, there are also ways to have receiver-initiated
reservations for unicast and multicast.

In my view, routing has to be considered, because the resource management 
must have knowledge of the actual data path. But NSIS should be independent 
of the used routing protocols and allow to use traditional routing
protocols as well as QoS routing protocols etc. However, I see a strong
requirement to have really stable paths which don't change too often.

QoS routing isn't that easy, but may be available in the future...
so we should not rely on its availability, but see it more as a 
future improvement of resource usage...

There are differences to route changes, especially during handover,
e.g., resources for a new path may be requested before the actual
route change happens.

Consider the DiffServ architecture: one needs flow-specific state in 
routers, but not in _every_ router along the path, usually only in first-hop
routers, so this should be manageable. By using aggregation also in the control
plane, we don't need flow-specific states in every element along the (data or
control) path.

I think that the DiffServ architecture provides answers to most of
the questions.

Rajeev: 

  A user starts up an application that requests a "gold service". 
The protocol stack (perhaps an NSIS protocol stack) sends in a 
request from MN to AN for gold service". A handover occurs, and 
(according to your scenario), the QoS context transfer fails (for some 
inexplicable reason). Some entity (the CT protocol stack according to 
your proposal) sends an indication to the MN that the QoS context transfer 
has failed (according to your proposal). How does the MN know what to do 
with this notice? The MN has to understand: 
    
   - what a handover is at the IP level 
   - what an IP context transfer is 
   - that QoS context is (sometimes) transferred separately from other 
     context 
   - what the nature of the failure was, and thus, what action to take. 
   - how and with what entity to initiate QoS re-negotiation. 

  The knowledge for all of the above is either explicitly or implicitly 
built into the MN. If the intent were for the MN to receive back a message 
that indicating "Gold service not available" then this is simply a session 
disconnect. If the intent is for the MN to be told that "the QoS associated 
with Gold service" has failed, then the MN has to know that Gold service 
is actually a combination of features (AAA, security, HC), and to initiate 
negotiation, it has to be able to talk to the individual network entities 
- entities which may not even exist within a given network (e.g. a provision

model). 

 So, how is the MN ignorant of CT? Service models? 

 Keep in mind, according to the CT requirements, CT does not know what 
is contained in the data chunks it transports. Thus, at best, it can 
only forward to the MN that data chunk or another, opaque data chunk. 
Even this capability is a major modification to what should be 
a simple state machine for the CT protocol.

By "re-create" I meant the MN establishes a context
through feature-specific signaling, e.g., QoS signaling. I think
I described this in the associated posting.

you may have missed my response.. Anyway, you would
like to be able to do CT without assuming CAR support.
When you do CT and the target AR does not support
the feature or only partially supports it (IPv6/UDP/RTP
versus IPv6/UDP only header compression) , that's an
example where you want the MN notified.

I concur with Cedric's observations. 
 
I think that there is still confusion as to where CAR leaves off and NSIS
begins. 
If CAR does QoS negotiation, then will it not require much of the same
signalling 
semantics and syntax as the NSIS solution requires to establish QoS? Is this

redundancy necessary?
 
Also, while I keep thinking I that understand where CT ends and CAR/NSIS
begin,
this think is constantly challenged by proposals such as the one made
recently
to have CT signal service feature incompatibilities/transfer failures. 
 
How many signalling protocols does one need to create and maintain QoS???
Wouldn't it be preferably to have "a" context transfer protocol and "a"
QoS signalling protocol and "a" discovery protocol?
 
We are not (as far as I know) talking about alternative solutions here, but
rather 
three protocols that may often be used together, hopefully with consistent
results.
 
Gary

John, 

just one question:

john.loughney@nokia.com wrote:

Hi all,Just to follow on to Hemant's comment:
There is currently a debate going on in Seamoby as to whether this QoS
negotiation be covered by NSIS or Seamoby (CAR discovery protocol). IMHO it
should be covered by CAR discovery and not NSIS. CAR discovery is supposed
to identify candidate access routers for handoff and QoS is an important
property for candidacy. 
CAR discovery may be used to select handoff targets withcorrect QoS support
/ capabilities.  Context Transfer (CT)can be used with the handoff procedure
to ensure properQoS state gets transfered to the new access router.

how does the CAR know whether or not it is able to provide the QoS
for the flows of the MN. If the question is QoS on the MN-CAR link,
then it is easy, but what if the question is on the CAR-CN side?

It seems to me that in Seamoby, both CARD and CT could act as triggers
to NSIS (QI I guess). CARD to assess whether the CAR-CN is available,
using NSIS as a probing mechanism, and CT to make the NAR-CN QoS
re-establishment.

If there is anyone interested in this work, please let meknow.  The SeaMoby
chairs asked me to see if NSIS can providethem any information about QoS
needs.
Then both CARD and CT would need NSIS input/interaction...
Cheers,

Cedric.

Can anyone offer an explaining of how or why CT would add significantly 
to the already unreliable physics of handover? 

What failure modes for CT would be noticeable above the unavoidable 
rate of handover failures due the vagaries of wireless coverage and 
wireless link layer performance???? 

If CT fails, then the handover fails. It is that simple. If CT were 
to fail with every 2nd handover attempt, then there would be a problem. 
But, I cannot seriously see CT failing more then every one in a million 
handover attempts, or less. 

CT should not be attempted if there is an incompatibility between source 
and destination ARs. And, I HAD thought that it was the purpose of CAR 
to identify those incompatibilities and thus avoid doing CT when it is 
clear it would fail. How to mitigate those incompatibles is not a 
CT issue, it is a service adaptation issue, which can be resolved in 
a number of ways, some of which would imply signalled negotiation either 
between the ARs or between the ARs and the MN.

Gary

Hello Gary,

I have $0.02 to add to the discussion:

> Can anyone offer an explaining of how or why CT would add significantly
> to the already unreliable physics of handover?

Since I took physics in college, I can answer this.  It would not
add significantly to handover unreliability.

> What failure modes for CT would be noticeable above the unavoidable
> rate of handover failures due the vagaries of wireless coverage and
> wireless link layer performance????

Congestion at intermediate routing points comes to mind.
Just because two access points are both within range of a mobile node
does not mean that they are neighbors to each other.  They may even
be attached to completely different physical media.

> to fail with every 2nd handover attempt, then there would be a problem.

I quite disagree with this statement.  It depends on very many things.
For instance, we have to be able to run CT without CARD.  So, the
destination access router might not offer header compression at all,
for instance.  Thus, the handover would succeed, but the context transfer
(or, part of it) would fail.

> handover attempts, or less.

Cool!  This could be good news.

> CT should not be attempted if there is an incompatibility between source
> and destination ARs.

As noted above, I quite disagree with this statement.

>                       And, I HAD thought that it was the purpose of CAR

But, we have to be allowed to do CT without ever running CARD.
For instance, we have reactive mode.

>                        How to mitigate those incompatibles is not a

Sometimes, the service cannot be adapted, and the feature context is
just plain lost, because the feature is unavailable.  Suppose, for example,
that the contexts transferred include header compression, QoS, security,
and other features.  Now suppose that _only_ the security context can be
transferred.  That's still better than nothing!  Maybe the QoS application
will have to terminate, or go into degraded mode, but the other applications
that need security will still be able to go on undisturbed.  Why not?

Regards,
Charlie P.

PS. I relucantly left NSIS on the CC: list, but shouldn't it be pruned?

This is wishful thinking.  Lets finish the seamless handover over IP before
we get into "gold class service".  Convince me we have done just the
basics!

Yes, stay connected to multiple ARs.  You will need it anyway for
log normal shadow fading in outdoor environments.  People on this
list don't realize that frequencies are going up and these things will
deployed
outdoors where shadow fading is the killer.  Its not going to be one big
cell
after another.  Its going to be connections two or three crappy cells and
making the best use of them.

Don't you agree that there will need to be several target ARs all receiving
the context
simultaneously, possibly via an anycast addressing structure?

Reword as, for example, suppose that QoS context is transferred to "a newly
added AR", but the new AR can not interpret it.  The MN could choose to skip
using this AR completely.

Define "gold service"?  Define SeaMoby?  What on earth are we talking about.
The starting place
is seamless handover and always has been.  If we win that battle the rest is
relatively easy.  Why do
we focus on the chrome when we  need to work on the engine?

>The protocol stack (perhaps an NSIS protocol stack) sends in a
>request from MN to AN for gold service".

Nice.  Why don't we get UDP/TCP/SCTP to work first?

Gary,

Well, clearly we have a disagreement here. If it is not the CT protocol,
then I do not know how else it should be done. Basically, if the router
can't for some reason use the context to complete the handover, I
believe it has an obligation to inform the MN so that the MN can
recover.

Gary,

When you say "handover failure" I think Mobile IP, and there is already
some signaling available in FMIPv6/BETH to do this. This signaling does
not extend to attributes of the IP service like whether or not the MN
can connect to the network, what class of QoS service it gets, and any
other security, etc.. There is currently no way to signal that the
network expects the MN to reestablish these, except to say that the MN
has entered a new AAA domain and should therefore perform network entry
from scratch. This seems a little too heavyweight to me.

Gary,

OK, I think I am beginning to see your point. The CT protocol is just a
container, if a particular feature context fails, it is up to the code
handling the feature context to actually perform the notification of the
MN. The CT code doesn't do particular features.

I think there is still the case of a failure in interpretation by the
new AR, or even a failure in CT itself, like it got lost on the way.

Sure, in IPv6. But there is still no guarantee that the transfer will

Right, but it would have to know that so it could move to a different AR
(if it had a choice).

Hi Gary,

As I have been suggesting, perhaps it would be good to document these concerns
in an Internet Draft - emails can only go so far.

> Also, while I keep thinking I that understand where CT ends and CAR/NSIS begin,

My personal opinion (in this area) is that SeaMoby works on solutions that focus 
on what happens in & during a handover between ARs and NSIS is more focused on 
the end-to-edge or end-to-end signaling path.

The best way forward for this is to document what those needs are.  Could you create
a strawman draft?

Hi Sven

I agree with you, on introducing the term "QoS Receiver", however,
I would very much appreciate if 
the sentence:
 "QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside 
  a QoS ..."

is changed into:

""QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at an end host, an edge of 
  or inside a QoS ..."

Best Regards,
Georgios

Subject: [NSIS] proposals related to NSIS WG draft


Hi all,

As an outcome of this morning's NSIS meeting, we propose the following 
detailed additions to the WG draft.

1. Terminology

- QoS Controller: Network entity responsible for interpreting and 
implementing the signaled QoS in the network. Failure to do so implies an 
admission control decision. It can only be triggered by another NSIS entity 
of the same instance (a QoS Initiator or another QoS Controller).

- QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside a QoS 
domain, responsible for terminating an instance of an NSIS protocol. It has 
the additional functionality that it may initiate an acknowledgment towards 
the QI and that it may trigger another NSIS entity (QoS Initiator or QoS 
Controller of another instance of the NSIS protocol)

- QoS Initiator: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside a QoS 
domain, responsible for initiating an instance of an NSIS QoS signaling 
protocol. It may be triggered by the application layer, by the termination 
of a local QoS signaling mechanism (possibly another instance of NSIS 
signaling) or by a QoS Controller of another of a client instance of an NSIS 
protocol. It provides a mapping between the QoS parameters contained in the 
trigger and the QoS parameters in the instance of the NSIS protocol for 
which is serves as QoS Initiator.

2. Use cases/scenarios: 2 are available from the draft-buchli (sections 4.1 
and 4.2)

3. Requirements

* New requirements
- in section MUST support priority
The priority of a flow is essentially decoupled from its QoS requirements. 
Therefore the protocol MUST support priority. As a consequence, it MUST 
support preemption of traffic flows in case of congestion or failure. A 
preemption action MAY trigger an attempt to resetup the request by means of 
another instance of an NSIS signaling protocol.

- in section 5.3: MAY support grouping of microflows (possibly only for 
feedback)
As a consequence of the optimization for the interactive multimedia 
services, the signaling should allow one unique request for several micro 
flows having the same origination and destination IP addresses. This is 
usually the case for multimedia SIP calls where the voice and video micro 
flows follow the same path. This grouping of requests allows optimization of 
the QoS processing. Note that this may be detrimental for the call setup 
time. The use of grouping for microflows may be restricted to teardown 
and/or notification messages when call setup time is a concern.

- in section 5.5: Protocol content
The per-flow QoS requests are mapped onto the bandwidth pipe, which is 
specified by an SLS. These pipes may provide statistical guarantees such as 
delay and packet loss bounds (depending on the QoS class). In order to 
invoke per-flow QoS services the only parameter needed is a required rate, a 
means to identify the data path (mapping on SLS) and eventually a 
reservation identifier.

1) Microflow/reservation description
The signaling should allow the request to describe the microflow whose QoS 
would be guaranteed by giving at least the source and destination IP 
addresses of the media flow. In case the QC is stateful (per microflow) 
there may be a need to include a unique reservation identifier (e.g. QI 
identifier+counter) such that in case of e.g. a tear down message the 
reservation can be easily identified in the QC.

2) Traffic descriptor
The required peak rate must be signaled. Optionally the traffic parameters 
may be expressed in terms of token bucket parameters (similar to the TSpec 
in RSVP).

- in section 5.10: Interworking with provisioning

* Requirements for which to change priority or formulation
- MUST support signalling to entities outside the data path (reformulation)

- MUST NOT be adversely impacted by mobility aspects (applicable for 
end-to-end)
A QoS controller in an end-to-end instance of an NSIS protocol MUST NOT be 
adversely affected by mobility issues. Any mobility scenario should be 
tackled by other uses of an NSIS protocol and is outside the realm of an 
end-to-end application of the NSIS protocol.

Hi Anders

Sorry for the delay on sending this reply.
Regarding your proposal on scalability.
Actually I agree, but I would very much appreciate if you could 
change the following sentence:
" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) on devices .."

into:

" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) and the number of reservation states
on devices .."

Best Regards,
Georgios

Subject: [NSIS] proposal to add requirement text


All,
 
off line discussions revealed that the scalability sections (5.6) could be slightly updated. 
 
I suggest wording along these lines: 
 
The nsis architecture should give the ability to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth consumption and signaling intensity) on devices where it is needed. This can be achieved by many different methods, for example message aggregation, by ignoring signaling message, header compression or minimizing functionality. The architecture may choose any of these methods as long as the requirement is met. 
 
(the reasoning behind the words are the following, if I have the ability to control the load the protocol(s) generate in a singel device, the protocol will "scale". And the words does not mandate any particular solution)
 
A related requirement that was discussed was transport quality for the signaling protocol where I propose the following text. 
 
The nsis architecture should allow the network operator to assign the nsis protocol messages a certain transport quality. As signaling opens up for possible denial-of-service attacks, this requirement gives the network operator a mean, but also the obligation, to trade-off between signaling latency and the impact (from the signaling messages) on devices within his/her network. From protocol design this requirement states that the protocol messages should be detectable, at least where the control and assignment of the messages priority is done.   
 
Anders

The determination of RSVP parameters to achieve the requested QoS is the
task of the QoS control devices. It is my impression that how these
parameters are derived are out of scope for NSIS? Is this true?

Also, can someone please explain where the entities QoS Controller and QoS
Initiator are located with respect to RSVP protocol. I.e. are they only at
the edge of the network, or are they to be present at every RSVP node along
the transmission path?

Sharif.

--------------InterScan_NT_MIME_Boundary
Content-Type: text/plain;

dear all,

well, this is quite a thread to come back from a short holiday to.
I attempt to make a summary (partly for my own benefit):

==================
1. pre-emption (let's call it 'session pre-emption'?) is a useful and sometimes mandatory capability within networks (examples: emergency call handling; operation after capacity loss e.g. due to partial network failure).

2. only the network can decide what sessions to pre-empt in favour of what other sessions.

3. QoS signalling has to carry enough information to enable the network to make this decision (and that information might have to be authenticated or otherwise processed to classify the session securely); however, this information does not need to be visible to the signalling protocol.

4. if a session is pre-empted, the network might (should?) want to tell affected users that their QoS has been degraded.
==================

If this is complete, the implications for NSIS would seem to be:
A) from (3), the QoS data carried has to include particular information - but since this is opaque to us anyway, there is no new requirement here.
B) in support of (4), the signalling protocol has to be able to send an asynchronous message about a QoS change - but I think we also have this already (for other reasons).

So, no new requirements. But maybe some more pointers about how important (B) is and where in the network. (But note: (B) isn't needed to support pre-emption, it's just a side effect of doing pre-emption, so maybe the added significance is not great.)

I've thought hard in the past but can't think of any new requirements for NSIS from this topic. I'd be interested to see any.
If this method of reasoning is useful, maybe it is helpful to capture it in the requirements appendix as a scenario ("here's how a pre-emption event is handled and what NSIS capabilities are used to do so"), or is that a framework issue?

robert h.
now to the handover one ...

Then why should we worry about it? The ultimate question is, given
that you detect a failure, can you make a significant improvement
on the handover performance?

Could you not avoid this with traffic engineering? It would seem to me
to be a bad choice, regardless, to throw your CT traffic in with your
BE traffic. The impact on delay of transfer alone would be enough reason
to provide special treatment for CT. And, if the CT is failing because
of congestion, why would any signalling messages indicating failure and
attempting recovery not also be congested?

Ok. I wasn't clear. I did not mean to imply that all handovers require CT.
I meant that if a handover of a flow requires context to work, and the
CT fails, then the flow handover fails. Since this is, as you agree, a
rare event insignificant amongst all the other reasons handovers fail,
why worry about it?

I am as nervous as anyone in pushing requirements onto the people
who engineer a working network. There job is hard enough. However,
I just do not see running signalling and signalling related traffic
such as CT, through the same congested paths as BE traffic. Even for
wireless ad-hoc networks, I would presume that there will be a need
identified for some special traffic treatment over the air to facilitate
signalling between nodes.

I don't see the relationship between your disagreement and
your notes above. 

If CARD is present, then the network should know ahead of time
what the capabilities of a target router are, and what mitigating
action needs to be taken to effect a useful CT.

If CARD is not present, then the solution is to configure the
network appropriately. This may include facilities at ARs
for context translation ("may" - I think this is getting ahead
of the current state of the art).

The only other scenario I can think of is where the network configuration
is dynamic, and thus the capabilities of the ARs can change dynamically.
This is one reason why I mentioned wireless ad-hoc networks. It is not
clear to me that we should be attempting to solve this very complex
problem within SEAMOBY, as there are any number of assumptions that
must be made to make the problem tractable.

Reactive mode does not mean no CARD. 

What you are suggesting is a collection of ARs with different capabilities,
unknown during configuration time, and where CARD is not used. I would
propose
that this is an unrealistic scenario.

Said another way, I propose that if the capabilities of the ARs are known
and unchanging, the network can be engineered for CT without CARD to work.
Note that this statement applies to wireless ad-hoc networks and mobile
ARs as well as fixed, wired ARs.

If the capabilities of the ARs at the time of a handover are not
pre-determinable,
then I suggest that this is where CARD is used with the greatest import.

Any other scenarios can be deemed poor network engineering practice.

Sure, but what does this have to do with CT? There may be many reasons
why a particular feature might fail, including malformed, missing or
incompatible context. My position is this is not a ct issue, but rather
an issue with the service entities themselves, which may mean the service
entities perform some mitigating action, including informing the MN.

Example: if the security context transfer fails, should a CT entity inform
the MN, or should it be the responsibility of the security service entities?
I think the latter.

Perhaps. I haven't seen any complaints from NSIS as yet. I think some of
us are trying to figure out what the respective roles of each protocol are
and, most important, the inter-relationships. E.g. if QoS re-negotiation is
to happen as a result of handover, in my view, it makes sense that we should
use the capabilities of the NSIS protocol to do this re-negotiation, rather
then replicate similar functionality in CARD or CT. The difficulty I suspect
with this, is that none of the protocols exist yet, so it is hard for many
of us to see what the trade-offs are.

Perhaps the answer is to decide now where the divisions between the problem
spaces (via requirements and objectives), and worry about trade-offs later.
(Requirements drafts are not legal documents: they can be revised with
sufficient
reason.)

Cheers,
Gary

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The only other scenario I can think of is where the network configuration</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>is dynamic, and thus the capabilities of the ARs can change dynamically.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>This is one reason why I mentioned wireless ad-hoc networks. It is not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>clear to me that we should be attempting to solve this very complex</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>problem within SEAMOBY, as there are any number of assumptions that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>must be made to make the problem tractable.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And, I HAD thought that it was the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; purpose of CAR</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; to identify those incompatibilities and thus avoid doing CT </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; when it is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; clear it would fail.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; But, we have to be allowed to do CT without ever running CARD.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; For instance, we have reactive mode.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Reactive mode does not mean no CARD. </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>What you are suggesting is a collection of ARs with different capabilities,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>unknown during configuration time, and where CARD is not used. I would propose</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>that this is an unrealistic scenario.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Said another way, I propose that if the capabilities of the ARs are known</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and unchanging, the network can be engineered for CT without CARD to work.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Note that this statement applies to wireless ad-hoc networks and mobile</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>ARs as well as fixed, wired ARs.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>If the capabilities of the ARs at the time of a handover are not pre-determinable,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>then I suggest that this is where CARD is used with the greatest import.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Any other scenarios can be deemed poor network engineering practice. </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How to mitigate those incompatibles is not a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; CT issue, it is a service adaptation issue, which can be resolved in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; a number of ways, some of which would imply signalled </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; negotiation either</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; between the ARs or between the ARs and the MN.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Sometimes, the service cannot be adapted, and the feature context is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; just plain lost, because the feature is unavailable.&nbsp; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Suppose, for example,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that the contexts transferred include header compression, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS, security,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; and other features.&nbsp; Now suppose that _only_ the security </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; context can be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; transferred.&nbsp; That's still better than nothing!&nbsp; Maybe the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; QoS application</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; will have to terminate, or go into degraded mode, but the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; other applications</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; that need security will still be able to go on undisturbed.&nbsp; Why not?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Sure, but what does this have to do with CT? There may be many reasons</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>why a particular feature might fail, including malformed, missing or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>incompatible context. My position is this is not a ct issue, but rather</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>an issue with the service entities themselves, which may mean the service</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>entities perform some mitigating action, including informing the MN.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Example: if the security context transfer fails, should a CT entity inform</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>the MN, or should it be the responsibility of the security service entities?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I think the latter.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Regards,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Charlie P.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; PS. I relucantly left NSIS on the CC: list, but shouldn't it </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; be pruned?</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Perhaps. I haven't seen any complaints from NSIS as yet. I think some of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>us are trying to figure out what the respective roles of each protocol are</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and, most important, the inter-relationships. E.g. if QoS re-negotiation is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to happen as a result of handover, in my view, it makes sense that we should</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>use the capabilities of the NSIS protocol to do this re-negotiation, rather</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>then replicate similar functionality in CARD or CT. The difficulty I suspect</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>with this, is that none of the protocols exist yet, so it is hard for many</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>of us to see what the trade-offs are.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Perhaps the answer is to decide now where the divisions between the problem</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>spaces (via requirements and objectives), and worry about trade-offs later.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>(Requirements drafts are not legal documents: they can be revised with sufficient</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>reason.)</FONT>

James:

  Sorry, but I am a bit confused (as usual), are you saying
then that doing these functions with the CT protocol is less
heavyweight, and thus preferable?

  The default action, always, is for the session to be dropped.
This will ultimately force the MN to take action (oh, ok, some
MNs will simply halt and catch fire). Anything more then dropping
the session is simply to improve the handover performance under
various conditions. Typically, when one gets into exception scenarios,
the solutions become too complex or degrade performance too much 
to be justified against the potential gains. A classic example is
run time type/value checking in C/C++. 

  If there are no recovery mechanisms for the potential faults 
you describe, then does it make sense to build one into CT?
On the other hand, if these mechanisms are built into the handover
algorithm, or into the session support, then putting it into CT
would be redundant, would it not?

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; As I outlined in one of my other posts, why would you</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; perform CT to an</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; AR that did not have the necessary capabilities. Is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; this actually</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; about</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; CAR failure??</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; Yes and no.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; Suppose the MN is expecting CT to be performed and it is not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; because the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; A nit, but the MN does not expect CT. The MN expects continuous</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; service (i.e. seamless service), and knows nothing about how it is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; supported (it could be provisioned).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; new AR can't interpret the context.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; The old AR may discover this via CAR, but if there is no way to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; communicate it to the MN, then the MN can't know to perform the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; signaling from scratch on the new AR.&nbsp; One could either inform the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; beforehand to do the signaling, as is done with FMIPv6/BETH, or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; signal</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; the MN on the new AR.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; For dynamic failures, such as when the AR runs out of Gold Class</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; &gt; service, the signaling could only be done afterwards.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; I understand these scenarios, but I do not understand what they have</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; to do with CT. CT has never intended to be an MN signalling </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; protocol.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; Let me try a counter example: the service authorization fails. Would</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; a CT message saying the AA context transfer failed be of much use</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; to the MN? No, because the problem wasn't with the context, it was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; a disconnect between the service request and authorization </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; profile for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; that MN.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; There is a need for a &quot;handover failure&quot; indication message to the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; MN (indicating full or partial handover failure), but this message</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; should</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &gt; be part of a different protocol from CT.</FONT>

John:

  I don't think it as simple as saying that Seamoby focuses on
handover. I agree that NSIS should not be "handover aware", however,
(and this may be explicitly a seamoby issue), CT/CARD should not,
in my view, be performing service re-negotiation. If for no other
reason then the redundant functionality that is implied (and the
difficulty in maintaining the two negotiation protocols).

  I will think about a draft, but I suspect it is premature/overkill.
In my mind, the issue is about which entity controls the QoS offered
to the MN, and is responsible for keeping the MN informed and reacting
to it's requests. In my simple view, that's NSIS (and certainly NOT
CT). 

  The issue from an NSIS point of view, I guess, is what entity in
the framework corresponds to a new AR that is having difficulty providing
QoS support, and how does it invoke an action that includes notification
of the MN?

Your logic within your email is flawed and poorly written, and doesn't support
the conclusion you wrote. Please review what you wrote that I've highlighted
above near the top and tell me how you stated that this information "~ ...has
to include particular (identifying) information (for preemption to properly be
performed)....", yet conclude that it "~...isn't needed....So, no new
requirements."

Robert - you didn't read my email obviously as I stated many networks that have
this capability that NSIS *won't* be an appropriate QOS mechanism for
interfacing with if this is not included...

I am involved within the IEPREP WG (spoke at the Minn meeting - and not about
preemption) and preemption has been a topic of many long threads there.
Preemption has been agreed upon to be optional in many networks, mandatory in
others, while not_practiced or not_allowed in still others. As a result,
preemption will be explicitly mentioned within that WG's Framework and
Requirements IDs in future releases (both are only -00 now).

&gt; ================== <br>
<font size=2>&gt; 1. pre-emption (let's call it 'session pre-emption'?)

&gt; 2. only the network can decide what sessions to pre-empt in <br>
&gt; favour of what other sessions. <br>
<font size=2>&gt; </font><br>
&gt; 3. QoS signalling has to carry enough information to enable <br>
&gt; the network to make this decision (and that information might <br>

<font size=2>&gt; </font><br>

No, I'm saying that "dropping the session" is more heavyweight. And what
do you mean by a session anyway?
IP is connectionless.

I think what you mean is that all feature contexts for the MN revert to
the startup state, namely gone.

My point is, if the MN never finds out about this, then it can't take
any action.

I'm not saying that there should be recovery built into CT. What I am
saying is
that the MN has got to know when it has to redo signaling in order to
reestablish
stuff like it's AAA state or it's QoS state.

We went through this exact conversation on the MIP list with respect to
BETH. The
MN doesn't get involved in handover with BETH, so it needs to be
informed when
BETH handover fails (in practice, we tell it when BETH handover is about
to fail).
Then it can do standard MIP signaling in order to get a care of address.

I'm willing to grant that having CT do feature by feature failure
notification doesn't make sense,
but I still think there needs to be some way to tell the MN that
seamlessness has failed
or is about to fail so it can take the right steps to restart the
original network admission
procedure.

I think this is needed if for no other reason than when the MN reaches
the edge of the operator's
domain, if the operator doesn't have the right business agreements with
the next operator, the MN
has got to know to redo network entry, i.e. AAA from scratch, QoS from
scratch, etc.

Phil:
 
  Yup, Phil, I have studied it. My point was that the unreliability of CT
should not
be noticeable with respect to the relative unreliability of handover. And
the 
latter is far from 100% reliable, even with all the advances.
 
  Of course, one could make CT grossly unreliable, but I contend that it is
easier
to make an information transfer between two (relatively close) nodes in a
wired
network reliable then it is to make anything in wireless more reliable.
 
Cheers,
Gary

Hmm.  Gary have you studied the mechanics (i.e. the physics as you put it)
of 3G aka
CDMA handover?  Why do you say its unreliable?  Make before break won the
battle years
ago.  Why do people in the IETF incessently restrict themselve to legacy
handovers????

Can anyone offer an explaining of how or why CT would add significantly 
to the already unreliable physics of handover? 
What failure modes for CT would be noticeable above the unavoidable 
rate of handover failures due the vagaries of wireless coverage and 
wireless link layer performance???? 
If CT fails, then the handover fails. It is that simple. If CT were 
to fail with every 2nd handover attempt, then there would be a problem. 
But, I cannot seriously see CT failing more then every one in a million 
handover attempts, or less. 
CT should not be attempted if there is an incompatibility between source 
and destination ARs. And, I HAD thought that it was the purpose of CAR 
to identify those incompatibilities and thus avoid doing CT when it is 
clear it would fail. How to mitigate those incompatibles is not a 
CT issue, it is a service adaptation issue, which can be resolved in 
a number of ways, some of which would imply signalled negotiation either 
between the ARs or between the ARs and the MN.

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; Yup, Phil, I have studied it. My point was that the unreliability of CT should not</FONT>

Agreed. It would be better to try and fix things first. The real
question is at what level.

Well...sessions do not require connections. But I have a feeling
we both do not want to open up that can-of-worms debate.

When I say "session", I mean all the collection of services/resources
that have been set up to support an IP flow, QoS, AAA, HC, etc.
If you have a better word, I'll use it.

Ok. Except, that it may be only the feature contexts for a given
microflow. E.g just because a new AR cannot support EF PHB, does
not mean that the BE flows need to be dropped.

My points is that this is not a CT protocol function. There are any
number of failure points for a service feature, and it is the responsibility
of the control entity for that service feature to notify the MN.

see comment above.

But, btw: how does the MN re-establish state without dropping the flow?
E.g. authentication? authorization? does re-establishing EF PHB make
any sense (if you cannot do it within a 100 ms, has the service not
been "dropped" anyway?)

We agree on the first part of these two paragraphs. But, I am confused:
I am not aware of any current facilities within QoS/AAA that allows the MN
to repair AAA/QoS state as opposed to "building it from scratch". Certainly,
protocols can be extended, but then, they can also be extended to allow
for notification.

Consider:

   o CT fails for a specific context

   o CT somehow sends notification that the context for QoS has failed.

   o MN determines (somehow) what this failure message means (again,
consider that
CT can, at best, notify that a particular data chunk failed somehow at the
new AR, 
not why).

   o MN initiates a re-negotiation with the appropriate network entity (AAA
server
perhaps? an QoS Controller perhaps?)

Versus:

   o CT fails for a specific context

   o service feature entity at new AR determines that it is unable to
support 
     one or more of the MN flows either because it does not have the
context,
     or because it cannot support the context

   o new AR determines, perhaps using local policy decisions, what
mitigating
     action can to be taken locally (e.g. downgrade an AF flow to a BE flow
to 
     support forwarding until new negotiations can take place).

                                  - OR -

   o new AR determines, perhaps using local policy decisions, that the
control
     entity for the feature (e.g. the AAA server), needs to be notified
(e.g.
     the service lacks proper authorization), the control entity can then
take
     direct action (e.g. perhaps by some inter-system authorization
exchange).

                                  - OR -

   o new AR determines, perhaps using local policy decisions, that the MN is
     should fix the problem, and sends a notification.

Which scenario appears more flexible, more responsive, and more likely to 
support seamless handovers?

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; respect to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; BETH. The</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; MN doesn't get involved in handover with BETH, so it needs to be</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; informed when</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; BETH handover fails (in practice, we tell it when BETH </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; handover is about</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; to fail).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; Then it can do standard MIP signaling in order to get a care </FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; I'm willing to grant that having CT do feature by feature failure</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; notification doesn't make sense,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; but I still think there needs to be some way to tell the MN that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; seamlessness has failed</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; or is about to fail so it can take the right steps to restart the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; original network admission</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; procedure.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; I think this is needed if for no other reason than when the MN reaches</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the edge of the operator's</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; domain, if the operator doesn't have the right business </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; agreements with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; the next operator, the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; has got to know to redo network entry, i.e. AAA from scratch, QoS from</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; scratch, etc.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>We agree on the first part of these two paragraphs. But, I am confused:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I am not aware of any current facilities within QoS/AAA that allows the MN</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to repair AAA/QoS state as opposed to &quot;building it from scratch&quot;. Certainly,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>protocols can be extended, but then, they can also be extended to allow</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>for notification.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Consider:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o CT fails for a specific context</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o CT somehow sends notification that the context for QoS has failed.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o MN determines (somehow) what this failure message means (again, consider that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>CT can, at best, notify that a particular data chunk failed somehow at the new AR, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>not why).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o MN initiates a re-negotiation with the appropriate network entity (AAA server</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>perhaps? an QoS Controller perhaps?)</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Versus:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o CT fails for a specific context</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o service feature entity at new AR determines that it is unable to support </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; one or more of the MN flows either because it does not have the context,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; or because it cannot support the context</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o new AR determines, perhaps using local policy decisions, what mitigating</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; action can to be taken locally (e.g. downgrade an AF flow to a BE flow to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; support forwarding until new negotiations can take place).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - OR -</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp; o new AR determines, perhaps using local policy decisions, that the control</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; entity for the feature (e.g. the AAA server), needs to be notified (e.g.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the service lacks proper authorization), the control entity can then take</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; direct action (e.g. perhaps by some inter-system authorization exchange).</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - OR -</FONT>

James:

  Robert's email was clear to me, and well stated. He was saying that if
there 
is a requirement for pre-emption, then it can be captured in the data
description 
(hopefully, an opaque TLV data chunk) for the QoS, and there is no need for
a 
change in the requirements for NSIS.

  There may be, and Robert did not address this, a need to change the IETF
definitions
for QoS, iff the intent is to have pre-emption supported as part of the
standard offerings.
E.g. if a pre-emptive EF PHB is required, then the Diff Serv wg must make
the change, not
NSIS.

  In addition, there is no reason why the NSIS protocol cannot carry
network,
and even device specific TLV data chunks. However, the contents of these
data
chunks need not be visible to NSIS - how would the fact that the QoS
contained
a specification for pre-emption change the semantics of the NSIS protocols?
Given
that the answer, as far as I can tell is no, then as long as the NSIS syntax
allows
for the information to be conveyed, it is not necessary to identify the
meaning of
the QoS specification in the NSIS standard because it is not used by NSIS.

  This is a very different approach from SS7, UNI, SSCPS, GSM, UMTS, .... IP
is an
internetworking protocol, and must work across many different networks. NSIS
should
also work across all (predominant) networks. Given the alternative of
defining variants
of the protocol for every network, it is often more productive to define a
generic capability,
and leave the network specific stuff to the respective SDOs.

Regards,
Gary

Your logic within your email is flawed and poorly written, and doesn't
support the conclusion you wrote. Please review what you wrote that I've
highlighted above near the top and tell me how you stated that this
information "~ ...has to include particular (identifying) information (for

Robert - you didn't read my email obviously as I stated many networks that
have this capability that NSIS *won't* be an appropriate QOS mechanism for
interfacing with if this is not included...

James,

As I said, it depends on how complicated you want the CT
to be. I thought we were supposed to see CT as a container
and not look into contents.
Ideally the two networks communicating with each other have
some clue about each other (either part of same admin domain,
and hence all capabilities are known, or different admin domain, 
in which case, roaming agreements might be needed).
Why should CT itself care about whether what it is carrying 
make sense to the newAR or not, it can, like any other signaling
protocol (NSIS as an example) carry a lot of opaque info.
At the most maybe a notification like what Rajeev proposed.
Going further than that you need to be careful not to get into
specific feature issues.

BR,
Madjid

Madjid,

The issue isn't reliability, it is whether the target AR can interpret
the context intelligably. If not, the MN may need to recover by actually
re-initializing whatever feature the context was being transfered for.
But it cannot do this unless it knows that the CT has failed.

For some feature contexts, like header compression, this isn't a problem
because it will re-initialize automatically, but for AAA or QoS it
clearly will be.

all you have to do is to add a CT-NACK, 
please, look at our TEXT proposal.
We even have a CT-NACK for each feature.

Gary,

I agree about session establishment, but the fact remains that if
failure of a context transfer for some reason leaves the MN without any
indication that it should proceed to re-establish the feature, then the
MN can't know when it should redo signaling to set up its new state. We
faced this issue with BETH/FMIPv6 and the solution we found there was to
have routers on the border of a fast handover coverage area inform the
MN what handover algorithm was supported by routers in the other
coverage area. While I think this could be done for the cases involving
router configuration, such as where the next access router can't
interpret the context, I am not so sure about failure due to dynamic
conditions, such as that the router currently has all its Gold Class
service bandwidth allocated (a QoS failure).

In any event, I think there is need for some kind of signaling to
indicate to the MN that context transfer has failed and that the MN
needs to redo signaling to re-establish feature contexts.

James,

I think if the newAR does not have enough bandwidth for the MN,
there should not be a handover (that is why CAR needs to handle
capability issues as I said before).

I wonder in such a case, would it not be easier to just
redo QoS signaling based on some NSIS-like protocol.
We are not insisting on absolutely do CT until the end of
time, regardless of how many time it fails. The design
must be flexible enough to handle handover delays as much
as possible.

I must say that if you make a simple concept  such
as context transfer to be handled by a too complicate
protocol, people will not use it. So it is your choice.

I was not at the last IETF and the meeting minutes have
not been posted to the list, can you tell me when and
how the CT selection process is going to happen?

Regards,
Madjid

Gary,

I don't think the issue is having the MN re-create the context. Is is
allowing the MN to recover by re-running the actions that were necessary
to create the context in the first place, in the event the AR was unable
to interpret it.
Thus, for example, suppose that QoS context is transferred from old to
new AR, but new AR for some reason can't interpret it, perhaps there is
no bandwidth left or perhaps the new AR uses a different representation
for QoS context. The MN would need to be informed somehow so that it
could re-do its QoS signaling.

            jak

Gary,

I'd be happy with:

        o CT is impossible to do with new AR for some reason, perhaps
failure of a specific feature context,
            perhaps new AR is in a different administrative domain, etc.

        o New AR notifies MN that it must redo network admission to get
back up its state, i.e. go back to
            the initial state before it entered the network.

but I would rather have:

        o CT fails for a specific feature context.

        o New AR notifies MN that it must redo signaling for that
specific feature only.

I think 1) is unavoidable for cases such as when an MN goes from one
operator's domain to another, and the two have no business agreement
allowing CT between them. I think 2) would be nice to have to smooth
corner cases, such as new AR runs out of a particular QoS allocation.
But I am sensitive that 2) should be handled by the particular feature,
i.e. if CT fails to transfer session keys, then the specific AAA feature
context code could perform the notification.

            jak

First of all, it's not "my working group".  Second, I can list at least a
dozen wg's which someone at 
the IETF has stated should should not exist or will never be productive.
Many have
completed their work and the results are being put to practice. Minority
opinions abound in the IETF.
 
Second, perhaps you might actually identify the so called "capability" that
you refer too instead of
throwing petty invectives around. So far, all anyone has heard is a
suggestion for a new type of QoS,
which is not in the charter. The IETF has at least two wg's looking at QoS,
and they do not need another.
If pre-emption is so important, why not propose it to the Diff Serv wg?

At 04:01 PM 4/9/2002 -0400, you wrote: 




  This is a very different approach from SS7, UNI, SSCPS, GSM, UMTS, .... IP
is an 
internetworking protocol, and must work across many different networks. NSIS
should 
also work across all (predominant) networks. Given the alternative of
defining variants 
of the protocol for every network, it is often more productive to define a
generic capability, 
and leave the network specific stuff to the respective SDOs. 

Regards, 
Gary 


I really have no skin in this game and don't really care if you bury your
head in the sand about this -- it'll just force whoever wants this
capability to *not* look to NSIS for a solution. I was suggesting that this
be an option, not even mandatory to implement, and you shut the suggestion
down.... What you are doing is siding with the idealist engineering aspect
of this question, and not including any pragmatic or business aspects.... 

I've heard directly from several people that I respect within the IETF at
IETF meetings they themselves don't have a lot of faith in your WG producing
anything of substance, if anything at all..... you're proving them right to
me now

I have to admit that I did not follow the complete thread, but maybe it
helps to distinguish "preemption" from "priority".

The "priority" of a request can be encoded in the QoS specification, but
"preemption" capability (beyond packet preemption aka "drop" ;-), including
informing all participating entities, mandates a certain asynchronous
communication pattern, which must be taken into account when designing the
signalling protocol and thus, seems to belong to the requirements.

John,

It works for me. I do not see too many confirmations though. When the final
decision will be made?

Hi all,

It seems the most likely candidate for the interim meeting will be:

	Helsinki, May 21 - 23

Does this work for everybody?

Topics would include.

	1) Requirements
	2) Protocol Comparison 
	3) Framework Issues
	4) Relations to other work

thanks,
John

Martin:

 Could you expand upon your point for me. I do not understand
the tight relationship being assigned between (bearer traffic?)
pre-emption, and signalling semantics.

Hi all,

I've been informed that May 21 - 23 is not good for everyone.  The other
alternative would be to have the meeting June 3rd - 6th in Helsinki.

Please let me know if this is a problem for anyone, I hope to finalize the
meeting this week.

John

James,

I understand the discussion in IEPREP.  The current system in the PSTN
uses the priority bits in the SS7 signaling messages to ensure a better
call completion rate, it doesn't attempt pre-emption.

In many GSM networks, an emergency call (911 or 112) will generally 
clear a radio channel, if all radio channels are full.

However, with regards to NSIS, I am not sure what you asking for.
I can see the following possibilities (not that I am saying NSIS should
do them):

	1) Set a bit in signaling message to indicate priority
	2) define a state machine on how to handle this bit
	3) define rules for handling this bit
	4) define default behaviors
	5) nothing

What is it that you see is needed?  Is this something that should
be handled in the requirements, in the framework or in the
protocol?  How do we handle differing requirements due to local
regulation?  Does IEPREP have a documented recommendation for this?

John

Hi Gary,

I don't think that CT/CARD should be involved with service (re)negotiation
either.

There may be need for some text about this, when we get into framework
issues, so having some text in the form of a draft always helps (its
either than picking through emails from the mailing list).

I think that this could be discussed in the framework, if we go that way.

John

yes, I see QoS paramters (service definitions out of scope for NSIS)

we require that the placment of QoS controllers and Initiators MUST be 
possible where ever you want.

It might be obivous not to do, but someone could have the idea to design
e.g. the following signalling protocol:

1) initiator sends QoS request and waits for confirmation (or reject)
2a) a network entity rejects the request and sends reject towards initiatior
2b) all network entities accept the request, so it arrives at remote end
3) remote end sends confirmation
4) transmission time (maybe including periodic state refresh)
5) initiator sends teardown (maybe through state timeout)
6) (optional) remote end sends tear confirmation

Then the initiator would never be prepared to handle an asynchronous tear
notification. If preemption capability shall be supported properly, however,
the initiator must be prepared to receive such a notification.

This is the most simple example that comes to my mind, of how preemption
capability might influence the communication pattern. There might be other
and more complex examples, depending on the rest of the requirements. Maybe
James can jump in clarify whether this captures his view.

Martin,

then you think a requirement for the support of asynchronous feedback is 
the way to go?

Anders, John,

I agree with you that it is a network issue, and that on a user to network 
interface pre-emption might not make sense. But does this hold as well for 
network oriented scenarios? E.g., we plane to add a scenario where Voice 
gateways signal for QoS (in an intra-domain case -> same administrative 
domain).

Does this also mean that pre-emption is not a signaling protocol issue? Or 
did we forgot about it?

Marcus

Maybe. I have no definite opinion about whether preemption capability may
have further implications. I just noticed that there seemed to be confusion
in the discussion because of overloaded terminology and wanted to help
sorting this out.

Martin,

You capture the point quite well: the type of QoS information being signalled has implications for the message sequences that the protocol needs to support, and these are then requirements for NSIS. 

We already tried (in minneapolis) to capture the basic request/response case (anders has written something on this i think), the intended essence of points (4) and (B) of the summary was that pre-emption implies some support for asynchronous notification as well, for the reasons you state. (does the summary miss something here or is it just not clear enough?)

I think there is currently a working assumption in (some parts of) the group that defining QoS classes/parameters is not part of the work of NSIS, but deciding how to signal them is. But I don't think that this is really captured as a concrete point anywhere (it is discussed in the #53 minutes, but on the other hand contradicts the charter, so it's not totally surprising that there might be some confusion).

I'm currently trying to write something that states this division and the implications more precisely. Actually, it relates to more than just message sequences (although that is the main point).

Martin:

  If I understand this example correctly, the issue is the relationship
between the state of the initiator and the arrival of asynchronous messages
that should change that state?

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; It might be obivous not to do, but someone =
could have the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; idea to design</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; e.g. the following signalling protocol:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 1) initiator sends QoS request and waits for =
confirmation (or reject)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 2a) a network entity rejects the request and =
sends reject </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; towards initiatior</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 2b) all network entities accept the request, so =
it arrives at </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; remote end</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 3) remote end sends confirmation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 4) transmission time (maybe including periodic =
state refresh)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 5) initiator sends teardown (maybe through =
state timeout)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; 6) (optional) remote end sends tear =
confirmation</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; Then the initiator would never be prepared to =
handle an </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; asynchronous tear</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; notification. If preemption capability shall be =
supported </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; properly, however,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; the initiator must be prepared to receive such =
a notification.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; This is the most simple example that comes to =
my mind, of how </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; preemption</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; capability might influence the communication =
pattern. There </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; might be other</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; and more complex examples, depending on the =
rest of the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; requirements. Maybe</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; James can jump in clarify whether this captures =
his view.</FONT>

Martin:

  Getting clearer to me. This would seem to be a state machine design
issue. One could define requirements that certain protocol events
were asynchronous, thus distinguishing them from the synchronous protocol
events, and require certain behaviours on the part of the communicating 
entities. In general, the normal assumption for the Internet is asynchronous
message, as ensuring synchronization (implying assured delivery, ordering, 
and no duplication) is often more complex (this is my perception, I am open
to correction on this). There are not many precedents for signalling in the
Internet.

  The other observation I would make is that the IETF does not specify
state machine behaviour, but rather protocol behaviour. Thus, the
requirement
for a message arrival at a node is usually an outcome at the node, and 
a (possible) response to the message. How the node effects the outcome and
generates the response is left to the node designer. Thus, in general,
one would not require that a state-machine be pre-empted by a protocol
event.

  Marcus was correct in his posting that there is confusion over the topic
here. Perhaps the confusion was mine, but my recollection is that this 
thread started with a discussion of "pre-emption" bits in NSIS to specify
flow
treatment. This issue with the protocol state machine is very different.

  My view, and this is just my view, is that specifying state-machine
pre-emption
is not the right requirement (in the IETF context). Rather, we should focus
on
the expected outcome of a protocol exchange and the dependence or
independence
of the sequencing of messages.

  Otherwise, I agree that it must be (and usually, btw, is) accounted for in
the protocol definition.

Regards,
Gary

Gary, what makes you say this? The state machine behaviour is part of 
protocol behavior. Protocol RFCs specify the behavior informally which 
makes it rather difficult to fully specify the state machine behavior 
more difficult than if the specs were in SDL. But that does not mean the 
state machine behavior is not or can not be specified.

Behcet:
   
   Can or should, the IETF does not specify state machine
behaviours. Certainly not to the level that details such as
pre-emption of that state machine can be identified. Regardless,
I may have focussed on the wrong model to make my point.
 
   There have been two debates raging here. To attempt to close 
the second debate, the one concerning asynchronous
pre-emption of the signalling itself, how about we agree that 
some messages will pre-empt ongoing operations, but that this 
outcome is an implicit result of the semantics of the message sequences, 
not dependent upon the existence of a pre-emption bit or field in a message
(note: I may be tying two different proposals together here,
but somehow one morphed into another, and I'm not clear where
one ends and the other begins).
 
  As far as I am concerned, the above is normal operation for
most protocols, including IETF protocols, and do not need to 
be expressed in an explicit requirement (e.g. many of the behaviours
of TCP could be defined as being pre-emptive).

Martin:

  Getting clearer to me. This would seem to be a state machine design
issue. One could define requirements that certain protocol events
were asynchronous, thus distinguishing them from the synchronous protocol
events, and require certain behaviours on the part of the communicating 
entities. In general, the normal assumption for the Internet is asynchronous
message, as ensuring synchronization (implying assured delivery, ordering, 
and no duplication) is often more complex (this is my perception, I am open
to correction on this). There are not many precedents for signalling in the
Internet.

  The other observation I would make is that the IETF does not specify
state machine behaviour, but rather protocol behaviour.

Gary, what makes you say this? The state machine behaviour is part of
protocol behavior. Protocol RFCs specify the behavior informally which makes
it rather difficult to fully specify the state machine behavior more
difficult than if the specs were in SDL. But that does not mean the state
machine behavior is not or can not be specified.



Thus, the requirement
for a message arrival at a node is usually an outcome at the node, and 
a (possible) response to the message. How the node effects the outcome and
generates the response is left to the node designer. Thus, in general,
one would not require that a state-machine be pre-empted by a protocol
event.

  Marcus was correct in his posting that there is confusion over the topic
here. Perhaps the confusion was mine, but my recollection is that this 
thread started with a discussion of "pre-emption" bits in NSIS to specify
flow
treatment. This issue with the protocol state machine is very different.

  My view, and this is just my view, is that specifying state-machine
pre-emption
is not the right requirement (in the IETF context). Rather, we should focus
on
the expected outcome of a protocol exchange and the dependence or
independence
of the sequencing of messages.

  Otherwise, I agree that it must be (and usually, btw, is) accounted for in
the protocol definition.

Regards,
Gary

Hi Georgios,

I am not against it, although I think the wording although covers the case
of an end-host. Let's change it for clarity though.

Sven.

Hi Sven

I agree with you, on introducing the term "QoS Receiver", however,
I would very much appreciate if
the sentence:
 "QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside
  a QoS ..."

is changed into:

""QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at an end host, an edge of
  or inside a QoS ..."

Best Regards,
Georgios

Subject: [NSIS] proposals related to NSIS WG draft


Hi all,

As an outcome of this morning's NSIS meeting, we propose the following
detailed additions to the WG draft.

1. Terminology

- QoS Controller: Network entity responsible for interpreting and
implementing the signaled QoS in the network. Failure to do so implies an
admission control decision. It can only be triggered by another NSIS entity
of the same instance (a QoS Initiator or another QoS Controller).

- QoS Receiver: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside a QoS
domain, responsible for terminating an instance of an NSIS protocol. It has
the additional functionality that it may initiate an acknowledgment towards
the QI and that it may trigger another NSIS entity (QoS Initiator or QoS
Controller of another instance of the NSIS protocol)

- QoS Initiator: Network entity, located at the edge of or inside a QoS
domain, responsible for initiating an instance of an NSIS QoS signaling
protocol. It may be triggered by the application layer, by the termination
of a local QoS signaling mechanism (possibly another instance of NSIS
signaling) or by a QoS Controller of another of a client instance of an
NSIS
protocol. It provides a mapping between the QoS parameters contained in the
trigger and the QoS parameters in the instance of the NSIS protocol for
which is serves as QoS Initiator.

2. Use cases/scenarios: 2 are available from the draft-buchli (sections 4.1
and 4.2)

3. Requirements

* New requirements
- in section MUST support priority
The priority of a flow is essentially decoupled from its QoS requirements.
Therefore the protocol MUST support priority. As a consequence, it MUST
support preemption of traffic flows in case of congestion or failure. A
preemption action MAY trigger an attempt to resetup the request by means of
another instance of an NSIS signaling protocol.

- in section 5.3: MAY support grouping of microflows (possibly only for
feedback)
As a consequence of the optimization for the interactive multimedia
services, the signaling should allow one unique request for several micro
flows having the same origination and destination IP addresses. This is
usually the case for multimedia SIP calls where the voice and video micro
flows follow the same path. This grouping of requests allows optimization
of
the QoS processing. Note that this may be detrimental for the call setup
time. The use of grouping for microflows may be restricted to teardown
and/or notification messages when call setup time is a concern.

- in section 5.5: Protocol content
The per-flow QoS requests are mapped onto the bandwidth pipe, which is
specified by an SLS. These pipes may provide statistical guarantees such as
delay and packet loss bounds (depending on the QoS class). In order to
invoke per-flow QoS services the only parameter needed is a required rate,
a
means to identify the data path (mapping on SLS) and eventually a
reservation identifier.

1) Microflow/reservation description
The signaling should allow the request to describe the microflow whose QoS
would be guaranteed by giving at least the source and destination IP
addresses of the media flow. In case the QC is stateful (per microflow)
there may be a need to include a unique reservation identifier (e.g. QI
identifier+counter) such that in case of e.g. a tear down message the
reservation can be easily identified in the QC.

2) Traffic descriptor
The required peak rate must be signaled. Optionally the traffic parameters
may be expressed in terms of token bucket parameters (similar to the TSpec
in RSVP).

- in section 5.10: Interworking with provisioning

* Requirements for which to change priority or formulation
- MUST support signalling to entities outside the data path (reformulation)

- MUST NOT be adversely impacted by mobility aspects (applicable for
end-to-end)
A QoS controller in an end-to-end instance of an NSIS protocol MUST NOT be
adversely affected by mobility issues. Any mobility scenario should be
tackled by other uses of an NSIS protocol and is outside the realm of an
end-to-end application of the NSIS protocol.

Related to the issue of preemption, a group of us discussed the issue of
reservation lifetime while in Minneapolis. Our conclusion was that this
could be done transparently by building it into the service description
which is carried by, but not visible to, NSIS. Reservation lifetime would
only be seen in a service specific field which is part of the service
description and transparent to NSIS. 

It seems to me that while pre-emption is a different concern than
reservation lifetime, it still can be supported in the same way. The only
requirement that seems necessary is that NSIS must support the ability of a
QOS controller to release an existing connection. Specific cause codes would
be specific to the service and are out of scope and transparent to NSIS.

Comments?

Marco

Robert, 

I am in complete agreement with what you say below and in particular I think
that we document these non-requirements in an ongoing basis to show how the
NSIS protocol transparently supports them.

Since we planned all along for a May date, I hope we will stick with what
you proposed. I made other committments for June in anticipation of

Hello Martin,

> 1) initiator sends QoS request and waits for confirmation (or reject)

For my clarification: the initiator signals to all units in parallel?
If no, then sequential signaling is applied. In the case of 
sequential signaling, a tear down of one network entity ends the 
reservation (tear down is propagated uplink, no further action 
downlink, all messages are synchronus).
If your scenario only holds for parallel signaling, then it's a 
special case, not a general requirement. I'd have more comments on 
parallel signalling (which are not related to pre-emption) and would 
like to ask for confirmation that that's what you are suggesting.

Do you see a case for it?  I think that it is a network /
service issue actually.   For a provider who is providing
mostly secure data transport & selling extra capacity
for voice, the provider may wish to protect the data
traffic (imagine some sort of financial services data)
and the voice is secondary ....

In my opinion, the service should be able to mark traffic
and set policy.  I'm not sure if this is a direct signaling
protocol issue, but more about how the services is provisioned
/ provided.

John

Hi all,

It seems that the best choice of dates for the interim meeting are:

	DATE: May 21 - 23
	Place: Helsinki, Finland

I will start checking into local hotels, to see if we can get a special
rate.

thanks,
John

Marco,

I fully support your position. Honestly, I was a little bit surprised by the
intensity of this discussion and how much time it has taken. I still do not
understand what exactly James (Polk) wanted to see included in NSIS
requirements.

Ilya

Related to the issue of preemption, a group of us discussed the issue of
reservation lifetime while in Minneapolis. Our conclusion was that this
could be done transparently by building it into the service description
which is carried by, but not visible to, NSIS. Reservation lifetime would
only be seen in a service specific field which is part of the service
description and transparent to NSIS. 

It seems to me that while pre-emption is a different concern than
reservation lifetime, it still can be supported in the same way. The only
requirement that seems necessary is that NSIS must support the ability of a
QOS controller to release an existing connection. Specific cause codes would
be specific to the service and are out of scope and transparent to NSIS.

Comments?

Marco

John,

	Could you please post what the format of the interim meeting is to
be. I have an I-D hoping to submit next week, and would like to present
slides on it at the meeting.
Thanks.

Sharif.

Hi all,

It seems that the best choice of dates for the interim meeting are:

	DATE: May 21 - 23
	Place: Helsinki, Finland

I will start checking into local hotels, to see if we can get a special
rate.

thanks,
John

The dummy protocol above was not meant as suggestion at all, but just as a
very simplified (and probably unrealistic) example for illustration only. I
don't think that it makes sense to further discuss it.

Hi,

I have not been following this discussion closely, so sorry if this
has been brought up. My question is, if NSIS does not intend
to use refreshes and just add reservation lifetime as opaque info
to the NSIS messages, then inherent reliability mechanism that
RSVP was getting from refreshes is gone??

Did I miss something?

Regards,
Madjid

Marco,

I fully support your position. Honestly, I was a little bit surprised by the
intensity of this discussion and how much time it has taken. I still do not
understand what exactly James (Polk) wanted to see included in NSIS
requirements.

Ilya

Related to the issue of preemption, a group of us discussed the issue of
reservation lifetime while in Minneapolis. Our conclusion was that this
could be done transparently by building it into the service description
which is carried by, but not visible to, NSIS. Reservation lifetime would
only be seen in a service specific field which is part of the service
description and transparent to NSIS. 

It seems to me that while pre-emption is a different concern than
reservation lifetime, it still can be supported in the same way. The only
requirement that seems necessary is that NSIS must support the ability of a
QOS controller to release an existing connection. Specific cause codes would
be specific to the service and are out of scope and transparent to NSIS.

Comments?

Marco

I think we need to work on these 3 topics:

1) Requirements
2) Signaling Comparison
3) Framework

If people want to prepare some introductory material on the above
subjects (the more specific, the better) then that would be good.

Additionally, if anyone things that there is something that we should
also cover, then please suggest it.

thanks,
John

Madjid,

Reservation lifetime (applicable for soft reservations as well as hard
reservations) is not meant to replace the refreshes that are needed for the
soft state based reservations.

John,

	I actually have a solution for the signaling protocol. I wanted to
present it to the people, and get some feedback. I am planning to start
simulations about now, so I was hoping to incorporate changes based to
suggestions I get back.
I will let you know the title of the topic next week.

Sharif.

Hi Sharif,

I think we need to work on these 3 topics:

1) Requirements
2) Signaling Comparison
3) Framework

If people want to prepare some introductory material on the above
subjects (the more specific, the better) then that would be good.

Additionally, if anyone things that there is something that we should
also cover, then please suggest it.

thanks,
John

WGdraf t)


Related to the issue of preemption, a group of us discussed the issue of
reservation lifetime while in Minneapolis. Our conclusion was that this
could be done transparently by building it into the service description
which is carried by, but not visible to, NSIS. Reservation lifetime would
only be seen in a service specific field which is part of the service
description and transparent to NSIS. 

It seems to me that while pre-emption is a different concern than
reservation lifetime, it still can be supported in the same way. The only
requirement that seems necessary is that NSIS must support the ability of a
QOS controller to release an existing connection. Specific cause codes would
be specific to the service and are out of scope and transparent to NSIS.

Comments?

Marco

Dear NSIS WG,

I have just now submitted a new version of the reqirements draft.
It is meant to be an intermediate version to give you an impression of what 
has been going on in the last weeks.

Major changes include
- restructured the draft
- added an extensive list of open and closed isues, coming from
  various places.
    -please check them whether is something miosssing from the issues side
    -some have volunteered to help with some of the issue (see the mail
     "home work" addressed to those)
    -some of the closed issues can be used as a change log
- I currently see the following three areas, which are not covered
   - interaction with mobility and running signaling
     in mobile environements
   - security issues
   - fault handling issues

- I am sorry, I am not able to put the thing on a web-page for those, which 
can not wait and want to work over the weekend :-)

First, the interim meeting will be for discussing current drafts, so
if you want to discuss this, then it needs to be documented in a draft.

Second, I'm a little hesitant to start discussing solutions.  It is too
early, as we are still discussing requirements.  

best regards,
John

--NextPart

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Requirements for QoS Signaling Protocols
	Author(s)	: M. Brunner
	Filename	: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt
	Pages		: 47
	Date		: 12-Apr-02
	
This document defines requirements for signaling QoS across
different network environments. To achieve wide applicability of the
requirements, the starting point is a diverse set of scenarios/use
cases concerning various types of networks and application
interactions.  We also provide an outline structure for the problem,
including QoS related terminology. Taken with the scenarios, this
allows us to focus more precisely on which parts of the overall QoS
problem needs to be solved. We present the assumptions and the
aspects not considered within scope before listing the requirements
grouped according to areas such as architecture and design goals,
signaling flows, layering, performance, flexibility, security, and
mobility.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

If you can re-format it & send me a copy, I can provide

I have to publicly appologize that I forgot to acknowledge the work of a set of
people. I just forgot it in a hurry. 

Mainly, Sven and his draft authors (draft-bucheli-...) I forgot. 

Sorry again and I will include you in the next version.

I was wondering if there was an I-D on the framework signaling architecture
at this time?

Hi Sharif,

There are some individual submissions.  I'd like (at least) in the
interim meeting to discuss these & see how to move forward on the
draft.

Hi Marcus

Some time ago I have sent a comment on the 
text related to scalability.
It relates to the Open issue (11) that has been proposed 
by Anders Bergsten to replace the scalability requirements.

In that e-mail I proposed to replace the sentence:
" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) on devices .."

into:

" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) and the number of reservation states
on devices .."

This is not shown in the current version of the NSIS WG draft.

In my opinion the number of reservation states impacts much more severely
the network performance compared to the 
impact of the load (on a node) on network performance!

Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi Anders

Sorry for the delay on sending this reply.
Regarding your proposal on scalability.
Actually I agree, but I would very much appreciate if you could 
change the following sentence:
" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) on devices .."

into:

" to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth 
consumption and signaling intensity) and the number of reservation states
on devices .."

Best Regards,
Georgios

Subject: [NSIS] proposal to add requirement text


All,
 
off line discussions revealed that the scalability sections (5.6) could be slightly updated. 
 
I suggest wording along these lines: 
 
The nsis architecture should give the ability to constrain the load (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth consumption and signaling intensity) on devices where it is needed. This can be achieved by many different methods, for example message aggregation, by ignoring signaling message, header compression or minimizing functionality. The architecture may choose any of these methods as long as the requirement is met. 
 
(the reasoning behind the words are the following, if I have the ability to control the load the protocol(s) generate in a singel device, the protocol will "scale". And the words does not mandate any particular solution)
 
A related requirement that was discussed was transport quality for the signaling protocol where I propose the following text. 
 
The nsis architecture should allow the network operator to assign the nsis protocol messages a certain transport quality. As signaling opens up for possible denial-of-service attacks, this requirement gives the network operator a mean, but also the obligation, to trade-off between signaling latency and the impact (from the signaling messages) on devices within his/her network. From protocol design this requirement states that the protocol messages should be detectable, at least where the control and assignment of the messages priority is done.   
 
Anders

Ilya,

Thanks for the respone and sorry for the delay. Are refreshes required then?
I must have missed it in the requirements?

Madjid,

Reservation lifetime (applicable for soft reservations as well as hard
reservations) is not meant to replace the refreshes that are needed for the
soft state based reservations.

Hi,

I have not been following this discussion closely, so sorry if this
has been brought up. My question is, if NSIS does not intend
to use refreshes and just add reservation lifetime as opaque info
to the NSIS messages, then inherent reliability mechanism that
RSVP was getting from refreshes is gone??

Did I miss something?

Regards,
Madjid

Marco,

I fully support your position. Honestly, I was a little bit surprised by the
intensity of this discussion and how much time it has taken. I still do not
understand what exactly James (Polk) wanted to see included in NSIS
requirements.

Ilya

Related to the issue of preemption, a group of us discussed the issue of
reservation lifetime while in Minneapolis. Our conclusion was that this
could be done transparently by building it into the service description
which is carried by, but not visible to, NSIS. Reservation lifetime would
only be seen in a service specific field which is part of the service
description and transparent to NSIS.

It seems to me that while pre-emption is a different concern than
reservation lifetime, it still can be supported in the same way. The only
requirement that seems necessary is that NSIS must support the ability of a
QOS controller to release an existing connection. Specific cause codes would
be specific to the service and are out of scope and transparent to NSIS.

Comments?

Marco

Hi Madjid,

Refreshes, in my opinion, are much more of a solution, than
a requirement.

John

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (1) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (1):
------------

>   1) (OPEN) add Scenarios
>   Do we need to add, remove, or change the scenarios?
>   - added scenario on QoS signalling between PSTN gateways and
>   backbone routers

[GK] Agree with these additions. I would very much appreciate if you could 
[GK] add also the following scenario (Section 3.4 of 
[GK] draft-partain-nsis-requirements-00.txt):

   "QoS for Virtual Private Networks

   There are two types of L3 VPNs, distinguished by where the endpoints
   of the tunnels exist.  The endpoints of the tunnels may either be on
   the customer (CPE), or the provider equipment or
   provider edge (PE).

   Virtual Private networks are also likely to request bandwidth for
   Assured Forwarding style services in addition to the Expedited
   Forwarding services the PSTN GW are likely to use."
------------



Best regards,
Georgios

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (2) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (2):


> 2) (OPEN) Sender/receiver initiation
>    What is the requirement concerning data sender or data receiver or
>    both to initiate a QoS request.
>    - does it matter who pays?
>    - terminology text added

[GK] both should be possible but it should be optimized for sender initiated;

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (8) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (8):

>    8) (OPEN) bi-directional data path setup with one QoS request
>    I have not seen consensus on whether to require bi-directional data
>    path setup with QoS.
>    - How can we actually perform bi-directional reservations when the

[GK] The bi-directional data path setup does not need to use the same 
[GK] return path as the forwarding path. The only requirement to achieve
[GK] a bi-directional reservation is that the sender for the forwarding path
[GK] is also the receiver for the return path and that the receiver for the 
[GK] forwarding path is also the sender for the return path.
[GK] Therefore, I think that the bi-directional option should not be mandatory
[GK] but at least optional;

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (12) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (12):

>   12) (CLOSED) text replacing scalability reqs
>   "The nsis architecture should give the ability to constrain the load
>   (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth consumption and
>   signaling intensity) on devices where it is needed. This can be

>   Editor: added the above text, but did not remove scalability reqs

[GK] If the text will have to replace the scalability requirements,
[GK] then in my opinion it should be slightly modified by adding the words 
[GK] "and the number of reservation states". The text becomes then:

     "The nsis architecture should give the ability to constrain the load
     (CPU load, memory space, signaling bandwidth consumption and
      signaling intensity) and the number of reservation states on devices 
      where it is needed. This can be
      achieved by many different methods, for example message aggregation,
      by ignoring signaling message, header compression or minimizing
      functionality. The architecture may choose any of these methods as
      long as the requirement is met."

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (34) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (34):

>   34) (OPEN)difference between "UMTS access scenario" "cellular
>   network scenario", and "Wired part of wireless network" (Section
>   8.2, 8.3, and 8.4)

[GK] The only common point between the three scenarios is that they are 
[GK] related to cellular networks. Section 8.4 is introducing the scenario used 
[GK] in the radio access network of cellular networks. Sections 8.2 and Section
[GK] 8.3 are discussing other parts of the cellular network.
[GK] Therefore, I propose that all scenarios should be kept!


Best regards,
Georgios

[GK] I think that this requirement is useful in some scenarios.
[GK] I would not restrict it to teardown and/or notification, it might be
[GK] useful also for the procedure that refreshes reservation states.

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (35) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (35):

>   35) (OPEN) difference between the two PSTN gateway scenarios
>   (Section 8.8 and 8.9)
>   currently both are included
>   what are the essential issues?

[GK] From what I understood Section 8.9 is discussing a specific PSTN gateway 
[GK] scenario that uses Media Gateway Controllers. Section 8.8 does not do that.
[GK] Therefore, I propose that both scenarios should be kept!



Best regards,
Georgios

Comment on Issue (53):

[GK] I propose that both types of errors (recoverable, unrecoverable) 
[GK] should be explained and included in Section 5.3.4. 
>   3) what does this mean for different parts of the network

[GK] Any QoS Controller should be able to notify these errors to the QoS 
[GK] Initiator.

[GK] It is not hop by hop, but QoS controller to QoS initiator;

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (55) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

[GK] This requirement is related to the ability of exchanging local 
[GK]QoS information between QoS controllers located at the boundary of 
[GK] one single domain. This requirement could be combined with Section 5.5.2.
[GK] Therefore I propose to add this requirement, with some changes:


   "The QoS signalling protocol must be able to exchange local QoS
   information between QoS controllers located at boundaries of one single
   domain. Local QoS information might, for
   example, be IP addresses, severe congestion notification,
   notification of successful or erroneous processing of QoS signalling
   messages at one border node.
   In some domains, the NSIS QoS signalling protocol MAY carry
   identification of the QoS controllers located at the boundaries 
   of a domain. However, the identification of  should not be
   visible to the end host (QoS initiator) and only applies within one QoS
   administrative domain."

Best regards,
Georgios

Comment on Issue (57):

[GK] This requirement is related to the performance of the interior nodes,
[GK] i.e., nodes located within a domain. we could change the title into:
[GK] "Minimal impact on interior (core) nodes"

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (56) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (56):
Issue (56)
>   56) (CLOSED) add req 5.3.1.3 of draft-partain-..-00
>   -already added a req to the scalability section (issue ???), which
>   has been provided by Anders

[GK] The proposal of Anders covers partially this requirement. 
[GK] I propose to enlarge it.

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (58) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (58):


>   58) (CLOSED) add req 5.3.2 from draft-partain-...-00
>   - the fast establishment req is handled by the low setup latency
>   req, and the scalability in handover req
>   - added the text to the teminal mobility scenario

[GK] Agree that the fast reservations is partially included in the 
[GK] Section 5.6.6. However, the word handover is missing from Section 5.6.6.
[GK] Please add the word handover in the text: "time scale (e.g., handover in
[GK] mobile environments), "




Best regards,
Georgios

Hi Marcus

Please receive my comments on Issue (59) included in the 
NSIS WG draft: draft-ietf-nsis-req-01.txt

Comment on Issue (59):


>   59) (OPEN) add req: ability to deal with severe congestion (req
>   5.3.4 of draft-partain-..-00
>   issues are:
>   - the use in highly utilized networks

>   point of view this is failure
>   - hop by hop problem (issue from Jorge)

[GK] I think that this requirement is somehow related to failure recovery, 
[GK] but is not the same. It occurs in a highly utilised network and 
[GK] if it is not solved very fast then the network performance will 
[GK] quickly collapse;
[GK] I propose to include it as a separate QoS requirement;



Best regards,
Georgios

[GK] Sorry, Marcus but I could not find this requirement in the 01 version

I'm not so sure this is within out charter.  I think we need more justification
before adding this to the draft.

I think that SHOULD is the right level of requirement for sender / reciever
driven requests.

Perhaps 'Bi-directional QoS requests MAY be possible' is enough.

I think that your text goes beyond what we can document.  The NSIS 
'architecture' (I prefer) framework, cannot talk about header compression,
etc. - that is definately out of scope for NSIS.

John, 

As the original author of the text I would like to comment:

(this was the original text)

The text mearly tries to state that the "framework" should give the ability to constrain "load". Then it _examplifies_ this with three different methods. This is doen to give some clarity to the requirement. Whether or not the examples stay or not is not my major concern, you can choose. However sometimes examples are good.

Hi John

From the discussions that we have had until now 
within the NSIS WG,
I can conclude that we should develop a NSIS protocol
that is optimized to be sender initiated and unicast.
However, a receiver initiated version could 
be optionally developed.

Best regards,
Georgios

I think that SHOULD is the right level of requirement for sender / reciever
driven requests.

Hi John 

Yes, I agree the bi-directional requirement is an optional requirement!

Perhaps 'Bi-directional QoS requests MAY be possible' is enough.

Hi John 

My main comment was related to the addition of 
the words "number of reservation states" and that is 
within the scope of NSIS.

Regarding the header compression text; it was an example used by Anders.

Best Regards,
Georgios

I think that your text goes beyond what we can document.  The NSIS 
'architecture' (I prefer) framework, cannot talk about header compression,
etc. - that is definately out of scope for NSIS.

Hi:
=20
I received some comments privately that the text in Section 3.3.2 of =
draft-ietf-mobileip-qos-requirements-02.txt, is not clear enough. In =
response to that, I propose the following modification to this text. =
Please let me know if you have any comments, else I will go ahead and =
incorporate it in the next version (03) of the draft.

Thanks,

2. Interactions with link-layer support for QoS:
=20
The QoS mechanism MAY provide some information to the link layers for =
them to support the required QoS. Since a vast number of devices using =
Mobile IP will be connected to the Internet via wireless links, QoS =
parameters relevant for wireless links, such as error rate, MAY have to =
be included in the set of IP-level QoS parameters to be possibly =
considered by the underlying link layer.
=20
An example scenario will be two UDP streams requiring different levels =
of error protection at the link layer. For such cases, an IP-layer QoS =
mechanism may indicate some generic parameters such as acceptable IP =
packet loss rate to link layers.

2. Interactions with wireless link-layer support for QoS:
=20
Since a vast number of devices using Mobile IP will be connected to the =
Internet via wireless links, the QoS mechanism for Mobile IP MAY provide =
some information to the wireless link layers for them to support the =
required QoS.=20
  =20
An example scenario that may benefit from such information is that of =
the two UDP streams associated with the same media, but requiring =
different levels of error protection at the wireless link layer due to =
certain characteristics of their respective encoding schemes. The =
packets of these two streams are equally delay sensitive (so as to =
maintain playout synchronization at the receiver), and hence, may be =
treated equally (as regards queuing) by IP layer. But they may need to =
be transmitted on wireless channels of different error =
characteristics(say different FEC coding or power levels).
  =20
The QoS information included for the benefit of wireless link layers =
SHOULD be such that it is meaningful both ways: to applications that =
reside over IP so that they can choose the IP service of certain QoS =
characteristics and to wireless link QoS managers so that they can then =
map this information to the details of lower layer mechanisms and their =
parameters.
=20
In the example scenario described above, such a QoS information could be =
expressed as the acceptable loss rate of IP packets in the UDP stream. =
This parameter enables the UDP application to choose the IP service =
having QoS that matches its requirements, and it also enables the =
wireless link QoS managers to choose the right wireless channel to =
transmit the packets of this UDP stream.

I agree.  

	SHOULD support sender initiated
	MAY support reciever initiated

	MUST support unicast
	MAY support multicast.

OK, the complaint I had was this:

	The architecture may choose any of these methods as
	long as the requirement is met.

I'd change it to be:

	Systems may use some of the above methods to meet
	the requirement, but how this is done is outside the
	scope of this document.

I agree.  

	SHOULD support sender initiated
	MAY support reciever initiated

	MUST support unicast
	MAY support multicast.

Dear Comrades,

Some of us have already expressed a keen interest in creating an active
Wireless Diffserv Majordomo Discussion List that will concentrate on
technical issues pertaining to Diffserv over wireless links (such as
modeling & performance analysis, implementation, etc.) which is
otherwise compatible to Diffserv standards. Are the contents well
addressed in any already existing list? Any more suggestions regarding
scope, how the list should be organised, etc.

Brian & other fellows: thanks for your support.

P.S. Sorry if this email disturbs you in any way. Thanks.

Thanks for your support & feedback,
Amoakoh

Reliablility is reliability.  Refreshes can be used to achieve reliability, so therefor

Dr. Daniel Rudman, MD,
New England Journal of Medicine.
 
"Within four months, my body fat decreased
 form 30% down to 21%! I noticed my skin
 is more supple and my overall mental
 outlook improved significantly."
 D.W., New Jersey

now, and besides the tremendous energy we
both feel, my husbands allergies and spells
of depression have lifted. I am healing
